I really, really hate this. Keljet's remix, while more traditional/less trendy, is infinitely more enjoyable to me.
One thing I want to do this year is get way better at making music. I made this today. I mess up frequently, as I made the samples and just triggered them/effects on the fly. Part of my wanting to get better is to not go in and waste time fixing this stuff, because I know it's just temporary. Anyway. Enjoy? http://soundcloud.com/dartastic/abunai-that-ish Feedback would be cool.

I like the name "future garage" instead of postdub myself...

Was listening to this a bit earlier... I really like the atmospheric beginning, and the stuff that comes on 1 hour in. Not a fan of that whole Berghain style techno in the middle (the Shed, Marcel Dettman, Ben Klock type stuff). Nice mixing though.
Now I have to go through okno's 2 mixes as well.
Shaneus said:Did the NYD music festival thing yesterday with Summadayze in Melbourne. A brief rundown of who I saw:
Boys Noize: Not bad, set was a little inconsistent but had a few bangers in there.
Justice: Hooooly fuck, very impressive set. Seemed to play mostly tracks of theirs (couldn't name them but definitely had that "Justice" vibe) but came out with a few surprises... namely Morning Lemon by Chems and the Lu Cont remix of Silver Screen Shower Scene (in it's entirety). Fucking blew my mind when I heard them play the latter... made my day
Claude Von Stroke: Very unimpressive. Set was all over the shop, going from DnB to electro and everywhere inbetween. Only saw him for about 15 mins but that was enough.
Miguel Migs: Incredible. Played the perfect music for a festival smack-bang in the middle of the Summer. The smoothest REAL house I'd heard for ages... could imagine it playing in Paradise Garage in the mid-80s. Surprise of the day.
N.E.R.D.: What the fuck were they doing there? Fuck the organisers for getting bands like that to dance music festivals :/
What about Chromeeeooo-oh-ohh?!?!

Eclier - Boxon Say Hello - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vplLbqQwLiQ
I Hope someone enjoys this song as much as I do. It was one of those songs I heard on last.fm and instantly fell in love with. I'm listening to his "Alpha River" EP, it's really good stuff.

So...I occassionaly try to enter this thread and figure out what's going on. But it looks like a lot is going on. The point is, I am daunted; it seems too much for me to go through. Is there anybody who has posted a summary? Maybe of some new groups to listen to? I don't like "weird" music, that much. But I am listening to Eclier - Boxon say hello and I kind of like it. However, I'd still interested a bit of a throwdown: what's the best, or (since it's subjective), the most-well liked and agreed upon good music from this thread. Thanks. I'll go sift through it a bit now.

There is no right answer. Going off your example is kind of tough too because it is really two different scenes in one. What do you like about the song you posted? Do you like the sound or the structure? For you I suggest Siriusmo.

I actually really enjoyed this.
I suppose what I have to do is just dig through it when I feel like and try something new.

Its a simultaneous shot of uppers & downers that few could pull off with so much cohesion and style. #SALUTE-BRENMAR
* 1. Brenmar Intro
* 2. 112 Let This Go (Brenmar Edit)
* 3. Brenmar Tasting

So, dropped another paycheck into my Beatport account. Bought an assload of disco-tinged stuff. I´ve reached a stage where all I want to do anymore is just sit down and mix, it´s getting kind of ridiculous. Right now I´m putting together a little disco/house mix for an upcoming road trip this weekend. Pretty excited about it, disco is quickly becoming my new favorite thing to mix.

Whoa this is long but informative.
Question: what has been discussed so far without me having to go through all 55 pages with a fine tooth comb?
Also do I just recommend stuff I've listened to currently or past stuff too?

Sorry if any of these have been posted before but here are some of my favorites I think are worth a listen. I put up youtubes cause I can't find my files at the moment.
BT & Paul van Dyk - Namistai
Serendipity - Benya ft. Penny Nixon - Armin Van Buuren
Grand National - Talk Amongst Yourselves [Sasha Involver Edit]
BT - Suddenly
BT - 1.618 (Or anything of This Binary Universe)
Herbie Hancock - Metal Beat (recommended for those in electro-funk)
Sarah McLachlan - Stupid (Hyper remix)
Mike Koglin - Dj Sasha Feat. (John Digweed) Enjoy The Silence
Orbital - Meltdown
Orbital - Halcyon On and On
Afro Celt Sound System - Riding the Waves
Hopefully someone will like one of those.

