i agree, adventures in foam is a very good album, but i don't think it lives up to the standards of his other work. but it's more fun and i like that.
i like black star liner also, as well as badmarsh/shri, nitin sawhney, tabla beat science, state of bengal, etc. etc... but i didn't want to overwhelm the original poster with too many suggestions.
cheers.
you've already received many great (and some not so great) recommendations, so i won't repeat them, but i would like to add AMON TOBIN to the list. in particular, his first album BRICOLAGE.
also, another great album that i don't think anyone's mentioned yet is the TIJUANA SESSIONS VOL. 1 by the NORTEC COLLECTIVE.
oh, and one more: ANOKHA: SOUNDZ OF THE ASIAN UNDERGROUND compiled by TALVIN SINGH.
strange, these suggestions have taken on an international feel (amon tobin is from brazil, nortec from mexico, and talvin singh india/london). that wasn't my intentional but so it is.
