What do you think is the best "all around" idm release? let's say a friend of yours knows nothing about idm (or whatever you like to call it...) and wants to borrow one of your albums to find out what it sounds like. what would you recommend him? in other words, which album best describes the genre for you? id say autechre's tri repetae++. it covers a wide range of what idm is, and it's not too experimental for untrained ears. everyone should have it in their collection! |

confield due it's efficient arrangement of trax imo |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thats what i thought at gut instinct, but i dont know that sounds too simlar to idm as a whole. when i think ot idm i think of clicks =) |
||||||||

actually, i did just that! it was an intro to IDM, for a friend (who mostly learnde through osmosis in my car). I also gave him solutions for a small planet by haujobb (to show off some bad ass european industrial). but i feel that the best idm is the more glitchier stuff, ppl don't really talk about it here, but i'm talking like projects like "Xingu Hill, or Ammo." if you have dsl, get these off of soulseek. their both done by the same guy. i strongly sugest Xingu Hill's "this anxious space," and ammo's "kalienoscope" (just do a search for ammo, because i can't spell the disc title) very abstract, new, fresh, and great sounding idm. it doesn't sound like anything talked on this board at all, and i strongly sugest getting the xingu hill cd i mentioned. |

The Braindance Coincedance- The Rephlex Sampler! |

id hate to say it but maybe uziq royal astronomy, or autechre amber. |
||||||||
|
|

I'd say I Care Because You Do is the quintessential electronic album. If you don't have it, you deserve to be bludgeoned. |

OFEKS: thats a little harsh, but so is yer moms. |

||||||||
|
|

|

||||||||

The ultimate album doesn't exist niether does The ultimate music or The ultimate artist.... but Drukqs is my favourite IDM at the moment, even tho half of it is not really IDM... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i agree that the ultimate album does not exist, or will ever exist for that matter. basically, what i was trying to ask was to name the album that, in your opinion, was THE classic idm album, the one that everyone couldnt afford not to have, or the "quintessential electronic/idm album, therefore, the album that would best describe the genre for an initiated listener that wanted to give this type of music a try... perhaps it's not an easy choice to make. maybe this is why only a few people gave an answer in this thread. or maybe im not making myself very clear (i dont speak english very well)! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you're english is fine and i can't think of one actually so i guess it is a hard question, Drukqs is not "classic" but its my favourite right now and will probablly change as soon as i hear something new..... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh yeah, and the reason i posted this question was basically to find out which important/pinnacle albums i was missing in my collection, according to the fine people on this board. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ummm, do you have Accelerator by FSOL? go get it... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
actually, i dont. ive got lifeforms, isdn and dead cities though. it's the only fsol album i havent heard good things from... maybe i should give it a try, ive been eagerly wanting for some new fsol material! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i've got all these too, Accelerator is the danciest out of all of them, and i reckon its good, not as good as the rest tho.... |

I CARE BECAUSE YOU DO MOTHER FUCKERS!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Definetly I care because you do |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
richard d james album, what the fucks the MATTER WITH YOU PEOPLE. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Accelerator sucks big time (imho). I bought it recently and ended up taking it back! I changed it for Lifeforms, which i'm glad i did cos its excelent. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I thought accelorator sucks too...early 90's bullshit IMO! |

"Perfect Strangers" by Frank Zappa |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
How about one of the WARP Compilations?... For early IDM, go to the source and go for Artificial Intelligence Vol I...(or the 2 CD version of AI 2, which I prefer...)... or the WARP100 We Are Resonable People...that had a decent mix of tunes on it... IDM's such a wide genre muscially really... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Warp100 got my mate into all this stuff we like, but generally i'd say richard d. james album or selected ambient works 85-92 is good for those getting into it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
wap100 is definitly a great call. i should own it. the aphex/squarepusher collaboration is reason enough to buy it! what a track. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh yeah, and it also has autechre's stop look listen, one of their most underrated tracks imo. sounds like it came straight out of lp5. |
