4. DJ Shadow - Building Steam with a Grain of Salt
5. Boy Hits Car - Tonight
6. Audioslave - Yesterday to Tomorrow
7. System of a Down - Soldier Side
8. Queens of the Stone Age - Go with the Flow
9. Nine Inch Nails - Only
10. Deftones - Back to School (Mini Maggit) [Live]

2. "Hamburg Song" — Keane
3. "Hey Paula" — Paul & Paula
4. "Boy with a Coin" — Iron & Wine
5. "The Obvious Child" — Paul Simon
6. "Ordinary Day" — Vanessa Carlton
7. "Rescue in a Wreck" — Eric Serra (from Le Grand Bleu)
8. "He's a Tramp" — Bette Midler

10. "All I Ask of You" — Emmy Rossum and Patrick Wilson (from The Phantom of the Opera 2004 film soundtrack)

 

[Steve Roby]

1. Omen (Random Trio), "Frontline," Tectonic Plates
2. Rapoon, "Horizon Discrete," Time Frost
3. Richard Hawley, "Aran Loop," Run For Me EP
4. Sonic Youth, "In The Mind Of The Bourgeois Reader," Experimental Jet Set, Trash and No Star
5. The Cramps, "Bikini Girls With Machine Guns," Stay Sick!
6. His Name Is Alive, "No More The Moon," Silver Makeup single
7. El-P, "Posenville Kids No Wins / Reprise (This Must Be Our Time)," I'll Sleep When You're Dead
8. Scorn, "Super Mantis (Original Mix)," Super Mantis Part 1 single
9. Sally Shapiro, "Moonlight Dance," My Guilty Pleasure
10. Ella Fitzgerald, "Just One of Those Things," The Complete Ella Fitzgerald Song Books

If there's anyone on TrekBBS who has as many as three of those songs, I'd be (pleasantly) surprised. None of them strike me as all that obscure, aside from possibly Omen (Random Trio), a dubstep artist who doesn't have any solo albums (that track is from a label comp). But most of the people here seem to have pretty mainstream tastes.

2. Elton John — "Amy" — Honky Château
3. Dido — "Let's Do the Things We Normally Do" — Safe Trip Home
4. Jean-Claude Petit — "Jean de Florette Theme" — Pure Cinema Chillout
5. Howard Shore — "The Hornburg" — LOTR: The Two Towers

^ The XX are a superb band. I just bought their new album yesterday and it's one of my favourites of the year by a long way. Beautiful songs.

 

[Steve Roby]

I read some reviews that dropped a lot of references to stuff I like -- Young Marble Giants, Tricky, Raveonettes, dubstep -- and knew I had to check them out. They live up to it, too; they're definitely something special.
