psytimeofmylife Posted December 5, 2010 Posted December 5, 2010 I've started to really like that sound, but I'm kinda lost. Which songs/compilations would you suggest? Preferably without a lot of singing. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SMfRXUXRuH0 Quote
psytimeofmylife Posted December 7, 2010 Author Posted December 7, 2010 Nobody listens to oldschool electro? really? noone? Quote
ouroboros Posted December 8, 2010 Posted December 8, 2010 ummm....kraftwerk? they are the uber lords of 70's and 80's electro after all. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l34dtUzeEgs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-6221XuMGFk Quote
needle ninja Posted December 8, 2010 Posted December 8, 2010 I'm a huge 80's electro fan, but I think that most of it was just released on vinyl as singles... Only a few compilations I know of : MANTRONIX THE BEST OF 1985-1999 + some of the Perfect Beats compilations had some electro. I try to make it, but it doesn't sound like the old, vocoder box stuff... Quote

psytimeofmylife Posted December 13, 2010 Author Posted December 13, 2010 Thank you very much. I didn't know there were mainly singles, I'll try to find some of them. And also thanks for the suggestions! Quote
Otto Matta Posted December 15, 2010 Posted December 15, 2010 You absolutely have to check out Art of Noise if you haven't already. Maybe also Yello. Not quite the same thing, but '80s electronic goodness. Kraftwerk was earlier. Quote

Newbeat is eurodance with computers. Electro is hiphop with computers. I believe it started in New York City in the early 80's. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pv4Wkkzxklw - this is THE CLASSIC Quote
