- Kieran should be way in the middle, then Autechre and Amon more close together, Amon Tobin and Squarepusher, but start with Tycho then maybe Moderat/Apparatgrafician
- then a long way 'till Jon Hopkins and Caribou, not to mention Nosaj Thing and Trentemøller and so on, up to even Bjork :))grafician
- you got yourself into a LOT of music exploration my friend hehegrafician
- good to see MoM get a shout on this - often overlooked. this is the biggest and tbh most 'dated' sounding album by each artist, not their best.kingsteven
- and everything post 2000 (note the two american artists) is another 'generation' of music. although fridge were incredible pre-fortet - thats all post kid a.kingsteven
- which is where the carbon dating on originality in electronic music gets fucked up post-plinkerpopkingsteven
- and all these artists (and beyond) were listening to coil, oval, pan sonic etc and mixing it with dance genreskingsteven
- floating points had one decent tune on the album before this, no idea why he's there hahkingsteven
- but Floating Points is so great.CyBrainX
- just being cheeky, it just seems nuts that there's an arrow from hard normal daddy... could be any electronic record in the preceding 23 years.kingsteven
- Floating points would seem to me to be more influenced by Detroit and Avant Garde/ Jazz. Is Carl Craig IDM now? Miles Davis?kingsteven
- i feel so intelligent after listening to all of thismilfhunter
- worst 'genre' of all time. if anything the drugs i took trying to dance to it knocked a few points offkingsteven
- All genres are awful. They provoke silly arguments and should only be used in retail situations or by streaming services for people to search for new music.CyBrainX
- i mean the name, it infers intelligence on the listener over regular dance music, hideous :(... the 'artificial intelligence' comp suggests the opposite.kingsteven
- ^ Agreed. It's absurd. Also, I would love to see someone dancing to Aphex Twin or Autechre.CyBrainX
- Just made a playlist with all of these albums.stoplying
- Not sure I’ve been to a more banging, intense and purely beautiful gig than seeing Aphex. Highly danceable stuffIanbolton
- And yeah, why the hell are Floating Points in here? You’d be better off slapping early Chemical Brothers or Prodigy in thereIanbolton
- Ignore that last comment. I’m obviously too baked to make a coherent argument for those choicesIanbolton
- I don't know of anyone down under here that would even say Intelligent Dance Music. Not back then either.sab
- only americans that didn't understand dance music could consider it a positivekingsteven
