Only 5 years ago, the year 2005 had some breakthrough music.

British semi-real act Gorillaz released some great tracks on their CD "Demon Days"; I'll play "Feel good inc" which balances the melancholy vocals of Daman Albarn with the powerful rap of De La Soul

The UK electronic band Shpongle [left] released a surprisingly melodic and joyful CD, "Ineffable Mysteries from Shpongleland."

Best track: "Levitation nation."Bob Sinclair's "Love generation" will play in your head for the rest of the day.

The house rhythms roll, as a number of creative artists and producers made standout original and repackaged music in 2005.

One of my favorite producers /arrangers/writers/musicians is Japanese-American DJ Satoshi Tomiie. He flies a little bit below the radar on alot of people's DJ lists, but he can create a spacey rhythmic trip better than anyone. This week's show features two of his remixes: The Music's "Breakin'" and Slok's "Lonely Guy." Both tracks are usually part of an hour or so of an extended dance/house mix. Satoshi takes house out of the house and into space.

Adding to the beats is Daft Punk, Gorillaz, and Shpongle, while Bob SinclairMcCartney (this song is a good as most things he did with his original band) keep the rhythm going but provide alternatives. By the way, if you don't know Shpongle, Sunday would be a good day to hear them: they're funny and creative, and they truly live up to their name. (incredibly inspiring and unifying) and

My song of the show: the haunting "The Song" by Kirpi.

Beautiful moment of the show: the mysterious final chords of Goldfrapp’s “Let it take you.”
