Norwegian Space Disco

This article "From our Bay to Norway" from the San Francisco Bay Guardian turned me on to a whole new world of music. It's about this very cerebral DJ culture with incredibly esoteric (often pretentious), but highly refined musical tastes who weave these styles through their own music. I'm not even going to try to describe it more, just listen to "Slow Burning Hands" or "Surf Wax", by The Sorcerer, here. The rest of the album's pretty crazy awesome as well.
