New free Noisia EP that they did for the game Motorstorm Apocalypse or something. There's some good stuff on it, though nothing amazing.

I'm getting into a bit of electronic music after being pulled into something called EMG. (Basically, it's a bunch of people who have synthesizers, and got a synth and thus got pulled into it). So I'm going through the stuff of the other people in EMG and giving it a listen, but I heard Portishead's Dummy a few years back and enjoyed it, so I should probably get some more of their stuff.

but yeah, the only EMG release so far is from before I joined, but give it a go. (Notes: In Sequence is a friend of mine, so that's how I got pulled in.)

First a disclaimer: This is a song by one of my friends. It's sort of prog-drone (I wasn't quite sure if this would be the right thread, but his stuff tends to be quite electronic, but it's moving much towards the eastern), but I had to share it. I've not heard anything quite like this before.

I listened to "More Monsters And Sprites" today. I wasn't as bad as I expected (it had some good melodies) but it's way too repetitive for me to like. I guess EDM is supposed to be repetitive though since you can't really dance to something that changes every five seconds.

Awhile ago, I listened to brostep stuff like that, and realized it only has an average of two parts per song and gets boring after about one part. So I just stopped listening to it.
I only listen to electro-post dubprog.  You've probably never heard of it.

He's pretty great. I'd say "Random Album Title" and "For Lack of a Better Name" are his best albums. "4x4=12" is also good, but I feel like some of the songs on that album gets repeated a bit too much. It actually annoys me sometimes, especially on "Cthulhu Sleeps", which is pretty much the same thing for 10 minutes.  :lol

Favorite songs would be: "I Remember", "Raise Your Weapon", "Ghosts n Stuff", "The 16th Hour" and "Some Chords".

Tonight is a Paul Oakenfold night. (A voyage into Trance specifically)

 Its definitely making this Lab Report I'm writing seem way less tedious.

I truly love this album and have never heard anything quite like it.

Went to see Tycho and Matthew Dear as part of Seattle's annual Decibel Electronic Music Festival.  They performed as part of the Ghostly label's showcase.  What I found great about both acts was that they're more known to produce electronic music as solo acts, but for their performances that evening, they both had live orchestrations within a band structure to play the songs. 

Tycho may be known to most folks who check out Cartoon Network's Adult Swim.  His music has been used during those interstatials during commercial breaks.  The band that evening sounded like Minus The Bear without any of the vocals.  Most of their set came from the new album, Dive.  It sounded fantastic.  Most of the credit goes to their drummer.  That guy was spot-on.

Matthew Dear was also great to listen to.  The whole band looked elegant as they played techno bangers sporting designer suits.  The live experience for Matthew Dear shows are so different from what you'd hear on record as well.  I was actually surprised at how much tweaking Matthew did for his vocals, especially considering that he had a pretty decent live singing voice.  I'd like to hear him spin a DJ set some time.

So apparently for Fat of the Land's 15th anniversary, Noisia remixed 'Smack My Bitch Up', which will be released later this year.

FUCK.

YES.

So, Orbital certainly is something.    The Green Album had me by that song and didn't let go.  Well, the American version that actually has Belfast.  Anything drastically different about the UK version?

You should check out blackmill, it's some really great stuff, in fact everyone should check him out:

Cool, love that band!

Also, I don't know if you guys are into Ulrich Schnauss, but his new album is awesome. He does electronic shoegaze in case you didn't know, and he does it incredibly well. Check it out.

Listening to a trance mix I found on youtube.  I don't listen to it very often, but I do enjoy it when I listen to it.  Most of the time I stream it on internet radio (HBR1.com is my preferred site).
In high school my buddies and I built a Van Der Graaf generator.  You know, to get girls.

Hit up The Fader's website for a really good Jacques Greene mix.  Got into his shit after seeing him open for The xx at a show last summer.

Looking forward to the new Daft Punk album. Been getting a lot more into electronic music lately as well (coincidentally listened to that Kavinsky album posted above yesterday, loved it).

Get Lucky is awesome, and it has given me high hopes as well for RAM and I really do hope it is decent, because I was very let down by Human After All.

Recently discovered Austra.
Grimes and Austra are set to become my holy 2 of this vein. Obviously Grimes being el numero 1. Grimes music just resonates in a way no other musician, like Kvelertak per se does and that sounds kind of creepy...but it's the best way I can explain it.
