My list would be pretty boring cos I'd just pick an Autechre release for every year. Sad but true.

I think we're just talking about albums in this thread, in which case there are only 4 from 2000 to 2009.

I did 3/4 and then there's still the other 7 years to list an album from.

spokes is better than double figure

This is true, I don't really like double figure that much because it gets awfully cheesy/sappy in a bunch of places and its almost sickly sweet for me. Spokes on the other hand is a fantastically original and wonderfully bizarre work with a good amount of playfulness but none of it really sounds cheesy to me.

This is more than likely what i like about it different strokes for different folks :)
