I'm guessing that you caught that they were next to Blaine Reininger's "Night Air" on my list? :) Unfortunately, Telefon Tel Aviv have nothing to do with Tuxedomoon (that I'm aware of, at least). Telefon Tel Aviv is a duo specializing mostly in lush, glitchy music -- much in the same vein as the BT releases that kinda started this thread. Like BT, they get a lot of 'bread and butter' work submitting remixes of other artists work. They have a couple albums of their own over on Chicago's Hefty Records label. Both "Fahrenheit Fair Enough" and "Map of What is Effortless" are well worth giving a listen. The Remix disc I've been listening to gathers a lot of that remix work that they've done for acts like Nine Inch Nails and Bebel Gilberto. As with most good remixes, the new versions more resemble the remixer than the original group. BTW if you're interested in Tuxedomoon, that track I was asking about a couple of days ago was actually for a compilation of Tuxedomoon covers put together by the members of the fan list at Yahoogroups. I was surprised to find there's actually quite a lot of good quality material that came out of the submissions for it.
