Hey B.B.,
It's Andy K, your comrade from Five Word Stories. Just wondering about your list as I've been out of sync with what's what in the world of music for the past couple of years (long story but essentially due to location and a lack of interest in expanding my CD collection).
I was wondering whether any of the artists/albums you mentioned had any of the following traits:
1) World music (non-English or featuring non-English-speaking artists).
2) Not driven by electric guitars, bass and drums.
3) Predominantly mood based, where sounds rather than lyrics came to the fore.
4) Anything in the vein of Sigur Ros.
If you have the inclination, I'd appreciate your feedback.
Cheers.
