a push in the right direction (electronic, ambient, dance, drum)

Vineyard Rose · 08-02-2007, 05:09 AM

Hello!

I'm not a huge fan of electronica, but I have heard songs with very catchy melodies and awesome ambient sounds...which makes me want to explore the genre a bit.

The type of elements I'm looking for are that of strong melody, and interesting sounds that create a sort of 'spacey' atmosphere (I'm a huge Pink Floyd fan). I'm looking for a new sound that takes you on a mental journey.

Things I'd like to avoid, however, are the typical repetitive dance club songs...like an 8 minute drum beat that never changes...*boom-ch-boom-ch-boom-ch-boom-ch* Also, nothing hip-hop flavored.

Does anybody have some suggestions? Thanks in advance!
