    Getting a little bored of listening to the same music while I work, what can you recommend based on the list below? 😀

    Massive Attack, Alt+J, The XX, DJ Shadow, Goldfrapp, Mr Scruff, Radiohead, Yppah, Zero 7, and Sigur Ros.

    Have you listened to any of the solo Thom Yorke or Atoms for Peace? If you like DJ Shadow then I think you might like J Dilla, check out his album Donuts for a masterpiece in hiphop/samples/plunderphonics.

    If you like Massive Attack, Shadow and Zero 7, Nujabes should be right up your clearly very chilled street:

    Yeah, love The Eraser, will need to check out Atoms for Peace and J Dilla.

    Rammstein

    I feel like that would result in some very angry emails to clients… I do like them when working out though!

    Will definitely give the others a try. Love Sonos, but the problem with it is that you don’t get any artist radio or recommendations when using Spotify through it.

    I am loving some of the Funk Ferret mixes on Soundcloud at the moment, well worth a listen!

    Amen Dunes, The Holydrug Couple, White Fence, Ty Segall and Sic Alps are all recent or active right now musicians I’ve enjoyed…

    File under fuzzy rock psych rather my other ‘more difficult’ tastes.
