I thought about posting this in the "What Are You Enjoying Lately?" thread, but this album is so ridiculously good that it deserves its own thread, 'cause I know once other people hear it they'll love it. There albums that I love but that I'm uncertain whether other people will like it and then there are albums that I love and know other people will love as well. This album is of the latter class.
The album is called Rosebud and the band is Winona. Most of the 14 songs have no vocals, and while this is not a pure dance album, it is accessible. The sounds are excellent and the execution is masterfully done. You really have to hear this album to understand. It's been on the internet for at least a few days now, so it shouldn't be terribly difficult to find. Definitely check this one out fellas.

Great album, picked up a used copy recently. I can tell they must be into Kraftwerk. Wish there had been a couple more vocal tracks but I loved everything I heard.

I downloaded this based solely on the recommendation here and I've really been loving it. Normally I can't get into albums that are mostly instrumental, but this is a great exception. I keep thinking it would make a perfect episode soundtrack for some TV show next year - maybe CSI, which tends to use a lot of electronica. Hopefully, it will get a US release before too long.

Glad to see more people picking up on this one. It's still easily the best electronic record I've heard this year. Here's to hoping there's a US release in the cards.
