Electro Recommendations

Premier · 14 Sep 2007 at 11:49

Ive just started to get into Electro and love stuff like Justice, Simian Mobile Disco and Digitalism

Just wandering if anyone else on here is into it and can recommend me some other good stuff to try out

Cheers

older: Vitalic, Daft Punk
newer: SebastiAn, MSTRKRFT, Teenage Bad Girl, Boys Noize

infact you'd probably be best just going through all the ed banger artists then start on kitsune.

Cool thanks for that Jampy,

have been listening to Daft punk for years but never heard of Vitalic.

I saw MSTRKRFT a few weeks ago at get loaded and thought they were excellent.

Will definatly check out the Ed Banger artists.

SebastiAn is pretty similar to Justice, really liked Ross Ross Ross so would recommend it.

Are 'Air' in that genre?

Mutu · 14 Sep 2007 at 15:47

Yeah, was gonna mention Air aswell.Moon Safari is one of the most essential releases of the 90's.

What about Endtroducing by DJ Shadow? It's more sampling and beats than electronica. Still aweseme.

Not strictly electronica, but the new Caribou is absolutely awesome. It's a varied record but towards the end it gets very synthy and electronic. Well reccommended.

Mutu · 14 Sep 2007 at 15:59

Oh, and how could I forget. Boards of Canada are phenominal. Check out everything they've done. Starting with 'Music has a right to Children'.

Yep, they're good. Check out Wisp if you like them - similar stuff, slightly more drums tho. :cool:

Flashbulb also deserves a mention.

DJ shadow is considered "Trip Hop" but is awesome nonetheless... one of the best gigs I've been to.

Martynt74 · 14 Sep 2007 at 18:53

Hot Chip are pretty good aswell

Premier · 14 Sep 2007 at 19:15

Thanks a lot guys

some awesome recommendations there will definatly go through the list and see what takes my fancy

Mutu · 15 Sep 2007 at 03:15

Just to emphasise the point, Boards of Canada are pretty much essential listening. I would seriously, SERIOUSLY, recommend getting some of their stuff.
