Dimension Intrusion is the debut studio album by Canadian electronic music producer Richie Hawtin, credited under the alias F.U.S.E. It was released in June 1993 by Plus 8 and Warp, serving as the fifth album in Warp's Artificial Intelligence series.
According to music writer Margy Holland, Dimension Intrusion is "widely considered one of the greatest electronic albums ever".[3]

| Select | 4/5[5] |
Fact described Dimension Intrusion as "a record which really demonstrates Hawtin's range as a producer" and "one of his most melodic, immediate works".[6] AllMusic stated that the album alternates between "minimalist stompers [and] more melodic, contemplative material," which made Hawtin "a perfect match for the other producers in Warp's Artificial Intelligence series."[4]
In 2012, Fact placed it at number 38 on its list of the "100 Best Albums of the 1990s".[1]
The album is listed in the book 501 Essential Albums of the 90s (2024); contributor Margy Holland writes that "Hawtin set out to create something in between the futurism of Detroit techno and the hypnosis of Chicago house music. The result was a variety of thumping, acid-tinged floor stompers; hypnotic songs, and minimal techno gems for the ages."[3]
