Top 19 favorite non ellectronic artists

The "top 19 non-dance" message seemed to have been written
with this in mind. So I figure we might as well start over
the same topic. No ellectronics (and that does include NIN
and radiohead (since nin is mostly ellectronic stuff, and
the last two radiohead studio-albums were writen in acid).

What are your top 19 favorite non-ellectronic artists?

Can't think of any? Well neither can I. EVERYBODY uses
ellectronics, and the rest are suckers.

Hah!

Nirvana's Nevermind features sampled drumloops, FX and
electric guitars, are they allowed?

This is hard, most of the music I love now is at least
partly electronic...

No electronics. Of course that doesn't include recording
equipment.

But radiohead, pink floyd, U2, genesis and david bowie
cannot be counted. They use synthesizers, and or have a
heavy dsp ellement in their music. And Nirvana can't be
counted. I used to be a fan of theirs, so they have to be
ellectronic. As well, I will not be accepting any
submissions by system of a down, cause that name emotionaly
erks me.

u are crazy. Pink Floyd, U2, David Bowie (dunno who genesis
are) are not considered "electronic" acts. "alternative" is
maybe the right word (although i have no idea exactly what
alternative means). and why can't NIRVANA be counted???

because the last two studio albums by radiohead were writen
in sonic foundry acid. Its kind of a sequencing and
mastering program.

Non ellectronic acts, as I have clearly stipulated, are
artists that do not use electronics to make their music.
Genesis. Pink floyd, U2, and david bowie all rely highly
upon their synthesizers to write their music. Therefore they
do not apply towards the non-electronic category. Doesn't
mean they are electronic artists.

nirvana is to be considered an electronic artist because I
used to be a huge fan. And I only like electronic music.
Therefore they must be an electronic band.

hmm...pretty much all the artists i like use electronics to
some degree...
even the jazz and classical artists
i guess i really like when artists mix electronics with
non-electronics ...like radiohead, bjork, tortoise, sigur
ros, portishead, four tet, aphex, squarepuhser, amon tobin,
etc...
