Daftpunk and Techno/Electronica suggestions.

[schoolsucks]

Bought a Daftpunk CD last night, Discovery. Its preety good. Tracks which stand out are Aerodynamics and Nightvision. Any comments or more songs?

Got any suggestions for good Techno music?

 

[Buddhist]

I really enjoy techno and electronica etc, but daftpunk albums really suck.
I like one song of theirs that makes it and then you make the mistake of buying the album and realize the rest of it just isn't appealing...(well for myself atleast...)

You find you liked the rest of the album?

Well its good listening while sitting in Lab and doing nothing.

 

[Buddhist]

I found it really annoying listening while doing nothing...hehe
but to each his own i suppose.

I like BT for long non-stop listening personally.

BT? Who is that?

Got any recommendations for Techno and stuff. I like that kind of Music also, but Rave (I think that is what it is called) is boring. I like music like Madison Avenue. Anymore suggestions?

 

[b0red]

BT!!! Revolution will be televised!!!

Discovery album isn't bad. I like digital love, track 2? hohum~

 

[fake]

Madison Avenue? You like the euro-pop side of electronica then .. can't say I could recommend anything cause I listen to that boring "rave" stuff lol

 

[Buddhist]

if you like madison avenue then you should like clubby tunes like

mojo's -lady
phats and small's (I think thats who sings it)- got to turn around
uhmm Gigi D'agnostino's - I'll fly with you

and stuff like that probably.

BT is trance...best out there and a great guy.

"Madison Avenue? You like the euro-pop side of electronica then .. can't say I could recommend anything cause I listen to that boring "rave" stuff lol"

ya, BT produced it. Justin wrote the lyrics.
BT also scored the movie "Driven" and "Fast and the Furious".
BT's new song is "Revolution" aka "Revolution will be televised" on Tomb Raider Soundtrack.
New album coming out in 2002.
Currently on vacation in Thailand.

 

[Buddhist]

he's hit commercialized mainstream after doing "Go"


man "IMA" was way ahead of its time as was "ESCM."
I met him online and befriended him right after he released IMA and continued conversing and meeting him at concerts etc until after escm but haven't been following up too well since movement came out in europe.

NOOOOOO.

If you want to hear something different, listen to a song by Photek (Ni Ten Ichi Ryu is good). Now THAT is electronica.

[KrispyKremer]

I like rock, anyone have any suggestions for good rock music?

schoolsucks, there's so much variety out there, and even techno has branched into so many different genres from a decade ago...

What do you like most? The beats? The synthlines? The buildups? The trippy sounds?

I got stuff going back more than 10 years that's considered techno, but then there's stuff from the past year that's a totally different sound but still called techno.

BT and Paul van Dyk are good house/trance, then you could go back to classics like Joey Beltram's &quot;Energy Flash&quot; or Josh Wink's &quot;Higher State of Consciousness&quot;.

Check out TranceAddict for some free audio and video downloads.

WOW!! I take off Elephant riding in Thailand and I missed alot of action. Is it just me or are elephants the most beautiful majestic creatures on the planet? Little scary being on ones back overlooking a cliff when it trumpets though, hahahahaaa. So I am over in Chang Mei at the moment trying to recover from scoring 2 films (The Fast and Furious and Driven), track for Tomb Raider, Sarah Mc Laugllin remix (of Hold On), prepping for the new Ben Stiller film Zoolander and aaaaah yes that little NSYNC track (this is all since Jan 19 btw...109 finished pieces of music, lol...my aching fricking mouse finger!!! hahahahaa). So anyways there seems to be alot more controversy on this NSYNC thing than I expected. Here's the deal, I got a phone call from my manager (Richard Bishop) in October when I was playing the house of blues with my band in FL. He said the NSYNC guys were big fans and wanted to come watch the show. I was not at the time a NSYNC fan but have come to learn that these guys are bad ass at what they do. I am certainly not a fan of the modern Boy Bands (the only one I ever really dug is New Edition). So I told Richard cool give em passes to the show and I'll say hi or whatever, my little sister however nearly had a heart attack, lol. So afterwards, J.C. and two of their producers came backstage to have a chat. First thing out of their producers mouths was &quot;We are producing the new Michael Jackson record and are obsessively a/b ing our mixes to Movement in Still Life and we think you make the most amazing...blah. blah, blah. I was like wow, that is some cool stuff to tell my mom! Anyways, the point is, I was very impressed with these guys knowledge and interest in for example my editing techniques, grain synthesis, Kyma, Protools, beta plugins etc. Really smart guys. And not only smart but very humble and cool (and as I came to find out later, absolutely KICK ASS singers).So we ended up hanging out a couple more times and we started to become friendly. Since that first night, they asked me to produce some stuff for their album, and at first I didn't think it was the right thing to do. I thought, hey their cool guys, but what they do is very comercial and what I do is much more on the experimental side. After hanging out with them quite a bit, they said something that changed my mind. They said they wanted to do a track like Hip Hop Phenomena. I was like shut up are you serious?? They were like yes, for real. Justin wrote this really simple and catchy (Remember The Time style tune) and I got busy making a spastic fractal edit breakbeat track to go around it.They were cool with me doing anything to their vocals (the edits on this track are sooooo not radio!!!!!It is insane that it is the first single). Aynways on the basis of that I said yes. I wrote 17 pages of code in Kyma, to treat their vocals. The beats and edits are killer, I am really proud of them. All in all it was a fantastic experience. These guys are amazing, amazing vocalists. Justin and JC would sing one line 100 times so perfectly that it was impossible to tell the diference. I could mention alot of singers than could not hope to do the same that do what is considered to be much more &quot;credible&quot; music. I was and still am beyond impressed with them. I should also mention, I learned more on this on track than on any other single project I have ever worked on. They way they record vocals, mic-ing techniques, vocal comping tricks etc are so bad ass I will use them on everything I do from this day forward. So just wanted to write you guys a note and let you know I am really proud of this track and hope you guys dig it too. If pop songs aren't your thing....check out The Fast and Furious score I did (comes out this summer). Wrote for a 70 piece orchestra and car part Gamelan. We draged to fricking car chasis into the studio and I had to friends who are orchestral percussionists play tribal rythyms on car parts!!! Or the Tomb Raider track &quot;The Revolution Will Be Televised&quot; vocals by me and Rascoe (sinister breaks madness with a cool message about the Quickening....carlos Casteneda anyone?), or the Sarah M mix (deep tribal-progressive teck thang). I guess I just wanted to say diversity is the spice of life, it defies my character and sensibilities as a human being and musician to do one thing all the time. If I had to only listen to progressive house every day, I'd shoot myself, lol. Don't get me wrong I love it, I've just been doing it since before there was a name for it, hahahahah (like 88, 89). I love music more than anything and changing it up, always keeps me feeling refreshed and connected. Anyways, love you all to bits. I am off to ride elephants more with the karen hillside tribe in the Thai jungle and sleep on bamboo (that stuff makes a futon seem comfortable, hahahaha). Peace, love and and great respect>>>> B T
