- Joey Beltram

- CJ Bolland (old, not his new crap)
- Josh Wink
- Dave Clarke
- (old) Tiesto, c1995
- Future Sound Of Melbourne

I'm a big fan of Telefon Tel Aviv. It's very chill, beautiful, and interesting.

I also really like Modeselektor.
 
I'm a huge fan of Infected Mushroom and Shpongle, and listen to Paul van Dyk and VNV Nation to a lesser extent. I consider VNV Nation the best of those, but they're a little dark for me to want to listen to regularly.

There's probably a ton of other electronic artists out there that I'd love, but I haven't explored the genre for shit yet.

A psytrance track I did with a friend of mine got released :cool:

I'll definitely check this out at some point, but I'm presently enthralled in my first listen of Dead or Alive's Youthquake. o_O
 
I'm a big fan of various house related genres - hardstyle, hardcore, happy hardcore, jumpstyle etc.

Don't get me started on Electronica, it's a very broad term. Let's just say I like IDM and ambient related Electronica artists
 
I've really been into "Rabbit in the Moon", "Fat Boy Slim", "Josh Wink" & other trance artists lately. It's really been a genre that I've been getting back into a lot lately...

Also, not quite 100% sure how to categorize this album, but "Karma" by Delerium has been my favorite album for the past month. I haven't been able to stop listening to it. They're the original guys who did that song "Silence" which features Sarah McLaughlin on vocals. That's such an amazing song. It gives me goosbumps every time I hear it. To all the fools who tried to remix/cover that song = EPIC FAIL
 
I really like ambient/chill-out electronic music. Also less lyrics = me probably enjoying it more.

some of my favorites:
Aphex Twin
Crystal Castles
Four Tet
Groove Armada
LCD Soundsystem
Lloop
Loscil
Massive Attack
Metronomy
Porn Sword Tobacco
Sneaky Sound System
Tycho
Yelle
 
Nice trippy sound. Seems to be lacking in melody, whether that was intentional or not. It's cool that your track was selected as the opener for the album.

Cheers man. Yeah the lack of melody is intentional. I much prefer interesting sounds & rhythms over strong melody in psytrance.
