Hey guys.

I used to be into almost exclusively prog/rock, but as time's gone on I've started to appreciate electronica quite a bit. Unfortunately, I know nothing about good groups or anything - other than the Glitch Mob and some of AWOLNATION's stuff. I've looked up some stuff online, but I had a hard time finding good stuff. I also really like these kinds of songs/remixes (heard on party in the park 2): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l6X_uMrId8Y

I was wondering if anybody had any suggestions on groups they like/songs they like that kind of mix in there. Thanks!

+k for help

Classics. That 3 hour long Avicii set is unbelievable. It just goes and goes and it's so good throughout.

At first all I saw was prog/rockand was like OMG I know so much prog/rock and can help so much! Then I read on and saw you wanted suggestions for another genre and then I was disappointed hahaha

So check out Jamie's trance thread. There's some good mixes in there, especially the Aly and Fila Future Sound of Egypt mix.

https://www.newschoolers.com/ns/forums/readthread/thread_id/566018/

Here's a couple mixes from Electric Daisy Carnival from not long ago. Each is about an hour long.
Avicii: http://www18.zippyshare.com/v/56668469/file.html
Calvin Harris: http://www20.zippyshare.com/v/57905526/file.html

Pretty sick remix by Alex Gaudino:
http://www38.zippyshare.com/v/53162352/file.html

Pryda - Mirage
http://www30.zippyshare.com/v/32864728/file.html

Avicii - Levels (classic and overplayed but so catchy)
http://www9.zippyshare.com/v/36152073/file.html

Michael Cassette - Temporarity (fucking awesome album, use the second DL link)
http://www.filestube.com/6vH27mgJqj5hKSG3xCSqhQ/temporalidad.html

Avicii - Derezzed (a great remix of a Daft Punk song)
http://www38.zippyshare.com/v/77494066/file.html

Flux Pavillion - I Can't Stop
http://www5.zippyshare.com/v/28026961/file.html

David Guetta - Titanium
http://www14.zippyshare.com/v/14707257/file.html

And just in case you don't have them...

Glitch Mob - Drink the Sea
http://www.mediafire.com/?bvmu0778jvaux1b

Glitch Mob - We Can Make the World Stop
http://www22.zippyshare.com/v/60924658/file.html

I may get some flak because a lot of this is "played" or "popular" but it's all fucking dope music if you ask me. I listen to all of this shit all the time.

Also, protip. To get free music, google "Album Name, Artist Name, Site:zippyshare.com" Other sites include mediafire.com and rapidshare.com.

Good luck! Enjoy!

And quoting for emphasis. This set is unbelievable, you won't regret downloading this. If you download only one thing that I've posted, this needs to be it.

Have I hear of Dream Theater hahahaha Of course man I'm more into other progressive stuff like Tool, Porcupine Tree, Neal Morse Band, Opeth, to me Dream Theater sort of pisses me off because I hate Mike Portnoy, John Petrucci is just John Petrucci, and James LaBrie is annoying to listen to haha. If you haven't checked out the bands I listed your missing out haha

Hahaha thanks a lot man - great stuff, downloaded all of them. :P Thanks for all the suggestions dude.



@NJurkiewicz - yeah i agree, mike portnoy's a bitch. I'm glad he quit.. their last albums with him were god-awful. Mangini brought life back to them. But yeah, I'll agree on Labrie as well. I usually prefer listening to instrumental sections with Myung and Rudess/Petrucci solos... ;) Tool/Porcupine tree etc.. good stuff too.


@maximiliaan - hahah interesting! +k
