Yes, I find the sub-genres hard to describe. Future Sound of London. Burial. Four Tet. Boards of Canada. Some DJ Shadow. Suggestions welcome, actually, it's all

You've got some really great selections there! I've picked a fairly random list of albums and EPs from a range of electronic music, I really hope you find things you like amongst it. Also I don't want to be the genre police but I wouldn't call any of this EDM, that term seems to have been adopted by a type of music of which, I guess I'll just say I'm not a fan. In no particular order: Arovane - Tides (2000) Tim Hecker - Virgins (2013) Donato Dozzy - K (2010) Autechre - Amber (1994) James Holden - The Inheritors (2013) Andy Stott - Faith In Strangers (2014) Jon Hopkins - Immunity (2013) Recondite - On Acid (2012) Lemon Jelly - Lemonjelly.ky (2000) Max Graef - Rivers Of The Red Planet (2014) Pantha Du Prince - Black Noise (2010) Plaid - Reachy Prints (2014) Rival Consoles - Sonne (2014) Shlohmo - Bad Vibes (2011) St Germain - Boulevard (1995) Traumprinz - Mothercave (2013) Valerio Tricoli - Clonic Earth (2016) Romare - Projections (2015) Space Dimension Controller - Orange Melamine (2016) Actress - R.I.P (2012) Massive Attack - Mezzanine (1998) Rob Clouth - Clockwork Atom (2014) And shouts out to Datassette who appears to have done a bunch of the instalments on the music for programming site (mixes/playlists, whatever they are. I've never listened to any of them). This EP is gorgeous: Datassette - The Aviatrix (2009)

  Thanks for the list! The Massive Attack album is one I already love, so I'll check out the others.

If you like Burial, you'd do well to explore dubstep further. A good starting point would be the Dubstep Allstars series (especially volumes 2, 6 and 7.2 – they're all on YouTube) and the realdubstep subreddit (they happen to love Burial on there).

  Shackleton is the king here. Three EPs, Fabric 55 and Music For The Quiet Hour / The Drawbar Organ EPs are dubstep at its best. Experimental, dubby and has occasionally having the step beat.
