Need to Hear Albums

Ok guys im trying to get some EDM albums that are "need to hear" for anyone in the EDM scene. Just want to start building a collection. They can be a new album that's awesome or an older album that is a classic or an unknown album that u think is awesome! So if you guys can suggest me some albums to check out that would be awesome!

Here are some of my recomendations:

Andy Hunter - Exodus
Sasha - Involver
Andy Hunter - Life

So if you guys could suggest some for me that would be awesome, doesn't matter what genre they are, thanks!

PS - i did a search couldnt find anything like this if there is please point me in the right direction! Thanks!

Leftfield - Leftism
Orbital - Orbtial 2 ("The Brown Album")
Kruder & Dorfmeister - The K&D Sessions
The Future Sound of London - Lifeforms
Autechre - Their first 3 albums (everything else they've done after that is overly complex garbage noise)
The Orb - The Orb's adventures beyond the ultraworld
St Germain - Tourist

Those are off top of my head, my personal favs anyway.

Okay, the following is an attempt to set aside personal biases and list the albums I believe to combine historical importance, popularity and critical acclaim in the last twenty years, with only one selection per artist:

Adam F - Colours
Air - Moon Safari
Aphex Twin - Selected Ambient Works II
Autechre - Tri Repartae
Boards Of Canada - Music Has The Right To Children
BT - This Binary Universe
Burial - Untrue
Chicane - Far From The Maddening Crowds
Daft Punk - Homework
The Future Sound Of London - Lifeforms
Global Communication - 76:14
Goldie - Timeless
Leftfield - Leftism
LSG - Into Deep
Massive Attack - Blue Lines
Nightmares On Wax - Smoker's Delight
The Orb - The Orb's Adventures Beyond The Ultraworld
Orbital - Brown Album
Plastikman - Sheet One
The Prodigy - Music For The Jilted Generation
Roni Size & Reprazent - New Forms
DJ Shadow - Endtroducing
Underworld - Dubnobasswithmyheadman
UNKLE - Psyence Fiction
Vitalic - OK Cowboy

Not necessarily my personal list of favourite albums, but certainly a list of "big" albums every fan of dance music should be familiar with, with some I've doubtlessly forgotten.

I would recommend Ulrich Schnauss' "A Strangely Isolated Place" and "Far Away Trains Passing By" as some pretty essential, solid listening (though the jury's still out on "Goodbye" for me).

Also:

M83- Before the Dawn Heals Us

This thread makes me remember that no matter how long and hard I might explore, I will miss out on a huge amount of quality electronic music.

Yeah, but luckily the majority of it is disposable anyway.

Actually, I missed the key word there. Though I do believe actual quality EDM is not that common... but that's not related to this thread.
