Some more I loved from 2012 (will be added to the OP soon):
Patrick Watson's Adventures in Your Own Backyard
I forget how I ran across this one, but this is a phenomenal mood album. Fills your heart just listening to it.
Parov Stelar's The Paris Swing Box
Another album from a couple years ago -- I'll let this piece of awesomeness speak for itself.
YUKSEK's Living On The Edge Of Time
Just really solid pop rock. Smart, crisp, with no hint of snobbery.
Neneh Cherry & the Thing's Cherry Thing
Finally, somebody bringing the free-er parts of jazz to the world in ways that are accessible while still being very, very strange.
Sky Ferreira's Ghost EP
Dreamy pop with irresistable hooks. I've had a pretty stressful year and this album brought me down more times than I can mention.
Low Roar's Low Roar
Some more mood music -- more brooding, with some menace. I actually prefer the longer forms of the songs.
OK GO's Of The Blue Colour Of The Sky
Guilty pleasure.
