This is what I consider the perfect introduction to left field avant pop and acoustic electronica. A great compilation with lots of variety and many great artists you probably haven't heard of yet. Consider it a jumping off point.

the lemon of pink by the books

preview

as a child, I wandered the streets of Sicily, following the wisps of ghostly voices through the cobblestone alleys of my grandfather's old home. the books' 2003 album, the lemon of pink, hit home as I experienced something spookily similar to my stay on the Italian island. the music sounds like a collection of memories from someplace foreign, containing a collage of voices laced with enough emotion to break language barriers. notable tracks: "tokyo", "there is no there", "take time"

DISCOGRAPHY: Text Adventure

"Mostly one wee guy, sometimes two wee guys from Glasgow, Scotland making little songs on guitar and computers, with singing and glockenspiel and a bunch of keyboards. Sometimes electronic, sometimes acoustic folk." --last.fm
