As part of my friend's venture into owning a record label (Elsie & Jack -- plug intended), we've been sifting through material sent to us in the past few months. The depth of quality and the range of locales has really surprised me; in fact, some of the best recordings I've heard so far has been from a guy who lives in Alabama. It's not exactly dance music -- closer to noise or experimental electronics -- but it's incredibly good. I wish I could remember his name off-hand; he may even be on this list for all I know. .JohnBush.
