thanks bra, I'll make sure to get you copies of all my other 2013 albums too (3 additional), but none of them are coming out until the last week of December, probably the worst possible time to market/promote a piece of music!

Arve Henriksen - Places Of Worship

Gastón Arévalo - Rollin Ballads

Perfume Advert - Tulpa

Simon Bainton - Visiting Tides

Illuha - Interstices

Haha, aside from a few votes for Deepchord and 1 for ASC, on my own again. May add another or change things around by the end of the year.

The scene cracks me up in it's self-seriousness but good on them for plugging along and releasing in December too. Enjoying this upon first listening...are these all different producers or just different aliases? I could only assume Ultrademon making many of these tracks.

Boards Of Canada - Tomorrow's Harvest

Pantha Du Prince & The Bell Laboratory - Elements Of Light (Is this an LP? Its only got 5 tracks but it is 40 minutes long)

Run The Jewels - Run The Jewels

Bibio - Silver Wilkinson

Darkside - Psychic

DJ Koze - Amygdala

Jessy Lanza - Pull My Hair Back

Jon Hopkins - Immunity

Letherette - Letherette

Machinedrum - Vapor City

Oneohtrix Point Never - R Plus Seven

Quasimoto - Yessir Whatever

Yeah both songs are from Celestial Lineage, but great release nonetheless.

If Cro magnox doesn't get album of the year then all hope is lost.

 

Not really though but it is the best album of the year just ahead of Exai i reckon 8-)
