As previously mentioned, I enjoy electronica quite a bit, even if it's not necessarily the most prevalent genre featured here. While electropop, a la Ladytron, is my first love, there's something very interesting about less traditionally structured music. Boards of Canada, while actually Scottish, has a cryptic, somewhat bizarre sound, with a rather substantial amount of references. Although it is perhaps an acquired taste, their work has been very well-received, going as far as to appear in Jaguar commercials, a la Spoon. (And fueling my esoteric puns, eh?)
Here's a rare live set they did at Warp10, their label's anniversary party. It was recorded on November 5th, 1999.
Enjoy:
