Our top albums of 2011

Dillon - This Silence Kills (Bpitch Control)

A beautiful and haunting album that really made us stop for a second and listen. Not what we'd expect from Bpitch Control but to be honest I really like how supposed 'dance' or 'electronic' labels are really pushing the envelope on artist albums. Read the Vainzine review HERE.

Kreidler - Tank (Bureau B)

New German kids doing old school kraut-rock. It shouldn't work but it totally does.

John Tejada - Parabolas (Kompakt)

Drift away to the sounds of John Tejada, Kompakt as a label is up there as one of our favourites. A John Tejada album on Kompakt is a match made in heaven and does not disappoint. Floaty and melodic is all the right places.

Deadbeat - Drawn & Quartered (BLKRTZ)

Amazing dub-techno album that featured heavily on hazy days in the sun whilst in Croatia this year.

Kate Wax - Dust Collison (Border Community)

Weird and sparse sounds coming out of James Holden's Border Community imprint. A great example of new school nu-wave (if that's even a genre).
