Good timing - I just started listening to the new Bugs album, "Infinite
Syndrome", and it seems to be just what you're looking for. Some sweet,
laidback trip-hop and smooth d'n'b with female vocals on about 2/3 of the
tracks. Three different vocalists according to the liner notes, and the
two I've heard so far are not bad at all. If it turns into a stinker later
on, I'll let y'all know, but for now, I give it a thumbs up. It's on
Ubiquity outta San Francisco.

Yup, pretty damn close. The first two minutes or so of that track still
gives me chills. And now that I think of it, that track was probably the
one that turned me on to IDM in the first place.
