Electronic Music Thread
I see that there are threads dedicated to metal and rap music, so I thought I would start an Electronic music thread. Some of my favourite artists:
- Aphex Twin
- Autechre
- Boards of Canada
- The Chemical Brothers
- Daft Punk
- Fatboy Slim
- Solar Fields
- The Prodigy
- Orbital
- The Orb
- The Art of Noise
- Moby
- Brian Eno
- Kraftwerk
...to name just a few.
So what are your favourites? What do you think about Electronic music? When would you say it became popular? Do you like it/hate it/don't care? How would you define it?

You should change the title of the thread to "Electronic music thread"
Done.
I love The Glitch Mob. I love this song in particular, but the whole album is orgasm in disc form.

I haven't had a chance to get their second album, because I want to pay for a physical copy and I've been too lazy so far, but it looks awesome too...

And no I don't do ecstacy. Go figure.
I also love dance and industrial, which are both sort of electronic mix genres (pop and metal, respectively)
I've never been into a lot of synth music or the electronic style aesthetic, the only thing I can think of is industrial rock / metal bands like Ministry or maybe something like Voltera.

Sounds good. I must admit, I havent heard of the Glitch Mob before.
Yeah its not everyone's style of music. Some of it is an acquired taste, thats for sure.
