Oh wow! I think this is the closest I've come to completely identifying myself with someone else's music taste on this board. I know almost every album and artist on your chart, so that makes it difficult for me, but here are a few fantastic records that are worth hearing:

David Morley - Ghosts
Also, his debut is one of my most replayed albums ever, it's also worth hearing, but Ghosts is his best ambient-techno album and the point where he nailed down his own style.
https://youtu.be/BBDpuhWn4ps

Metamatics - NeoOuija
He's released lots of great albums, but this one remains my favorite.
https://youtu.be/p9uX7lL1fXw

Cabaret Voltaire - The Conversation
My favorite from them.
https://youtu.be/du0wgYDA_Os

Psychick Warriors Ov Gaia - Obsidian (Organically Decomposed)
This is an EP with alternative versions of some tracks from >>121578543

CJ Bolland - Electronic Highway
Another one of my big favorites.

I tried to avoid examples that feature orchestral accompaniment, but I failed. Despite that, the exceptions were interesting enough for me to recommend them.

The best example by far is the song Orbital - Out There Somewhere Pt. 2 [Check out the album In-Sides too, but the climatic ending is the key part]

It is difficult to find electronic music that is composed like classical music. Most electronic genres tend to have a fairly rhythmic approach to melody based on arpeggios and repetition of phrases. Even electronic music that features orchestral accompaniment often feels closer to Steve Reich than Schubert. Therefore, most choices might feel subjective, but I think some of these pieces will serve you well.

>It is difficult to find electronic music that is composed like classical music.
Yes! Electronic music as you noted also seems to me more focused on repetition and rhythm over melody and progression. Which is why it usually does come off as Steve Reich-ish, from what I understand Minimalism was the beginning of electronic music as it is commonly known as today.

Schulze, Tangerine Dream, and Jean Michel Jarre are the three I know of myself that felt pretty close in some ways, at least in the sense that the music isn't as rhythmic focused and with some complex textures and development.

Orbital was very cool and I will certainly be checking out the rest of the album, BT as well was nice. Also that last track you linked by Ziq reminded me of of a more complex Pilotredsun, minus the gameboy vibes.

Also electronic covers of classical pieces are interesting and do show the differences, with a bit of similarity too.

Here is a vinyl rip I took of Metroscat - Accurate Envelope. I really wanted to hear this album and it's not available on the internet anywhere, as is most of the label. So I bought it for $70
if anyone has anything else for this label pls trade

Metroscat is a 4 person group that included Lynx,Krok, Marvin Dash, and Lowtec. The latter two would later appear on Workshop records, who also published Reagenz's second album

Accurate Envelope is all over the place in styles, industrial, ambient, breaks, acid

"Space Night (full title: space night - All-tag nachts) is the name of a German television program in the early night/morning hours each day. It is a mixture of chill-out-music and images of the earth as seen from space interspersed with informative broadcasts. It was started by the Bayerischer Rundfunk (BR) in 1994 and is now broadcast by ARD-alpha."

"Space Night started in 1994 as a replacement of the test cards which were broadcast on BR at night until this time. The idea originated in the fact that the German satellite ASTRO-SPAS (see STS-80) had recorded many hours of video footage in space. The BR received this footage, edited the material and added downtempo spherical music."

As BR did not want to show the same pictures 7 days a week, both NASA and ESA as well as the German Aerospace Center were addressed. They offered more hours of footage from in and around space, which were thus included."

"The broadcast quickly turned into a cult: At raves in the mid-90s it wasn't unusual to show the images of Space Night on big TV-screens. Early in the morning after the rave it was often used to calm down, especially from 1996 and later, as Space Night's sound changed through the musical guidance by Alex Azary (a European chill-out-DJ), who provided a more electronic background music. This was a logical step that originated from Alex Azary. He headed the Club XS in Frankfurt where "chill out nights" started in 1990, supported by spherical music. Alongside, pictures of Space Night were shown, albeit the playback was a little bit slower than in the original program. The images did fit well to the then new music-genre and Alex thought it would be a good idea to show it to the people at BR. A meeting in Munich followed where he could convince them to try something new. A few years later, individual songs were created by composer Marc Engelhard."

This was epic late night/early morning tv.
