hmm...
tunng is hard to get close to.... what you might enjoy is some of the back cat stuff of Morr or City Centre Offices... but only little of it has that little extra that tunng has (dictaphone was one I liked a lot) ... the ones that come closest have already been named afaik. Various, Bonnie Prince Billy / Will Oldham.
you also could try the big ones - Animal Collective, Iron & Wine, & Coco Rosie just in case you havent heard them...
Oh, these popped just up in me head- The Books

Some more traditional (English) stuff I'm feeling atm:
Crucible
Spiers and Boden
There's something quite awesome and meditative about the way that some of the serious traditional guys will approach their tunes - like they're essentially a conduit for the tunes and they're just bringing out stuff that's already in there, it's very anti-rockstar. I really like the wonkiness of english folk rhythms, too, although it's something I'm only just starting to find out about.
