Not sure this particular song actually qualifies as "electronic," but it's absolutely amazing. Can't wait for the new Goldfrapp record!

Goldfrapp is a definite in this thread. You're in the right spot.

Right now though, Disclosure's debut album has been the perfect summer jam front to back.

I LOVE Goldfrapp's first album. Never was a fan of the rest though.

Ha, if I still lived there I would be interested. Too bad I now live somewhere they are definitely not coming anywhere near. Rascal Flatts, sure, they'll come here, Infected Mushroom, I don't think so.

Reply after like 1.5 months.

I'd recommend some Aphex Twin and Boards Of Canada.

Outcrier · « **Reply #427 on:** September 07, 2013, 10:17:56 AM »

Yeah, can't go wrong with Selected Ambients 85-92.
Music Has the right to children, Rossz csillag alatt született and some Autechre albums

Been watching so many Boiler Room sets lately. I recommend checking out the BR YouTube channel for some really, really great stuff. Definitely check out Disclosure's, Busy P's, and all of Jamie Xx's.

Going to check this out later on today.

This is a long shot, is anyone going to EDC Vegas next year?

Nope, I'm going to Movement in Detroit.

I watched Todd Edwards BR set a while ago and it was really good. I probably should check out more.

Went to Movement Festival in Detroit over memorial day weekend, it was goddamned amazing. Maceo Plex was the definite highlight, but every act was great. Other faves were Stacey Pullen, Martinez Brothers, Tale of Us, and a ton of the local techno artists.

I was also staying in a warehouse like a mile from the festival with some friends, so it was basically like 72 straight hours of insanity. I got about 4 hours of sleep the entire time.

Can't wait for the album.

Got the earlybird 10 day wristband for BPM in Mexico January 9-18th. Renting an apartment with 2 of my friends for the entire 10 day streak, I am so goddamned excited. The lineup last year was absolutely mindblowing: https://www.thebpmfestival.com/2014-artist-line-up/

Big Hath · « **Reply #441 on:** August 07, 2014, 10:35:48 PM »

so, I know next to nothing about this genre of music. However there are some things I've heard that I'd like to see if there is more of out there. For instance the intro to the tv show Halt and Catch Fire: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yD_kCKiSkoI or the intros to Depeche Mode's World In My Eyes (and Halo to a lesser extent).

Basically I like the upbeat stuff (but not too upbeat, I imagine some of it can get pretty crazy). Computery type sounds. Lots of tom-type drum sounds (I hope I'm describing that correctly). I have no idea what sub-genre that might be. And I would rather there not be any vocals. Any suggestions?

Outcrier · « **Reply #442 on:** August 07, 2014, 11:54:55 PM »

I would recommend you Aphex Twin - Selected Ambient Works 85-92 and Boards of Canada - Music Has The Right To Children, some of the best electronic can offer.
If you want to start with more upbeat stuff, try Daft Punk - Discovery or Pet Shop Boys - Behaviour (it starts with one of their greatest songs, Being Boring, see if you like it: www.youtube.com/watch?v=gui3fPN95rE).

Sacul · « **Reply #443 on:** November 22, 2014, 08:34:04 AM »

If you want more upbeat stuff with some cool experimentation, try Infected Mushroom - Vicious Delicious. It starts with their most famous song, Becoming Insane. Want some ambient, relaxing, beautiful stuff? Burial - Untrue.

I ran into this post by Sigz on accident and needed to share it:

I'd love to hear it. Sad to read through this thread and realize a lot of people don't even know what electronica actually is.

I honestly have no idea what electronica actually means. I've always assumed it was just another word for electronic music (which in the end is not a very descriptive genre either).

Sacul · « **Reply #445 on:** December 16, 2014, 07:48:07 AM »

I always thought they were synonyms

adace · « **Reply #446 on:** January 07, 2015, 11:24:05 PM »

So has anyone else heard Wolves in the Throne Room - Celestite?

It's just an incredible ambient album: Haunting, captivating, and emotional. The perfect soundtrack to virtually exploring space.

goo-goo · « **Reply #447 on:** January 10, 2015, 05:47:49 PM »

Looking for some heavy music with electronic elements (or electronic with the occasional heavy riffage). I'm into post-rock (Long Distance Calling, God is an Astronaut, Maybeshewill, Sleepmakewaves). Any suggestions?

Zantera · « **Reply #448 on:** January 10, 2015, 05:50:01 PM »

Try out 65daysofstatic for some more electronic Post-Rock. They have some great albums, but I started with "We Were Exploding Anyway" and it's probably my favorite.

Sacul · « **Reply #449 on:** January 11, 2015, 02:26:39 AM »

Destiny Potato's Lun and David Maxim Micic's Bilo 2.0 are some awesome djentish prog metal albums with some electronic elements, specially glitch stuff.

JLa · « **Reply #450 on:** January 22, 2015, 02:21:30 PM »

Trance, my guilty pleasure. There are so many amazing tunes out there, although as many of them are released in a trillion different remixes it can be a pain to find the right one. Above & Beyond have some great ones. Other favourites of mine include Dash Berlin and Alex Morph.

It has to be melodic though, I can't stand dubstep and all that new stuff.

Sacul · « **Reply #451 on:** January 22, 2015, 03:08:12 PM »

I still have to deepen into it, but I love what I know. Infected Mushroom is my fav band of the genre so far.

ariich · « **Reply #452 on:** January 22, 2015, 03:58:57 PM »

Infected Mushroom are so damn awesome. Have you heard their latest?

Infected Mushroom... how many of you became aware of them by accidentally downloading their track "Dream Theatre"?

I did.

News: DreamTheaterForums is a place for people who just don't have the time for music anymore.
