Etre, Nicolas Jaar

Just flicking through my Napster library, and I'm assuming my brother downloaded this, but it's a brilliant album. Full of beautiful, haunting sounds which at first wash over you sublimely, but at certain points in the songs they become delicately haunting. Space is the Only Noise is such a brilliant, poetic title, perfectly suited to the album and all the ideas presented here. It's just startling, and I'm surprised he's not as big on the indie scene as he should be... such a fascinating, rewarding artist. If it sounds pretentious, stick with it if you're into your chilled out electro. On my first listen, I would compare it in quality to the dizzying heights of DJ Shadow's Entroducing... or Burial's Untrue.
