Good calls sir. I'd heard of the rest of them (don't worry!) but they weren't to my tastes.

Check out:

AUX 88
Arpanet
Underground Resistance
Heiko Laux
Octave One
DJ Rolando

and

http://www.discogs.com/release/397671 for some awesome chill.

Underground Resistance - I AM UR is such an awesome song. Their repertoire is a bit spotty though. Not that big of a fan of Mad Mike, to be honest. AUX 88 has some ok tunes, but it's pretty eh, I say. Not a fan of the MCing that goes on his sets either.

Edit:

I have to say that I'm someone who was inspired by electronic sounds and purely electronic sounds, devoid of organic sounds. The only organis music I enjoy anymore is classical music, the rest just remind me too much of gospel music or music that I just have a hard time enjoying.

Does anyone know where I could listen online to the whole 21 minutes ( not just a 30 second sample) of Harold Budd's "Gypsy Violin" from "Lovely Thunder" ( 1996) ? Not to download, just listen, in streaming. PS: I don't know how to do mp3's and haven't the faintest idea what Torrent is or how it works.

I first heard "Gypsy Violin" last year on "Ambiance for the Masses" radio, and fell in love with it, and used the rewind function for as long as possible on the stream, but it passed out of my life and now I am reminded of how much I loved it by the gorgeous Tobin track "Slowly" above. ( which I've played at least ten times now in the last couple of hours while looking all over the net for this Budd music Sad tired ).

The lists of titles look scrumptious but have to go to bed now it's almost 3 am here, after one last listen to "Slowly"! Wink Embarassed .... three last listens.... zzzz..... now i'm going, goodnight

I'm into dark electronica, electrogoth, industrial, synthpop, teeny tiny bit of trip hop...rarely pure electronica though.

Here are some of the more electronic-y artists I like (some only sort of count):

And One (I'm not crazy about them but "Military Fashion Show" kicks ass)
Android Lust
Angelspit
Apoptygma Berzerk
Aural Vampire (I'm only just getting into them though)
The Birthday Massacre
Blaqk Audio
Blue Foundation
Blutengel
Celldweller
Chiasm (mainly "Isolated")
Collide
Combichrist (I don't love all their stuff but there are about 5 songs by them I totally freaking love)
Covenant (just a little bit...I really love "Call the Ships to Port"!)
The Cruxshadows
Curve
Diary of Dreams
Die Form
Dr. Steel (okay, industrial/hip-hop/opera...but whatever! Look him up! He's awesome!)
E Nomine (yay!)
Emilie Autumn
The Gothsicles
Helium Vola
I Monster
I:Scintilla (though again, not consistantly..."Cursive Eve" is lovely though)
The Knife
L'Ame Immortelle
Lunascape
Massive Attack
NIN (though they don't really count...)
Orgy
Otto Dix
Rob Dougan
Royksopp (What else is there besides Royksopp's "What Else Is There"?)
She Wants Revenge
Skinny Puppy
Snakeskin
UNKLE
VNV Nation

As I said in another thread, I've worked with Zombie Girl - but don't like the band's style all that much - too burlesque for my taste.

I've been working my way through Xelebe's and Belfast's lists but the funny thing is that the ones on Xelebe's list are ( almost all ) too pure/hard machine/electro for my taste and most of those, in the first two sections anyway, on Belfast's list are too full of voices which often do my head in. ( Does that also apply to the long third list of bands/tracks aswell, or are there more pure instrumentals in those?)

Feel a bit like Goldilocks trying out the three chairs etc. I shall try Veresae's list next. Very Happy

One I like, from Peekay's recommendeds, is "Knights of the Jaguar" by DJ Rolando:





Also want to say that what I have been able to find/listen to from the Amon Tobin album "Out from Out Where" is great. Thanks, Hector. Very Happy

I wish I could hear more of Michael Brook's recent album "Rock Paper Scissors" online; what I've managed to listen to so far sounds pretty gorgeous.

I also think Boards of Canada are pretty dreamy. And I quite liked this; "La Fete Triste" by Trisomie 21:





mmmmmmmmmm ! Very Happy I like electronic music which is on the cusp between organic and non-organic, where the "natural" noise has almost become abstract, but not quite.

Really? Still, that's awesome. What did you do with them?

I'm not SUPER into them--I agree about the burlesqueness--but if I hear a song by them play on the dance floor it's fun to dance to. ^_^

I don't know-can't really listen to music online since my connection is dial-up (which is why I never see/hear the YouTube videos people put up everywhere-sorry). Recognize artist's name, heard few things by him on radio around 1990 (and taped on cassettes) & liked a few pieces.
"Memory Gongs" with the Cocteau Twins. "The Child with the Lion". "Eyes are Mosaics".

Went through & deleted ones I'm certain have lotsa' vocals. The bottom-most (longest) list is one in which I'm more sure the songs lack singing. There's bit of diffuse atmospheric singing on the three songs (in top/short list)-dunno' your reaction to them.

I'm sorry. Does it help if put the actual URL/http address? Or is it a question of cost for connection etc? I don't know exactly what difference dial-up makes.

Thank you very much for doing that. I was feeling a bit discouraged after only finding three I liked in the first couple of dozen, and it ( the "not liking") being because of the voices. So thanks heaps for clarifying. I will do some more listening! Very Happy

Ref: Trisomie 21, Brooks, and Alzir; I couldn't find any of the specific tracks you listed so I don't know.
I did like a couple of pieces that I found by both Brooks and Trisomie as I posted above, but several tracks by Trisomie unfortunately reminded me a bit too much of The Cure whose music I have loved, and seemed like a pale reflection/rip off/derivative.
