So I mentioned on the authors chat that I may be working on an electronica pack. I posted my original shortlist, and there were quite a few requests made. So I am thinking instead I may make this a collab pack, so that we can get as many songs and styles as possible.

 

This was my original list:

 

Cascada – Everytime We Touch

Darude – Sandstorm

Deadmau5 – Ghosts ‘n’ Stuff

DJ Tiesto – Pirates of the Carribean

Skrillex – Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites

 

Espher then made a great ol’ list of suggestions with all sorts of styles.

 

Everything but the Girl – “Missing” (Todd Terry Remix) (1994)

Faithless – “Insomnia” (1996)

Sash – “Encore Une Fois” (1997)

Stardust – “Music Sounds Better With You” (1998)

Fatboy Slim – “Praise You” (1999)

The Avalanches – “Electricity” or “Frontier Psychatrist” (2000)

Moby – “Porcelain” (2000)

Paul Oakefold – “Starry Eyed Surprise” (2002)

Chemical Brothers – “Galvanize” (2004)

LCD Soundsystem – “Daft Punk Is Playing at My House” (2005)

Pakito – “Living on Video” (2006)

Bob Sinclar – “World, Hold On” (2006)

Fedde le Grand ft. Camille Jones – “The Creeps” (2007)

Eric Prydz – “Pjanoo” (2008)

Little Boots – “Earthquake” (2009) (DeadCanadian had been looking at this at launch)

Steve Aoki ft. Zuper Blahq (will.i.am) – “I’m in the House” (2010)

Justice – “Audio, Video, Disco” (2011)

Laurent Wery feat. Swift K.I.D. & Dev – “Hey Hey Hey (Pop Another Bottle)” (2011)

DJs from Mars ft. Fragma – “Insane (In Da Brain)” (2012)

 

So I made this thread so that we can discuss these choices and anything else you’d like to add. The point of this pack is to provide well-known electronic songs in a variety of styles. My original list was going for the obvious no-brainer stuff that people would recognize by name, so think about stuff that fits there.

Was going through some of our pre-Rapture/early post-Rapture notes, when I found another track that may be worth considering, though I don’t know if anyone else knows it. I know I hadn’t heard it for a long time but it showed up on the throwback show on bpm:tv here.

 

Charly Lownoise & Mental Theo – Wonderful Days (1995)

I listen to a lot of EDM and might have some interest in this. I can also recommend a bunch of new(er) songs, granted I don’t think electronica is quite the right word for it

LCD Soundsystem – “Daft Punk Is Playing at My House”

+1. I probably won’t author this myself, but I think it would be really popular.

Would be kinda funny having it at the same week as the Daft Punk C02 pack was released ” src=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/default_SA_cheeky.001.gif” />

I should remind you guys that I have an LCD Soundsystem pack planned, and that’s one of the songs I was gonna do (was originally going to be a collab with someone, but that someone has since become inactive, so I’m doing it solo). Though I do like the idea of releasing that song the same week as Daft Punk C02 ” src=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/default_SA_cheeky.001.gif” />
