Good house/techno/electronica music?

[white_hype]

I am starting to get REALLY into electronica/techno...

I used to really hate it, but I realised that is just b/c I was exposed to really ****ty techno/electronica music. Currently I go to very trendy bar/clubs (the chicks here are INSANE... last night I saw like 5 girls that could have been in playboy, and I was sober) and the ONLY music they play is techno/electric stuff... they have some really awesome stuff. I heard this michael jackson - thriller remix that was so ****ing badass. The DJs they get here are badass and just about every song they play it makes everyone want to dance.

Before you list any recommendations please make sure I would like them. I like techno/electriconica with vocals (not always necessary but 95% of the time I prefer vocals) and songs that make you want to party/get crazy/get in a good move/dance/have a good time. I do not want some tranced out psychadellic ****.

Songs I like (I have very little knowledge about techno):

benny benassi - california dreamin (remix) (2nd favorite)
global DJs - the sound of san fransico; what a feeling
DJ caffeine - **** on cocaine
DJ scooter - hyper hyper; **** the millenium (favorite)

THANKS! PLEASE HELP ME OUT!

(also- I tried asking ppl at the clubs/bars about getting CDs from the DJs but none had any idea)

You're into the mainstream dance/electronica music. I use to listen to all of that when I was younger but i've now moved onto house, electro, funky, disco.

I'm not sure what new songs of your genre are out now, but I use to get cd's from Germany like Trance Arena, Trance Voices, Future Trance, Dream Dance and Kontor which had those songs you liked.

I still don't mind them but i don't have the space to get more.

This sounds like me... I really like Benny Benassi, he's pretty popular in Italy... Try to listen to:

1. Satisfaction (by Benny Benassi)

2. GSM (by Dual Band) is another really cool song. It doesn't have voices (I prefer songs with voices too), but it's extremely cool to dance.

3. Time To Rock (by Gabry Ponte). He's an italian DJ, but his songs are always in English. This one was really popular over here a couple of years ago.

4. Emergency 911 (by Prezioso). He's another Italian DJ, but he's popular in the whole Europe.

5. Rum & Cocaina (by Rich & Bìtch). The only sentence repeats "Rum and Cocaina" again and again, yet it's pretty cool.

6. Blow My Whistle Bìtch (by DJ Alligator). I'm pretty sure you've heard this one before, it's really upbeat.

7. Doggy Style (by DJ Alligator). Not really popular, yet pretty cool.

If yer lookin for really soulful, intelligent dance music, check out Charles Webster...his albums and remixes are H-O-T.

Vincenzo is another solid producer (not to be confused with DJ Vincenzo, who is a trancey ****) check out his compilation "Strip Joint Grooves" a future classic

Other great artists:

Larry Heard
Metro Area
Fish Go Deep
16B
Crazy Penis
Schmoov
Fred Everything
Trent Moller EP on Naked Music is my pick for hottest single of the year

No offense, but anyone who actually likes Tiesto deserves to be beaten to a pulp and urinated upon in public.

No offense, but if you like mainstream music then you deserve to be raped in the ass in public.

On a serious note:

Check out XM radio for channels 80 through 83 called "the Move," "BPM," "The System," and "Chrome."

As for artists, try:

BT
Deep Dish
Cascada
Juliet
Armin Van Buuren
Paul Van Dyk
Paul Oakenfold
Ferry Corsten
The Orb
Orbital
VNV Nation
