Another ''best of 2005'' thread... this time for albums
I know, yet another one of these threads where we argue over what is and isn't the best ____________ of 2005. This time I say we cover albums, both artist and mix.
Pole Folder - Zero Gold
Dousk - D.I.Y
Pendulum - Hold Your Colour
Sasha - Fundacion
James Zabiela - Utilities
Desyn Masiello - Balance 008
John Digweed - Fabric 20
Steve Lawler - Lights Out 3
Ferry Corsten - Creamfields 2005
that about does it for me. I think it's weird that I only really liked one trance album this year even though I still do like trance. I guess it's just been a bad year for trance albums unless there's some I haven't heard (which I'm sure there are) that are outstanding.
1. Dousk - DIY
2. Space Manoeuvres - OID
3. White Label Republic

DJ Tiesto - In Search of Sunrise 4
Creamfields - Mixed by Ferry Corsten
Sasha - Fundacion
Ferry Corsten - Passport: The Kingdom of the Netherlands
And just for a change of pace, I really liked:
David Guetta - Fuck Me I'm Famous Vol. 2
Some honorable mentions go to
Richie Hawtin: De9 Transitions
I can't really get into Hawtin even though I've tried. It's a bit too minimal and subtle for me. Still, I can respect the album, the thought put into it, and the mixing.
James Zabiela FOUR.2
I'm not quite sure whether or not this was really an album or a release of four sets as I don't think there was an official album epithet tagged to it. Still, it was damn good. Especially Zero Rendered 
Pendulum - Hold Your Colour
Chemical Brothers - Push The Button
Were the two I'll be listening to for a long time yet.

Miika Kuisma - Inwardgaze
Ja�a - Fiction

Spiral Trax - 2cd - Swedish Goa

A cd of blindingly mind-tantalising progpsy with some more upbeat stuff on cd 2 with lots of trippyness.

Best Artist Album - Pier Bucci - La Familia (Crosstown Rebels)
-It is too minimal for some people but for me, it hit all the right buttons
Best Mix Album - (Tie) - Joof - White Label Republic (hitmania) and GU 028 - Warren in Shanghai
Joof's mix was outstanding and it just made me remember why I loved trance and joof's style
Warren used all these newer artists and just hit every single right note and he even included the famous track in CD2.
Most Disappointing album this year was Dave Clarke's World Service 2. I'll give the man props for using tracks that he was playing but he tried for banging and the CDs had little flow.
Aux 88 - Aux 88
