halisray Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Lets make a thread about, in your opinion, what is the best, or the top 5 best electronic (idm/ambient/trip hop/trance, etc) albums of all time? I can't think right now so I'm going to sleep, but I thought it would be interesting to see people's choices, and this way gives others a chance to get into some really good albums. So let the listing begin!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beerwolf Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Off the top of my head..... Selected Ambient Works 1 Richard D James album Trans Europe Express Amber LP5 Selected Ambient Works 2 is a number one spot, but I respect it more than I love it. If you get my drift. And Venus 17 and Come to Daddy are great eps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cryptowen Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Changes constantly for me. With other types of music it's easier, but I just keep finding more good electronic music so it's impossible to keep a list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Z_B_Z Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Coil - Black Antlers interesting choice. why black antlers? for me (in no order)- throbbing gristle - 20 jazz funk greats manuel gottsching - e2-e4 suicide - s/t coil - loves secret domain boards of canada - geogaddi i would put autechre on there but for some reason i always end up having trouble enjoying their albums as a whole.

Guest Blanket Fort Collapse Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 all my favorite electronic albums have quite a few skip over weak irrelevant tracks in my opinion except for a few that don't quite reach the level of my favorite tracks on some records... I will just say my top 10 best of the best songs that I can think of at the moment I guess Bonobo - Ketto Amon Tobin - Big Furry Head Portishead - Humming Boards Of Canada - Dayvan Cowboy Aphex Twin - Nannou 2 o9 - Terminal Red Aphex Twin - Vordhosbn Squarepusher - U F O 's Over Leytonstone Death In Vegas - Dirge (Live) Squarepusher - My Sound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 second toughest in the infants orbus terrarum dead cities in sides frequencies i'm a product of the 90s.... great list! I'd definately agree with Dead Cities & In sides. So lets say: FSOL - Dead Cities Orbital - In Sides The Prodigy - Experience Amon Tobin - Permutation Autechre - LP5 AGGG... Massive Attack - Mezzanine (because I couldn't leave that one out) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
