Essentials A-Z: D

A Listmania! list by BlueCalx "Joe" (Sussex)
 
Discovery
1.  Discovery by Daft Punk
The list author says:
  "Certainly their best album. This was my first taste of electronica and it still sounds fresh (and retro) as hell."
£5.50   Used & New from: £0.64
4.3 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (105 customer reviews)

Alive 2007
2.  Alive 2007 by Daft Punk

4.9 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (41 customer reviews) | 1 customer discussion

Come Down
3.  Come Down by Dandy Warhols
The list author says:
  "The Dandy Warhols may be the most under-appreciated band ever to rise to fame. This is one of the best albums of the 90's that just keeps on giving."
£6.37   Used & New from: £0.48
4.4 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (22 customer reviews)

Thirteen Tales From Urban Bohemia
4.  Thirteen Tales From Urban Bohemia by Dandy Warhols

4.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (38 customer reviews)

Little Chills
5.  Little Chills by Darren Hanlon

Low: Remastered
6.  Low: Remastered by David Bowie

£4.17   Used & New from: £3.04
4.4 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (47 customer reviews)

Let's Get Killed
7.  Let's Get Killed by David Holmes
The list author says:
  "The soundtrack to New York's seedy underbelly. So cinematic it's literally like you're walking past closed-down strip clubs and raided crack-dens."
£4.99   Used & New from: £0.22
4.9 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (7 customer reviews)

Secrets of the Beehive

3 Feet High And Rising (W/Bonus Cd)

Transatlanticism
10.  Transatlanticism by Death Cab for Cutie

  "A friend of mine is obsessed with Death Cab and gave me nearly all their albums. Oddly this is the only one I've heard start to finish, but it's frigging great."
£15.04   Used & New from: £5.41
4.6 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (22 customer reviews)

You're a Woman I'm a Machine
11.  You're a Woman I'm a Machine by Death from Above 1979

5.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (4 customer reviews)

THE CRANE WIFE
12.  THE CRANE WIFE by The Decemberists
The list author says:
  "Some bizarre folk-prog-rock hybrid. Pretentious? Sure, but it overcomes all its faults to be both a joy to hear and an emotional experience."
£9.87   Used & New from: £4.72
4.4 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (23 customer reviews)

Microcastle / Weird Era Continued
13.  Microcastle / Weird Era Continued by Deerhunter

3.8 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (9 customer reviews)

Music for the Masses: Remastered/+DVD
14.  Music for the Masses: Remastered/+DVD by Depeche Mode

4.6 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (17 customer reviews)

Violator [CD + DVD]
15.  Violator [CD + DVD] by Depeche Mode
The list author says:
  "Though MFTM sounded arena sized, 'Violator' was quieter but it actually DID fill those stadiums and it wasn't a fluke. A tremendous moody pop record."
£10.42   Used & New from: £8.38
4.9 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (42 customer reviews)

Endtroducing.....
16.  Endtroducing..... by DJ Shadow
The list author says:
  "Pieced together entirely from samples from other records, 'Endtroducing' still sounds unique and exciting."
£5.77   Used & New from: £0.89
4.8 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (48 customer reviews)

Product Placement
17.  Product Placement by DJ Shadow & Cut Chemist
The list author says:
  "If Endtroducing made sampling an art form, this and 'Brainfreeze' made it a sport. An incredible tour-de-force of genre-hopping and mixcraft."
Used & New from: £7.89

4.4 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (64 customer reviews)

The Return of The Durutti Column
20.  The Return of The Durutti Column by Durutti Column
The list author says:
  "You'd think an album who's cover was originally made of sandpaper would be some deviation of punk; instead this is subtle, ghostly guitar soundscapes. Plus it's not pretentious at all. No seriously."
Used & New from: £9.99
4.3 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (7 customer reviews)
