    Kleptones CD is a mash-up of Queen and some hip-hop samples.

    Four Tet is instrumental, like a DJ went mad with old school instruments like harps, etc.

    M83 is very electro instrumental, a lot of atari type sounds.

    Labradford is kind of a post-rock epic kind of movie soundtrack stuff.

    All pretty good, only the Arcade Fire stuff is really new.
    Thanks for the summary, Four Tet sounds quite interesting, so does Labradford. Is M83 really rythmic or is it kinda random like....shoot I can't remember the name now, the guy that does all the crazy old school sounds that you like, I listened to it a couple times in Simon L's car? Dangit. But anyway, if you know who i'm talking about, does it sound like that?

      I am listening tooo... Umm nothing. No stereo in the car... let alone an interior leads me to listen for weird engine problems. I do listen to club977 the 80's channel at home though.

          Yes! could NOT remember. I just couldn't quite get into that, all the intros and breakdowns were cool, but that's not enough to say you "like" it.

            I've been wanting to check out The Arcade Fire, I guess I'll have to get off my ass and do it. I have been listening to "Frances The Mute" by The Mars Volta... an amazing CD, more like listening to a movie than an album.

              M83 is like some Aphex Twin songs but much less random than their characteristic sound! I highly recommend them, can always download a few tracks.

                Ummm... been dragging out my old Pearl Jam lately, also listening to really old Queen. Just d/l'd the new Jimmy Eat World. But honestly, I'm listening to tons of stuff, that's just all I can think of right now.

                  Pitchfork Media (www.pitchforkmedia.com) released their top 50 CD's of the year just this week.

                  My favourite CD of the year (as previously mentioned, The Arcade Fire) unexpectedly was #1, so I highly recommend checking it out.

                  The Streets, A Grand Don't Come for Free (of which I know there are some fans on NVD, including myself) came in at #3.

                  Modest Mouse only hit #23 which is a bit of a let down, but I guess not surprising since they have kind of "sold out" since the old days.

                    Some very interesting titles on that last, some I like, some I dont and even a few I have never heard of, gives me something to do for a couple days I guess

                    Anyway I have to chime in with a new CD of mine it is called "Mute Print" by a group titled A Wilhelm Scream, it is emo punk hardcore with lots of crazy metal riffs and it is blowing my mind, I just got the disc yesterday and I think I have listened to it 7 times so far, I just love it!

                      It's cool to see Camera Obscura on that top 50 list... they are pretty cool... pretty mellow, but pretty cool.

                      My album de jour may seem kinda commercial, but honestly, it flows like nothing I've heard in a few years. Green Day: American Idiot. It's awesome... very operatic. I love how they deal with themes and how the music flows. They are also using some different instrumentation (for a punk band) like piano and glockenspiel.

                        That sounds like an album I NEED to purchase.
