His solo stuff really bugs me, gives repetition & 'beauty' a bad name.

I wish the Childisc CDs were being distributed over here. How can you not totally want to hear albums like these:
This one clearly has one the greatest album covers ever. And those titles!
This one looks good, too, duders!

this raises the question -- what musicians do you usually refer to on a first name basis:
EYE
?

haven't heard 'sign' -- have only heard 'scope' and saw the bottom of the hill show when he was playing the 'songbook' stuff live, and it was the bad kind of repetition for me. strict cut-n-paste repetition, absolute lack of surprise, these things can be virtues but you have to be in the mood for them
it's not like I have good taste, y'know, currently listening to Mike Oldfield Incantations side 4

funfair - this is a lot like scope but prettier. more rhythmic and reich-y, less glitchy (though still glitchy).
child & magic - this is the godhead. toy xylophones, animal noises, baby percussion instruments doing drum and bass, crazy loops and edits, japanese toddlers talking about sleep and death, glass pipes and chimes, etc.
reflection - errornormous world - ok this isn't takemura but it came out on his lollop label. it's treated guitar and drum machine. doing jazzy, abstract, floaty things. clear ringing tones, weird spectral licks that float away, spazzy organic drum machine. maybe it sounds like what a takemura remix of the last track of VCN would sound like. that's just how i'd describe it to other people, to me, it sounds like wake and bake feels.

Ok, having only heard Scope and the Child's View album, I had no idea this guy also did a whole album of speech-synthesizer vocal tracks ("10th") that I am really liking on first listen. Some novelty value for sure, but pretty accessible.
