Tickle Me Electric Emo s/d

PULSEPROGRAMMING!

TABUKAZU NAKEMURA/CHILSDISC!
DAEDELUS!

liking this music is totally making my not like myself. i don't like emo. i don't like idm. the mixture makes me happy?

i hate myself for loving you

Casiotone for the painfully alone? Do they fit?

the secret of this music = GURLZ LIEK IT

i can't believe i like a group called "limp", that has a song called "souvlaki space station".

i really hate all this shit except for the junior boys. i would argue it has something to do with "groove", but i think i hate each of them for different reasons.

groove is in the <3

i think it probably has to do with the fact that "indie pop" and "idm" are my least favorite variations on their respective parent genres, too.

ha ha screamo = vitalic

I highly reccomend the difficult to find Figurine - one of their songs is total electro-emo, called IMpossible, about a guy who's girl has moved far away and they can only talk via instant messenger - its super sappy, but the programming is awesome

Figurine features Jimmy "DNTEL" Tamborello.

Gygax! pointed it out already, but search all Daedelus, esp. his full lengths on Plug Research...

Also search Schneider TM - The Light 3000 (really pretty, glitchy Smiths cover).

Incidentally, this HAS to be the most-maligned genre on this board.

i like some morr and childisc but yeah i genearlly think the meeting place of indie pop and emotronix and anticon hip hop is a pasty pastel cesspit of doom.

If your into this music, i recommend this yahoo discussion group:

Don't worry, folks, something *good* that folks will say fits this genre is coming along. I can say no more.

Múm qualify, surely?

half of those bands aren't even remotely electronic. Isobella? Seaworthy? Aereogramme? Flying Saucer Attack?!

the list should have called itself "bands that might appear on a Darla compilation" and be done with it

Komeit are quite good.

I just got the, very nice, Super Furry Animals remix album in here, and see no reason why it can't be shoehorned into this spurious genre.
