Dimlite - Prismic Tops [Now Again] & Ras G - El-Aylien Part 1 [Leaving Records] multi-thread
For Dimlite, there was an album announced but I don't think that's coming out now, but this 7-track ep should more than fill the gap.
I think Dimlite deserves a lot more attention, if just for being there at the start, he's been doing this sort of good stuff since 2003:

And his recent stuff's been really on form,
Diana Won't is gorgeous

and the lead track off the Ep Elbow Flood is pretty fascinating stuff.

Ras G's always immense; he's kind of just cutting back on this new release, but it's really nice, satisfying, and at times, surprisingly beautiful beats fandango.
It's cassette/digital only which is a shame as I know no-one but me likes cassettes, but you can stream the whole thing from xlr8r and then get it on download, if you like.

Anyone looking forward to hearing/loving those two?
