Techno/Electronica

[RancidInsanity]

Yep. This topic is about the entire genre, please discuss, post links, or whatever. I either want to become a professional author, or a famous and professional Disc Jockey. Techno is the home of DJs, remixes, and to me, just good music in general.

So yeah there you go. If anyone is interested in Techno and/or DJing and mixing please feel free to give me some tips! I have the FL Studio demo on my computer, and I really don't know how to use it lol.

I love electronica--mostly trance, progressive trance/house; some tribal, techno, chill out/ambient, d&b. But I listen to all Christian artists and I've found some very good ones over the last few years, including Topher Jones, Kenneth Thomas, Gerwin Koudijs (aka Tresice), Major Pax, Joel Armstrong, and Digital Aura (check them on iTunes), to name just a few. Most Christians only seem to know of Andy Hunter. He's good but I find his songs fairly repetitive.

My favorite which I do have on my iPod is RATATAT, the 17 Years CD, I can't get enough of that CD. Those 2 cats are some of the best at what they do.

Man, everybody thinks to be a DJ's cool. They really don't know about the DJ's life.

Also, here's an awesome techno song called The Ride:

I'll have to concur with The Prodigy, although as a Christian, I know their lyrics are objectionable. Their beats are right on the money, though. I always enjoyed "Breathe," "Hotride," and "Voodoo People's" beats.

Paul Oakenfold is good, although I think he remixes his own songs way too much into too many different versions.

I actually enjoyed Eiffel 65 back in the day, and still listen to them for nostalgia's sake.
