Some other glitchy/abstract electronic stuff I love (careful, most of it's not easy listening):
- Fennesz
- Aoki Takamasa (sounds like a Japanese Autechre)
- Pita
- Mika Vainio
- Pan Sonic
- Alva Noto
- Ryoki Ikeda (the most pure and hardcore glitchy shit you'll ever hear; pure data, beats/"melodies" made of high frequencies and low frequencies only; amazing shit, makes your entire body hurt!)
- Toshimaru Nakamura (I love this shit.. pure sine waves!)
- Sakamoto Hiromichi
- Vladislav Delay (highly reccomended!)
- Matmos (not all their stuff is glitchy but some of it is and it's quite brilliant)
- Tone Rec
- Neina (very Oval-like)
- So Takahashi
There's also a lot of great Japanese artists who mix pop vocals with glitch beats but I can't think of their names right now... EDIT: Okay, I found a few cd's I have in this style by someone named Tujiko Noriko... this shit is insane... full on glitch beats and cut-up ambient sounds, cd's skipping everywhere... with beautiful pop vocals and hooks... great shit.
You might like Bernhard Guenter, who mixes avant-garde minimalism with digital manipulations...
Carl Michael von Hausswolff has some good glitch/ambient stuff...
Also, Oren Ambarchi has explored a lot of digital minimalism, mixing glitch sounds with guitar drones on some releases. Brilliant stuff.
Let's not forget bands who mix glitch with shoegaze like Televise, Tim Hecker (who you'd LOVE if you like Fennesz), Opressed by the Line, Main, and Third Eye Foundation...
