List your 10 most essential electronic music albums ever in no particular order. It would be nice for us to find out to see if we got em all...maybe I have missed one "essential" must have album :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Karma by Delerium, the only totally essential trance album |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
COOL. MORE LISTS!!!! I like a good list now and again. It's stops me thinking about how sad and empty my life is. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
why the need for this thread? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
um... so that we can compare people's top ten essential albums? I can't list ten because I usually burn individual tracks and make amazing compilations mwa ha ha! |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
Rod Stewart does IDM - Live |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i couldnt make a full top 5 list, but i know Boards of canada - Geogaddi would be in there. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm sure your life isn't sad and empty. favorite albums at the moment: "Tubular Bells", Mike Oldfield "ESCM", BT "The Brown Album", Obital "Drukqs", Aphex Twin "Closer", Plastikman "Rossz Csillag Allat Szuletett", Venetian Snares "Blade Runner", Vangelis "Chiastic Slide", Autechre "Dead Cities", Future Sound of London "Go Plastic", Squarepusher |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh, replace the Mike Oldfield one with BoC Geogaddi. This is electronic albums, I forgot. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||

she's cool, though unfortunately my minute weasel brain doesn't usually get her jokes |
||||||||

*laughs* |
||||||||

|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I enjoy the strips from time to time, but I don't really buy the albums and stuff... the chick who draws nemi is sometimes hot sometimes not... I don't know why, but I see her walking downtown at times, and sometimes I'm all like "oh, yeah! you fuck me, I fuck you!!" and other times I'm all "ah, ah! you gon have to PAY for this, sucka bitch!" |
||||||||

Sorry. Don't do well with top tens. The best I could give you is 20 essential. All these are brilliant in their own way. Massive attack - Messanine Daft Punk - Homework Autechre - EP7 Matt Elliot - The Mess We Made The Orb - Orbus Terrerum Boards of Canada - Music has the Right to Children Aphex Twin - Select Ambient Works vol 2 Rhythm and Sound - With The Artists/The Versions Thomas Brinkmann - Concept 1 96 Plastikmann - Consumed Richard Devine - Asect:Dsect Einoma - Milla Toverna Jega - Geometry Loscil - Third Narrows Alva Noto - Transall cycle 1-3 Opiate - While you were sleeping T Rauschmere - Radio Blackout Machine Drum - Now You Know Secret Frequency Crew - Forrest of the Echo Downs Harmonic 33 - Extraordinary People |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've always felt that jega - geometry was missing something very important in lots of places. did you get high and think it was the shit? or is it just your opinion, which is fine too :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Heh... I gave you a serious answer and everyone else starts taking the piss. Its usually the other way around... heh |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
um...cool? i didnt even know there were albums, i just read the strips in the metro (british newspaper)... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
No... I have listened to it hundreds of times. There are a couple songs that hit such a brilliant place that I can't quite describe it. Static is so perfect it nearly ruined IDM for me. Its was also really cold though. Maybe you felt it was lacking emotion? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and the geometry track on that album was so perfect it nearly ruined IDM for me! But then I leveled it off with some hasty boom alert. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

Well done for listing New Order Technique, I'd have rated that as one of the best electronic albums about 15 years ago, Now it's just one of the best pop albums, still fantastic though. |
