Top Ten Electronic/alternative Albums


Based not only on musical tastes but in the quality they were recorded in. I listen to some jazz and blues, and alot of classic rock but I feel this genre of music, both Alternative and Electronic music is often overlooked.
lush
Amon Tobin
- Out From Out Where

This is some of the most musically and sonically interesting electronica I know. If you like it, check out the previous album
- Supermodified
and the following album
- Chaos Theory

For something a little more chilly and abstract:

Autechre
- Amber
- Tri Repetae
- LP5
While i don't listen to much electronic music, i do enjoy
Massive Attack. Blue Lines and love St Germaine. Tourist.
The group: Caribou - The CD: The Milk of Human Kindness

is eclectic and ever evolving, one I currently enjoy..
agreed on aphex twin's selected ambient II (most his stuff is good to great, with a few exceptions)

clouddead- ten
boards of canada- music has a right to the children
can- tago mago (although my friend said this was top ten music went it was released in germany- so it is not exactly alternative)

nurse with wound- spiral insana
hood- cold house- interesting version of early 90s british drone rock, electronics and hiphop

my bloody valentine- glider ep
olivia tremor control- black forest
autechre- chiastic slide
miles davis- panthalassa (while their are many good lps from miles' fusion period, this is an excellent remix by jack of all trades producer bill laswell using the best tracks of miles' fusion period)
