when it comes down to more "older" stuff ... Wisp - The Shimmering Hour on Rephlex sounds fucking sick! really aphex-ish
and the melody of "Nothing more than a White Poison" drives me nuts everytime!

i've been think of something to write for about half an hour now. i write something then delete it and start thinking about sh!t then write and delete.
people tell me i should listen to this innovative new music but it just doesn't do much for me. i've always had an interest in forward thinking music but now i need a different direction. over the last year i haven't had much interest in looking for new music because there is nothing out there that makes me think "wow thats some amazing sh!t". i get more excited listening to disco music form the 1970's than i do listening to UK funky or dubstep.
is funky repetitive groove music still innovative?

@tone
yeah, with you totally. i can't actually think of anything i'd put up there.
was kind of hoping i'd get hit with a load of stuff that would make me feel like i'd wasted a year chasing the wrong records.
theres loads of funky or dubstep i like a lot but, without trying to sound like a c*nt, i don't really believe in it. new mount kimbie is good, but i don't think i care that much. is this what happens when your late twenties start closing in?
maybe one mix cd i heard of some new juke music. but i don't actually know if everyone would call it innovative. pretty wild stuff to me though.

i don't see why funky repetative groove music can't still be innovative though. its not like theres a set amount of ideas that got used up.

I'm with the oldies here. I find my attention span for the cool new sounds pretty limited. Not much in techno really surprises me any more.
I think if you want some music to meditate on and draw some creative inspiration from, then you should look to some different styles:
The Beach Boys - Pet Sounds
... or some Frank Zappa and stuff like that.
Check out the production and mixing on Mansun (90s pop-rock). Or I was recently quite enjoying - Midnight Juggernauts from Australia.
I have to say I find a lot of what people are doing in dubstep and techno these days is really quite anal and wanky. Sounds like VSTs and DSP - doesn't sound like a vision being realised musically.
