So what was the first album of electronic music that you ever bought, stole, or borrowed?
Mine was either Prodigy - Fat of the Land or Crystal Method - Vegas, I can't remember which I bought first. Don't give me shit, I was a freshmen in high school and hadn't had much exposure to it before.

I was listening to electronic before I got A CD player and I dont remember what it was, but the first techno cd I bought was Junkie XL's Saturday Teenage Kick.

Hey that's a cool question. I remember all that fun stuff...getting into electronica and the sounds. The very first thing was hearing a radio program that played deep house music (early early BKS, Love Inc., etc). Then one night a song came on called "Block Rockin' Beats" by the chemical brothers. I begged my mom to get it and...well Dig your own hole by the Chem. Bros was my first electronica cd and cd over all. I bought DP's Homework right after that. I got Dig your own hole when it came out so I guess back in '96 or so.

Well, in the late 80's I bought a few House music tapes (hey, i'm in Chicago after all), but I don't think that counts. I'm really not sure if it was The Downward Spiral by Nine Inch Nails or Xtort and Nihil by KMFDM, I bought the latter two at the same time.

for a long time i did not even listen to music because i could never find what i liked until. i usually only saw bits and pieces of afx's come to daddy video but never really knew what it was. it wasn't until the breathe by prodigy that i decided to look for what i liked and it has came down to this.

I remember Amp! that show got me started on the right path! I remember seeing the video for "Second Bad Vilbel" and I couldn't pronounce Autechre's name (I wrote it down as "Autreche") but I knew somehow that they'd end up being two of my favourite music artists of all time.

depeche mode- music for the masses was my first. up until then I had been strictly heavy metal, punk and hardcore. Oddly though i bought it because i kept seeing all these people( mostly hot chicks) wearing all these DM shirts( a concert had just passed through from that tour, it peaked my curiousity and converted me.Now mostly electronic is what I listen to but not exclusively. Some people on this site are way more into than I am. I mean even Aphex is cool, but these people that call him "god" freak me out.

Umph, must have been Pet Shop Boys "Please" in 85? Then it was Depeche Mode... The first electronic "instrumental" music must have been Art of Noise. A great band, indeed!

Wip3out 2097 and Rage Racer for the PS introduced me to it. Wip3out had some good tunes by Cold Storage, and Rage Racer had some nice DnB tunes by a japanese artist. From there came Wip3out XL and Orbital.
I remember hearing Halcyon & On & On when I went to go see Mortal Kombat in the theaters.
Otherwise, I must say Wip3out's were an excellent beginning step.

My memory is pretty dim, it must have been Human League's "Dare" on cassette back in 1980 or so. I guess that qualifies as electronic.
I'm a bit embarrased to admit I liked the Human League, but I seem to remember that the album wasn't really so bad ...
