Also worth checking out...
some Cabaret Voltaire
some of Tangerine Dream
if you like ambient, Steve Roach
soulwax - any minute now.. or was it nite versions..? awwwwwwwesome
I've got the original Renassiance triple mix on CD. It dropped in price as soon as they released the remastered version a few years ago (with different tracks due to licensing in a few places).
I don't think the whole mix is as good as people say it is. Some great moments for sure, but very much of the time.
I love prog house from mid 90s though.
Reload - A Collection of Short Stories
Yes - got that.
Just listening to this on Youtube the other day...
Loads of great stuff already mentioned. Adding anything I've not heard of before to a list.
One I like a lot:
Seefeel - Quique and the other album that they did
Seefeel:
Seefeel:
This thread just keeps on giving!
Monkey Mafia - Shoot the Boss (amazing at T in The Park)
Slam - Alien Radio(a modern classic)
Someone said LFO. Brilliant!
Shut down - awesome
Also Kombat Drinking, Physchadelik and Butterslut tracks.
Some great moments for sure
The bit where Bladerunner meets Inner City...
A couple of other good albums from the early-mid 90s:
Spooky [i]Gargantuan[/i]
Sven Väth [i]Accident in Paradise[/i]
The Infinite Wheel [i]The Infinite Wheel[/i]
Still listen to 'em regularly.

I didn't know they'd released it again.
I listened to Sasha's Involver today and it got me revved up, I'll have to dig out my renaissance CDs and them an airing.
Also already mentioned...
System 7 - major fan of trippy dippy Steve Spillage plus electronics.
Dare I say it, Shamen did a few ok things amongst the novelty records.
The Orb, of course
Derr Dritte Raum. Not classic really. But some great bouncy grooves with 303s and stuff.
Famous for Hale Bopp:
My list of new stuff is about 25 lines long now. Off to listen.
Rennaisance triple mix - yes they remastered it in about 2009. That made the original drop in price, so I picked an original up on CD for around £20 rather than the £70+ that it had got to.
I've got most of the Northern Exposure and Global Underground mixes from Sasha and Digweed and then onto Transitions. Gradually got a bit bored with the minimal stuff that Digweed got into, though still some great moments in it. Too much of an acquired taste and even then I'm not sure.
No mention of Faithless yet - Outrospective.
Probably for another discussion thread this one...
I've been doing a lot of Youtube research recently. I've trawled through a lot of trance from the last few years. Conclusion: most of it is a bit tedious I've found a few things worthy of consideration though.
I rate this:
Alex Pich - Tinctures
And this: Alex M.O.R.P.H. redlight dub of Shivers
Properly messy and acidic
PVD - Nothing but you (Super8 and Tab remix)
2:25 onwards, helps that the vocals are properly beautiful I suppose
very long build.

Update on mid 90s prog house really.
Also from my youtube favourites list:
Kissy Sell out - Redrinkulous.
Can't knock this for beered up optimism. First DJ/producer that actually excited/interested me after months of looking at the same old stuff.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GLZjx3f38L4
System 7 - Berimbou http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ouLZ1_u-Gqw
The Orb vs Wendy and Lisa - Staring at the sun http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sQO1jT50dx4&list=FLz-k5nwe1_Oml0euF2WpwWg&index=169&feature=plpp_video
Shamen - Monoriff http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d5HEfmrJH8s
Chris Coco - 8088 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k0Ak_WE7Ts8
Chris Coco - Heavy Mellow (Jon Hopkins mix) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9SjxfOAEGeY
Jon Hopkins and Ulrich Schnauss both worthy of investigation
Robert Babicz - Pink Trees http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=StdFy0Et3lg&list=FLz-k5nwe1_Oml0euF2WpwWg&index=147&feature=plpp_video
Pawas - Rainy Days http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fosrGPn_bYo&list=FLz-k5nwe1_Oml0euF2WpwWg&index=11&feature=plpp_video
One classic bit of Italio house. Listented to this several times a night for a while.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J4QBpDcGPWc
I'll get me coat
Too many to think of, however one that has always stayed in the Car has been Layo and Bushwacka - Low Life - 2000.
This takes me back.....
Not an album, although Unkle and Evil Nine have produced some great albums, however i thought i would share this as i believe its worthy, judge for yourself...................................................
Many of my favourites already mentioned +
Trans global underground - dream of a 1000 nations
Dreadzone - 360degrees
New Order, [i]Power, Corruption & Lies[/i]
[i]Substance[/i] is a compilation so I don't count that
-10 for [i]Leftism[/i]. I just don't think it's aged well and have removed pretty much all of it from my iPod.
Totally forgot about one of my all time favourites
moodymann - black mahogani
+1 for Power, Corruption & Lies!
Good call that man.
Leftism...Space Shanty is one of my fave biking tracks. But I agree that some of it has dated.
OK not an album, but love this
Have not had any Wagon Christ yet, so Phat Lab Nightmare, great trippy ambient album.
Anyone mention Coldcut JDJ yet?
And what about It's Not Intelligent...
Of it's time as they say, but what a time 😈
I am not an electronic music fan but love Blue Lines.
Dj Red Alert (kiss Fm NYC) and was on the major force LP's on Mo wax - this is the shizzle and fresh 20 yrs later 8)

