Top Five Ryoji Ikeda Albums

(A minimalist electronic musician whose recordings are austere, sometimes brutalizing, sometimes surprisingly danceable. He also composes occasionally for strings, percussion, or clap-and-stomp performances. Here are my five favorite releases of his, in order of preference.)

1. Dataplex (2005)

2. Ultratronics (2022)

3. +/- (1996)

4. Test Pattern (2008)

5. Superposition (2021)
