Surprised no one has mentioned Surkin yet. Class electro/french house.
-Surkin - White Knight Two
-Surkin - Ultra Light
And Tensnake, heard Mainline which gave me an instant boner for it's 90s house sound, and ofcourse Coma Cat.
my absolute favourite track from last year Benediction from Hot Natured & Ali Love.
And Drums of Death.
Azari & III - Reckless With Your Love
I don't know if this has been posted (probably has) but everyone should give it a listen:
808 State - Pacific State
No Underworld posted yet. GAF you are letting me down

There was a track that both Chuckie and David Guetta played in their set. The Lyrics were something like "a party without me, I make the beat that make you dance, a party without me I wanna see your f**king hands".
Anyone know what track that is? It starts at about 22 minutes during Guetta's weekend 2 set.

OP has been updated with some Rukes photos. I had to put the images in quotes though to avoid messing up the width of the page.
You're in luck, I posted this in the Groundbreaking Electronic thread a few days ago:

Isn't it though? I hadn't listened to it in a while, but posting that link last night inspired me to give it another spin. Still as brilliant as ever.
edit: While I'm on the subject, everyone should check out this storming prog/psy remix from himself and The Digital Blonde under their 00.db alias.
Faithless - Sun to Me (00.db remix)
its Glowinthedark new song, which is still ID at the moment, not sure when its out probably sometimes later in the summer
GlowInTheDark-UMF ID
I love listening to DI.fm Liquid DnB at work, a nice change every now and then.
I much prefer this remix to the original, though the original isn't bad. Very radio friendly

I just discovered Owl Vision right now, he released a new album yesterday you can listen to on soundcloud. Sort of like Gothic-electro-house, similar to JUSTICE i guess.
https://soundcloud.com/owlvision/sets/dystopia
https://soundcloud.com/owlvision/sets/dystopia
cos i'm meant to be doing an assignment...
Juan Maclean - Happy House
Holy Ghost - It Gets Dark
Cassius - La Mouche (DJ Falcon Remix)
Aeroplane - We Can Fly
Aeroplane - Whispers
Azari & III - Reckless With You're Love (Tensake Remix)
Daphni - Yes I Know
Royksopp - The Girl and the Robot
Tiger & Woods - Gin Nation
Todd Terje - Inspector Norse
Vitalic - La Rock 01
PNAU - Wild Strawberries (last two were my shit in my electro house, drug fueled youth)
You live in Melbourne, yeah? We need to meet up, have a few beers. PS. Seeing Terje play Inspector Norse live gave it a whole new energy. Bit miffed at the hipsters singing along to it, but it went off pretty severely regardless. Top gig.
Have you heard Vitalic's most recent joint? I dig it.

My god that is one disturbing video lol.
Finally an official thread for dance music! subscribed
I've been really into edm the last couple years. Been to a ton of shows and festivals in the SoCal area as well.
This month hasn't been too bad either: Deniz Koyu, Promise Land @ The Avalon, Laidback Luke @ Pomona Fox, Beyond Wonderland in San Bernardino, Porter Robinson @ Sutra (won free tickets!), and I got Coachella in 2 weeks! Nice to see Rukes posting in the thread too
If you're new to the music want to hear more, check out my Spotify playlist.

~350 tracks of my favorites and the mainstream stuff i could find on Spotify(mostly house and trancey sounds, not really into dubstep much). Feel free to subscribe, I'm constantly adding to it (;
Looking forward to discovering some new music here

Hell yeah, amazing song. Can't wait for his new album this summer. I'm loving Skylarking.
Must be the Love is great as well.
The Shogun mix of Must be the Love is actually really good too. I might even like it more than the original. Not sure yet.

Is this another like These Hopeful Machines, or another experimental like the one after that? I like both sides of BT, but I really love his EDM side more.

Nah Hobart (the scene here is as godawful as you might expect). Normally come up for a few festivals/gigs through the year but money's been tight since I went to Europe so I've only made it to Laneway in recent times (will see if anyone decent comes for Splendour).
Got a couple of house head mates living up there though, think they went to Moody Man the other week (and this barnstormer a few years back).
Music videos of some songs i cant stop listening to
Mat Zo & Porter Robinson - Easy (neat)
Zedd - Clarity ft. Foxes
Arty feat. Chris James - Together We Are

Welcome! We seem to share the same events and tastes, should meet up for events! My next one is going to be W&W at Exchange in a month. Taking a small break until then haha. We should have a socal GAF meetup at massives and shows if there are enough of us
And I'm uploading all my mixes in case I can get some trance converts in here, but in the meantime if anybody is interested in trance but doesn't know where to start take a listen to my mix. There's a few different styles of trance so let me know which songs you liked and I'll make similar recommendations

Language still remains my favorite electronic dance video yet
I'm not sure what Hobart's like, but there's every chance you know some people I know, a good mate of which moved to Melbourne late last year. Hell, I actually played down there with him MANY years ago (many = ~5 or so). Next time you're up here, definitely hit me up, there's always good shit on! This Sunday is Superpitcher... but I think that kind of talk may be frowned upon here ;(
Club banger, *probably* my favourite track of 2012. Got a bit overplayed toward the end... but still, great:
Duke Dumont - The Giver
Or maybe this track was. Not sure if it fits in this thread or not, but it just won Best Indie Dance track for 2012 at WMC so I guess that counts for something:
Scandal - Just Let Me Dance (Maxxi Soundsystem Remix)
One more, track I only discovered last year (thank you, Forza Horizon leaked trailer) that just rips shit over the original, without taking anything away from it:
The Chemical Brothers - Hey Boy Hey Girl (Soulwax remix)
Here's one of the coolest concerts I've never been too. It's only about a half hour and really worth the watch for the visuals alone. deadmau5 Don't be Afraid of the Dark
Also, here's two TrippleJ mixes from Madeon and Porter Robinson, both are great.
Madeon
Porter Robinson
I'm pretty fond of this guy called OVERWERK. He releases a lot of his stuff for free, so if you like any of these you can get it off his links.
Daybreak (GoPro H3RO edit) (Just wait till a minute in.)

