 | I like 'happy cycling', the track near the end of I care because you do, the one that loops 5 bars and......lots of
 debussy.... they make me feel melancholic sometimes..

 | as for individual tracks, my melancholic favorites are: 
 Squarepusher - Song: Our Underwater Torch & I Wish You Could
 Talk
 Aphex Twin -  Mookid
 
 when it comes to albums, i'd say Autechre’s  LP5 has that
 certain irresistible melancholic flavor all over it…
 
 …and as for non-IDM stuff, Eberhard Weber’s Pendulum is
 quite a moody thing

 | Jivver.. what is debussy? I always see that in the programs I work with but always thought it was someone's name.
 
 I've always thought drane2 was pretty powerful/intense in a
 melancoly kind of way. and that long, sprawling vietnam song
 on one of autechre's eps

 | Claude Debussy was a french composer, the same school as Ravel but even mor romantic.  Amon Tobin samples him to
 death... get 'La Mer' that's his most famous/accesible piece
 which is amazing.

 | La Mer is not his most famous piece... download Claire D'Lune, it's a piano solo that is absolutely brilliant
 
 Also, Arabesque 1 & 2, and Reverie

 | really? i've always thought 'iz us' was one of aphex's most melancholy tracks, and that flim has an odd bittersweet
 mixture of happiness and sadness that richard often seems to
 capture so well.
 
 i'd say squarepusher's 'my sound', isan's 'dilly', brian
 eno's 'always returning' and boc's 'everything you do is a
 balloon' are near the top as far as individual tracks go,
 and 'the tired sounds of stars of the lid' is definitely a
 melancholic electronic masterpiece album.
