Great album! IDM was definitely already a thing when it came out though.

Heh. You're talking like there was no such thing as audio software in the mid to late 90s. There was though. It's actually the stuff I learned on. I'm not sure specifically what Alan Sutherland's methods were on this album. I remember when it came out reading an article about him that made it sound like he just recorded multiple tracks of himself on the turntables, though he may have used a sampler or some of the aforementioned software.
