I’m looking for suggestions for electronic albums in any sub-genre that you think exemplify dedication to craft and careful consideration of detail in any aspect: production, sound design, composition, etc.

Here are examples of some artists that I think have consistently released music in this vein:

Daft Punk (on this list particularly due to everyone’s go-to for great production, Random Access Memories)
Tipper
Yosi Horikawa
The Flashbulb
Shpongle
Lusine
Eli & Fur
KOAN Sound

I’d highly recommend these - they’re not all strictly electronic but I feel there’s overlap at least:

Sasha - Scene Delete
Jon Hopkins - Immunity
Daniel Avery - Drone Logic
Bonobo - Black Sands
BT - This Binary Universe
Boards of Canada - Tomorrow’s Harvest
Hugo Kant - Far From Home
Bicep - Bicep
Sub Focus - Sub Focus

Bonobo spans genres but he’s probably my favourite artist right now. His Late Night Tales entry (not electronic) was one of the best albums I’ve ever heard.
