Ok the list is finished, but there's so much more to be added to the list, hopefully I'll be reviewing them in 2007. Stuff from Koop, Ornette Coleman, Dosh, 17 Pictures, Asuna, Sierpinski, Annuals, Hella, I-Z, Skream, Svalastog, The Emperor Machine, White Magic, The Plants, Fin Fang Foom, KTL, Goldmund, Johann Johannsson, ISAN, Janek Schaefer, Oxford Collapse, Paul Wirkus, Dead Meadow, Wibutee all deserved more listens but I'm burnt. God, please stop making records for some time! We can't keep up anymore.
  1. J Dilla - Donuts
    2. R.I.P
  2. Joanna Newsom - Ys
    3. I simply didn't care about this young lady thanks to the (y'know what) hype. After I gave a listen though, I can tell you that it's the most romantic, poetic, lyrical album done by the freakiest of girls ever. Then you may ask what is it doing in your list, because if there's something I loathe in art it's romanticism and lyricismit's a special album (for romantic people).
  3. Kanka - Alert [past review]
  4. Koby Israelite - Orobas Book Of Angels Vol.4
  5. Kudu - Death Of The Party [past review]
    6. NY electro-funk-pop stylee
  6. Micah - Everything [soul seduction]
    7. a little gem on Herbert's Accidental label. Produced by the legendary Arto Lindsay. What's more Accidental is having a sale and giving you 3 CDs for 10 bux. Bargain.
  7. Nouvelle Vague - Bande A Part
    8. Such a high standard in covering songs, when everybody thinks they're doing something great by changing some shit here and there and releasing it as the next big thing, listen to their cover of Buzzcocks' 'Ever Fallen in Love'
  8. Otur - Pepperbox Hill [past review]
  9. Peaches - Impeach my Bush [past review]
  10. Porest - Tourrorists [past review]
    11. This is the bizarrest album of the year, this song is not giving the album a justice because there's no second song that's even remotely similar to another. Middle East & USA counter-culture audio terrorism plunderphonics etc.
  11. Tim Hecker - Harmony In Violet
    12. Tim Hecker's drone works specially well if you're writing essays & thesis.
  12. The Watery Graves of Portland - Caracas [Pop Matters]
  13. Tora Tora Big Band - Tora Tora [past review]
  14. Tunng - Comments of the inner chorus [past review]
  15. Under Byen - Af Somme Stof Stof [junkmedia]
    16. The first time I heard about Under Byen was a PR mail, and I now think it's one of the best of 2006. If you're into strange electronica with female vocals, you shouldn't miss it.
  16. Vetiver - To Find Me Gone
  17. White Mice - White Mice
    18. I'm not really a reggae guy more into the dubside of things or ska, but this album is on Basic Channel's Basic Replay label (respect) and it's got talent!. The song I've featured is totally infectious btw.
