As a listener and music collector I like Bandcamp the most. It provides free streaming, and the ability to buy albums and individual tracks - somewhat - directly off the artist.
Artists can choose their pricing, including giving tracks away free. I really like this micro-payment model, and it would be nice if this could be expanded for example via direct peer-to-peer payments (avoiding paypal fees for the artist).
 
I don't think Spotify has all the artists I'd like, but I've never really checked to be honest. The ~160 kbps streaming is not for me. I prefer to have the lossless formats on my hard disk or media player.
 

one of the hot subjects now in internet is about the future of music streaming services for dj's. Soundcloud is getting a weird direction now, and many dj mixes have been removed recently for copyright claims.
what i find interesting is that soundcloud remove mixes from their service, for copyright violation of 1 track. But meanwhile you can find "full albums" on youtube.

Maybe some works by:
 
Bombay Dub Orchestra (the closest IMO, especially their latest, Tales from the Grand Bazaar)
Celt Islam
Desert Dwellers
Eastern Dub Tactik
Eastern Spirit
Outersect
Seb Taylor's Kaya Project and Angel Tears projects
Shakatura
Gio Makyo's own Padmasana project is definitely worth checking out if you haven't already, though it's a bit spacier than Makyo.
 
Some of these artists are either inactive or haven't released anything for some time now though.

Yuri gives you two great artists to start. I'd also suggest certain Desert Dweller's stuff plus their shoot off Liquid Bloom.
 
Let me think....
 
Puff Dragon
Bahramji
Dub Sutra
Gaudi
Irina Mikhailova
Ishq
 
 
I'm sure others can help.
 
Pax!
