Favourite non-dance electronic tune of the moment?

You know, the stuff not necessarily meant for the dance floor. Whether it's IDM, downtempo, nu jazz, trip hop, industrial, ambient, whatever. Electronic music for the head and not the dance floor. Some is still dancey of course, but you know what I mean. Not trance, house, etc. What track's doing it for you at the moment? YouTube vids encouraged.

Here's one I've enjoyed a lot over the last few years, to get started.

Ambient + traditional Native American music + maybe a little bit of jazz:

Nice thread! My library isn't too great in this respect but I like these at the moment.

Yay! I am a HUGE Plaid fanboy.

Exactly the kind of stuff I'd be posting in this thread.

I downloaded the Warp20 (unheard) that this track is on, but have only played it once so far. Nice track. Can't wait for them to finally release their new album.

Never heard of Williams, not bad. A bit on the house side but it's chill, slower and I like the low bass.

Pretty nice song, I haven't listened to any múm before. I think I always assumed they were post-rock. Not that that has kept me from listening to them, I do listen to post-rock. I see that this is a remix though, maybe their normal studio work is less electronic?

Fantastic Czech band for me:

How good was this album?:

I downloaded that Ecstasy of Saint Theresa album recently but I haven't played it yet. I've only heard the track that was part of a monthly comp recently.

And why are you putting rap in here?

^Has been getting stuck in my head like crazy lately.
