Im enjoying some stuff from the likes of Pangaea, Joy Orbison, Four Tet and Martyn.

Some earlier DJ Krush is worth a listen, as is some early DJ Shadow stuff.

Fat Jon is also very good

Gillian Welch - Revelator is very nice - folky stuff with beautiful singing.

Portishead? Massive Attack?

Quite partial to a bit of arty farty Brian Eno myself though.

Renton, if you don't already have it, get Spotify. Perfect for punching in all the different suggestions before wasting money (or just time :roll:) downloading stuff you may not like ๐Ÿ™‚

Listen to Tom Middleton - The Trip II

Then, get any of the American Recordings series by Johnny Cash, and lose yourself in beautifulness.

if you like Editors then, although I don't wish to blow my own trumpet, or indeed even bang my own drums, I will anyway:

http://www.amazingtunes.com/users/thewickeffect - check out "Energy (acoustic version)" - it's a nice mellow number. just piano, voice & acoustic guitar
