Part 5 : 15 - 10

15 Battles - Mirrored (Warp Records) : Everybody's been talking about "Mirrored" this year, and they kind of deserve it for getting their oddtimed dissonant music to find strange acclaim from mainstream circles as well as mathheads. 14 Deejay OM - Reheated Naan and Curry (Galapagos4) : A fine hybrid of Indian samples mixed with beats. Somehow liked it much more than Madlib's take. Past review on undomondo. ēlöf Arnalds - Klara 13 ēlöf Arnalds - ViÄ° og viÄ° (12tónar) : Icelandic singer ēlöf Arnalds' acoustic folk deserves a government grant as we get more and more interested in Iceland after listening to her debut. 12 White Magic - Dark Stars (Drag City) : Frankly I'm an utter sucker for their haunting minimalist folk, hopefully more to come in 2008.Past review on undomondo 11 Alamaailman Vasarat - Maahan (Backstage Alliance) : Finnish weirdo prog-rockers Alamaailman Vasarat didn't fail to satisfy us with their 3rd album a highly versatile & wacky world music stuff. Circus music at its best.Past review on undomondo, The Armchair Critic review Luke Temple - Medicine 10 Luke Temple - Snowbeast (Millpond) : Brooklyn, NY based singer & songwriter Luke Temple's album is one of the best albums of the year, with hints of 70s psychedelia and melancholy, top quality singer songwriter pop. Past review on undomondo 09 Nostalgia 77 - Everything Under the Sun (Tru-Thoughts) : UK's finest nujazz troupe a with an impressive effort, and they didn't stop here and went for a second gold album as an octet. Past review on undomondo 08 Shellac - Excellent Italian Greyhound (Touch & Go) : Most critics didn't like this album compared to other Shellac releases, but nevertheless it's better than most of the stuff this year. Past review on undomondo. Pitchfork review Men-an-Tol - Orange Juice and Vodka 07 Men-an-Tol - Men-an-Tol (Static Caravan) : I've declared my love for bearded UK folkers Men-an-Tol a few times this year, can't wait for their debut album in 2008. Past review on undomondo 06 Fedayi Pacha - The 99 Names of Dub (Hammerbass) : Unnoticed by short sighted critics with the Burial syndrome, French dubster Fedayi Pacha's "The 99 Names of Dub" is the most diverse dub album this year as well as the most cranked for me.
