Fuck yeah. I havent gotten fully into this one yet, but I listened through it on YouTube or something after that awesome article on IDM in Miami, and it sounds amazing. Everything by Phoenicia is classic

Prince & the revolution - Parade

 

the synapses this album created to my brain eventually led me to jazz, industrial and Ae.

i was 14 when i first listened to this beauty...

... 'Orbus Terrarum' the Orb ...

Me too, easily.

plus, "Mother Fist and Her Five Daughters" by Marc Almond & the Willing Sinners 

Paul Simon's "Rhythm of the Saints" and Petar Dundov "Ideas from the Pond" -

all most played, most joy, consistently...

Always curious when someone does not what their favourite might be, but I suppose only time can tell...

DJ Shadow - Endtroducing

 

Heard it when I was 13 and nothing has beaten it since

same

 

Who would've guessed huh? haha

 

Preemptive Strike comes very close as well for me. Just about any early Shadow stuff is masterpiece material.
