I hate to admit this, but the first electronic album I
bought was Prodigy's cd... uhm, can't think of the title,
but it has "Firestarter", "Breathe", "Smack my bitch up" etc
etc on it. After discovering AFX and many others, I quickly
realized just how horrible Prodigy is. Yikes.

Whichever came first, Gary Numan's Pleasure Principle or
Human League's Dare. Late 70s, early 80s. Do those count?
First IDM probably was Orb's Adventures Beyond the
Ultraworld.

Orbital - Brown Album

I remember hearing Halcyon & On & On during the end of
Mortal Kombat in the theaters, that alone led me into
electronic.

I would say the first electronic album I got was Heaven and
Hell (1974) by Vangelis. The first electronic record I
bought was Blinkar Blå by Adolphson & Falk 1982. If we
consider more modern music it would perhaps be Incunabula by
Ae or Cascade by FSOL in 1993. I remember I really enjoyed
electronic music already as a little child, Popcorn being
the cheesy one... It reminded me of space and exploration of
the unknown. That´s what electronic music is about for me.
Hearing the unknown and exploring new worlds. Unfortunately
it seems very difficult to find something new these days.
All sounds, rythms, textures and songs have been played
before. Damn. I´m getting to old. I wish I could hear music
for the first time again. Keep rockin´ :-)

Freedom of Choice by DEVO

then Violater by Depeche Mode

Those are the very first electronic albums I got, maybe
their not straight up electronic music, but pretty
electronic and very good IMO!

I still listen to Devo and Depeche Mode a LOT
