I'm pretty old school. [youtube]Pc_-LRzgZoI[/youtube] Weird and really long story about the first song on that clip - "Behind the Mask". Somehow, Michael Jackson heard it, fell in love with it, and decided to record it. He wrote some new lyrics for it, and had the entire song done, but his new album ended up running rather long, so he shelved it. (The album? Thriller. Ryuichi Sakamoto must be bumming - can you imagine ALMOST getting a song onto the best selling album ever?) The keyboard player on the session Greg Phillinganes decided he liked the song a lot, and so cut it for his first album. He had a modest R&B hit with it.

He picked up some airplay with it, and it was part of his live set for several years.

Dubstep is so much better than normal techno. Love dubstep. I just don't know much of it yet unfortunately. But I also like the less hardcore, alt-rock/indie electronic music too. Like LCD Soudsystem (saw them live in February, best day of my life. ) and The Postal Service.
This thread is making me make my first post in a long time. I LOVE electronic music! I just went to the Above & Beyond show in Santa Cruz and saw Cosmic Gate and Dirtyphonics in SF. I really like this song right now, Thing Called Love by Above & Beyond edited by Mat Zo. Completely awesome.

Armin van Buuren and Dash Berlin are my other favorites, and BT
