One of my favorite idm records of 1996 was released on Hypnotic... a danish band called Kraftwelt. If you can forgive the undeniably cheesy name, you'll find an album's worth of incredibly well-produced songs leaning towards the experimental electronic side of the techno spectrum. The album I have is called "Electric Dimension" for those interested... I can definitely vouch however the level of crap on Hypnotic, having heard LCD's new album. Imagine a total rip-off of the chemical brothers, with cliche Doom 2 samples.
