SkyMuffin: If you liked Chrystal Castles I would recommend Aphex Twin. He is very well acclaimed as an experimental electronica artist. Check out the album "Selected Ambient Works 85-92." Also try Massive Attack. I would check these guys out first as they are great. The album "Heligoland" is my favorite, although "Mezzanine" got great reviews as well.
Don't have a last.fm But I am on blip.fm Also props on your picks for crytal castles, radiohead, air, and badly drawn boy
Already listen to Massive Attack, although I feel that they are kind of low-key/boring for trip hop haha. If you like then, you'd probably like Sneaker Pimps, Lovage, Bitter:Sweet, and Portishead. Aphex Twin I need to listen to. Been meaning to for awhile. Do you like Benn Jordan/The Flashbulb? I looked through your blip.fm briefly. Try: Broken Social Scene, Metric, The Books, Josh Ritter, World's End Girlfriend, and Piana. If I did that, I wouldn't have any music (or be able to afford any)...and my life would be a lot emptier. Music is too wonderful to pass up.
Really? Hm fair enough. But thanks for those suggestions, I will check them out! And as I'm relatively new to the electronica seen I've not heard of them, but I'll take a look. Aphex Twin is brilliant, its hard not to at least appreciate his work, even if you dont particularly like it.
There is no such thing as "Electronica", really. Aphex Twin fits several different genres, most notably IDM. http://techno.org/electronic-music-guide/ Also - Telefon Tel Aviv
I don't find them boring . . . hear that bass drop, the slight guitar strum, insane vocals . . . ahhh . . . love this song
I haven't been on last.fm in ages. But I remember having something like 17,000 Converge plays. I used to get dudes coming over and posting about how much I rock for having that many. Weird interwebbers.
