songs for headphones

What songs does anyone recommend specifically for listening to on headphones. i love the stereo effect on headphones, especially while tripping and good but not as good whens toned. the way you can hear the music and beats in the different parts of your brain is awesome. it makes you feel so attached to the music, anyway, i'd recommend:
aphex twin - come to daddy ep the end of come to daddy (track1) is amazing, wild sounds take over your head, and the screaming bit before is almost unbearable. the rest of the cd is amazing too, but bucephalus bouncing ball stands out. a bouncing ball noise is used throughout as the beat and emerges into the ball bouncing in each ear, one after another, and then it swaps, crazy stuff.
pink floyd - dark side of the moon a classic. thats it.
theres a few more i know of, but i'd like to hear some others first. cheers, mike

*ahem!* SHPONGLE! *cough!* definitely the most detailed shit I've ever heard.... all the coolest shit is very subtle, almost "hidden," so its good to have some great headphones for it. you can push any soundsystem to its limit in every aspect with these cds
-------------------- Insert an "I think" mentally in front of eveything I say that seems sketchy, because I certainly don't KNOW much. Also; feel free to yell at me. In addition: SHPONGLE

I have a lot of experience with this, since I spend hours a day at my computer listening to music while working...Just about any Radiohead song KICKS ASS with headphones, especially at very loud volumes, but I especially love Subterranean Homesick Alien and Airbag. Beck is also good, and the Orb, Moby, David Bowie's Space Oddessy, man, I could go on and on.

Try some Coil, it's almost made for headphones. Check out Music to Play in the Dark Volume 1 and 2. Pink Floyd - Ummagumma Live CD is brilliant also for headphones. Mr Bungle, Velvet Acid Christ, Devin Townsend. Hmmm, who else. Chemical Brothers - Surrender. Queens of the Stone Age - Rated R and Songs For the Deaf. Trail of Dead - Source Tags and Codes. Shalabi Effect is insane on headphones.

nine inch nails, especially the cd 'the fragile' put on some good headphones, turn up the tunes and you begin to hear really odd noises and people mumbling...good shit!

thanks for the replies. i'll definately check out the stuff i dont have.
another favourite of my mine is brian eno - another green world. this is my favourite trip music as well. this guy is genious. definately check his stuff out if you havent heard it. his ambient works, like music for airports and apollo: atmospheres & soundtracks, are both brilliant as well.
the chemical brothers are also good, all albums really. Les Rythmes Digital and Royksopp also create some nice beats. check out: royksopp - a higher place, eple, 64 position and others. i personally like alot of the album Les Rythmes Digital - Liberation.
On the harder techno side of things, try some green velvet : killer bees, destination, pursuit. check these out.

I'd also like to add Boards of Canada in there.
It's near the Shpongle complexity when it comes to hidden melodies and secret sounds

What I would like to know; are names of songs that have the effect of sounds that keep going from right to left and back...
If anybody would know a song like that, I would be very thankful!
