mc mark with the 80's Nu Wave. There's no modern techno/dance music I like to crank more than stuff by Prodigy, Crystal Method, or Chemical Brothers. There is one group I keep hearing sporadically on XM that I kind of like : Headrillaz. Can't remember the name of the cut, but damn I wanted to buy it whatever it was.
Oh yeah, and some stuff from the 90's that I still listen to and still kicks ass - Utah Saints, Fluke, Snap, Nitzer Ebb, Front242, A Split Second, KLF, Nine Inch Nails, etc.
Simarik - Tarkan. Kind of different. Try Instituto - Colecao Nacional - Brazilian beats. Girls love Shaggy. And now they love that other guy - the one with "Shake that Thing" -oh yeah - Sean Paul. Very different music there, but all have beats. Beats are what make people move - not twrrs and twitters and wheezes or aggro - sounding synths. Old skool disco - Sylvester. You Make me Feel remix. There's a remix of "I wanna make love" to you that uses the riff from Le freak that bumps. Any house music with Martha Wash or Michelle Weeks. Atb - till I come. Do your own remix - drop beats over "Love Rollercoaster". just find some thump thump thump and loop it and crossfade that with a snare/kick spin into Rollercoaster. Use your kill switches and a flanger to pick up that great guitar part and swoop into the beats again. Sample a kobe tai scream and drop it in there.
Okay, Sane, here is a song for you: "Michael Jackson" - Fatboy Slim Some others: "Block Rockin' Beats" - Chemical Brothers "Chico's Groove" - Chemical Brothers "Halcyon On + On +" - Orbital "Atom Bomb" - Fluke
Oh yes, and if you want to call it techno - the greatest dance song of all time : Shannon - Let the Music Play.
No suggestions, but this site might help. It's got 170 different genres of electronic music in a family tree format, along with over 1,000 samples thereof: http://digitallyimported.com/edmguide/edmguide.html
Sane, you should check out the Essential Mix website. If you don't know what the Essential Mix is its a live dj mix show every Saturday night in the UK. The top djs from all over the world have been spinning on this show for many years. It's probably the most respected dance mix show of its kind. Anyway, if you follow the link I provided it will take you to the E-mix homepage. Then if you click on the TRACKLISTINGS link on that page it will take you to an archive of all the dj's tracklistings from their shows for the past 3 years (Songs and Artists). The show covers pretty much every genre of dance music, so try and find a dj that spins your style and check out his (or her) tracklist. E-mix homepage I suggest starting from the latest shows first. You can listen to the latest one also, it's Dave Seaman (trance).

For trance the above songs are pretty good and will give u a good mix of styles. Another you may want to listen to is Gabriel & Dresden. They are making some absolutely nasty remixes right now. Some possible titles include "As the Rush Comes" and "Beautiful Things." Also for housier stuff you can check out great tracks from Robbie Rivera and Olav Basoski. Possibles . . . Olav Basoski - Windjammer Landing Olav Basoski - Down With It Robbie Rivera - First the Groove Bombdogs - First Time Depeche Mode - Strange Love (Kid Vicious Remix)
This is a GREAT song and anyone that likes this genre of music should check it out. I'm a big fan of anything Gabriel and Dresden do, and Andain is actual a side project of Josh Gabriel's. I'm not that big into trance anymore, but I have a couple friends that dj so I'm around it all the time.
Ah, another G&D fan. Rockets10 is right, as the rush comes is another great track. If you were searching for it, look for Motorcycle - As The Rush Comes.
