I'm digging through my earlier collections and replaying the classics. There are some that still resonate with me, as I suspect they always will. The Prodigy's Music for the Jilted Generation, Orbital's Snivilisation, Squarepusher's Feed Me Weird Things, Autechre's Incunabula, and Future Sound Of London's Accelerator (I could go on and on...).

But back in 1990s I was never big into Aphex Twin or any of his other alias projects. So I put on his earlier works into my rotation and take the time machine back to the early days of Rephlex, R and S Records, and Warp.

And here's the verdict, gentlemen, I can not get into it at all. I'm pretty good at filtering out the earlier raw and analog synthesizer productions as well as experimentation with the sound. I've spent countless hours enjoying Brian Eno's earlier works, like Music For Airports, or being able to finally appreciate the abstract manipulations behind Pan Sonic's Kulma. But it just doesn't click with AFX.

…

This might not be the most original post ever, but here's my top 50 electronic albums list. I limited the number of albums from each artist to 3, so that a few artists would not dominate the list and prevent other worthy albums from being on the list (I didn't want to do a top 100, after all, I'm not THAT ambitious with these lists). It's difficult to be completely accurate with a list this large, so this list isn't 100% set in stone. Also, there are plenty of other deserving albums that just didn't make the cut. These albums are given honorable mentions, with the number of stars correlating to the reason why they aren't on this list. Any suggestions/recommendations/comments are welcome!
