The 40 greatest synth tracks ever: pt 2, 1990-2008
The Prodigy, Aphex Twin and LCD Soundsystem anyone?

Liam Howlett and chums have consistently proved that it’s not the amount of stuff you throw at a song that counts - rather, it’s all about one or two massive sounds (and huge beats, of course). This track, however, does have a bit more in it than most Prodigy tunes. On top of the fat sounds and beats, there are insistent leads, a massive clap and even a chanty bit for your spiritual side.

It may not be the 'cool' choice but 'Closer' by Nine Inch Nails is a synth classic! I'm (only) slightly suprised it hasn't been mentioned.
