For some reason I thought Orblivion came before Orbus Terrarum, so I'm revising my statement to say:

This is one of the best albums ever. The first few Orb albums are all classics. I'd say all the way up to Orblivion.

Other great albums of the time are Future Sounds of London's Lifeforms and Dead Cities. Aphex Twin's Selected Ambient Works Volume II and Richard D. James Album are great too.

Don't know Demon! It isn't my mega fave either, but a 2.5 is pushing it...



GOOD list park, it indeed could go on forever, especially also including Mille Plateaux/Chain Reaction stuff and the like.





EDIT AAH I was too slow! 🐌

--underworld, aphex, orbital, future sound of london, the klf, prodigy, leftfield, the orb, autechre, fluke, u-ziq, ltj bukem, 808 state, drexciya... could go on forever--

You've inspired me to go on a 90s electro trip today at work.

I have to address the 'whats' above and perhaps revisit a couple. 90s rule though, undoubtedly. Peak decade for me.

"Peak decade for me."

Same. For many genres, but especially for most electronic genres.

most electronic genres, most metal genres, maybe indie, possibly post-rock, definitely hxc orientated stuff. Plenty of things I'm not even into but undoubtedly peaked in the 90s... you know what I mean.

Fuuuuuck!

Hip hop! And lots of tasty mingling of genres of course.

Was thinking about Trip Hop too but I figured it would be covered by the electronic genres already since people often place it there. A bit silly, in my opinion, but still.

'Was thinking about Trip Hop too but I figured it would be covered by the electronic genres already since people often place it there. A bit silly, in my opinion, but still.'

Needs it's own category to separate it from plebeian genres... i.e. ones that aren't Trip Hop.

If I could only listen to 3 (sub)genres for the rest of my life I'd seriously consider Trip Hop despite the supposed huge dip in quality after x number of releases and it being mostly contained to 1.5 decades. If I can have Downtempo included as a related add-on, then I'd take it.

(other two being death + post metal)

Trip Hop would probably be one of my choices too, so many fantastic records. Hard choice though 😵
