It's got all those dread-deep vibes ala Spaceape that connects it to kode9's old shit while still maintaining all the relevance that the dubstep-turned house producers have managed to steal.
This is not open to discussion.
This is a fact.

Black Sun didn't get as much love as it deserved but first place is definitely Sully.

I've omitted Damu, Sbtrkt, The Aliens and Ullrich Troyer because I simply don't like their sounds. But I guess most people would deem (some of) those purchase worthy.
I've not decided which ones I like best so far. But I think my favourite album still so far is DeepChord's "hash-bar loops"...

SBTRKT - SBTRKT has been one of my favourite albums ever, really like every single song.
Jehst - Dragon of an ordinary family deserves a mention in this list as well, such a strong album!

no mention of Baobinga's Joint Ventures? Maybe not best of the year but definitely better than some on this thread.
