Top-five, all-time, desert-island records

In no particular order:

• Shpongle - Nothing Lasts, Nothing Is Lost
  
• Nine Inch Nails - The Fragile
• Tangerine Dream - Dream Mixes
• Introspective - Gewesen
• Aleksi Virta - ..Meets Tortsi At The Space Lounge

And because we all know five albums isn't enough to live on, here are the next ten runners-up.

• Pat Metheny - The First Circle
• Depeche Mode - Playing The Angel
  
• Fahrenheit Project - Part Two
• Fahrenheit Project - Part Five
• Giles Reaves - Nothing Is Lost
• The Orb - Orbus Terrarum
• Beethoven - The Sixth Symphony
• esem - enveloped
• esem - serial human
• Shpongle - Tales of the Inexpressible
  

To be honest, even with these fifteen, I would be wanting.  Toad The Wet Sproket. Some of esem's singles. Seal.  Red Hot Chili Peppers' BSSM.  Engima.  And a metric buttload of other electronic artists.

But these lists are about restrictions, right?

Anyway, I mention this because, despite loving all this music so much, I recognize that new music is important.  Of late, I have felt like my collection is lacking something, but couldn't put my finger on it.  I've realize what that is, though: something new.

The human condition, I suppose.
