Quick Question For The Electronic Music Fans

I am just starting to get into this type of music and I was wondering if anyone can suggest artists to listen to? My friend told gave me the new Mike Oldfield CD Music of the Spheres to listen to and I really enjoyed it. Does anyone know where I can get more information on him or listen to more of his music?

Holy ****, Mike Oldfield's still around?

Aphex Twin - Richard D. James Album
Squarepusher - Hard Normal Daddy
Boards of Canada - Music Has The Right to Children

All pretty far from Tubular Bells, but I'd say three definite masterpieces of electronica.

that is pretty awesome, and Aphex Twin.

Goldfrapp´s album Black Cherry is easy to listen to if you want to get into electronica..

and Funkstorung´s album Return To The Acid Planet.
