Hands down, stone-cold favourite of the year:
Richard Youngs - 'Summer Wanderer' [No Fans]

Though now that I think about it, a close second was:
Can't - 'LP' [Ultra-Eczema]

...And in no particular order or hierarchy:
Loren Connors - 'Sails' [Table of the Elements]
Andrew Chalk - 'Blue Eyes of the March' [Faraway Press - hard pushed on this one as everything on this label is worth a squirt]
Heather-Leigh - 'Pot Baby' [Volcanic Tongue - brownie point count: 1]
Keiji Haino - 'Revealed To None As Yet - An Expedience To Utterly Vanquish Conciousness While Still Alive' [Important/Archive]
Keiji Haino - 'Yaraniaga Dekinaikotoni Natteyuku' [PSF]
Puis - 'Robot Terrorist' [self-released - big up the New Weird Perthshire]
Hjarnidaudi - 'Pain:Noise:March' [Paradigm]
Dream/Aktion Unit - 'Blood Shadow Rampage' [Volcanic Tongue - brownie point count: 2]
Espers - 'II' [Drag City]
The Oshiri-Penpenz - 'The White Album' [Frying Start]
Galbraith/Neilson/Youngs - 'Belsayer Time' [Time Lag]
Joanna Newsom - 'Ys' [Drag City]
Jandek - 'Newcastle Sunday' [Corwood Industries]
Reiko Kudo - 'Hito' [Ryotan]
Reiko Kudo - 'Kusa' [Ryotan]
Wolf Eyes & Anthony Braxton - 'Black Vomit' [Victo]

Hits from the vault that have seen me good through the past year (that instantly spring to mind):
Robert Wyatt - 'Rock Bottom'
Anne Briggs
Shirley Collins
Anything by Nagisa Ni Te
'Trane/Abe/Gayle/Urabe
Patty Waters - 'College Tour'
My Bloody Valentine - 'Tremolo'
Brotzmann/Toyozumi Duo - 'Live in Japan 1982'
Youngs/Wickham-Smith - 'Ceaucescu'

And although I only heard it for the first time yesterday, 'Flood' by Boris will probably see me good through the coming year.

Guilty pleasure: anything on an Italo-Disco tip. See you on the dancefloor. Tally-ho.

Dennis Tyfus (Ultra Eczema/Hardline Elephants)
the problem with lovely lists like this is that i love them, but that i definatly only put things in them that i got recently or that i accidently find in my crappy messartment at this very moment.. so in random order;
1. the orphan fairytale-mudboy colab lp and basicly anything orphan fairytale did last year (the great tape on bill nace's label , the stuff on audiobot and her splendid live actions!)
2. la france et les beatles vol 1, 2 and 3 (absolute floor fillers for me, never saw other people enjoy it on a dancefloor though..)
3. cassettencombinat west berlin 1980-81 (another beauty from vinyl on demand, also enjoyed their blockaders tribute boxes)
4. all these erotic cds on Tiliqua records
5. the AMPS FOR CHRIST side on the california box set on troniks!
6. a bunch of the bootleg tapes on PUIK tapes, always sweetly designed by label jock jelle crama
7. the delaware cdr on american tapes!
8. the drum solo cdr on hot car farts by CHRIST CORSANO!
9.anything by AF URSIN
also very much loved the tour with wolf eyes and taurpis tula, the endless mountains of presents carlo audiobot gave me, the great hang out with noise nomads, george and dan of breaking world records, drawing with bill nace, killer colab shows of taurpis and cassis cornuta, the non stop genius daily performances and radioshows by daniel aka cassis cornuta, an unbelieveble colab of blood stereo and ludo mich, DRAMARAMA, no fun, things get better every year!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i start sounding like jhonny ramone at the mtv music awards so i better stop now.
