Best (electronic) albums of the decade
View this Thread in Original format

Very basic request here. Over at CMG we're putting together our End Of Decade lists and there are 20 slots going for dance music and another 20 for ambient/experimental. I want to make an informed vote on the best albums of the last decade, but there are absolutely loads I've missed out or passed by. So I'm planning to lay down as much money as possible between now and NYE on '00s albums.

I want everyone to name the dance/electronic albums of the '00s they believe I should check out. I don't want massive, sprawling lists of every album you quite liked, because I can't afford to spend too much. I want the two or three albums you passionately believe I absolutely must listen to before any others.

If you don't really buy albums: off.
If you're going to mention something blindingly obvious, like Untrue or Discovery: off.
If your album of choice has someone's face on the front: off.

Go go go!

Hm, I need to think about this a bit.

Compilations count too? They are much more interesting then artist albums to me.
SYSTEM-J
No, compilations don't count. It's opening a far too massive can of worms.

Woh the whole decade eh?

Right off the top of my head I think Gui Boratto's Chromophobia and Hercules and Love Affair need to be on there.

edit // The Fuckpony album has Jay Haze's face animated/skewed on the front, but it's really good!

I'm guessing no mix cds (ala Global Underground)?

Damn, this one is going to take some thinking.

IDM/Ambient including or pure EDM?



If its pure EDM then i'll have to think it a bit lol.
