Nowt to do with death or anything serious, but I absolutely must recommend an album I've just got: Untrue (http://www.metacritic.com/music/artists/burial/untrue) by Burial.
It's 'dubstep' apparently, though I've never come across it before. Basically if you like any of the following then it would be criminal not to check this out, it's amazing and seems to be getting fantastic reviews:
Orbital, Aphex Twin, Massive Attack, Autechre, Clint Mansell, The Field, Hybrid, Kraftwerk, Brian Eno.
It's somewhere in between drum & bass, ambient, R&B, dance...as all the reviews say it's very atmospheric, conjures up images of walking through a deserted city in the twilight hours, feeling like you're the only person on the planet surrounded by neon and concrete. Can't put it into words really, just have a listen if you're interested in intelligent electronic music. Archangel and Etched Headplates would be my recommended tracks so far.
