Best Electronic Music

A list of my personal favorite ambient/electronic/techno/dub/whatever ralbums of all time. In no particular order.
1Biosphere
Substrata


This album made Biosphere a legend. Incredibly atmospheric and haunting.
Recommended tracks: Everything.
2 Woob
Woob 1194


Brilliant stuff. Fantastic synthesizer, percussion and vocal samples by Paul
Frankland, very moving. "On Earth" is one of the greatest single tracks ever.
3Gas
Pop


Mesmerizing. An underwater rave, then in a forest and on a mountain.
4Biosphere
Cirque


Grievously underrated. Genius percussion-based ambient-dub album, atmospheric.
Conjures up a unique mood. Special credit go to "Le Grand Dome" and "Too Fragile
To Walk On."
5 Deepchord Presents Echospace
The Coldest Season


It's cold. It really is.
6Tetsu Inoue
Ambiant Otaku


I hate using the world "beautiful" in regards to music, but this is an exception.
Genius ambient house.
7Global Communication
76:14


Indescribable. Sorry, but you simply must hear it. Totally unique and inimitable.
Recommended: "12:18," "7:39."
8Yagya
Rigning


Great album. Ethereal, more "floaty," perhaps, than "The Coldest Season." Soothing.
9The Future Sound of London
Lifeforms


Wow. What's there to say? Organic techno/dance with outstanding variety. Catchy
and quirky. Recommended: "Eggshell," "Vertical Pig," "Among Myselves."
10Gas
Gas 0095


The single catchiest electronic album imaginable. Great electronic effects,
especially on "Microscopic" and "Mathematics and Electronics."
11Aphex Twin
Selected Ambient Works 85-92


A revolutionary, groundbreaking work. Recommended: "Green Calx," "Tha."
12Brian Eno
Ambient 4: On Land


Amazing and varied instrumentation. A genre-definer. Recommended: "Tal Coat."
13Steve Roach
Dreamtime Return


This is the single best Berlin School ambient album, great tribal elements.
Recommended: "A Circular Ceremony," "Towards The Dream," "The Continent."
14 Various Artists
em:t 0004


Great variety of tracks, especially good work from Sub, High Skies, Andy Hughes,
International Peoples Gang.
15Tim Hecker
Harmony In Ultraviolet


Glitch electronic, strangely beautiful in its desolation.
16Tim Hecker
Ravedeath, 1972


Far more refined than "Harmony," eerie, decaying.
17 Steve Roach, Kevin Braheny, Michael Stearns, Richard Burmer
Desert Solitaire


Welcome to the desert, courtesy of some of the biggest names in ambient music.
Recommended: "A Story From The Rain."
18 The Higher Intelligence Agency and Biosphere
Polar Sequences


Innovative live collaboration between two innovators, creative use of samples and
beats. Recommended track: "Cimmerian Shaft."
19 Robert Rich & Lustmord
Stalker


The scariest album of all time. Period.
20 Pete Namlook & Mixmaster Morris
Dreamfish


Amazing synths from the prolific FAX label boss. RIP Pete Namlook.
21 Steve Roach and Robert Rich
Strata


Surreal, hypnotic synths, if you want tribal ambient, this is it. Quite disturbing in
parts. Recommended: "Mica," "La Luna," "The Persistence of Memory," "Forever."
One of the best collaborations of all time.
