Re: best new electronic act out now?
yea - got to agree about Burial as well.... and if you kinda dig Panda Bear, you'd at least like Burial's ambient stuff as well

if you're getting into Dubstep now - I'd really recommend the "5 Years of Hyperdub" label compilation (it's also Burial's label).

I dig some of Kode9's stuff... but it can be a bit hit and miss

you're also totally right about the "new labels for old stuff" deal...

and after I saw Boys Noize at Coachella a couple of years ago, I completely fell in love with his music. Although - I will give you... his stuff works better in the context of a live show than as "an album listening experience". Completely different than Burial - he really reminds me of old-old Daft Punk



also of a side note: not necessarily "electronic" but seeing as you mentioned Animal Collective, you might want to check out Grizzly Bear ("Yellow House" or the "Friend EP")
