Hypnotic

I was at the Boredoms' show in London the other week - without being ultra-familiar with their back catalogue, I fell in love with a couple of trancey, hypnotic songs they showcased at the end of their set. Reminded me very much of the mantra-like 'Push It Out' by the Beta Band, along, of course, with much Krautrock.

So, my question - what other things should I be checking out if I want more hypnotism in my music listening? Anything from drone to Krautrock to slowcore (and Galaxie 500 are on some days my favourite band of all time - check their version of 'Ceremony' for droned-out pop bliss) is welcome.

Anything by Thomas Brinkmann or Richie Hawtin. Particularly Brinkmann.
Khanate's 'Capture/Release' is doom metal, but fulfils the same function. Pulsing drones, notes left hanging in the air.
Most obvious is the last Liars album ('Drums Not Dead').

Damn, I love 'Push It Out'. If only it went on for the length of an entire CD.

Exactly my thoughts. I need more...

seek out anything and everything by the Necks (Aussie jazz trio whose albums consist of one 60-minute sonic meditation that touches upon new age, techno and ambient music)...absolutely mesmerizing...
