sorry for being pedantic but i'm in for helping Dark Whisper to get up in the list :lol:

Uptempo:

 

01. Nervasystem - Brainradio <- a psychedelic mind-f**k, just perfect

02. Artha - Dream Theater <- Hallucinogen's 3rd album that we never got

03. Virtuart - Virtuart & Friends <- old-school treasure
04. Ultimate Experience - Lazarus Rising <- dancefloor-friendly Juno Reactor

05. Loud - 5 Billion Stars <- the definition of concept album

06. Mind Sphere - Mental Triplex: Presence <- sweeping, melodic storm

07. Tripswitch - Vagabond <- dark, brooding ...and beautiful

08. Oforia - Read More <- old master at work
09. Morphic Resonance - The City of Moon <- new master at work

10. Crossing Mind - Beyond Duality <- flawed, but takes you on emotional rollercoaster

 

Downtempo:

 

01. Globular - Holobiont <- Ott v2.0

02. Mindex - Re-Focused <- glitchy, stuttery mess of beauty

03. Pitch Black - Filtered Senses <- deep, dubby

04. Dub Trees - Celtic Vedic <- deeper, dubbier and more spiritual

Also a question...Filipe put out an absolute f*ckton of material this year and the lion's share was superb.  Question being, a lot of it was recycled material.  For example, Tofu by Chynacid was released I believe in 2010, but was repackaged in the album Book of Changes this year.  Does that count?
