Department Of Eagles - The Cold Nose (2005)

This albums pretty odd. Mixing broken beats with acoustic american indie songwriting to form wierd but brilliant pop music, some of it even stretches completely left field into random noise experiments, but its all completely listenable and very addictive. This is a proper grower, shockingly eclectic and secretly magic. At first it will sound like a mess, but give it time and you'll soon wonder how you ever lived without it.

Marconi Union - Distance (2005)

Gorgeous, ambient chill out. Full of haunting melodies and beautiful melancholic noise. This one's hard to shake off. The perfect companion for ponderings on the back seat of the night bus. Down tempo enough to send you into a stupour but with enough pulse to keep you awake. Quality stuff.

Ulrich Schnauss - A Strangely Isolated Place (2004)

This is a gorgeous album. Full of post-rock ambience and epic crescendos of insanely beautiful noise. But all danceable. Some of the tracks have proper structured beats, some more down tempo chilled breaks. All of its incredible. Euphoric from start to finish, this sounds like if Sigur Ros started making dance music. But better.

Shape Of Broad Minds - Craft Of The Lost Art (2007)

This album somehow managed to slip under the radar last year, but its easily one of the best hip-hop releases in a long long time. This is the future sound of hip-hop; beautiful electronic soundscapes and erratic beats, hypnotic melodies and funky acid bass lines, with intelligent, flowing lyrics and themes. I haven't heard anything like it before and I doubt I will for at least ten years, its that far ahead of its time. It sounds like a moog in a washing machine. But good.

Dub Trio - Exploring The Dangers Of (2004)

With their 2004 debut, New York's Dub Trio presented an almost revolutionary take on dub, incorporating a far more 'live band' feel and energy to the music. Completely ignoring the dub purists bible with its progressive sound, often cascading into distortion and ambient synths with frequently changing time signatures and a willingness to delve into any genre.Worth getting just for the ambient beauty of the almost post rock 'Casting Out The Nines.' This is a stunning piece of work.
