3rd World Dictator posted:So any advice on how to ramp up on all this stuff? The annoying thing is that a ton of artists just put out EP's, or billions of remixes, so I have no clue how to get good stuff. Welcome to the world of electronic music i guess. If an artist releases an album the best tracks are about 6months to a year old already. you just gotta search around, ever wonder why the guys who know all the best tracks are massive loving nerds?

Vernacular posted:also, did anybody see simian at control on friday? killer night I saw them live a couple of times in 09, but now they are doing "dj sets" whats their set up like is it just a basic dj set-up or do they still have their big screens/lightshow and run round their podium of controllers and laptops? im asking because im gonna go see them at glasto but they have it down as a "dj set" an i think their live stuff is much better than dj but maybe its the same thing?

zerojake posted:regardless if you're on the fence about seeing someone you like live because its a dj set instead of their live stuff, what's wrong with you? be honest, no producer has enough good tracks to merit listening to them for two hours straight. even for someone like daft punk whose whole pyramid lazer light show and whatever bullshit i'd be just as happy hearing what other tunes they think are worth playing as hearing them play the same stuff ive listened to at home. djs arent a rock band, and treating them like they are is only going to make your experiences worse Because you are at a festival and there are a million other acts on at the same time, dj sets can sometimes be poo poo for a number of reasons. I've seen them live and dj (albeit the dj set was years ago and they have overhauled their whole show) and the live performance was 100000x better. Thats why. zerojake posted:djs arent a rock band, and treating them like they are is only going to make your experiences worse i was only asking about the type of show that they had been doing recently due to past experiences but, thanks for the random advice i guess???

aejix posted:Thanks for the real talk! There's been a ton of music or genres that I never really liked or got into but then I had someone explain it's roots, history, evolution, all that poo poo and even if I didn't really dig it after that, at least I had a better understanding of where it came from and what it 'means' or how people can relate to it. Sometimes just being open to those other perspectives eventually got me into new stuff in a big way. Get diplo's 2007 BBC essential mix its 2 hours of him mixing a shitload of genres and i think someone told me he got a lot of poo poo from people because he dared to play a range of stuff (including "Do the bartman" by bart simpson) that wasnt straight up techno or house. I think thats how the story goes i could be wrong. Some of his remixes are a tad hit and miss for the casual listener if you arent a big fan, his mixes are pretty cool though. The major lazer EM is pretty excellent party music ive found

Vernacular posted:This new Gesaffelstein EP out on Turbo is all sorts of filthy. Y'all need to give it a listen Thanks for the heads up. Got free tickets for writing for the paper to see "We have band" who are nothing new but decent electro-pop in a hot chip vein, pretty unremarkable really but its a free night out so they could be better live? Also might get free tickets to simian on fri if i can make it, want to check out their all techno set. That could go either way though.

cubicle gangster posted:He used to be terrible and never turn up to gigs, got to the point where nobody could be arsed booking him. When he started to get big he was a loving nightmare to deal with apparently. Still happens on a number of nights with different djs hence some lineups looking pretty bloated. Really annoying if you're the type of person who get tickets to see one dj though. Just get a buzz on and enjoy the music i guess.

zerojake posted:I think you're way overestimating US ravers. The last rave-esque event I went to was probably ~90% hardcore, 10% lady gaga, bad daft punk remixes, etc. This was in 2010. Raves have not changed at all. The thing is too is I think in england 'rave' is a much broader term, here it's very specifically large-scale glowsticks-and-e mid-90s techno parties. Ive never been to a "rave" which has turned out to have hardcore djs playing and ive been on a few nights out where i didnt really even know who i was going to see. "Rave" in the uk tends to have connotations a bit with "nu-rave" and indie shite thanks to the NME and all that bollocks but that was years ago. Rave nowadays can mean anything from DnB, techno, dubstep, garage, grime, indie, electro, pop etc etc. That said the word "rave" is hardly used over here, partly because most people still think back to the notorious illegal raves that happened around londons orbital ring road back in the late 80's early 90's and tbh none of the events on now are anything like that at all. Only word ive heard nowadays is "events" which is much better than rave or party.
