Both Lou and I really like your 3 part Blues piece. Everything from the arrangement to the clarity of the mix makes these tracks a must have.
Part 1 - darker than the others, tense, the hints of blues really adds to the tension since there's never a resolution just suggestions of a blues progression
Part 2 - another deep soundscape, nice work on the hi-hats. Are you doing the scratching? Sounds great! I like the 'Big Beat' feel on the drums. Part 2 sounds a bit more mysterious than the others.
Part 3 - woah, this one is HUGE! This one is my favorite of the 3. While the other two are excellent tunes, the arrangement on this one is quite powerful. This is quite a professional sounding tune - for some reason I'm feeling U2 would put out something like this. Bono's voice would work well over the top. Give him a call! 
I have an artist/album you should check out. He's done a great job of blending blues with beats and sampling. One of my favorites on the release is, "Tight Like That" - the artist is, "Little Axe" - here are links to listen to Little Axe at eMusic.com and at amazon.com - it's a sweet album.
Thank you for these tracks - excellent music.

Some lovely stuff here, it all sounds pristene which is always great. Gonna stick it on my iPod, be waiting for it to appear on random and go "oooh, what's this then?".

Hey Pete - had to take a listen to these tracks! Lovely artwork, the message is like in the road to NH17 - sweet.
Androids On NH17
Quite laidback feel, enjoy the filtered voices and flying high noises here. Very alien soundscape (love that!). The title of this track is spot on, thinking of what you get. Different, light/dark mood and typical SA. The way you use deep long reverbs always go home with me, that really adds to the tasteful atmospheres. Excellent track.
NH17 Blues Part 01
Pink Floydish start.. nice feel, chill. I can clearly hears the relation to the first with the voices. Nice change at 1:35, speedy rhythms. Good use of voices to create that special mood. Again, great track!
Textures
Eerie ambience which fits the slow progression rhythm. A rhythm pattern that is very much SA Fred. Good wide open space, as usual your Yamaha card delivers.
Custom Cyan Lapse
Great use of sound effects here, is this software or are you using the hard stuff? It's all about moods and spaces here, undefinable chords which are fitting well. I can hear dark frequency resonances from the long decay reverb.
NH17 Blues Pat 02
Harder sounds than on the Pt 1, but in the same chilly mood. Voices and scratches, cool and different. Love the rolling, delaying sounds in the back here. The bassdrum and bassline here really floats the track.
Loose Connection
Enjoyable bass portamento, Roland vintage sharp and bass does well and is muchly part of your trademark sound. Great LFO on pitch for background themes, very wise choice to stretch the pitch controlled LFO that far here, because it simply fits well. Phaser is perfect from 3:10 or so and out. I like the minimalism in use of sounds in the available frequency range, I've recently become very attracted to this kind of minimal sound. An excellent moody piece of work.
NH17 Mood Organ Mix
Good arpeg with your usual sweet analog sounds. Nice floaty organ that does the ambience of the track well. Talking voice is great here! The flute sound use at the end is simply perfect (beautiful) and very Vangelis.
NH17 Blues Part 03
Different blues from NH17 eh? :o)
Scanner Acid
Nice phaser sound on synth bass. Almost slow minimal techno in the SA way. Good rolling synth lines all over here. Excellent, again.
A very enjoyable time you've created for your listeners! More please!

Yeah loose connection is still my favorite even though I like the androids too. I like to play/dance to them on my mp4 watch at my job.
