Album Leaf - A Chorus of Storytellers
The latest album, as beautiful and chilled out electronic instrumental, with lush strings.

Do Make Say Think - The Other Truths
From the end of 2009, from the Constellation records school of canadian post rock. The catchy first track will get stuck in your brain.

Efterklang & The Danish National Chamber Orchestra - Performing Parades
A performance with The Danish National Chamber Orchestra, track for track, of their album “Parades”. Utterly amazing, one of my favourites out of the lot. Efterklangs usual dark, broody, glitchy electronica backed by a full orchestra.

Laura Marling - I Speak Because I Can
Sophomore record by young london anti-folker. A more mature record than her first, sounds a bit more classic english folk and less anti-folk. Good, but I need to give it a few more listens.

Salem - Yes I Smoke Crack
The first of two records gloriously described to me as crunkgaze. Dark electronic, shoegaze and dubstep inspired band based out of NYC, lazily described as a My Bloody Valentine in a club run by Lil Jon.

Sleigh Bells - Sleigh Bells
Part two of the crunkgaze set. Catchier and more pop than part 1, girl/boy duo where all the tracks are built around a catchy-as-fuck central beat. Already on the hype-train, but this is an awesome EP and my favourite of this bunch.
