mouse on mars - glam tired sounds of stars of the lid (if it counts as electronic) and maybe autechre - LP5
thats really all i can think of at the moment, i love electronic music but unlike pop/rock there are very very few albums that feel perfect to me. i'm not really sure why this is, but oh well

Does this only apply to electronic albums that are rooted in instrumental music/minimalism to some extent?
Otherwise, add the following Human League: Dare Japan: "Gentlemen Take Polaroids" and "Tin Drum" OMD: "Organisation" and "Architecture And Morality" Depeche Mode: Entire catalogue more or less Yazoo: "Upstairs At Eric's" Erasure: "Chorus"

LFO Advance you miserable cockfarmers.
i agree, it's such a big lush piece - bigger on ambience than dancing tho - i think this is what undermines it for some people. Carl Craig's Landcruising is similar in that respect but probably a better album for having a more dedicated focus thematically and sonically (because again it just sounds so lush) with more subtlety.
i listed way too many 66% good albums upthread!

Landcruising also undermined somewhat by the reworked versnion from a couple of years back but I love both equally.

Thank you for redeeming both this thread and my cranky comment.

Well "some people" need to recognize that this is the album that gave us Tied Up!

they could've left that off it really tho, considering the gap between that coming out as a single and the album release. plus the Acid mix is better!
― blueski, Friday, 19 October 2007 15:44 (sixteen years ago) link
There's no such thing as a less-than-excellent version of this track, but I dunno "better".

it's a great album but i wouldn't give it 10/10. especially compared to a broken frame, black celebration, violator and ultra

I'd suggest

too, but I actually don't think of it as an electronic album, particularly (whereas Reproduction is devoutly, exclusively so).
― grimly fiendish, Thursday, 25 December 2008 20:15 (fifteen years ago) link
But yeh, I listened to Reproduction last night while I was wrapping Christmas presents, oddly enough, and I thought: this is one of the greatest artefacts in recorded sound.
This may be my fave EM record ever:
