Ambient is one of my favorite forms of music. I enjoy most acts on the Cold Meat Industry label; my favorites being:
Atrium Carceri Raison D'etre Sophia The Protagonist etc. etc. Also, Cyclic Law is a good one. Kammarheit, Lustmord, etc. For more dancey electronic, the aforementioned The Knife is probably my favorite. I also enjoy Justice, Daft Punk and Zeigeist. Then there is IDM (Boards of Canada), Psytrance/Goa (Shpongle, Ott, Younger Brother), Breakcore (venetian snares, Xanopticon) and all sorts of other stuff. Huge genre. Many varieties. Definitely some of my favorite music. |

The Orb should be on this site, no question about it. ...and not because of that recent collab with David Gilmour.

RATATAT! Amazing duo from New York. They are electronica rock. Listen to any song by them and you will not be disappointed, but the best song is Loud Pipes off their album Classics.

Hi can anyone help me identify this piece of Krautrock electronic music from the 1970s. I heard it in my childhood on the television during some scientific documentary, either on BBC or ITV. The music reminded me of Edgar Frose, Klaus Shulze in the Virgin Tangerine Dream era. It might be even Cluster, Eno or Vangelis but not the guitar dominated stuff more just synths. I have been unable to locate this since so had to hum into a crappy Skype microphone and up it on Youtube to see if anyone could recognise it.

f**k Buttons is one of my current faves, and have been for quite some time.
I just posted a vid from them in the Krautrock thread, but damn I just can´t help myself |

There's electronic music with a beat and then there's Electro-Acoustic.

I was at the Forbidden Fruit festival in Dublin this year and caught the Aphex Twin concert, now I know some of you will think hes too techno for the Prog Archives forum, but I class him quite near the Edgar Frose, Klaus Shulze Brain Eno thing, especially with Selected Ambient Works Volume 2. On this clip he mixes in Autechres best known ambient track VLetrmx21 and Irish electronic artists Lakker very nicely, the track quite reminiscent to his Selected Ambient Works Vol 1: 1985 - 92. Just one thing could someone tell why when you up a video to Youtube that the length of time is increased by 20 times. This is basically a 3 minute 58 second audio but the actual length on the Youtube video is 1 hour and 4 minutes?? WTF? Have been querying this on Google which is completely useless at giving me info about video coding or time length. Anyway enjoy.

I like Aphex Twin but I'd not heard this before. I like his new remix too. |

Really enjoy electronics in an Avant-Garde string quartet piece written by a 20th century composer. Mort Garson, Beaver & Krause, Ruth White, and Wendy Carlos were my favorite's as a child. The Berlin electronic scene in the early 70's was quite interesting to me.

Genres are just names. Music we like is just that.
Artist mentioned here in this thread I like: Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze, Orb, The Knife (Silent Shout is great!), Cliff Martinez, Flying Lotus, Biosphere, Vangelis, Tangerine Dream, Jean-Michele Jarre, and Brian Eno. I just discovered Neon Indian today, that was mentioned here. They have a fun/trippy video on YouTube: Neon Indian - Step Into the World With Your PAL198X Electronic stuff I didn't see here that I like: Paniq, NetSlov, Leftfield, OMFO, Coil, Daevid Allen, Amon Düül 2, Alien Sex Fiend, ISHQ, Elve, Edgar Froese, Shaolin Wooden Men, The Tsinandali Choir, Steve Hillage, 808 State, Ash Ra Tempel, Deuter, Ozric Tentacles, Telepopmusik, Robert Fripp, Emerald Web, Tom Slake, The Egg, Paul Oakenfold, Steve Roach, Twilight Circus. As you may know, much electronic music came out of Prog groups such as Gong and King Crimson. Even early Kraftwerk had roots in Prog with the group Organisation. And Alan Parsons (known for rock) made some great electronic music back in the day. And then you have artists like Bill Laswell, This Mortal Coil, and Dead Can Dance, Shantel, Rockin Teenage Combo, Zofka, Sigur Rós, that often blur the lines for me. And I like that! As for what Progressive is and the like, study Wikipedia. If you don't like what you see there, change it. As it is, I would say there is clear Progressive music from each decade. Then there are new groups that copy those style that are not so progressive. Today it seems that if you play true progressive music, no one will know it's that, not until many years have passed, as fans need time to struggle in labling it. Personally, I call all this type of music I like 'Progressive & Electronic' and 'Universal Lounge'. One thing in common about it is I like it, and that's that. |

I like some electronic artists. I am not the electronic music expert, because this scene is so big. There are a few gems like Endtroducing from DJ Shadow. This album is the most important in the instrumental hip-hop or trip-hop music.

When mentioning plunderphonics, one has to always include The Avalanches' Since I Left You.

Avalanches and DJ Shadow have both never reached my ears, sadly, although I've meant them to for some time.
I discovered this guy a couple days ago. |

I found recently a band/project called Tycho. They have a new album Awake and it is good. On Youtube is very nice live performance. It is something between electronic music and post-rock, so check it out.
