weyes Posted October 17 Report Share Posted October 17 my aunt's birthday is coming up, and she always asks me to make a mix for her every year. ever since i've been into electronica of any sort it's been really hard for me to even try, because i don't have a "system" to speak of, and therefore can't mix or anything like that (not to mention that i'm not a dj, for chrissakes!), but she insists. sooo, can anyone recommend any songs that i can download off the 'net that stand on their own that are fairly accessible to the non-house/trance-fanatic ear? (i'm looking for house and trance - and stuff that's more infectious to the feet than the ears.)thanks for any help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

covetoys Posted October 18 Report Share Posted October 18 apoptygma bezerk -- very funky industrial/electronica maybe Perfect Kiss from New OrderAs the End Draws Near -- Manufactureor very very cool is Headhunter by 242-- I got my mother-in-law to like this song. She actualy wore the concert T when she used to cook.others Naive-KMFDMand definitly But Not Tonight, People Are People, and Enjoy the Silence from Depeche. Cool, toe-tapping reliables.Originally posted by thehacker apoptygma bezerkvnv nationcovenantfictional Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool, toe-tapping reliables. thanks, i'll check out the stuff you mentioned first 'cause i don't know it. but depeche mode and industrial isn't quite what i'm after; so far i've got stuff like deep dish's remix of "rapture" and joey negro's "american beauty" - a little more "get up and dancey" - know what i mean?

thehacker Posted October 18 Report Share Posted October 18 it's a bit dated, but yoshitoshi's set that comes in a flourescent green cardboard softcase is excellent. somewhere between house and trance. give it a whirl at a local record shop, or better yet, mondo kim's at st marks.
