There are 100s of sounds made in the threads here. It's usually better so start with one or two sounds.

Me too! Have you kept up with the recent IDM scene, and if so, who's good now?
Have you checked out the WATMM forums? A while back (like 15 years ago) I think they would actively discuss IDM sound design and related topics.
A well-behaved signature.

Cialyn is really good. Music is somewhat similar to Boards of Canada.

Since , I think, all the artists mentioned by the OP are still around, it could be useful to be a bit more specific about when/ what sounds you want to receive. For a very broad recommendation, synth 1 can do a decent impression of the early nords which were all over all those folks' music around 2000. FM8 or any other Yamaha style FM synth. Then samples of drum machines and breakbeats with interesting processing. Get pure data and learn how to do some buffer manipulation and crazy waveshaping. Also resample your stuff and go crazy repitching and repurposing sounds you've made.
Don't F**K with Mr. Zero.

Feels like IDM is such a broad strike that it's hard to really pinpoint truly style defining aural qualities. Maybe "glitchy" drums? Either way, Venus Theory does pretty great tutorials on sound design and the like - definitely a channel worth checking out.
Almost as edgy as a genre with the term "intelligent" in its name.

Maybe not exactly what you asked for, but good sources for inspiration and knowledge nonetheless.
