I was curious if any one knew of any bands. i really like dirty vegas's famous song, can't think of the name and also DJ Alice's "Do you think your better off alone"... if anyone knows a good DJ that they like that i can check otu there music...

I find a good way to find new stuff is just to go out and buy a Euro techno mix album. I'm acctually making my own techno songs as I type this. It's fun as hell. I have fruity loops, it's a nice program that does the trick.

But yeah just grab some Euro mixes and you'll find stuff you like.

haha yeah that **** blows. Basicaly don't get stuff that you hear on the radio. Make a friend who is a DJ and plays electronic, house, ambient, and trance. Thats how you learn new groups. Or just seach for MP3's of those catagories and just see what you find. That is what I usually do.

If ya want really thick electronic music search for "trance" on kazaa or whatever you use, trance is a type of electronica, like acid is to rock. If you want an electronic sound but kind of a surfer style tune search for "looper" its one of my fav bands, some of their music was in that movie vanilla sky with tom cruise ( it was playing at his birthday party)

Looper. That's funny. I remember when you could download pretty much the entire Looper CD off mp3.com. I thought they sounded too good to stay in the shadows for long. I'm a looper.

These people are all pretty well known but if you go to your local music store here is what you do. Look through the techno section. Find a couple albums you are interested in and give them a blast in the store. You will find alot of neat groups you just won't hear about anywhere.Then you can post about it here so I can check it out too.

I've been really digging the downtempo stuff lately. I turn everybody I can onto Kruder & Dorfmeister. Peace Orchestra and Tosca share the same personnel. Thievery Corporation is really outstanding too. I could go on and on...
