Thus making it great music to... fall asleep to....

Yup, sounds like trance to me.

LWSD is an exception to this. he's kind of a maximalist as far as gear is concerned.

Dave is insane, kind of the exception that proves the rule though. He limits himself by refusing to limit himself almost. I don't think it's possible to hear a LWSD song that involves any less than 6 instruments. He really is a veritable one-man-band.

you can however browse their catalog online of their remain stock here:

boomtownrecords - Discogs Marketplace

although I believe wood only has about 2000 titles (of the 15,000 or so he has in storage) listed.

It has all the tricks & all the parts of EDM, but just lacks any kind of creativity behind it... something that sets him apart from the formula.

ditto... when bt played deadmau5... i was so disappointed even though seattle ate it all up.
when he threw up his laptop symphony part, i was the only one singing.
