@Tchu @Octagonist It’s on my short short list of best albums of all time. The new one, Spiral, is absolutely fantastic, too.

Definitely Nicholas Godin’s solo album Concrete and Glass. 24/96 from qobuz is sublime with my Hugo2 and Sony IER Z1Rs!
Oh! And 2012 remaster of Blue Lines !!!

Very nice topic. Most people listen just to the music and are unaware they unconscious listen to the quality of the frame where it’s in. Just take the 100 most sold albums of all time. 90% is mixed and mastered on high level too. Coincidence? I personally don’t think so.

I find this track quite special and use it when listening to a new system, the bass content and balance in the spectrum is quite remarkable I find

Dark Side of the Moon
Everyone says it’s a landmark in recording. I keep trying to sell myself on the idea that “it was good for its time but there’s better recordings out there now”… but it’s not working. That recording has a kind of magical space and tone. And the more I fight it, the more I hear it. I’m not even much of a Floyd fan.
Sorry for being boring.
Also, track down some T.Bone Burnett productions. He bases his mixes on a single room mic (maybe a stereo pair), with minimal close mic for clarity. You can’t hide much with that technique.
UPDATE: sorry,… I forgot you said “electronic”.

Doom soundtrack album by Mick Gordon is pretty impressive. (Yes, for me it qualifies as electronic music). The whole sound design / mixing / mastering is on another level.

I’ve always found the mixes of Muslimgauze unbelievable. Listening to them is like a lesson.
And well… yeah, basic channel for sure.

Yes, this game. The impact, the dynamics, the sounds… it’s insane indeed.
In 1990 this track seemed far advanced in terms of audio quality
