Can anyone recommend any other electronic music for me to listen to - so that I can see whether or not I like it? (Having already posted that I'm not really into Aphex Twin...)
.....for I fear I'll have to leave this place as a Jedi Outcast!

I was leant some Aphex Twin stuff (read the topic SOMETHING SHOCKING)....and introduced to this messageboard at the same time, but wasn't that impressed. I only liked a few of the tracks on SAW1 and SAW2, and maybe one or two of the BOC tracks - what would you suggest..?? I found that a lot of the Aphex stuff is repetative...
I just thought it would cool to actually talk to people here about music....but I'm afraid it something that we don't have in common at the moment.

Uhm. have you heard all AFX? A lot of it isnt repetative. I dunno.... check out these groups for electronix.
Nothing too extreme here..::
1. Juno Reactor 2. Uziq 3. Cylob 4. Autechre
There are so many more i could suggest but you may not like them... if you want bigger beats
try Chemical Brothers, Dust Brothers, Juno Reactor, Junkie XL, Anti-Loop...

This is all Aphex
Someone else wanna put something forward? Man, it's like all genres of music, you need a starting point for yourself. Rarely does something someone recommended for you turn out to be truly satisfiying - you need to discover it for yourself! Just take the main electronic artists - Aphex, BoC, Ae, Squarepusher, Plaid etc... and download some shit... and see what you like! Aphex is good as a whole, d/l loadsa stuff... BoC is nice mellow, vibe music... etc

I'm sorry if you all think I'm stupid...but I got introduced to this message board and just got hooked with the insightfull discussions that we have here....but I am relatively new to this kinda music and would 'like to like some of it' - that sounds silly doesnt it? I just want to be more of a part of this place.....

Listening to a few more...I like Heliospan too
The thing I find is that when I've sat down with of these cds and start listening, all of a sudden you get one track out of the blue that sounds absolutely shitty....and I think where the hell does that fit in....
Maybe I'm better off just gathering the tracks I like and burn them onto one cd

Get On and its remixes. Suggestions.... CiM Plaid-Download New Family; it's awesome. Also, there P-Brane EP is very very good.
Plod Arovane FCS North-basically live drum 'n' bass Spacetime Continuum Two Lone Swordsmen Sensorama-Echtzeit is a good song fsol amorphous androgynous Surface 10-Concentrations<---song Jega-His album Spectrum is a must have Max Tundra Photek-Modus Operandi Tusken Raiders-(mu-ziq side project)
And if for some very odd reason you haven't gotten anything by Orbital your very depririved. You need to get some pronto!
Hope those suggestions help out a bit.

i notice when i first hear a track and don't like it sometimes with repeated listenings it grows on me, becomes a favorite, it's strange. that happened with Autechre's Cfern off Confield but i wouldn't recommend if u like mellower sounds, earlier Autechre is mellower.

Personally, get the new cornelius album. After that, you'll know if you like all this electronic malarky or not.
Plus its tres good man.
Or do what i do, go into a record shop with £50 and buy an album by the main artists talked about on this board, BoC, aphex, squarepusher and autechre. If you hate them, hey, its only money.

Seriously though, I'm trying different tracks now and putting them into a seperate folder of 'favourites'. I think my disliking of certain tracks has given me a rather negative attitude to not listening to them again....a sort of 'thats crap - not gonna listen to that again' attitude, and that's wrong....
Here's a small list of the ones I actually like: Actium Heliospan Ptolemy Delphium Avril 14th Kesson Daslef Nanou 2

Say, JediChris--how about something like Depeche Mode, or Nine Inch Nails? Maybe Tori Amos' "From the Choirgirl Hotel" might float your boat.
GOod luck, Chris.

Can I thank you guys anyway for your help in pushing me in the right direction....I'm gonna continue going through my BoC and Aphex tracks and re-listen to them, sorting out the ones I like to the ones I dislike, and I'll take it from there....
What I think I'll do is publish a list of all the ones I hate maybe ;) That should cause some controversy eh??
I'd miss the conversations on this messageboard if I stopped coming here!

Jedi, if you like alberto balsalm try these Aphex tracks.
bbydhyonchord [drukqs cd1] orban eq trx 4 [drukqs cd1] windowlicker [windowlicker] nannou [windowlicker] iz-us [come to daddy] flim ? [come to daddy] girl/boy song [richard d james album] to cure a weakling child [richard d james album] pancake lizard [donkey rhubarb ep] mookid [i care because you do] wet tip hen ax [i care because you do] on [on]
mmmhhh... should do the trick (in most cases) ?
you'll find that after a while - ie trying some Hangable AutoBulb Tracks - you can ease yourself into the drill ? maybe ..
what do you usually listen to ?
