I thought we could share the albums we liked or enjoyed, album meaning no compilation, it's rare to talk about album with electronic music I've noticed, but there are quite a lot of them actually; ex :
Scooter - Wicked!
Tiesto - In my memory
Darude - before the storm ( I'm not sure I had enjoyed as much as I think, nostalgia blabla )
Kai tracid - trance and acid
Sash! - trilenium

basshunter the old shit
basshunter lol (first version)
and all andy blueman?s EP |
| Lensherr |
I even liked a lot bass generation, but saying that on this forum can leads to flaming toward the artist. :p |
| Samination |
depending on what is considered to electronic(a), these are the albums I like:
Scooter - Rough and Tough and Dangerous - The Singles 94-98 (best of collection)
Jean-Michel Jarre - Oxygene (Parts 1 to 7)
Daft Punk - DISCOvery
Galbatron - Robotica
Royksopp - The Understanding
Royksopp - Junior
Trio Tetris - Heavy Elevator |
| latininxtc |
Some of the older albums I loved were
Eiffel 65- Europop
Aqua- Aquarium
Aqua- Aquarius
Vengaboys
Sure they were a cheesy bunch, but I honestly found their stuff well put together, and some of them pretty eclectic. |
| Lensherr |
That's the kind of answers I was awaiting, great albums choice! Cheesy album is nice too. |

BT - This Binary Universe
BT - Movement In Still Life (UK Special Edition)
DJ Quicksilver - Quicksilver
ATB - Movin' Melodies
Infected Mushroom - Legend of The Black Shawarma
Infected Mushroom - Converting Vegetarians |
| Quicksilver |
I'm confused as to what you would define as "electronic", you've listed techno and trance albums there as well as "pure" electronic music (now I know there is no such genre as "electronic" but when I hear "electronic" I think of the albums I've listed below, most of them electronic pop):
I'm a huge fan of Goldfrapp, so pretty much all their albums but their electronic ones are Black Cherry, Supernature and Head First. Supernature is my least fave of those but possibly their most electronic album.
Others that I can think of at the moment:
Eisbrecher - Eisbrecher / Antik?rper (their two first are the two best albums, Eisbrecher being more electronic, Antik?rper being more metal)
The Knife - Silent Shout
Kreidler - Kreidler (some absolute lush tunes from that album, a pretty unknown German act, check out "Mnemorex" and "Circles")
Leftfield - Leftism / Rhythm & Stealth
Lost Signal - Catharsis
R?yksopp - The Understanding

I just took it to mean dance music, I didn't/don't own many artist albums most of the stuff I have is compilations and single downloads |
| Lensherr |
Electronic music is music that employs electronic musical instruments and electronic music technology in its production.
Here is an interesting extensive list of electronic musical genre : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_electronic_music_genres
Just found it, pretty interesting, some genres I need to go deeper into !
Yea, electronic music listeners tend to listen more to the compilations than to the albums of the artists, probably because it usually is more EP or album with only 1 song and 10 remix of the same songs, but I feel like there are a lot of very good albums that are forgotten, that is why I made this thread, it's hard to find these albums just by searching on google, forum is beast for such quest ! |

So, anything since the introduction of the electric guitar? =P |
| Lensherr |
I agree with you mate, that's why I posted a link of the genre just below, with electronic music, it's not easy to differenciate everything! I hope it's clear enough tho.
I'm gonna add :
Alice deejay - Who needs guitars anyway?
I love that album. |
| Quicksilver |
But with that definition, I can pretty much write 85% of my album collection. :P |

Each of these, at most, have only one song on them that I either dislike or don't see anything special in. An asterisk means I love every song on the album.
Gonna take a look into your suggestions, but It was meant to be 'no compilation'.

If I said that I really used to love the old Clubland albums (up until about the 14th/15th lol) would that be bad? :P
xD |
| Lensherr |
well clubland are compilation, personally, I really liked the first 3 or 4, but I hadn't had the time to listen to the rest yet. |
| latininxtc |
What about mixed albums? like the Hardcore Undergrounds 1-6? |
| Lensherr |
These are compilations :p Nice suggestion none of the less. |

umm no, they're album mixes. Compilations are a bunch of songs compiled together that aren't mixed together. It's like the NOW CDs or best of dream dance cds, or like the regular clubland cds. So you are also not admitting MIXED albums as well. |
| Lensherr |
I guess I meant solo album, yea. |

nah, the world still considers various artists albums that are mixed to still be compilations dude.
Just click "compilations" on any site where you buy cds, you'll notice that they include mixed and partially mixed cds.
Why all this bluntness and passive agressivness towards what was an innocent question?
it's not like you're going to be fined if you give the wrong answer.

Alek Szehala - Xochitlan

Haha xD They kind of define a period of my childhood though (obviously I'm still really going through childhood, but I mean a lot earlier on), so they mean something to me when I look back to about the age of 10 or 11, plus I doubt I would have found hardcore if I didn't listen to Clubland first :D |
| Lensherr |
I have heard only bad opinions on the HARDCORE clubland compilations tho. |

1-3 were great...the rest were...well a bit shit tbh the last 3 have been utter shit apart from the odd good track here and there |
| latininxtc |
Actually MOST people on this site hated 3.
#4 in my opinion, and many as well, was much better, and it was far better received. I loathed Breeze's CD on there b/c it had Storm yelling out "it's all about clubland" on each and every damn track it was obnoxious. That and the tracklist wasn't all that great. |
