Autechre Early 90s Electronic

Hey all. First time user here!

I'm looking for some good early 90s electronic albums. I've had a few artists/albums in my collection for a while and I am looking to expand. Here is what I have so far-

(1990) LFO Frequencies

(1991) ORBITAL Green Album

(1991) FSOL Accelerator

(1992) APHEX TWIN Selected Ambient Works 85-92

(1992) THE PRODIGY Experience

(1992) MEAT BEAT MANIFESTO Satyricon

(1993) AUTECHRE Incunabula

As you can see a lot of what I'm into is house driven. I've heard a little of 808 State and The Grid, both intriguing.

this is one of the first electronic cd's i came upon. I took a complete shot in the dark with it, just liked the name and cover and it turned out to be one of my favorites of all time:

it's from '89, but it was so ahead of it's time/influential to this stuff that it belongs here

Eh, it's still worth it for being so amazing.

Joey Beltram classics, Speedy J, Dave Angel classics, CJ Bolland, Laurent Garnier early works, Fuse/Plastikman, Renasaisance Sasha/Digweed, BT IMA

not house\techno but check out Namlooks FAX label

Silence, Dreamfish, Outland, Datacide 2, Ambient Otaku

B12 - Electro-Soma

The Basic Channel releases

Oval - Wohnton and Systemisch

Aphex Twin - On, Xylem Tube EP, etc

Hardfloor's "Human Dominator" and Caustic Window compilation are the only hardcore techno releases I can confidently recommend, I know there are plenty others though. Plenty of jungle and rave I need to discover myself...

This thread might help, especially if SAW 85-92 is a key album in your search: http://forum.watmm.com/topic/66247-is-there-another-album-in-this-world-anything-like-saw-85-92/

808 State - 90

Be sure to pick up the BFC/Psyche compilation:

http://www.discogs.com/Psyche-BFC-Elements-1989-1990/release/9939

It's bloody essential and pretty much crosses all genres in those early days.

FUSE - Dimension Intrusion

check out the labels:

New Electronica

A13

Swim

Djax-Up-Beats

Out Of Orbit (sister label of ACV [italy])

Ifach

Pure Plastic Pal SL

Disturbance

Trelik

Skam

Probe

Plus 8

Reflective

Apollo

Trope

Axodya

Kromode

Sounds Never Seen

Plink Plonk

Diatomyc

Machine Codes

Rather Interesting

Applied Rhythmic Technology

B12

Irdial-Discs

Source (Move d's label)

Clear

these are probably some of the best experimental electronica label from that period, imo. Check them out.:)

Those labels are kinda from all of the 90's but they are good stuff, and worth it to look into, if you want to hear some other quality stuff besides just Warp and Rephlex.:)

Check it...

DJ Hype @ Love Of Life - Autumn 1992

I believe you should be able to download both sides of the mixtape after it loads all the way. They are quicktime files.

Very worth your while.

I love this thread.

In my opinion the Artificial Intelligence series IS the pinnacle of electronic music, stuff like Bytes , electro-soma and SOSW are ethereal works of art.

B12's archives (and time tourist) always good. You should also check Higher Intelligence Agency.

Talking about compilations you might want to check the Trance Europe Express series which was released from 1993 onward. Don't let the name fool you, it's not trance. The first in the series includes Aphex Twin, The Orb, The Black Dog, System 7, etc.

Check CJ Bolland's The 4th Sign, an album that always gets overlook when these "best of the 90's" threads are made.
