is there an electronica recommendation thread here?

i need some raw furious pumpin' and cookin' electronica

have got a lot of Autechre, Boards of Canada, Squarepusher, Fujiya & Miyagi and Hot Chip

anything else I should check out?

pretty sure there's an electronica board lol

Gescom is related to Autechre but a little more dance-y if that makes sense

I recommend that any and everyone take a listen to "Dressed Sharply" by An Horse. This song has been stuck in my head for a week.

young the giant they are awesome!

The Vaccines
 

The Growlers
 

I have been unable to find any results when I searched for the band The Growlers

And they are my top favorite. Along with Man Man, and Dr. Dog

These are fairly simple words to search but I was unable to find results. Maybe people can give me suggestions on more bands that are like this? I'm at a loss, it's far too hard to sift thru the bull**** music out there and find something that's actually good and gets me going.

My friends have a band (newly started) that I think you and everyone else will appreciate. They are called Chernobiel play indie rock, 3 songs are available at soundcloud.

First EP for free here http://kidnorth.bandcamp.com/

The Walkmen - The Rat + lyrics - YouTube

Some music between The Distance and There's Nothing to Admit
 

I want to listen to music that's somewhere between the songs, There's Nothing To Admit by The Mark Within and The Distance by Cake.
So what are the qualities that these songs share and where else can I find them?

This isn't a recommendation! And I'm not going to get answers to my questions here. So thanks a lot.

This isn't a recommendation! I'm looking for some feedback here, not to be shuffled somewhere where I'm not going to learn anything about what I'm specifically looking for. I don't want just any indie music, I'm trying to find something more specific then that.

Frànçois & The Atlas Mountains

BRNS is a fantastic Belgian band.

Go on then, I'll share some of my fvourite artists at the moment.

Hello there.:)
Would anybody suggest me some good albums with female vocalists?
I recently discover Florence and the Machine and Lana del rey (I know I am late, but better late than never) and liked them very much.
I am not even sure that these ladies are indie or alternative because they record on major labels and their music is very enjoable and mellow, but I hope you understand the kind of songwriting and voices I like
Thanks in advance :beer:

Not sure this if you would like this or not but Feist has got some pretty solid tunes. A lot of people have heard of her more popular music but dont realize that she has got some really good songs slipping by behind the scenes.

Thank you !
 

Excellent suggestion, man.
I have just listened to an entire album called METALS and I find that is really good: great voice, great songwriting.
I appreciate it :yeah:
Now I will try with Yeah Yeah Yeah ....

Lykke Li is a favorite of mine. Not quite the same as the above mentioned, but i really enjoy her stuff. I recently saw her on ACL with Florence and the Machine.

Regina Spektor maybe. Ellie Goulding seems to be making a big splash but I haven't really listened to her.

Phantogram, I know not on the same page as the above at all, but if you haven't checked them out they are worth a listen. two of my fav's: "Mouthful of Diamonds" and "When I'm small."

For good female singer/songwriters you can't go wrong with Sharon Van Etten. Her last two albums Epic and Tramp are well worth a listen.

Thanks a lot
 

to all of you that are givin me precious suggestions for female musicians/singers.:clap:
I am savin on a list all the names and I really wanna listen carefully to all of them little by little.
Please keep on suggest, I have time and passion :)

I like Lana Del Rey, too. Saw her adverts on music mags and listened to Born to Die and like it.
Do you think she's authentic, sincere or just a market artificial creation?

I don't know much about Lana Del ray, but from what I have heard I like.

As for her being authentic, it looks like she has paid her dues, so to speak, in the club scene. So that's something, for me. other than that I couldn't say.

Another band you should check out, Best Coast. To me they are what California sounds like. The lyrics and music are well, sloppy, but it works.

The album Crazy for You is the best. I haven't really listened to much off the new one, The Only Place. Frankly, I just can't get into it. But add them to the list;)

Thanks, band and album are on my list now :wave:;)

On the list too ....:finger:

Best Coast are definitely worth checking out to the poster above. I've seen them live before too and I was impressed.

With this being a predominantly US-based forum, do people know much about The Head & The Heart? Stumbled across them a couple of weeks back but based on their Youtube videos, they're relatively well known already. Thoughts?

I really like -
The Head and the Heart "Down In The Valley" - AllSaints Basement Sessions - YouTube and also found another video on the same session below


The Head and the Heart "Ghosts" - AllSaints Basement Sessions - YouTube

Are they popular/getting recognition?

I saw Best Coast this past summer, they were pretty awesome.

The Head and the Heart are from the pacific northwest and have the folk thing going on. "Ghosts" is the only song I really like, and that's due to the piano. Other than that, my knowledge of them is nil. But I have heard of them, so that's something.

I love pretty much every indie/pop band that comes out of the UK:)

Check out these guys, they are from the same area as The Head and The Heart, and I am really into them. I've seen them live twice; if you ever have the chance, go see them.

This is off Blind Pilot's new album:

Does anyone have any suggestions for bands similar to what The Shins were from about 2000-2007 and particularly their very early stuff, only just got round to listening to Port of Morrow and I have to say, I'm really disappointed with it. Also anything similar to Mercury Rev would be appreciated :thumb:

Fleet foxes self entitled album is a great album if you like folk indie. And for upbeat indie there is this new band ultraista who uses radiohead's producer Nigel Godrich.

Cheers for that, I'll check them both out ;)

Have you listened to Broken Bells? Mercers side project with Danger Mouse? Very shinsish.

Early Mercury Rev with David Baker (yerself is steam, boces)? Or afterwards because to me they sound very different after he left.

^^ Broken Bells is good.

Arcade Fire
love this one

Spotify recommends several for The Shins
