I've recently listened to Björk, and was instantly hooked. Looking for more similar stuff, even though I know she's a very unique artist. Last.fm search didn't give much, I mean, Portishead and PJ Harvey are not similar at all.

Favorite album by her is Post if that helps, and favorite songs are Hyper-Ballad and Enjoy

Not exactly analogous but Goldfrapp has some similarities.

I'm looking for some recommendations when it comes to modern (or classic) Jazz. I'm a complete Jazz virgin, I have no clue about anything past a vague assumption of what it should sound like. I'm more interested in a more mellow, laid-back kind of sound.

I realize I've been very vague, but considering the fact that I know drat-near-nothing about Jazz, setting me up with any artists I've never heard of shouldn't be difficult.

Start with Miles Davis - Kind of Blue, then just check out more stuff by him and the rest of the band mates (John Coltrane, Cannonball Adderley, Bill Evans, etc)

What are some other bands like Broadcast and Stereolab? 60s pop/psychedelia meets 90s/2000s?

I want to hear some good Mexican music. All I know is norteño and mariachi or Esquivel. Are there any cool Mexican bands that are like Os Mutantes or something?
