Bizarre little album on HäpnaBut I agree with the Tinymixtapes review, it's got so few memorable moments, dunno why.
Methinks it's one of the best indie albums this year..
Such a beautiful one, this closer track
You know what's wrong about me? I tend to stay away from popular & hyped stuff. Although this instinct has successfully guided me in the music industry since teenage years, every year there's one or two albums that I can't listen because of this subconscious urge. Luckily this time I resisted that urge and listened to the Broadcast album. It would have been in Top 10, had I begun listening earlier.
Congrats to BurialBoomkat's Top 100 chart and also Kode9Hyperdub crew for giving us 2 groundbreakers in a year.

Pleasant folk songs for easy listening
Virtually non-existant in all top lists of 2006, but why? This is the most accessible FrithIntakt.
Out on one of my favourite labels from the North, Rune Grammofon, that gave us Alog, BiosphereJazzkammer