6 pages of good stuff. Good to see T-Power mentioned RichPenny, I love that album, Waveform too.
A few to add to the list,
FUSE - Dimension Intrusion
Laurent Garnier (it's difficult to choose a particular)
Alex Reece - So Far
"6 pages of good stuff" - +1
underworld,Leftfield , Daft Punk ,Chemical Bros & soulwax are up there but..for me , it has to be
Sabres Of Paradise - Haunted Dancehall .
It reminds me of some fairly extreme 😯 😀 times and still sounds fresh/scary now.
try listening to it in woody singletrack on your lonesome!
Fad Gadget Under the Flag
Apart from the classics already mentioned, how about:
UNKLE - War Stories
Sub Sub - Full Fathom Five
Maps - We Can Create
Portishead - Third
Jam & Spoon - Tripomatic Fairytales (both volumes)
The Beloved - Blissed Out
The Beta Band - 3 EPs
D*Note - D*Note
New Order - Factus 8
Have these had a mention yet?
Catching up with this thread. Very glad to have been reminded of T Power by RichPenny. I pretty much agree that Leftism hasn't aged well - just doesn't seem multi-layered enough. However nothing beats listening to dubnobasswithmyheadman late at night on a train or bus.
I'll add Omni Trio's The Haunted Science, on the grounds that it's awesome.
For me I'd be hard pushed to choose between:
Music for the Jilted Generation
and
Endtroducing
Both completely blew me away when I first heard them.
Seba - Return to Forever
Fanu - Daylightless
Fracture & Neptune - Retrospect
Aisan Dub Foundation - Rafi's Revenge
Intense - Logical Progression
Apollo 440 - Millenium Fever
Thievery Corporation - The Mirror Conspiracy
Smith & Mighty - Big World Small World
Aim - Cold Water Music
Shapeshifter - Soulstice
Radiohead - Kid A (Don't know if this counts)
Some of these choices lean a bit towards Drum and Bass, but I like it!
Oh Dear. I think there is a massive glaring omission from this list.
Layo and Bushwaker - Low life and Night works.
For the Guy that hadn`t ever heard Second toughest in the infants. I wish i had the ability to rediscover that and enjoy hearing again for the first few times. Such and amazing album - Life changing actually.
Athgray. A few years ago i would have said that Radiohead definitely dont count but have had a complete turnaround on their music and think the definitely come some where under this forum.
Also has there been any mention of the truly great Sven Vath?
Thanks for a great thread one and all. So many greats in there. Spent a pleasant few hours listening to various Boards of Canada long players on the Linn.
If there's a family tree, the one song I can trace it all back to is Numbers by Kraftwerk. Electronica, Hip-Hop, the lot. Such an amazing song that still gives me goosebumps today.
Wait4me, what an good call!!
Listening to Computer World now after reading your post, goosebumps indeed. The song Computer World 2 must be one of the prettiest things ever.
Been listening to Kraftwerk since I was about 11, way back in the early '80s.
Own every single album and a huge fan, my fave band by a country mile.
corroded - thanks for that, it's made a sunday morning stuck in swatting a whole lot more pleasurable. love omni trio
Ooh, and while I'm at it, i can't mention Kraftwerk without bringing up Planet Rock by Afrika Bambaataa. Boo-Hiss for suing for the sample though boys!
Most of the classics already mentioned numerous times but in addition
Trentmoeller - The Last Resort + Into the Great Wide Yonder
PVT - O Soundtrack my Heart
Nathan Fake - Drowning in a Sea of Love
Death In Vegas - Trans Love Energies
Plastikman - Sheet one
Cluster - Zuckerzeit
Clark - Totems Flare
M83 - All of them
The Knife - Deep Cuts
Also a bit off topic but FSOL as Amorphous Androgynous in a psych rock/folk direction with The Isness is epic. Their mixes under the same moniker are pretty decent too.
*Ahem* 6 pages and no..
Shall we increase the tempo?
Oh? a little more? *caution: naughty words*
