no shittin up here! good to see we got a new thread though. for content: http://www.phoenixloop.com it's a new blog me and a friend started. He's more into the older style of EDM (DnB, Breaks, Trance, etc.) while I'm more all-over-the-place party music kinda dude, so hopefully you'll find some awesome stuff there. Also: all our stuff is cleared to post, so go nuts. We keep it on the level.

twistedmentat posted:It may have been different in other places, but Toronto seemed to completely dump one for the later very quickly. The Dance music station went from playing house and other electronic music to Boy Bands and Teen Girl singers almost over night. Well, I guess it's not that bad because I didn't have to hear Venga Boys anymore. ?? soooo what you're saying is that albums like "the fat of the land" fall under the same heading as the Vengabus album? because, those were two entirely different scenes, and while the danish dance pop gave way to the spice girls, it didn't really affect stuff like The Prodigy and The Chemical Brothers. edit: and for different places, I'm coming from the same neck of the woods (ottawa), and i really did not see what you're describing at all.

twistedmentat posted:To me it seemed that one form of music was the top dog, and then it was replaced by another, which is normal, though It was nice to have something other than pre-fab pop bands. thats the thing: it didn't change overnight, because they were both running in tandem with each other for a majority of time. I'm not saying that you're wrong because our opinions are different, I'm saying you're wrong because the facts aren't even correct.

Or did he hand it to you and say, "Learn some Manners!" from the fact that he says its not "grim or frostbitten" I'm pretty sure he's into a style of music that incorporates corpsepaint and axes.

Too bad nothing Hudson Mohawke has ever done comes close to this (best contender would be Overnight). Anybody got any recommendations along these lines? Apart from the Adult Swim remixes, that is. holy poo poo, is the whole Adult Swim thing like this, because this track is loving horrible. it's pretty much the definition of "Not getting it". "hey guys, lets just throw it all in a stand up mixer and hope it comes out ok!"

basically anyone who defines their favorite genre as "bangin' house", "bangin' trance", or "bangin' electro" is best avoided, as well as the dude who comes up to me at gigs and tries to school me on a 4 year old track like he's in the know. seriously, gently caress that dude.

Your elitist attitude constantly makes this thread, and the last thread complete garbage to read most of the time. Not everybody has the same musical tastes as you, and you shouldn't expect them to or try to force it down their throat. BUT IM A DJ AND PEOPLE COME UP TO ME AT CLUBS HEH it's not a difference of opinion when it's just factually wrong.

Regression posted:- what I like is "deep house", generally slower songs I guess, more intense-sounding, melancholic, songs also for "chilling" and not just dancing, something like that. maybe it has something to do with Tempo. ever thought of Jacques Renault? http://www.jacquesrenault.com/ http://www.myspace.com/jacquesrenault http://rcrdlbl.com/artists/Jacques_Renault/music (i especially recommend the track free for DL here called "Magic Games". This track is pretty much one of the best examples of the genre)

Lysis posted:I'm going to respectfully disagree here. The constant mashing together of sounds is appropriate for discussion of the electronic/dance music scene, and if we had a bunch of narrow genre'd threads, they would flood nmd and then die from underpopulation. Plus we would never have these entertaining arguments. There should probably be an electro-pop thread though. tell that to the dudes going "Someone (c)rapped on my BlogHouse!" in this thread.

Therefore, you like it.

B-more DJ checking in. you're a bit off, but those are definitely good recommendations. poo poo you're looking for: - Unruly Records. In General. This is basically THE bmore label. It's ran by Scottie B who is in a lot of ways one of the dudes who was around in the beginning when Hip House et al got swallowed up in the baltimore club scene and became what we call Bmore Club. M.I.A. - Paper Planes (Sottie B Remix) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3l3A3ALppN8 - Top Billin'. These dudes from Finland OWN. they're not straight up bmore but they sure as poo poo spend alot of time in that neighborhood of music. DJ Anonymous & Top Billin - Money To Burn http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e7D1k6c-z2M start there and branch out. If anyone wants more poo poo on bmore, i can answer pretty much any question on it and would be happy too. edit: and on the subject. EMYND. oh god Emynd. this guy is pretty much the realest dude around and anything he touches turns to gold. I booked him up here in ottawa and it was an absolute poo poo show. they guy rocked the loving room pretty much exclusively playing his own tracks. Get everything by him.

I've obviously heard of major lazer before, and I kinda figured it might be dancehall I"m looking for, but nowhere like turntablelabs or beatport have that as a genre! there's a bit of a disconnect between "legit" dancehall and this stuff, but you should delve into more straight up Dancehall stuff because it's pretty much loving amazing.
