I have to agree, hardly anything released this year has interested me apart from the new MF Doom album. Recently I've been rediscovering/getting into early AE, Throbbing Gristle, Kraftwerk, Black Dog, Humanoid, Juan Atkins and my word does it sound FRESH compared to most of the stuff released recently. I'm beginning to come to the conclusion that dance/electronic music in general reached it's peak around 15 years ago. Seriously. Combined with a massive decline in posts to this list (eBay listings not withstanding) makes me think that there are less and less good new ideas out there and that the tenuious IDM scene is dead.
