Spectre. Atmospheric early-90s West Coast instrumental hip hop, from the RZA-Premier school of thought.
do you know any of the other stuff on the Wordsound label? The album 'Return of Kill Dog E' by Scotty Hard is like the hip-hop equivalent of a dirty rucksack filled with gravel and blood.

Really liking Necrodeathmort. Read about them in one of them free music papers you get in trendy areas of urban regeneration with a boho vibe and took a punt on the album...

Eliane Radigue (look it up on the internets if you're interested.) (which you're probably not.) (never mind.)

Eliane Radigue
I find Eliane Radigue a bit boring. Olivia Block too. But then I'm not really into drone music much. Or rather, I like drone music to have a sense of the ridiculous, or the out of contraol, to it, as it does with a lot of Noise music.
If you like Eliane Radigue then you might like my friend Helena Gough though. Her music's ace.

More bass, vicar?

they've been around a little while and kept their heads down before they were ready to match the hype; so few English bands do that
i had them booked at the start of the year and they pulled; now I've no chance

I thought you would've mentioned Alela Diane in there somewhere, best voice I've heard in a long time.
more Earth - especially Bees Made Honey...
also, more recent Sunn O))) stuff.
Or if you like it more stoner, go for Sleep - Dopesmoker, stuff by Om...
Can I suggest Isis as well or is that too towards metal?
Electric Wizard - good Dorset boys
can I recommend Fu Manchu, on a similar but slightly less sludgy tip. Also, The Heads

I've just rediscovered 'The show is in the Rainbow' by finding a CD I bought at a gig and never actually listened too as I lost it or something. This is therefore technically a new discovery, just delayed by about 3 years...

Thinks she is a flower to be looked at
Got some EPs by Jesca Hoop and Lanterns on the Lake which I am liking very much.
Hadn't come across Rachel Yamagata until late last year, enjoyed a few songs on that album but her new one released not long ago has a duet with Ray LaMontagne, I love both of their voices so I'm looking forward to hearing it.

I love that album, I downloaded it after seeing it in the urban annual music chart thread, am really glad I did.
I am currently enjoying Bike For Three's "More Heart Than Brains".

My favourite recent discovery is Ray Rumours And The No-Eyed Dears, gorgeous indie folk from the ex bassist from Electrelane.
