06.17.24 | Annual sput massive electronic list that gets about 5 bumps and 2 new ratings but is somehow worth it anyway
recs are for all, p indiscriminate mix of basic and semi-basic names, all are good all are recommended, list of further releases follows a suggested listening order
gtg to the airport will add to this later, we are going all the way to 100 b a b e e |

06.17.24 | Great reminder that I've been meaning to check Amon Tobin for months now
Sexy list, sexy user, will bump 5 of these and maybe rate 2 of them just 4 u 🫶 |

@ryus how do you listen to most of your music? A lot of the mixtapes you recommend aren't on Spotify or Bandcamp from what I've looked for |
Ryus
06.17.24 | if its a mix and its not on spotify/bandcamp then usually youtube first if they have it, then soulseek |
Ryus
06.17.24 | 65 is great
ulysees by shogun is prob my favorite atmo dnb tune ever tho
might need to make a list |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.17.24 | Yes plz to a big ol atmo dnb hit-these singles list (I normally hit one or two singles or EPs at a time having researched em, but would love a backlog to grind there). Been meaning to peep more from 46 and 82 |

06.17.24 | lots of v good shit here. Nice to see Ralph Myerz, always good to see Macraroom. Some lovely staples and loads of other stuff I enjoy (and a handful where I'm thinking... what dis?). Nice mix.
been attempting to review Laika in what feels like forever, sort of gave up, but now have a resurgence of "I must finish what I started" - even if it sucks) |

protokute
06.17.24 | For anyone interested in good Trance, definitely dig into curator YouTube channels such as Trance Classics and 2trancentral.
Chicane's Far From The Maddening Crowd and Behind The Sun are good listens, although mostly more on the ambient side. The Tiesto compilation album In Search of Sunrise 1 (1999) and the first 3 A State of Trance compilations are excellent and a great introduction to the more euphoric side of Trance.
Eye Q compilations such as Behind The Eye are incredible and show how beautifully and truly psychedelic Trance can be. Far from the bs that is called "Psy Trance" today.
Om's Instant Enlightenment and Doof's Let's Turn On are great Goa Trance albums.
There are some unbelievable goated mixes from Judge Jules, Paul Oakenfold, Tiesto, Matt Darrey from the 90's on YouTube. |
protokute
06.17.24 | where is Orbital??? |
anode
06.17.24 | I think xiu xiu deserves a spot on this. Although they’re kinda electronic adjacent, they are kinda essential in the genre. Idk if it really fits on the list though given the singing is so prominent |
brainmelter
06.17.24 | high quality list! there’s a bunch of goodies on here, going to check out 27 and 69 |
VlacDrac
06.17.24 | Xiu Xiu is not essential at all, even less so to Electronic Dance Music. |
Demon of the Fall
06.17.24 | “Idk if it really fits on the list though given the singing is so prominent“
hmm, not sure either but the prominence of vocals aren’t the issue. Agreed with adjacent, but then a few others included are in a similar boat too. Great band |
Demon of the Fall
06.17.24 | “Electronic Dance Music.“
wat? I mean if that’s the criteria much of this list is inaccurate, lol |
VlacDrac
06.17.24 | There are several albums and singles who fit this criteria. |
neekafat
06.17.24 | Holy shit this is monumental, will be referring to this for much time to come. Seems like I’ve got a bit of a head start (;
“Where is Orbital??” [2] |
Ladron93
06.17.24 | Aphex Twin (SAW 1), Crystal Castles, Massive Attack, Underworld and Ryuichi Sakamoto are the ones I like the most in your list. |

anode
06.17.24 | "Xiu Xiu is not essential at all, even less so to Electronic Dance Music."
electronic dance music isnt the parameters of this list lol |
VlacDrac
06.17.24 | Why don't you include everything from Throbbing Gristle to Robert Hood to Stockhausen for good measure while you are at it? |
GiaNXGX
06.17.24 | my music ‘could be on the list, some of it autechre indebted but still |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.17.24 | Orbital, Gas, Drexciya, Kode9 and the Prodigy/Chem Bros are all defs some of the ames that might have made this, isn't a top 100 or anything and was thrown together pretty haphazardly (would add em now, but am on a phone browser for the next few days and can't hack the dev console)
Xiu Xiu are v much essential to their niche, but the qualities I like most about them have p little to do with electronic music, so didn't cross my mind
>as much as I don’t like wanna support 10 for what he did, there should be a + for The Nothings of the North
You're probably right tbh, am due a relisten of that one - bounced off me when I first spun it, but I dig more understated glitch much more than back then (and fuck that guy fr, beautiful tunes but hope he's out of the game for good)
>Check out Klatu - Mutual, and in the mean time (if I remember) I’ll sort you some DnB rec’s
Nice, cheers - I'll peep this and hit you up soon as I'm back on my pc |

06.17.24 | big lists like this are the lifeblood of sputnik and they should be encouraged/cherished/ball fondled |
jrlikestodance
06.17.24 | I definitely want to make a list like this at some point. Other list ideas are in the process tho |
lols
06.17.24 | this is a very narrow lens to look at electronic through ngl
good idea but there’s more to the genre than all this mensa fodder |
Ryus
06.17.24 | drop the list sach 😋 |
lols
06.17.24 | I’ll need to add a bit for the db but leave it with me
does this place accept singles yet? |
jrlikestodance
06.17.24 | I've had to put em under EPs whenever I had something added. Looking forward to your list |
protokute
06.17.24 | the big issue with electronic lists is that most good stuff are singles |
anode
06.17.24 | damn the qualities i like about xiu xiu are directly related to their use of electronics. i feel like they are total pioneers of the offbeat and unconventional use of electronics. 20,000 deaths for eidelyn gonzales is insane |
jrlikestodance
06.17.24 | True but I would rather have 1-3 amazing songs than an album of mid |
Hyperion1001
06.17.24 | we should force mx to add all music ever made to the db |
lols
06.17.24 | could free some server space by getting rid of all the lame ass prog metal |

06.17.24 | Less prog more rave [2] |
VlacDrac
06.18.24 | "the big issue with electronic lists is that most good stuff are singles"
More like the big issue with SputnikMusic users is that they are used to the LP format and don't usually have the appreciation for singles which is the preferred format of choice when it comes to Electronic Dance Music. |
jrlikestodance
06.18.24 | Album-centrism is a myth! |
protokute
06.18.24 | I meant that because mods explicitly say that we should abstain from adding singles to the db, because the site can't deal with it |
VlacDrac
06.18.24 | LMAO, they really said that? |

06.18.24 | yes.
