I've been getting into Aphex a Twin lately, and I think

"Aphex a Twin" fucking kill me

boards of canada, autechre, squarepusher, venetian snares

>>72925254
he said he's trying to get past entry-level stuff so he's probably already listened to there
if you haven't OP then yeah, definitely listen to those first two

>ceephax acid crew
Mah nigga

Check out luke vibert and his aliases, Its not really idm but a lot of aphex's stuff are more acid than anything
Id recommend from luke vibert:
Big soup, yoseph, rythm and we hear you, each has a really different feel to it

>>72925859
Wow, "IDM" really has no meaning now.

>>72925951
It never meant anything, people just started tacking it on to breakcore at some point and it stuck but as far as im concerned op is asking for recs based on aphex, those were mostly solid suggestions, being autistic about genres is doesnt make any sense especially when discussing artists that have stuff in many different genres

>>72925989
Fair enough, similar to Aphex makes sense.

Not OP, I'm well versed in Aphex Twin's full length releases. I want to know what his essential EPs are, I CBF going through them all. I've heard Cheetah and thought it was decent.

Also +infinity for Autechre. If you haven't already then I'd check out the albums Chiastic Slide and Exai first.

>>72926038
>essential
Donkery Rhubarb EP (the title track is RDJ's 3rd most recognizable single after CTD and Windowlicker)
Come To Daddy (RDJ doing a "crappy death metal jingle" + other classics like Flim and Bucephalus Bouncing Ball)
Windowlicker (you should know this already)
both The Tuss EP's (basically an extreme frantic take on his Analord style, people who were disappointed by Syro were disappointed that it wasn't anything like the Tuss EP's)

>semi-essential
Classics (compiles his earliest Aphex Twin EP's)
Caustic Window compilation (compiles most tracks from his Caustic Window EP's)
Analogue Bubblebath 3 (basically an album)
On EP (recommended for fans of SAW)
Ventolin EP (basically a precursor to ICBYD)
Hangable Autobulb EP (compiles the two parts and forms an album basically, RDJ's first drill and bass release and a precursor to RDJ Album)
Chosen Lords (compilation of selected Analord tracks)

then listen to the rest of his EP's and Analords when you finally have enough time

>>72926038
I've tried to get into aphex but I'm not that into his ambient work, more into atmospheric high tempo shit like Polynomial C. What album should I listen to for more of that?

>>72926088

Thanks anon, I've been listening to Windowlicker just now and I really dig it. I'll go through the others.

>>72926118

Haved you listened to Syro? I like it and it's more upbeat.

this compilation basically coined the term IDM so you might wanna give this a try. It's part of a series so listen to everything in the series too.

>>72926118
Analogue Bubblebath 3 and Surfing On Sine Waves.

Thanks, ima check it out

>>72925905
Just put on some Like Vibert and immediately fell in love with the classic house sound of Heard It All B4, got any tracks/albums/artists with this sound?

>>72926088
>>72926133
there's also the Girl/Boy EP

the original edition of RDJ Album is 30 something minutes so the US edition combines it with Girl/Boy EP to form a 40 minute album, in case your version of RDJ Album is 30 something minutes go and get the Girl/Boy EP

this thread also reminded me of this set, theres a lot of cool stuff in here, I especially like the last few tracks, they remix an old dnb artist desired state and a song by tom tom club(talking heads members)

I wouldn't say he's a deep / heavy hitter "idm" guy, but he still makes good stuff.

>>72927087

This is if you like melodies and ambience over complex rhythms... Ulrich's really not IDM.

>>72926653
How is The Orb not on here anywhere? Their first 3 albums and every EP and single between deserve a place.

>>72929347
probably because they are ambient house or something

I'm on the same boat as OP.
What else sounds like drukqs

>>72926138
Holy fuck. I haven't seen that since I was a kid.

>>72925951

I interpret it as the "un-genre", a category of musicians where electronic artists make music that violently crosses genre boundaries like aphex twin, squarepusher, autechre, amon tobin, clark... etc. There's also a certain "sound" that they have, so it's context sensitive.

But overall "IDM" as a term is absolutely meaningless

>>72929389
Lol

>>72926118
Drukqs for sure, ignore the piano interludes and you've got definitely a couple of 10/10s in that album.

Jega is great, especially the album Geometry. There's also Gimmik, Arovane, Gescom and Phonem for similar stuff
