I agree with you completely!! And I love that singr/songwriter style (Simon & Garfunkel, Bob Dylan, Tom Waits etc...)!
Oh and I just love minimal music! I'm going to a club tonight, to see Rasmus Hedlund. Maybe someone has heard of him? Don't know what style he's going to play tonight though.
And once again, I recommend all the stuff from Thinnerism, Textone and Epsilonlab.
Check out especially Alice Mackay & Benfay - Lighthouse EP and Baier/Box - Boxing/Unboxing EP from Thinnerism. They're incredible. Dapayk - Black, White, Orange, Lines EP from Textone is also great.
