Various Artists- Top 300 Space Disco Collection.

-This is addictive stuff! I don't know much about it- supposedly 70s Italian electronica, but possibly more recent, or recently remixed- anyway, its sort of Georgio Moroder Kraftwerk Daft Punk minimalist electro frothy fun.

The Implosion Quintet- The Future Sound of Yesterday.

-one guy in his bedroom, in Norway, natch, making gentle electronica that occasionally sounds like ye olde psychedelic rock entirely reconstructed from samples.

The Associates- Fourth Drawer Down.

-How brilliantly mad were The Associates? And to think this passed for Top 20 pop in the day.

Lene Lovich- Stateless.

-An overlooked LP- the missing link between Patti Smith and Sparks?

Felt- Forever Breathes The Lonely Word.

Denim- Back in Denim.

-Thanks for the prompt, Charlie!

Julian Cope- The Unruly Imagination.

Julian Cope- Black Sheep.

-So I put on 'unruly' and think, yeah, this is better than Black Sheep. Then I put on 'sheep' and think, no, this is by far the better LP- I can't choose! Julian, you are spoiling us!

Wolfmangler- Dwelling in a Dead Raven for the Glory of Crucified Wolves.

-Dipping my toe into the doom diaspora, I'm loving this! It's like Noggin The Nog meets The Exorcist! Any recommendations on other similar stuff I should explore?

And also:

The Warlocks- The Mirror Explodes.

The Faint- Fascination.

Field Music- Tones of Town.

The Star Spangles- Bazooka!!!

The Horrors- Primary Colours.

Stravinsky- Cantata: Mass: Requiem for Dylan Thomas.
