If u think about it, nobody beats the legendary four horsemen. Squarepusher, AFX, BOC and AE.
They all released the best albums when it comes to electronic music.
Just check it:
Draft 7.30/Confield
Drukqs
Geogaddi
and Go Plastic!!!
I still think these guys make the best electronic music, what do u think.
I dont think the "new talents" have anything on the legends like VS, Ovuca, Bogdan, Hecker Schirach etc etc
name the 4 best electronic albums since hmmmm lets say 97.

Yeah!!! I agree! I dont understand how some AFXs fans dont like this release when it contains all his style and some of his styles is even MEGA IMPROVED like those drill n bass parts. Ok then we got the piano parts, but I mean everyone must like a sweet melody now an then, and the piano is the sweetes instrument so WHY!??!

hard question!! i'd say, from what i have (more or less in order):
· Aphex Twin - 26 Mixes For Cash (· Squarepusher - Music Is Rotted One Note)* · Susumu Yokota - Sakura · Fluke - Risotto · Ken Ishii - Sleeping Madness · Squarepusher - Go Plastic · Photek - Modus Operandi · Plaid - Not For Threes · Bola - Fyuti · Autechre - Confield · Fluke - Puppy
(*...if that can be considered an electronic album!)
those are all great...
i don't consider Massive Attack to be electronic strictly (otherwise Mezzanine would surely be first on this list, and 100th Window would be in it too!)... nor The Young Gods nor any electronicy music, otherwise there would be far too many choices... =)
also Super Ae by the Boredoms would need to be in this list too but i'm not that sure, they're electronic or not, they're unclassifiable!!

ah, and put drukQs in this list too if you want.

Actually I think the piano bits are probably my fave bit of drukqs. I don't like the song that sounds like the interlude of a Michael Jackson vid, and I don't really like some of the synths he used on the Drill n bass stuff, which I'm not too fond of anyways.It doesn't stand out from anything I hear on this board so coming from Aphex Twin I'd expect to hear something better than that.Perhaps if he had put nr.10 of disc 2 on disc 1 and leave it at only at disc 1, I would've been more impressed. Just my 2 cents of course, everybody else seems to worship this release now.

DONT U EVEN GO THERE!!!!!!!!!!! and if u know anyone of even come near the class of Druks, for heavens sake, give me the name of that cat!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Actually I agree some of the synths on the drill tracks are a bit crappy - like Cock Ver 10 - but at the end of the day the beats are pounding.

Well I think plaid should be one off these horsemen....and VS, MIkE P, Bogdan Raczinsky, AnD Many many more, But then Again wHat's in A word: the four best albums?Most albums i've bought in the past years are great and my mood tells me what record or song is best for that moment..so I can't really say what's are the four best records. I'm listening to wevie de crepon right now and he made a great album, at the moment one of the best 4 albums I bought in the past years..

the synths on the drill tracks are retro a fucking amazing!!!!
Could it just be a matter of taste ? Definitly.
I repeat! If someone on this board make drill spastic "over ambitious" (in a positive way, like u spent months on one track type shit) amazing talented acid melodic spastic beautiful stuff like druks NAME HIM here and he will get a record deal faster than my eye blink.
Ok maybe not a record deal, cuz hes just a bitter biter afterall hehe

It's just that it's so much more difficult to write a gripping and moving melody requiring that special musical gift he has, such as next heap with, Alberto Balsam, wet tip hen ax, etc., using original sounds,rather than it is to write technically accomplished Drill 'n Bass tracks (which is basically nothing more than hard and dedicated work for him) you find on Drukqs using basic synths that sound like standard synths of any particular music program.

4 best electronic albums since '97... tough one, nigh impossible.
1- Aphex Twin- Drukqs 2- Autechre- Confield 3- Amon Tobin- Supermodified 4- Bola- Fyuti
Honoarble mentions go to Lexaunculpt- Blurring of Trees, Boards of Canada- Music has the Right to Children, Squarepusher- Go Plastic, and Freescha- Slower than Church Music. And, if it counts- M83- Dead Cities, Red Seas and Lost Ghosts.

This is electronic only, because if hip hop and rock were included... it would be a very different list:
the warp list: One Word Extinguisher Windowlicker Big Loada Confield Geogaddi
the rest list: Tides the Return of Fenno'Berg La Nouveau Pauvrete Stoke Songs About My Cats
