Totally.

I second the Monolake recommendation from Jose Luis Perales.

Oh, and Boxcutter sounds interesting, though I've only heard clips.

GVSB Freakonica

Banca Di Gaia

Gus-Gus

Everything that is on or anything to do with the basic channel label.

Everything you guys mentioned (especially Mr. Oizo and non-ambient Aphex Twin) are electronic art wank stains with beats. I mean, I like a lot of it, but just sayin'...

Replace the word "electronic" with "rock", and see how quickly the thread backlash would start.

Why are people so insecure about electronic music here? It's fucking hilarious to me.

is he good? he will playing here next week.

i like him a lot. he might be my favourite electronic composer. it's mostly instrumental, very dada pop, whimsical, silly, dark at times. he has an amazing ability to blend pleasant and dissonant sounds and it's what i've always wanted electronic music to sound like.

i first heard about him from his album The Tetchy Teenage Tapes of Felix Kubin. the story being that when he was a child his parents took him to a doctor because they were worried about his mental health and when the doctor recomended that he be institutionalized they bought him a 4 track, a drum machine and a synthesizer and just let him make music instead.

this is a video for a recent song:

i agree with mackro. non-ambient aphex and squarepusher is wank wank stuff. yeah. used to like it, but not anymore. i really think that the ambient stuff is definately more interesting.
autechre is in another channel altogether, so boards of canada (their last album is kinda 'meh' tough)
but, for some good, balanced, electronica, really, check monolake. oh, and deadbeat.
