The emerging indie electro scene has really been doing it for me lately. It mixes the fundamental production values of electronic music with some of the more mainstream appeal of indie music, like lyrics, for example :)
One of my favorite songs is "Cold Dust Girl" by an artist called "Hey Champ" that I can't seem to find anything about (bar a few songs on the Hype Machine). Friendly Fires, who's more well known, also has some pretty cool stuff too, as well as Cut Copy.
