SK/UM - 'I Thagu Fallsins'
The best Icelandic electronica album since Worm Is Green? You bet.

Sylvain Chauveau - 'Un Autre Décembre'
makes simple melodies sound beautiful. Lisa Simpson said 'You have to listen to the notes she's NOT playing!' to which the guy replies 'I could do THAT at home!', which is true. So buy this, and listen to it at home.

Jaga Jazzist - 'The Stix' (Ninja Tune)
One of those 'collectives' of musicians with varying This, most emphatically, does NOT rock. It's like the opposite of rock. I don't know what the opposite of rock is. Scissors? So anyway, this is what arty folks describe as 'minimalist'. That means that fuck-all happens. It's all about space, Chauveau is a self-trained pianist who knows the value of restraint and how silence used in the right way numbers of musicians that appear randomly out of the ether to play tenor sax. So yeah, Norweigian jazz. But it's not beardy jazz, this is jazz like 'Standards'-era Tortoise being infected with a computer virus.
