@taphead, thanks for the Sunken Foal rec. it's got a few really good tracks. also i have been spinning Seefeel's Faults, and Monster Rally's Palm Reader.
These days I seem to be gravitating to Opeth and Josh Ritter although I tend to work/drive/game with shuffle on so it's out of my hands. And if I'm willing to put up with the hassle of grooveshark I've been really getting into Buck Tick over the last year.
PUNCH-push/pull 12" NERVE AGENTS-days of the white owl PANIC AT THE DISCO-fever you cant sweat out RANCID-out come the wolves CANCER KIDS-the possible dream 12" CONVERGE-axe to fall 12"

Right now just some random Scroobius Pip tunes I pulled off Music Junk for Android specifically "fixed".just heard the vacine remix of "thou shall always kill" and wanted more. Today it's been D1 - fact mix and Becoming Real - fact mix,becoming real is very unique I have not heard anyone doing grime/bass like this before. Also been bumping Dj Roc for that Juke/Footwork flavour..saw The GasLamp Killer last friday and he destroyed the club with some of this ish... At some point I am going to be asked to turn this down by my lovely girlfriend,domestic bliss or what ?
Found something I honestly hadn't even heard of until now...
Billy Idol - Cyberpunk
Billy Idol... "doing" Cyberpunk. I love it. It's complete half-learned repetitive trash and I've fallen entirely in love with it. Anyone else know of any music that attempts to capture the feel of Cyberpunk/Posthumanism? I'm veeeery curious about all this...
@Ninewhilenine83 - I don't know how you feel about hip-hop but on Deltron 3030 has many William Gibson references and is definitely post human,well worth a listen imho.
@Ninewhilenine83: Front Line Assembly, particularly on the magnificent "Tactical Neural Implant", always sounded like cyberpunk music to me. It might also be worth your while checking out one of the million or so releases featuring Kenji Siratori. He's a cyberpunk author who seems to collaborate with almost everyone who'll have him, so I would imagine you'll find something to your taste in there. I highly enjoyed his collaboration with D. Harlan Wilson - "Beneath a Pink Sun" - but I haven't really heard any of his other stuff.
@Ninewhilenine83 If I remember correctly, when cyberpunk came out, it came with a floppy disk. No idea what was on it. Also, I don't know if it sounds particularly cyberpunk, but Buck Tick - Mona Lisa Overdrive may have a bit of a William Gibson influence. Possibly.
Second Front Line Assembly. A lot of EBM and early industrial has that vibe, like Skinny Puppy, Nitzer Ebb, early Ministry and NIN, Front 242, Clock DVA, Throbbing Gristle, Foetus, even Cabaret Voltaire and Human League.
