Meanwhile, here's some votes already received, both bigging up that Burial bloke...
Bloc Party - Where Is Home? (Burial Remix)
"The enigmatic and anonymous South Londoner Burial has taken the vocals of Kele and treated them in such a way as to show them in a new light. Slowed down, sped up and left dry the treated vocals get a new lease of life sat upon 2-step beats and a warm bassline. The piano and sound effects add a real atmospheric feel which altogether produce one of the best remixes of the year if not the best track. Burial shows us the melancholic future through his dubstep/post apocalyptic 2-step and his Bloc Party remix will open up his sound to a wider audience, and deservedly so".

Burial - Untrue
"Deliciously downbeat title track on a blinding album that's clearly a step up from his debut. Haunting, melancholy and exhibiting his usual mastery of the vocal sample, the synths at the end are the icing on the comedown cake. This guy WILL save UK electronic music".
