Yes, one nu disco album is the best from everything from snythpop to experimental ambient, hip hop to industrial.

Electronic music is music that employs electronic musical instruments and electronic music technology in its production, an electronic musician being a musician who composes and/or performs such music
Wow that RA list is actually really good. Gesloten Cirkel in top 3 fuck yeah.
>>52173538
I agree
It's got soul
>>52173559
I agree actually. It's wonderful. Pokes fun at itself but also has substance.
Ahem
>>52173661
I definitely listen to that one more. But the Terje album just gets me.
>>52173538
more like album cover of the year
>>52173538
>>52173661
now let's not be shitty or contrarian
It's my favourite album of the year so far, any genre. There are still some I intend to check out though. Probably a lot more once people start publishing their "best of the year" lists.

I don't think talking about "electronic music" is relevant if you're going to include genres that can exist without electronic sounds, or genres that are not predominantly electronic but can still include electronic sounds. That would cover most of popular music nowadays.
Actually "electronic music" is so broad I almost never use the word; when I do, I usually mean techno, house, breakbeat, IDM (yeah I know, "IDM is not a genre", whatever) and maybe one or two other genres I'm forgetting now, but not hip hop or industrial.

So The Prodigy are no longer electronic music because they use geetahs? Okay brah

For me, it's pic related (A U R O R A as well as I Shall Die Here get honourable mentions)

The Prodigy with no electronic sounds at all wouldn't be the same band.
>>52173538
it's a good album, very musical, doesn't take itself very seriously but is immaculately made.
