Skrillex was the first, now loving Alvin Risk, deadmau5 and a few others.

That's a nice wide variety to start with, some brostep, moombahton and whatever style deadmau5 decides to produce this week. This thread is a good place to expand on those but you'll get plenty of shitty witch house and boring downtempo recommendations along with the proper juicy tunes so make sure you give everything a sample.

Yup! And don't expect to like everything on the first listen. There's a lot of stuff I wouldn't be able to live without currently that I'd never have given a chance, say, 10 years ago.

Experienced something like that with Knife Party recently. Gave them a play on YouTube a while ago, hated it, heard them last night, loved it.

Edit: YouTube round 2.. hell yes.
 

Like that!

I forgot but if anyone listens to the mix let me know what you think! My last one gets like 5 listens a week which is really odd considering I only put it up here and on Facebook!
I will say im not sure about the mix out on 12 to after light.. might jib about with it in the morning. Oh yeah and totally aprechaite it wont be to the tastes of a large part of this thread haha

Digged your mix Johnlenham. I can tell you were a fan of the Rustie essential mix.

Welp, gave it a try. First crack at it, probably not all that great but I had fun with it. I'll have to acquire some proper software at some point I suppose. Get a better ear/mind for it as well, hopefully that'll come with practice.

Joy Orbison - Sicko Cell
Evian Christ - Fuck It None Of Ya'll Don't Rap
Machinedrum & Falty DL - Give In 2
Sepalcure - Breezin
Martyn - Twice As
Jim-E-Stack - 3rd Soul
ASAP Rocky - Purple Swag (Jim-E-Stack Bootleg)
Mess Kid - Sipslow (Morri$ Prpl Drvnk Remix)
XXYYXX - Overdone

edit: Stoked for the Jessie Ware LP. Singles have been good. That Disclosure remix is still one of my favorites.

Knife Party do know their shit as far as that ultra gritty, brostep-esque glitch-hop goes... and they should. They're the two founders of Pendulum! Unfortunately, can't program a set to save themselves (saw them do a DJ set, was all over the shop) but they definitely have some good tracks. Their remix of Porter Robinson's Unison is epic as shit.

Edit #2: If I can find the motivation, I'll try and work on a mix tonight. 7-8 tracks is a lot easier to plan than the CD-length ones I used to try to do.

Haha maybe! Its wellllll hard to make it cohesive! I also Wish I could find that Asap Twelvy as an instrumental as I just love the horns!
Giving it a listen now. I was going to use that machine drum song but couldn't place it!

Hey guys.

I was wondering where EDM DJs usually obtain songs for their mixes?

www.beatport.com
Amazon MP3 marketplace
www.audiojelly.com
www.discogs.com (vinyl)
www.juno.co.uk (vinyl)
www.decks.de (vinyl)

XLR8R Mix 243: One of my absolute favorite rappers and beat producers, John Wayne, the cowboy with the fatboy face. Not to be missed! - Joel

Southern California's Jonwayne is an imposing figure. First of all, he's quite literally a huge dude, someone who brings a sort of bearded, mountain-man aesthetic to the world of Low End Theory and the extended beat scene. Second, and more importantly, it seems like the former Bubblin' Up producer and rapper never stops working. Shortly after signing to the venerable Stones Throw label, which recently reissued an expanded version of his Oodles of Doodles beat tape and also plans to release a proper Jonwayne album later this year, the entrepeneurial young artist dropped This Is False, a free album/mixtape he described as, "not so much a pile of songs as it is an executed concept in viewing how our surroundings change our energy and vibrations." Now, he's followed that up with an exclusive mix for the XLR8R podcast series. While a quick glance at the tracklist might lead one to believe that it's simply a hip-hop mix—albeit a solid one—that would ignore Jonwayne's inclusion of choice bits of avant funk, experimental noise, vintage synth-pop, and tripped-out soundtracks. Combined with his penchant for playful knob-twiddling, the songs coalesce into a podcast that's highly engaging, for hip-hop diehards and novices alike. - XLR8R

Don't forget www.bleep.com! You can also find some really, really amazing and obscure tracks at clone.nl

I need to move into a bigger apartment ASAP so I can start doing vinyl ;_; There is so much music that I want/need that is vinyl only... Because of this, I always feel like I have to settle for less by finding a comparable digital track. Feels bad...

I buy FLACS from Bleep all the time, they're about the same price as MP3s from Beatport, if not cheaper!

Hope no one minds I jump on the throwing up a mix bandwagon.

bitchsayswhat

The Do - Too Insistent (Trentemoller Remix) (Six Degrees US)
Joe Church - Don't You Want to Be Mine (Dub) (Clone Records)
Contra Communem Opinonem - The Ruling Ideas (Drumpoet Community)
Damian Uzabiaga - Life Isn't Like That (Get Physical)
Adam Stacks - Hey Love (NATUERLICH ELEKTRONISCH)
Intruder feat. Jei - Amame (Dyed Soundorom Downtown Remix) (Defected)
Milscot - All Alone feat. Angela Sheik (Domyan Just Slow Remix) (FootMusicRecords)

Get in there for the Vitalic remix, such hotness. Pardon the awful blend from Contra > Damian. My shift button got stuck, and the loop released two bars late... Giving you "dancing-at-730am-in-your-underwear-after-a-wake-and-bake" realness.

Such a huge fan of alot of these guys, just found this thread, and there are alot of great recommendations in here but I have not been able to go through every page...lots of stuff.

I actually just got into Infected mushroom recently:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z6hL6fkJ1_k

They actually have some pretty decent stuff out, really diggin alot of it.


Also really into Nero lately : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pBKlm-RX2zU&feature=related

just doing some compairisons atm.

Anyone else on Gaf involved on the artistic side? I been dabbling with it for years, but it's mostly a hobby I do out of enjoyment. Worked a few at a club that friend owns a few times in Miami though.

As an F1 fan and kinda liking what Nero put out, I loved this


Hey guys, anyone have recommendations/suggestions for controllers? I'd love to have a setup where I can play with Serato (or whatever) at home with control discs and decks, but for portability's sake use a controller which only needs to be connected to a system's input rather than have cables go everywhere (and have a headphone out for monitoring, obv). Anything decent and not too exxy?
