Looking for music...

Postby Scarecrow » Sat Mar 14, 2009 5:55 am

Ok so I'm pretty familiar with metal and all it has to offer but I also REALLY like electronic type fun stuff... just I'm not even sure what to call what I like (trance? EBM? techno? I have no clue).

I'm specifically looking for artists who perform generally party/dance type music. I like God is a Girl, 7 Years and 50 Days and Poison by Groove Coverage a lot. The thing with Groove coverage is most of their other stuff is extremely slow. I mean these songs are both sung kind of slow but the music is pretty upbeat and fast and a lot of electronic sounds going on. I also really like stuff by DJ Satomi like Waves and Castle in the Sky. Losing You, People of Tomorrow, and of course, I'm Blue from Eiffel 65. Umm...Right Here, Right Now I also like except for the parts where the singing comes in... just like the music parts.... not a fan of Fat Boy Slim in general though.

Anyway... that should be enough samples (and I think thats ALL my samples). But ya... that's it... I'm not into other types of electronic music. I've tried some and most of the time its just not party/dance type enough or enough going on electronically.

Oh and I don't buy music where you have to download it. It needs a hard copy album...

Edit: Oh and I can't believe I forgot to mention Daft Punk... but ya I like most of their stuff. One More Time is a favorite.

I can help you out, but I have a feeling your comments about "other types of electronic music" are in part aimed directly at me, so for tactfulness' sake I'm going to wait for you to say otherwise before offering any recommendations.

Well electronic music in general I realize is a very broad genre so I was just trying to get it narrowed down a bit. There are other electronic songs and bands that probably fit in different categories but I didn't post them because generally, that's not the style I'm looking for. Part of this was to help define what genres of electronic music I actually like and what other bands also play in the same vein. That's why I posted the samples...

I've delved in electronic music briefly a long time ago but now I have extra money I can afford to actually explore this a little more seriously.

Right now I'm thinking my best bets would be albums that have the top dance song from different bands cause most bands dont have a lot of really good content (Like I said, Groove Coverage... they have a few great ones but the rest is really just blah. Another band I forgot to mention is Smile.DK. I like their music a lot but their lyrics are so "Boys are hot" type stuff I can't really listen to them and retain any type of dignity as a guy :P

I never actually thought of this but it is a good idea. I remember my sister having a DDR game once though and everything was sped up a lot (Castle in the Sky, the one you suggested infact, was on there but it was 10x faster than the one you linked too). I like fast music and all but when it sounds sped up, I don't like that.
