Sounds like you like them more than I do. Never really got into Power, Corruption & Lies, I definitely prefer the three succeeding albums - it just doesn't have a very good flow to it, though "Age of Consent" is a great song without doubt.

Are you a fan of modern dance music (House/EDM/Trap/etc.)? I'm not really big on the kind that emphasizes festival friendly big bass drops - but there's a ton of great stuff out there that emphasizes groove and feeling - getting loose and into a certain headspace. Throughout the coronavirus lockdowns, there was an absolute plethora and influx of house DJs uploading great sets (some with just a single DJ, and others with b2b [back to back] performances with another DJ) - a serious cornucopia of this material is on Youtube. I'm somewhat of a house head myself, and hearing a great DJ mix tracks together to create their own moods and journeys that cater to a crowd is a treat.
