electronic muzick

[Triarius Fidelis]

I'm not aware of the genre "scream grunge"

...certainly a description, and not the exact title of the genre, I'm sure.   I have QUITE descriptive terms and terminology to describe a lot of the stuff I hear......

LOL - thanks. Thought it sounded better than Grungy Screamers. (Though I wouldn't at all be surprised if they failed to bathe frequently enough.)

idk minus the long hair, I think the guys in Dioxyde look pretty clean



then we have Johan van Roy of Suicide Commando, who looks like a middle-aged German guy with short hair, because he, well, is:

I'm pedantic, and I just don't want dark electro and black metal being associated with the likes of Nickelback

Man, isn't that like saying Bach is worse than Beethoven? <g>

Bach is a Baroque composer

Beethoven is either Classical, Romantic or both depending on who you ask

And again grunge is totally different from black metal is totally different from dark electro

Now are we going to talk about electronic music or hasty preconceived images of people who play a given genre

relax, Mon, it was a feeble attempt at playing with your electronic brain ;-P

I still like the "old-style" electronica (just post Carlos). And these days with access to numerious DIY synth software packages, 'amatures' come up with some good stuff.

Almost afraid to ask, but why do you like such dark things? (It seems to me like musical/spiritual self-inflicted schadenfreude.)

@Epic Fail Guy...

To be perfectly fair,...It's probably just because I'm of the "older persuasion",...and music that I am familiar with, is what I seem to prefer.   I think your music interest is probably MUCH better than I hear loudly blasted at times in my neighborhood!   I (with great interest) will listen to some of your genre with an open mind,.....
Art can come in many forms.  There are fine artists in all medium,...that not everyone would espouse to (even though the artists may be very talented).   I think it's terrific that you have an avid interest that you enjoy.
The closest I guess I get to liking "electronic" music,...is something like Erasure and Ace of Base....   

EDIT: 
Just went to the YouTube site,...and listened to "Dioxyde - Morphine (chemo mix)"...
and I actually liked the music part pretty well,...(just didn't care for the raspy-whispering)..but that's just me.

It's electrochemical actually; there's a difference.

Although neurotransmitters, as far as I know, serve only to mediate electrical activity between neurons. I think you could have an artificial brain without neurotransmitters, though you might need functional equivalents.

I still like the "old-style" electronica (just post Carlos).

Carlos, Tomita, et al. are pretty awesome

I want to work for DARPA someday, as a neuroscientist. Since there's a very good chance I will be doing grossly unethical work, I ought to inure myself to its repercussions now.

I mean, seriously, here, just look at this:

Ace of Base is pretty good

"in all media", btw

Oh yeah. Panzerfaust (named for an early handheld antitank munition) is another very good song of theirs.

years ago I had 2 rats just like that (but without the electronics). They were some of the sweetest critters you can imagine, I sometimes still dream of them.

related: anyone here play/program synthesizers?

I control my microKORG with Renoise and the other way around.
