Razed in Black. But they might be considered more industrial.

Considering how there are many styles of electronica out there, you might wanna find a style that suits you. Makes it easier to give you playlists .

Personally I like house.

I wanna see you, you set my soul on fire.

re: Electronica Playlists for Newbies
like someone else said, there are many different sub-genres, but if you're interested in electronica at all you should check out the stuff on Warp Records, especially:

Autechre
Boards of Canada
and Aphex Twin

also check out Portishead, Massive Attack, Thievery Corporation and of course Daft Punk

re: Electronica Playlists for Newbies
Again, it has already been said but definately check out the different genres of Electronic Music.
House, Trance, Techno, Drum and Bass (my fave), Dubstep, Hardcore, Breaks, Trip Hop, Down Tempo, Electro.
Most of these genre's differentiate themeselves by tempo and beat structure.
Also many of those main genres of Electronic Music have sub genres as well.

For Example there is Hard House, Deep House, Disco House, etc... etc....
