Boards
Patten
Because I tried to bump an old topic and it didnt happen.
stumbled across these today when digging in previous Kaleidoscope releases (they're both initially v. limited releases on http://www.k-is-for-kaleidoscope.com/*news.html). Two stashed-away previous albums:
http://patttten.bandcamp.com/album/there-were-horizons
http://patttten.bandcamp.com/album/sketching-the-tesseract
They're both beautiful, There Were Horizons in particular is so delicate and ornate a thing. Again Boards of Canada could be cited as an influence, but the songs seem more sedate here, happier to meander along.
also some other stuff:

Looking forward to copping a repress of his/their GLAQJO XAACSO too
Hey, yeah, he's good
In the Actress space I think (though more complex maybe, Actress is quite minimal.)
Don't know how far you are away from London, but he's playing at Camp Basement in January
