[Music] Is Electronica finally mainstream in the U.S.?

Here's Benny Benassi at Ultra this year, I saw this show live. Ultra 2010 was one of the best experiences of my life.

That guy isn't even really spinning/mixing in the video. He just recorded a video of himself dancing to some mix... who knows if he actually put it together

I guess the Black Eyed Peas agree with post #12.

Just heard this song today:

I can't stand them but this is a great rip of an Ed Banger groove. Definitely the direction music needs to be heading in.

BTW Rocketspimp, enjoyed the coachella clip.

 

I was at Coachella this year but didn't check out the Deadmau5 set because I'm just not really a fan of his music. I did hear from someone though that said production value wise it was one of the more impressive electronic sets at Coachella since Daft Punk debuted the pyramid there back in 2006.

The best electronic set I saw there was Proxy, and I recommend all of you guys check him out if you've never heard any of his stuff. He's from mother Russia and he puts on a hell of a show.

What you posted is complete crap. House is pretty versatile but that isn't it.

Here's a typical Miami house scene track, very retro, soulful and fast.

This track just hit the european airwaves in the past 2 months. Great song.

Retro-feel. House music FTW. (Beat gets rocking at :46)

FYI beatport is a great website to find out what's hot, and if you guys have satellite radio BPM is an awesome channel to listen to and jam.

Ten hour drum & bass marathon on BBC Radio going on right now, in case anyone gives a ****.

 

Nice, I have the same Boys Noize shirt as that tool Steve Aoki.

 

Can't believe this band hasn't been mentioned. RATATAT anyone???
