What kind of Electronic music are you listening to right now? These are some songs I am currently listening to. Justice-DVNO, Phantom autokratz- reaktor boom the cat- mega n Crystal Castles- Crimewave Daft Punk- Da Funk, Robot Rock MSTRKRFT- Street Justice Simian Mobile Disco- I believe, Hustler Klaxons- Atlantis to Interzone Kavinsky- Testarossa autodrive Feel free to post anything relating to this great genre that is usually neglected, and if there is already a thread about this it can be merged.
I like this genre too. Royksopp, Young Love, and some Sherwood is electronic too. Also, the new Bloc Party single- Flux is fantastic.
Wow Royksopp is awesome. Had never heard of them. That's one of the things I like about this kind of music, I never get tired of finding new artsits.
Which decade? I'm still a big fan of Kraftwerk and Gary Numan. I bought Royksopp after seeing that GEICO commercial with the caveman on the walking sidewalk in the airport.
Any decade. I pretty much listen to newer electronica but I am sure there are some great older groups I don't know about. BTW, Kraftwerk is brilliant, every new group states that they were influenced by them.
Rhythm Mechanics and Macca have a couple of tracks that i am listening to often... That Hustler track is fat... big fan... And i really like the newest Chem Bros. Album No matter how many times i listen i can't get this out of my head... Renato Cohen vs Tim Deluxe - just kick (carl cox mix) or Coldplay - Talk (jacques lu conts thin white duke remix)

Thought I'd resurrect this thread. There's a lot of really good electronic music coming out of Australia right now. Pnau. Latest album is a bit hit and miss but there's some good stuff on there. Like Embrace [youtube]BZzA00JjOkg[/youtube] Cut Copy. Released their first album this year, and it was sensational right through. My favourite being Lights and Music [youtube]CCRuCAcAZK0[/youtube] The Presets. Toured O/S more extensively than the others so probably the best known. Latest album is sensational, kicked it off with All Of My People. [youtube]M1ufW2INWmM[/youtube] Plenty more out there though.
I really like embrace too. Check out the Boys Noize rmx of Lights and Music, I like it better than the original.
