With the last of my emusic subscription today I downloaded Final Fantasy (classically inlfluenced, violin heavy),

That Final Fantasy album has really grown on me, and I really like it now.

In my CD player, it's "Writer's Block" by Peter, Björn and John
On my turntable, it's "Loveless" by My Bloody Valentine
The last thing I listened to on my MP3 player was "Wonderful Rainbow" by Lightning Bolt

My CD player only holds one disc and I have no iPod.  So it's Goldfrapp's new Album Supernature

Excellent choice! I have had Felt Mountain and Black Cherry both on heavy rotation since they first came out. I read a review of one of her LPs once where they likened her to "Kraftwerk with a clit". I think that may  have been what sparked my interets in Kraftwerk. I love Felt Mountain so much that we even bought the "revamped" box set which adds a few remixes and a short video showing some of her filming and video.

I've been listening to that one a bunch too,  and also the new one. I really, really dig the new one.

With the last of my emusic subscription today I downloaded Final Fantasy (classically inlfluenced, violin heavy),  Konono No.1 (mind blowing African grooves) and Lord Melody (CALYPSO!)

Konono are really great--especially live: they're really hypnotic.

hey i love battles! i must confess i have only heard  like 8 songs, but they are great! i used to listen a lot to bands like don caballero, oxes, dianogah etc. a few years ago.

[Stereordinary]

If you like Don Caballero, you should check out Chevreuil.  They're a French duo with the rawest sound I've ever heard.  Well, raw for a drummer and a guitar player with four Akai Headrushes.   :D

Black Monk Time- Monks

Proto-punk from the L.A. Velvet Underground.  Awesome stuff.

See the Monks on beat club and behold their AWESOMENESS!!!!

Black Monk Time- Monks

The Monks are amazing.  Have you ever heard their Five Upstart Americans album?  It's actually a compilation of their pre-album demos--the band's sound is not nearly as evolved as on Black Monk Time, but it's worth checking out!

I don't have it, but I wanna find a copy now!

Oh, and I was misinformed about where the Monks were from- they were five ex-GI's who stayed in Germany after their service.  So, they were the VU of the FDR!
