Great recommendations. I have a feeling Engine is right though. Nothing is gonna' come quite close to Untrue.

Sadly,you're in the right as it really is the dog's bollocks.

it is certainly not Dubstep but for Dark, beautiful Electronica I heartily recommend this album:

If you can recommend some similar dubstep that is that dark & beautiful I would be forever grateful.

I've been searching for ages... :(

EDIT: Here's something that's definitely interesting though somewhat along those lines. More straightforward electronic music, but it oozes darkness and violence from my speakers.

They never reached these heights again and almost became a pastiche of themselves but damn their debut still holds up phenomenally well. Bring It On Down is a bloody great track.

Too right they never hit those heights again. WTSMG was more commercially accessible and radio friendly but it was nowhere near as good. Tony McCaroll was a shit drummer but even his drumming added quite a erratic, punky vibe to it and worked out well, especially on Bring It On Down.

One more for tonight...

Call me a nerd if you like, but Samurai Champloo is probably the best thing I've ever watched. Movie, T.V. show, anything, it's the best. Years ago after I watched the first episode of the show on Adult Swim, I knew I had to have the soundtrack. So I went out and downloaded it immediately. The sounds were just so... laid back, it just blew me away. I was just really getting into smoking at that time, and this stuck with me. I must have listened to it hundreds of times. But for some reason, I didn't actually follow up and get more into the downtempo genre untill I got Smoker's Delight and Thievery Corporation about a year later, and not until shortly before joining MB when I had a sudden surge in my interest in music did I actually really start getting into the genre. Since then it's introduced me to some great stuff, particularly:

You have any other Fat Jon The Ample Soul Physician albums? I think he did some of the music for Champloo, so his other albums bight be worth a download (Afterthought, Wave Motion, Lightweight Heavy)

No I haven't gotten around to checking him out yet :( Would anything be a good starting place, or just jump in wherever?
