Why not a language that's made for DSP in the first place, like SoundCollider, 
Pd, Max/MSP, Chuck, ... ? Plus, Miller Puckette's book about DSP and Pd might 
be a good place to start (even if you're not interested in learning Pd):

Also, those papers by Jon Dattorro cover a fairly large range of interesting 
topics (oscillators, noise, modulation effects, reverb, ...):

In particular, his reverb algorithm sounds quite nice and is easy to 
implement.
