herbie hancock - crossings
namco sound team - klonoa 2 soundtrack (really called something like kaze no klonoa: exaggeratedly Japanese subtitle delineated by tildes)
édith piaf - whichever best-of
SFA - guerrilla and beyond dawn - frysh which are total companion pieces
nick cave & the bad seeds - from her to eternity
geinoh yamashirogumi - ozore-san/dou no kenbai (although perhaps this is merely prog that's not listed here)
the gerogerigegege - instruments disorder

and of course,
zan-zan-zawa-veia - pawprints (still unreleased)

I struggled because I didn't want to list compilations because that'd be vague and useless, even if they make up a lot of what I listen to. and I know, too much Japan not enough England ;P