Are they all new tracks (with the exception of Orbital, obv.)? I haven't seen Mike Koglin's name mentioned *anywhere* since he did that amazing remix of Lustral's Everytime.Devolution said:
PS. Stick with YT videos when linking tracks. Even if tracks are legitimately free, pretty sure it's sketchy ground to link them to here (unless you're the artist).
Otherwise, be sure to stick around! The more people around here (and the smaller the ratio gets of that damn dubstep talk
) the better Almost done creating the tracklist for my new mix, which is inspired by NYE when me and a friend were mixing B2B at my place. (the original recording sucks, we got drunk too soon )
Hopefully I can finish the mix this weekend, and ofcourse I'll share it with you guys.
On another note, Luna City Express rules.

Just Jamie - http://ge.tt/#4Gxtflx
Rolling in the Deep has taken over my life and steal pads are the coolest instrument ever.
I like it from Beach house on but that Becoming Real remix is fire! That kid is gonna blow up big. Plus I caught earlier in the show that Zomby is dropping a full length this year. Doesn't look like 2011 will be slowing down any.

Glad to know the YT vids are fine, I'm just used to sharing threads.
Most of them are older. The most current one is the BT - Suddenly track. A lot of the time I get introduced to new artists/remixes from Armin's State of Trance or Sasha's mixes/compilations.
I haven't delved more into electronic music in a while though. I'm hoping this thread will help me rectify that.
I was having a chat to my DJ mate last weekend, and we're predicting that 2011 will be the year that we return to good, old, classic house music (like back in the mid-late 80s). Probably more hoping than predicting, but I've been right the last couple of years so finger's crossed!subrock said:been listening to lost of phonique and house music in general lately so this mix I'm going to put out in a few days is a pretty big change of style for me. good winter shit though.
Perhaps Full Intention will make it big again?
Scape feat. D'Empress - Be My Friend (Michael Gray remix)
Deepest Blue - Shooting Star
Both house classics, some of my favourite tracks.

I thought that was 2009-2010?
Tony Lionni - Found A Place, Tensnake - Coma Cat, Motor City Drum Ensemble's stuff - all have retro/Chicago flavors to them and were really big the past few years. I predict a shift from the slower, druggy nu-disco sounds to more full on 125+ BPM disco house (like the good ol' days of 1999). Already I've been hearing a bit more filtered funk than usual.
Not big here... Australia tends to get the more easily-produced stuff which has been, in the last few years, fluoro-electro (that bedroom producers can easily push out). It's a lot harder for people to create a super-clean track with nice vocals and insane production values so it's rarely done here.djtiesto said:I thought that was 2009-2010?

That, and people's tastes down here are undoubtedly less refined than wherever you're from
But yeah, I completely agree with your sentiments. Miguel Migs completely rocked it at a festival here on NYD and he was playing exactly what we're talking about. I've even been going through some of Frankie Knuckles' catalog over the last week and finding some timeless shit that I could drop into a mix without sounding out of place in the slightest.

michael cassette - ghost in the machine

such an amazing, amazing album. sounds like it came right out of my childhood.
I'm inclined to agree with you, but with the release of such INSANE hits as Bakey Ustl's "A Tender Places" and Axel Boman's "Purple Drank," I longingly hope for more of that sound, and, in a way, dread the inevitable move away from the opiate-like drug sound to the more up tempo psychedelic variety. One thing it's going to lead to is the resurgence of the "space" sound and I kind of am really glad that's relegated to almost entirely just the Scandinavian disco/house scene.djtiesto said:I thought that was 2009-2010?

I kind of like where we are right now. Every genre of dance music right now has a very, very distinct sound and voice, while still taking Influences from everything else that's going on. It's become very homogenized, and I'm worried that everything is going to splinter off again soon.
