5.1 surround mix to die for. And Shesmovedon as an easter egg. A truly awesome CD/DVD.
Fear of a Blank Planet: +DVDFear of a Blank Planet: +DVD by Porcupine Tree
Buy used from: £30.00
In 5.1, the latest awesome album, with the whole of the Nil Recurring EP in 5.1 too. Highlight is Normal. The surround sound is INCREDIBLE.

5.1 essential. The stereo album is 5* but this is something else. Heartattack in a lay by in 5.1 is audiophonic heaven.
Stupid DreamStupid Dream by Porcupine Tree
Buy new: £6.66 / Used from: £8.68
with the whole album in 5.1 as a bonus. Even Less extended. Awesome.

Blackfield.... more accessible that PT, no less beautiful.
Blackfield IIBlackfield II by Blackfield

Blackfield II.... you need them both. Really you do. Beyond this point are dozens of other great Steven Wilson works. Get these 11. Then get EVERYTHING else. The man is Midas.

The new CD with the whole album also in 5.1 surround sound. The BEST CD of 2008 so far.

Another essential. Once you discover no-man, it's all essential basically.
All the Blue Changes: An AnthologyAll the Blue Changes: An Anthology by No-Man
Buy used from: £44.19
Can't go wrong with the selection from their back catalogue. Not a best of, as all of their work is their best of.
Wild OperaWild Opera by No-Man
Currently hard to get. There's always hope it'll be repressed.
FlowermouthFlowermouth by No-Man

The order here is irrelevant. It's all good, and all essential.
Loveblows and Lovecries: A ConfessionLoveblows and Lovecries: A Confession by No-Man

SpeakSpeak by No-Man

Buy new: £12.98 / Used from: £8.51
Steven Wilson's more ambient project. Very minimalist. 5.1 surround. Haunting stuff.
Pacific Codex [CD + DVD]Pacific Codex [CD + DVD] by Bass Communion
You wish. Only 975 copies made, and you ain't having one. There are other Bass Communion's to get... Ghosts on Magnetic Tape for example.

Buy new: £106.00 / Used from: £69.99
AMAZING for the price. Get this if you have no 5.1 system. It will be like upgrading your system from an old mono turntable to a stereo CD. You really will NOT regret it. And you need 5.1.Yes, you do.
