Good point, spritex. I like my IDM with a little liquid feel to it. Aphex (other than "Selected Ambient Works II) has never really done it for me, and while I really like "Amber"...no other Autechre album has captivated me in the same way.
Almost forgot another favorite of mine: Pole.
Classic IDM albums?

Warp stuff mostly here...
Atificial Intelligence I & II - Various Artists
BOC - Music has the right... Stunning IMO (Roybiv make me goose pimply even now everytime I hear it.)
Brothomstates - Claro
Autechre - LP5
Team Doyobi - Pushchairs for Grownups (Probably should be classed as SDM (Silly Dance Music
) if you ever hear it played live on a monstrous rig - superb IMO)
Richard Devine - Alea Mapper
Plenty of others too IMO, too many too list
OT - Anyone in the UK watch Top Gear last night and notice how many tunes off 'Music has a right...' got used again in another BBC programme. Seems someone there thinks it good too

We are really stretching the term "classic" here, then? I mean, this was released early this year...pHz wrote:telefon tel aviv - map of what is effortless (thanks gridlocked)
But the first TTA album, that might almost pass as a classic by now...

Deadstock: self-titled 7-track album (not to be confused with 5-track self-titled EP)
Eternal Basement: Nerv (but their 12" singles were better)
Orbital: the brown album (or "2" in the USA)
Giorgio Moroder: From Here To Eternity
The Grid: 456
Sven Väth: The Harlequin, The Robot, and the Ballet Dancer
Aphex Twin: Digeridoo EP
Gino Soccio: Outline (maybe not quite so "intelligent", but way ahead of its time in 1979)

Yup, seemed an odd choice, but improved the prog immeasurablyOT - Anyone in the UK watch Top Gear last night and notice how many tunes off 'Music has a right...' got used again in another BBC programme. Seems someone there thinks it good too
Stunning.FSOL - lifeforms
Another vote for Amber, and the above mentioned Orbital.
What would you like to do most of all?The Grid: 456
And when I have folk 'round who find all that stuff a bit like noise
I resort to William Orbit - he has his moments

another vote for Amon Tobin "Supermodified"
also BOC's "music" is grreeaaaattt...but I also like "Geogaddi" a lot as well.
It may be stretching the IDM tag a little but I vote for Prefuse '73 both albums "uprock..." and "one word extinguisher"

hmmmm, classic means older.....here is my list of the essential/classic IDM albums from the "major" IDM artists.
Aphex Twin: Richard D. James
BOC: MHTRTC
Plaid: Rest Proof ClockWork
Autechre: LP5
SquarePusher: Feed Me Wierd Things
Those discs really got me into IDM and in exchange opened my mind about making music on computers. and, well here I am.
