La Ritournelle - Sebastien Tellier

Such a beautiful track. The soaring string arrangement would make it worthy of an entry in this list on its own, but when you add in the lazy-funk drums and the whimsical, poetic lyrics this is an all out winner. Sebastien Tellier is, by all accounts, a little barmy and I find his music somewhat hit and miss, but some people are made for a purpose, and this song is his.

Ladies and gentlemen we are floating in space - Spirutualized [I think I’m in Love]

A symphonic trip through noise and melody. Touching, snarling and endlessly imaginative. Truly this is music for astronauts.

Lali Puna [Faking the books]

Lo-fi, downtempo, German electro pop. I only have a small collection of tracks from Lali Puna, but they keep me coming back, again and again. Beautiful suff.

PS - sorry for the loooong break
