saberwulf posted:My words exactly. SWB you should shower your friend in praise, that beat is amazing and I absolutely adore that video, it's a better electronic video than Baby I'm Your's which I think is quite the challenge. The track is already showing up on a few other non music related sites so clearly the video is managing to further spread the band's reputation, but thanks, will let them know it's loved here as well ^^^That avicii track is pretty sweet but wish that voice wasn't there

https://8bc.org/music/Dr.+Szliszka/Androids:+Battle+Mode/ I dont know what to call this other than electro 8-bit, but it's definitely a great find in my opinion. Any related suggestions? I've already skimmed along the lines of anamanaguchi and electronicMESS, but I dont know what else might be more in line with this track.

It amazes me how many people think that someone can be that succesful and not know exactly what they're doing. I hate their music, but poo poo like this is why they won the best essential mix. It came out just at the end of 2010, intentional or not. Probably helped raise their fee from their new year quite a bit too. cubicle gangster fucked around with this message at 12:15 on May 25, 2011 |

88h88 posted:Forgive me for asking but what exactly is bloghouse? IIRC, bunch of DJs that got big in the blog scene, making electro/house mixes and throwing parties and whatnot. I remember listening to La Greve Generale, Richie Panic, CASIO, Treasure Fingers, etc back like, 2-3 years ago I wanna say. There were some fun mash ups and good beats in there, and they still work really well to get people dancing at a house party, but the genre itself sucks balls outside of that. edit: I'm most likely wrong, but thats what I remember. I stopped giving a crap about it a while ago, and apparently it kept going or some crap.

I'm completely new to electronica/synth or whatever, but I'm looking for starting point to get into this stuff. I don't really enjoy techno, or your standard 4/4 beat repeated constantly with a really simple melody played in front of it, with a DJ doing some EQ mixing. I kind of want something that is really heavily melody driven, a whole lot of arpeggios with classical influence and whatnot. I've always heard cool electronica songs in soundtracks, but never really knew any artists or genres that sounded like something I would like. A good example are these 2 portal 2 song's that I thought were pretty cool. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sER1rSv5bd8 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PNcM3YfIYI0&playnext=1&list=PLFAF3996D5291A56C

I haven't seen him mentioned recently but what does everyone think of Mord Fustang? I have just recently been getting into some electro stuff, and a friend recommended him to me. I found that I really enjoy his style and the melody that he has in his songs. Lick the Rainbow and Electric Dream are probably my favorite tracks so far. Here is his soundcloud for you to browse: http://soundcloud.com/mordfustang

infinity2005 posted:Um isn't he basically describing Trance? Not Electro-house... So I would definitely agree with Justice and Danger. Only thing else I would add would be Vitalic too. Ras Het posted:What the hell did I just read? Are you actually insane? quote:We stuck to our original idea to make a 2007 opera-disco album, even if we are conscious that some tracks don't sound like proper disco at first listen. The best example is the song “Waters of Nazareth,” which does not sound like disco when you listen to it for the first time. But if you forget that everything is distorted, the bass lines are just really basic disco patterns.[ And this maybe the time to ask, but I really think the OP should be updated to have a list of the most popular artists for suggestions. Because I found out about Boys Noize, Danger and other good artists randomly, when everyone else already knows about them already. Like a master list of sorts. jvempire fucked around with this message at 01:41 on May 26, 2011 |

All I meant before when I was talking about QCIC was that Justice isn't just house, but has an electro part to it as well. I'm not sure what you mean by 'electro part' but the genre 'electro' as I understand it has practically nothing to do with electro house. Electro house is very much within the house continuum, it's not some kind of hybrid genre that exists half outside of it. ANTIMISANDRIST fucked around with this message at 09:27 on May 26, 2011 |

Electro, as far as I understand, has taken on a different modern meaning than the examples you posted. I know a few DJs around here who still do some very old school electro stuff, specifically DJ Seoul, but when you say electro these days, most people aren't referring to this stuff from what I gather. I think a few pages ago, there was a discussion regarding a few different modern "electro" acts, which are wayyyyy different than this stuff. Not to mention trying to categorize music is just going to confuse the gently caress out of people. Everyone has a different idea of what exactly everything is... most of my knowledge comes from being an avid electronic music fan, and my understanding of electro house comes from when I originally got into it about 4-5 years ago. bagmonkey fucked around with this message at 13:22 on May 26, 2011 |

I think a few pages ago, there was a discussion regarding a few different modern "electro" acts, which are wayyyyy different than this stuff. Well the only "modern meaning" of the term "electro" that I'm aware of is as an abbreviation for "electro house", and it would be pretty tautological if the guy meant that when he referred to the "electro element" within... electro house. I wouldn't say it's "taken on a different modern meaning" though, it's just now commonly (obnoxiously) used as an abbreviation of "electro house" in addition to the classical usage as an abbreviation of "electrofunk". It's not like nobody makes music that falls under the latter category any more. I assume that wasn't the stuff he was referring to though, I just have no idea what "electro" is if it's not electro house or electrofunk.

I don't understand why people feel the need to be such elitist fucks all the time. Electro house has it's merit, it's introduced North America to EDM, like Volvagia said. Yeah, some acts are overhyped and beaten to death (Deadmau5, etc), but they're not TERRIBLE.

ANTIMISANDRIST posted:How the gently caress is Justice not house? Maybe they are, maybe they aren't, but they definitely aren't typical of the genre unless you have a very short-sighted idea of what it is, so it's not that surprising that someone might think they are not house. Save your outrage for when someone says Masters at Work aren't house or something.

I love Lick The Rainbow. I'm not a fan of his minute-and-a-half long spacey interludes with no beat, but I dig the groovy, chopped-up bass and basically all of his "complextro" elements. P.S. Can anyone give me some feedback on this song I made? The DJ-music production thread seems to have completely ignored it.

Because its really important to the state of EDM in America? Who gives a poo poo if the music isn't that great, no one is forcing you to see Justice or Deadmaufive. So just don't go and instead be happy that EDM is actually becoming more accepted in the States.
