certainly not an easy decision, nor something most will agree on, but here goes- 1. clear- its all becoming...(clear) or knights who say dot (dot) for the electro/jazzy side 2. squarepusher- hnd/big loada or burnington tree for the dnb side 3. panasonic- kulma/vakio or plastikman- sheet one/consumed for the minimal beat-oriented thing 4. any schematic/skam/musik aus strom/markant/mask for the darker, more brooding aspect of idm 5. any farmers manual, recent rephlex, or v/vm for the "what the hell is this?" category. not the easiest stuff to get, but worth it. soon you will find yourself buying more and more and ordering from farther and farther away. a painful affliction that many have on this list. cl
