You can tell Electronic Music has gone stale now considering Daft Punk and Justice are name dropped literally every 5 seconds. 1993 - please comeback
Go here - listen to the track "Host" and be amazed.

huh? daft punk just gets mentioned because they have a new cd coming out this year and they are the britney spears of electronic. ive been listening much more to mstrkrft and justice the past couple years than daft punk...Gaylord Sweetwood said:

Im still working on the idea, so nothing has been decided as of yet!
just saw the transporter 3 tonight at the cheap theatres and i gotta say it was much better than everyone made it out to be. very unrealistic but still fun. the best part of it though was there were a few songs in it that were pretty awesome. did a search and cant find them anywhere. all the links are expired.
Birdy Nam Nam - Trans Boulogne Express
Benjamin Theves - Texas (Sebastian Remix)
they sound pretty good to me...

Forgot about this site but ran into a couple of tracks I had downloaded years ago and I remembered it

Lots of female vocals for optimal melancholy. Mainly remixes but sooo good. Each release is by different DJs (I believe) and is can be downloaded via torrents.

I think if you already have the CD, you don't need to buy the vinyl.
I couldn't get the Discovery-LP a couple of minutes ago. btw.
But I got this:

It's on the Japanese version of Made in the Dark along with another bonus track called "My brother is watching me".
New Mustard Pimp song that I haven't heard called "Gold" up on www.fuckbadmusic.com. It's rad. Takes a bit too long to build, but after that it's pretty sweet.

I'm sorry, I must've missed your question. I'm from Europe, yeah, Ghent in Belgium to be more precise. And yes, there are tons of clubs around here that play this kind of music, I'm particularly lucky here in Ghent. We've got two very important ones:
Culture Club: One of the best in Europe. 2 Many DJ's and The Glimmers used to be residents there, that should give you a clue as to how good it was and still is.
Make Up Club: Also very good, bit more indie oriented. Aeroplane had a residency there last year I think.
Lots of awesome dj's come here! I'm a lucky man

we generally get a big dj or two every couple months, but mostly just the bigger names like tiesto, benassi, and armand van buuren. damn man you are lucky. and our electronic club is pretty scary lookin lol. some of the nicer clubs in town would be so awesome if they played this kind of music. i mean, it's music you can actually dance to! i still don't understand how there are bars exclusively playing rock.. (i like rock but wtf how do you dance to that?)Kitsuné said:I'm sorry, I must've missed your question. I'm from Europe, yeah, Ghent in Belgium to be more precise.

Daft Punk vs. Adam Freeland. Cool video, but WTF is up with the song?!?
Interesting point of note: I have those bear figurines they use to represent DP... got them with a ltd. edition copy of Discovery that I paid $50AU for

Shaneus said:I hear ya... IDK WTF happened with Adam Freeland. Fear and We Want Your Soul were amazing tracks. He's lost it
I didn't like his GU very much at all, was expecting him to continue with breaks instead of going the way of fidget/French electrohouse/whatever they're calling it nowadays... although Gui Boratto did a great mix of "Silverlake Pills".
I don't think it's hatred, just that pretty much everyone seems to be doing it these days. There seem to be too many DJ's who just play what's popular rather than what they're known for. Case in point, I remember seeing Meat Katie a little over a year ago, and I think he played *maybe* one nu-school breaks track in his whole set. Rest was just 4/4 tech/electro. Pissed me off no end, it did.
meh i can't really complain about it. i only ever hear stuff that i search for on the internet so i haven't really been exposed to it as much as some of you in europe would be. so its still fresh for me. but i do hear you in that i am finding a shitload of generic electro/house songs now. it seems theres only like 10 djs that im actually downloading more than one song of.

Thats kinda how Utah is as well, ive got to see Benassi and Armin in the last year or so. Just two nights ago we got to see Oakenfold and also Dieselboy. There are surprisingly a lot of DJ's that come though, utah has a pretty big scene.
I wish I lived in europe though gawd damn.
I just listened to some of the rest of the Fever Ray album and it sounds...like the Knife. Unsurprising, I suppose, but it's kind of disappointing.
Flavor of the month going away. Before Fidget house it was minimal techno, before minimal techno it was tech house, before tech house it was prog house, before prog house it was trance. I thought judging by the sudden popularity of "electro house" that it'd stick around for a few more minutes, but it is what it is. *shrugs*
It's just how the electronic music industry rolls. The big sound that's popular with the kids and the bigger DJ set changes every couple of years. After the peak, the mass popularity fades away and its popularity settles into place with its niche, big or small, of fans and followers.
Oh, and to be honest, Freeland hasn't really been relevant since Techtonics.

I was one of the first to jump on the whole "fidget" train, but it quickly burnt me out. Still like it quite a bit though, but I'm finding it hard to keep listening to it. Variation is the key, I usually (try to) play an eclectic set nowadays.
I love how 2 Many Dj's sets were 4 years ago, they were incredibly eclectic. I guess a lot of you know their famous mash-up of 10cc vs Destinies Child. They used to play that sort of things all the time! Now it's generally just a bunch of hyped and new electro/fidget-tracks. They're still fuck-awesome though, I just miss the old 2 Many DJ's stuff.
I actually find myself listening more to the softer stuff nowadays. Nu-disco and the likes.

i understand that. it's weird to me though. i guess its like pop music in a way? electronic music seems to not even be a genre. its like a whole mass of music. it's as if it's one big genre, and country/rap/rock/rnb/pop are all one genre. so weird to me lol. when was trance big? im just wondering since i used to like hard trance a lot (but it wasn't because of it being popular, it was good for chomping discobiscuits).Davidion said:
Trance was big around 10 years ago, when I was into it. Then after a while, all these other electronic subgenres developed and trance just stagnated. It's about the only type of dance music that has actually gone backwards.
But, thanks to its lack of evolution, I found far better types of music to get into

It depends a lot on what definition you have of "electronic music". It could be the general "everything that's made with electronic instruments", but just as with hiphop and metal, it has a lot of sub genres. I'm not even going to bother with summing them all up.
Electronic music, in particular the hip/indie/electro stuff, has become more and more popular in recent years, so it's also more and more prone to certain trends and hypes. One of the biggest examples of that would probably be Crookers, they're massive over here in Europe, and a lot of new acts are copying their sound right now. I fucking annoys me really, because you end up with a lot of stuff that sounds exactly the same. As I said before, I want something eclectic in the end, mix different styles and sounds. I don't want to end up dancing to 2 hours of the same thing, how good it may be, it just gets boring after 2 or 3 songs. I should record one of my sets to show you what I mean.
I don't know shit about trance, just that I don't like it at all, so I can't answer that question
