I like Fly Pan Am, but I would say you are giving them too much credit to call Cabaret Voltaire "similar"...

True enough, though the description I quoted from the original question certainly fits them both.

Gastr Del Sol and Flying Saucer Attack both sound like what you're after, although I'm not a fan of either. I only liked parts of Fly Pan Am's first album anyway. You might also check out Twine Recorder or maybe some of the other bands on the Hefty Records 2-CD comp, Immediate Action. Or some of the acoustic/electronic hybrid stuff on Morr Music, like Manual.

this heat definitely and from what I remember of the last time I saw fly pan am live I'd say talking heads - fear of music.

oh nice. I saw them on tour with Do Make Say Think so many years ago and frankly even though they were the opener they kind of blew DMST away.

one year passes...

New record C'est ca is out today! Imo they should've cut the intro-track and just blasted right out of the gate w/ the second song, but that's my only complaint after first listen. It's surprisingly shoegazey!

Yeah I'm down with this! This is def a wildly cool record

This new one is incredible. I'm not sure what I was expecting from a 2019 Fly Pan Am record and I'm not sure this is it, but I'm knocked out by it. "Discreet Channeling" is tops.

Yeah that album is un futur classique