I'm also a big fan of mashups, so here's two guys I'd recommend giving a listen, and just some other random stuff I've been listening to otherwise.

The irony of the mainstream thread being more exclusive and adversarial than the "underground" thread is delicious as an observer.
Then you should probably make a new thread instead whose title encompasses even the music you want to exclude.
I prefer to endlessly listen to this version myself lol. <3 cowbell
Also in Aus and I get what you're saying 100% on both counts.
When I go out to your average appeal to all bases nightclub they play levels, usher, pitbull and more from those styles of music except with more current examples heh (and then replay them for 6 months milking them forever). And it's fun. You sing along cause you've been exposed to these songs so much you already know the words and the lyrics are simple and you dance and have a good time. I wouldn't listen to it on my own time though I don't think.
And that's fine, but sometimes, you can take a risk, step outside of your comfort zone, go to somewhere more "boutique" who has someone playing other than the house djs and try something a little different and surprisingly, enjoy it and it can be just as fun. I can't sentence good.
this feature from mixmag is pretty relevant.
on your second point:
mmm I think it's becoming a bit of a US thing to do, applying a label to something and that label kinda works but kinda doesn't. (see also: dubstep)
Saw a photo today of Skrillex in the studio with my boy Flume. Will be watching what comes of this with interest. Hopefully the skrillex input is more like his new song where he is Skrill from the UK and less wub wub.
I've heard of all the others but who's Daft Punk?
Replying with my most played Azari & III song Hungry For The Power (Jamie Jones remix)
<3 duke dumont
So much better than the original.
D/led the tape the other day but haven't got to it yet, gonna do that now.

It's so weird... I never associate you with liking dance music, but your avatar... yeah.
PS. This version is way better.
I'm sure you note that the conflict is a result of posters who dislike the thread posting their dislike, rather than the posters who like the thread being antagonistic from the start. Still as scrumptious?
Yet the title and thread were clear to pretty much all the posters it was designed to interest, and the only posters having issue were the ones from the original thread.
Again, instigating for no reason.

Shame on you for not knowing the soulwax remix of hey boy, hey girl till last year!
I'm somewhat of a fan.

I wouldn't call gdt's confusion posting his dislike and yes.
As Cagey said, it was people from the other thread who decided to come in here and bitch about this thread's existence. And why? Because of the goddamn title? Give me a break.
I'm filling out a list of Ultra sets I missed. Who was worth catching?
I've only heard so far:
- Avicii's epic troll job (trolling so good/bad Kanye would interrupt Taylor Swift to defend it)
- Deadmau5
- Bassnectar
- ASOT (all of it)
Yep. Hiding behind a retroactive claim of confusion over semantics is such unnecessary dishonesty.

deadmau5's set was great but it takes a while to get going. Bassnectar I heard was good but no one can seem to find it online. Same with the Cirez D set, I really want to get my hands on that but it's nowhere to be found.
Edit: Envio - For You (The Blizzard Remix) is amazing if you like chilled out trance (i.e. not like the W&W stuff you hear these days). It really hits its stride around 3:30. I'm gonna look up more stuff from this group.

Pretty sure that most of the people who popped their head in here and were somewhat confused (like myself) were genuinely so because it was interpreted that "Electronic Dance Music" is any kind of dance music you can dance to. It was a big surprise personally to find that the term only encompassed a relatively narrow field of what "electronic music" fits into (which is almost infinitely massive), as I'm sure it was to a handful of others.
I think why a lot of people are on the back foot about this is because of seeing posts like "Oh good, finally an EDM thread" when to them, an already appropriate one exists. Then comments such as "This is the general EDM that's less intimidating to new comers, if you want to be a music snob stick to your other thread bullshit" pop up and of course, people get defensive.
Personally, I don't have a problem in the slightest with this type of thread existing (in concept), in light of the knowledge that "EDM" means something very specific (compared to what the acronym literally stands for). It's people assuming that everyone should know what "EDM" is and how it's different to the "Electronic music thread" that gets on my goat. Perhaps to avoid future people from posting things that belong in the other thread in here, change the thread title to "Mainstream EDM". After all, it only started because of how that acronym was interpreted (and understandably so, IMO). Better to have a few people in here going "Well, what other kind of EDM is there?" than newbies posting "Imma let you all finish, but Aphex Twin is the best electronic dance music act of ALL TIME" and getting shouted down for it.
It's the same reason you can't arc up at someone for not knowing that a "thong" in the US has a completely different meaning to a "thong" in Australia. If I created a thread called "Thongs |OT|" and lost my shit because everyone thought I was talking about these:
when I was actually talking about these:
then I'd look like a bit of a dick (and rightly so, IMO).

Agreed with all of this. "Mainstream EDM" would be a much clearer and more accurate title. I don't like the type of music in the other thread, but I can certainly see how confusing a general "EDM" title is. It would be like creating a "Rap" thread but then telling people they should only post about Jay-Z and Kanye because when "most people" think of rap music that's the first thing that comes to mind. It's awfully presumptuous.

the thread title confused the hell out of me. anyone that is a certain age, grew up with EDM as the all encompassing meaning to dance music. not pop dance. mainstream dance. it was just dance.

What exactly do you have against adding a word to the title? It's simple, and objectively much clearer. Why not do it?
