For those of you that shared my excitement over Fragile a few months ago, he's got a new demo track up. Quite good!
"2 Soon"

Yep, good stuff. Hope he delivers the EP.

Not many ppl would know this song... but I'm listening to "love bug" by M-Flo featuring BoA. It's so addictive!
 
I knew a girl who couldn't listen to this symphony without getting a headache. The constant up-and-down modulation was too much for her.

halou nearly always reminds me of the game bloodlines, and there's one track in particular from their 2nd full length album wiser that sounds like one. maybe i'll do i side by side post at a later date

And I sometimes listen to it when I'm going to bed. Makes me enter a state of calm.
 
Throwing some electronic stuff to the mix:)

My Downfall by Venetian Snares is a great piece of post modern serious music, especially the way he combines digitally created symphonics with furious odd beats is simply mesmerizing!

and here My Half http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ld0iHQwrzj0

Endtroducing... by Dj Shadow is my favourite hip hop inspired record, here's
Midnight In A Perfect World, great moody song:

DJ Shadow's related project U.N.K.L.E. also came up with a lot of good stuff in its time, fine example is Be There:

To round it up to five, I'm adding Star Guitar by Chemical Brothers because the videoclip by Michel Gondry is just stunning, audio-visualization at its best:

Siddal finally put up some new tracks. They're off of their "Mystery and the Sea" release, which is probably my least favorite of their work, but I can't pass up the chance to give this duo a little love.

"Oil Spills" by Siddal
(The original mix was more guitar-oriented. I think the prominence of the piano and drums in this mix makes the song sound a bit like a funeral march. Still showcases Liz's vocals, which are a little slice of heaven. Supposedly, Liz used to wear a set of angel wings in concert--a little over the top, but nothing wrong with a little truth in advertising. ;) )

Some good atmospheres there!

I've listened to the "Untitled" first and it promptly brought back memories of some songs I haven't listened to for quite a long time. So, that's what I'm currently doing:).

Joy Division - The Eternal

The Cure - The Same Deep Water As You
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Yf6ieFJ32M

Esoteric - The Blood Of The Eyes (live)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S8NpORhPynE

Joy Division - Decades (my favourite by them)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Viq93GGpRHA

Bjork - Unison (my favourite by her, ending this post on a more cheerful note:))
