On the whole, I opt for ambient electronic soundscapes, so lyrics are a definite-no. But I make a specific exception for Underworld Mk1-3 and all of Karl's other projects. His stream-of-consciousness lyricism is artful and a refreshing departure from the usual lyrical drivel.
I have some friends that have to have different types of electronica (like drum and bass) with vocals and others who prefer no vocals at all. I personally like either. Does anyone else have a preference?
Definitely with female vocals and sometimes male vocals too! It spices the track really up and makes a party hit in festivals or in clubs. For example the soundtrack: When will the bass drop to hype the track up to the last second of the loud hard deep drop of the bass.
Here is a better example why dubstep is hardcore&smooth at the same time:
check my youtube channel since i have vocal dubstep soundtrack that blows your mind up since it wont let me alone in my mind

I think it would be fine either way, as there's enough variation in the beat to make it listenable without vocals in this particular case.

I don't necessarily have a problem with it if the song is really good, but I'm often left wondering:
(a) Were there production limitations?
(b) Did they not have a chance to record more material with the vocalist, thinking that the first recordings would be sufficient? Yet, when they went to put everything together, maybe it would only work a certain way from what they originally intended.
(c) Are they just being lazy by being so bloody repetitive?
