After picking up Kraftwerk's "Minimum-Maximum" and Gary Neuman's "Replicas" this past year, I'd like to get some other LP's of synth-based music. Any suggestions?
If you'd like a very different example of electronic music which is on the quiet and haunting side check out James Blake self titled. Sort of a dubstep Bon Iver sound.
A name you would not normally associate with Electonica, Sufjan Stevens, also has some interesting electronic music in his catalog. "Enjoy Your Rabbit" is an early one and his latest, "The Age Of Adz" is very much in the genre.
I've been infatuated with the producer Brock Van Wey the last few years. White Clouds Drift On And On is essential but is skyrocketing in price. I'd HIGHLY suggest tracking down The Art Of Dying Slowly from last year before it does the same. He used the moniker Bvdub for that one. It's like the iciest of Biosphere's ambience mixed with the Gas album Pop. It's nearly perfect.
Synthfreak, You mean "The art of dying alone" from last year. I had bought that one last year and just yesterday picked up the only copy they had at the Amoeba -Tribes at temple of silence. will have to look for the white clouds..
If you like bvdub, other one to check out is the setting sun from Variant. Also notable is 'K' from Dozzy Donato- very minimal
