It's very difficult to recommend a whole album on a singular artist under these genres. I always tend to find good songs with various artists on compilations. I've always been a fan of Portishead, and I've always been on the hunt for more music like them. Now, I have so many to recommend, but I'll start with these albums:

Kallocain by Paatos check out Holding on, Gasoline, and Reality. The album was mixed by Porcupine Tree's Steven Wilson. It's a mixture of downtempo/chillout/Prog-Rock.

In the same vein of Portishead, my highest recommendation will go to:
Mandalay check out their three albums, and then after Nicola Hitchcock's latest solo album:Passive Agressive. Her voice is very unique and angelical.

All India Radio - Fall - Hypnotic Voice and rhythms!!!

More along the lines of Tricky/with more Hip Hop and Jazzy elements, I would have to say, try:
The Herbalizer anything by them.

Wax Tailor- Tales of the Forgotten Melodies, and their latest Hope & Sorrow album.

For the Best Compilations you should try:

Hed Kandi - Winter Chill albums. Huge variety of female artists.

Also try:
Trip Hop Anthology

Very rare stuff:

Brother sun, sister moon- Great Game
Luminous

Both albums produced by Paul Robb from Information Society. Barbara Cohen has a very soulful voice combined with the cool Trip Hop tracks by P. Robb.

I have lots more, but this will suffice for now.

Check out the first lady of psy-chill, Michele Adamson.

She has two solo releases that I know of, plus has collaborated with acts like Shpongle, J. Viewz, Lunar Sound, etc.

One of my favorite tracks with her on vocals is Lunar Sound - Electric Plants.

Another excellent (and relatively unknown) track is Gargoyles - Spacebaby (Seiberg & Witten mix). YouTube - Gargoyles - Spacebaby

Thread is kinda old..... As for stuff this year -

Sarah Howells in the Ronski Speed remix of Lange's "Let it all out". The chorus is intoxicating.

Cristina Soto in the Tritonal songs. "Invincible Sun" is a personal fav. Her voice is so soothing.

Just got this album in on the recommendation of this thread - it's great! Thanks!
