Every time I am listening to Soft Machine. I cannot get enough of their music.

Half-joking aside, my discoveries are All Over Everywhere and everything from Emkog Records, all Zeuhl bands, most Canterbury Scene bands, Three Monks and most of the new generation of RPI bands, Advent, Present, Flairck, Drudck and a lot of other bands I have forgotten. 

PA is about discoveries and scratching my brain cells with sounds I find difficult to understand. That's for me is the whole point of PA.

Brian Eno's ambient music.  It's opened up a new world to me and changed my view on music.  Henry Cow was also discovered by me early this year...and thats pretty damn important.

...have to say my biggest discovery of the year would be THE LAZE:
 
 
I can't believe these guys are not signed to a prog label of some sort.

In Lingua Mortua. Their last album is a perfect mix of black metal and 70s King Crimson!

I like the 3 Monks (official) CD-R. Italian trio of pipe organ, bass, drums. If you like Goblin, check 'em out. Great!

Clark-Hutchinson
 
I must have seen them at the Reading Festival in 1971 but have no recollection of them. 
 
I bought 3 albums on a double CD this year and was incredibly impressed.  The first album is instrumental and quite interesting but the second album - retribution - is absolutely brilliant.  The third album - gestalt - is also very good.
 
Hutchinson's guitar work is brilliant, especially the acoustic stuff.  The songs are quite unusual, maybe with a hint of Kevin Ayers but with very strong instrumental arrangements.

Scott Johnson (composer; avant-garde)
Naima (Spanish jazz group)
Thelema Trio (chamber music)
Winterhorde (Israeli prog metal)
Odyssice (instrumental prog)
Ciccada (new Greek prog band, released their debut this year)
Lüger (psych from Spain)
Dave Kulju (cross-over musician from NH)
Moon Duo (psych-rock from CA)
Howl (sludge metal)
Zoe Keating (chamber music by a cellist)
Dean Watson (eclectic prog)
Algernon (experimental/avant/post rock from Chicago)

This year, this year...difficult to say.  I finally became a Genesis fan, more or less...but I'd have to say Nektar are the biggest thing to rock my world in ages.  Especially Tab, Remember the Future, Recycled, and Evolution...amazing, unique music, and the current soundtrack of my life!
