Burial, Untrue. The best late night soundscape EVER made.

Actually, thats his second. Burial (self titled) being the first. Both meet your description though and it's great to read it mentioned here. All his stuff is amazing. Check out Mirror/Ego Text 010 with Four Tet + Thom York. Wicked.

Love the sounds coming out of London at the moment. I second your opinion of James Blake and I have been a champion of the XX. Also check out Warpaint and Tame Impala: both are playing the Coachella Festival this weekend.

I started to write em down then read the list and you guy listed so.many great except The Blue Nile "Walk across the rooftops" one of.my 5 top lps of all time. Pistols, Clash, Eel's, etc.
