I HIGHLY recommend "The xx". Most chill, laid back, music ever.

I also HIGHLY recommend "Anathallo". Their music is just beyond words.

also there's

Ace Enders, (or) I can make a mess like nobody's business
Animal Collective
Copeland
Damien Rice
Death Cab
The Early November
Efterklang
Freelance Whales
Local Natives
Manchester Orchestra
The National
Thom Yorke (solo)
Vampire Weekend
Yeasayer

None of these bands will disappoint.

Just torrent playlists and find out your personal preferences and artists.
But I'm gonna say Said the Whale cause they're from Vancouver and they're not too shabby
