OTTO - Clam Day, so damn punchy and snappy. almost mixed too present but just perfect in execution
Rustie - EVENIFYOUDONTBELIEVE, if you like drums that are distorted to the point of saturation and hit hard enough to snap your neck this is for you
Reso - Tabris, the drum programming on the tracks Tabris and Axion still blow my mind. it sounds like a drum kit thrown into a particle collider
Burial - Burial, drums so swung and off kilter they shouldn’t work. Broken Home and U Hurt Me especially
Flying Lotus - You’re Dead!, varies between maximalist freestyle jazz drumming and sleek stripped back beats

firstly, if you like PS1 type beats you will LOVE:
- Skee Mask - Compro, specifically Kozmic Flush.
- Also you might dig the album Reso - Tangram
- Andy Stott is the king of atmosphere, but also prob has more grit than others
- This album by Transllusion also has some pretty sleek sound design goin on
- Sweet Trip's album Velocity:Design:Comfort straddles the realms of drum and bass, glitch, pop, and shoegaze like nothing else
- EPROM is prolly the heaviest on this whole list but takes a lot of inspo from the jungle and acid eras
if you like things more chill and spatial:
- try Burial. his album Untrue is considered a landmark work of electronic music
- This album from Djrum might also scratch that itch
- Boards of Canada are a staple of chill electronica
- Huerco S borders on soundscapes at times, but with enough movement to keep things interesting
- Floating Points makes really lush, almost orchestral electronic music with a lot of jungle and techno influence
- Leon Vynehall is similar to Floating Points but more of a house influence
if you want wacked out Machine Girl stuff with a lot of energy:
- Phuture Doom has the same level of acid-infused madness
- try Machinedrum too maybe? both draw heavily from footwork as a genre. I'd say Machinedrum is just happy Machine Girl in a way
- Maybe have a little Drexciya if you want something more classic
- if you like danceable rhythms, maybe other Detroit Techno stuff like Los Hermanos
the world of electronic music is so vast and diverse so explore wherever your ears lead! also paging aidanaguirre for the assist on this one
