My friend Jenny was asking about electronic music, i'm no expert but i happen to listen to a lot of electronic music so i offered to make a mix for her - i'm also sharing it with you...
if you'd like me to put together a mix on a theme or with a particular kind of music drop me a line, i'll see what i can do - bare in mind that i am limited, because of data storage and uploading capabilities to between a half hour and an hour or so...
Don't Call Me Baby [12" Mix] - Madison AvenueRetina - Ellen Allien & Apparat
Jet - Ellen Allien & Apparat
Barbarella (Deep Dish Armageddon Breakdown Remix) - Sasha & John Digweed
Space Rays - Martin O
Knuddelmaus - Ulrich Schnauss
Still Smiling (Fortran 5 Remix) - I Start Counting
Small Memory (Tunng Remix) - Jon Hopkins
Mookid - Aphex Twin
this is very much a shotgun blast from my electronic music collection - i went for stuff that i like - that is, in my mind, essential... meaning it captures some of the essence of what electronic music is about... by no means should you consider this representative of the wide label that is ”electronic music” or anything like that, nor is it histrorically or chronologically put together, I simply made a mix of stuff I like.
i am no expert as far as labels, titles, artists, styles of electronic music go - i like what i like ...
i am consistently attracted to music that has a groove an elemental beat a dynamic, is melodic and sometimes something that is challenging in some way for my brain...
i don't know if these tunes qualify as house music orchill out, downtempo, techno, dance, breakbeat or what...i just know they have a groove and i enjoy them...
i hope you do too...
