Listening to a lot of Ruairi O'Baoighill lately, dark ambient stuff from Loughrea. Decent, picked up a pile of CDs there last week.

Some of his stuff is free to download from his label (Cursed Monk Records):

I tried Ben Frost when he was mentioned back on the old forum and I liked the idea of what he was doing but didn't really love it. I might give it a go again though as I have become a lot more patient in my listening habits over the last couple of years.

Recently bought a new copy of Moby's Animal Rights album and the bonus disc Little Idiot is brilliant. I'd recommend it to anyone into ambient things. Got the free download of the new NIN as well, the first disc is great instrumental dark ambient stuff. I found the second disc a bit boring as it's all piano stuff and reminds me of minecraft music.

Also been listening to Deadmau5' Random Album Title a good bit lately which is a great album and only seems to have improved with time. He got progressively more poppy after that and it was diminishing returns for me with each subsequent album.

Thom Yorke's Anima is another one. Really great stuff I prefer it to anything by Radiohead. It has much more of a beat to it.

And lastly I picked up a copy of Music For The Jilted Generation for fuck all a couple of weeks ago, and going back to it now after years it is brilliant.

I don't know if any of that is the sort of electronica the thread is designed for or if it's more for the club stuff but I do listen to a lot of electronic based stuff of all types.
All types of electronic music. I'm looking for some nice recommendations myself so keep them flowing.

This is fantastic, a French compilation of '70s/'80s electronic music, some quite funky and some quite trippy:

A couple of nice ambient 'head' tracks from Jesse Leach of Killswitch Engage fame....

Staying with the chill vibe. Some relaxing vibes with the voice of Alan Watts to soothe you.....

Andy Stott is a hero. Must go back to the most recent one. Enjoyed the listen I had. Faith in Strangers is my favourite though.

Currently blasting techno sets from Hor Berlin:

Anyone here have any love for Sheep on Drugs back in the day? They had some cool stuff in the big beat / techno / industrial vein. One of the best band names ever too.

Yep, Motorbike was a cool tune. Are they still on the go?

Strangely, yes. Last release was 2 Light 2 Dark ep this year. Haven't heard it yet though, tbh I haven't listened to them since giving up a career in munching disco biscuits.

If you like Andy Stott there's a fair chance you'll like ELLLL.

She's from Cork. Phenomenal DJ as well. That whole release is perfect.
