Decks Drums and Rock and Roll, by the Propellerheads. Theatrical Electronic Bombast. It's the bridge between the big beat of Fatboy Slim and the hardcore dancefloor stuff like the Crystal Method. But don't put it past the Crystal Method to try some fun stuff too - hello "Magic Carpet Ride" lol - Steppenwolf would be proud. You can also give The Chemical Brothers a go - actually the closest sound to The Crystal Method imho - but alot more serious than the Propellerheads. Compare, hmm, "Block Rockin Beats" to, say, Rockafeller Skank by Fatboy Slim to, I dunno, that Matrix song the Crystal Method does. That's pretty much the triumverate of that period - and toss in "On Her Majesty's Secret Service" by the Propellerheads for fun. And of course anything by the Prodigy will scare you.

If you havn't gone there already, have a look at Chemical Brothers, their 'best of' is a good place to start. Also have a look at Apollo Four Forty, Electro Glide In Blue is an awesome album, with a couple of kickass tracks (Carrera Rapida leaps to mind) and Gettin' High On Your Own Supply is also a good disc. You might also like Leftfield, the Leftism album is excellent.

I second the Chemical Brothers notion. They are one of my favorites.

I think Joy Electric is pretty cool, although I haven't heard anything besides these two...and it may be different than what you want...dunno

If you wanna get some good electronica don't overlook the classics also, Chris Sheppard had some great albums out in his day which had some awesome tracks on them (i.e Have a nice Trip, A Trip in Techno 1 and 2..)

I don't own these albums because there impossible to find but I have heard them and there great.

Also give the Utah Saints a listen and underworld. The Hackers Soundtrack is also and excellent album..

Ohh and Orbital all there albums are just great

To name a few heh

If you wanna give something different a try look also at Acen and the Moonshing compelations called "Speed Limit 140 BPM" Volumes 1-9
