Total Eclipse - Access Denied




Total Eclipse is a nice, electro-jazz band. Their combination of laid back electronic music and jazz/funk leaves little to be desired. Great music to just chillax to, or if you really want something nice to listen to. Enjoy!

Front 242 - Pulse


Front 242 has been making masterfully crafted industrial EBM for quite some time, and their 2003 album does not disappoint. Not only does it offer some good, dancey beats, it becomes quite quiet, even introspective at times. One of their most experimental albums, but IMO one of their best, Pulse has a wide range of sounds and beats, but all are extremely well put together. definitely recommended.

Elliot Levine - The Funk, The Whole Funk, And Nothin' But The Funk

Elliot Levine can best be described as smooth jazz. His good, highly creative music is made using everything from a sax to a keyboard, and his musical prowess is never wanting. Although the songs can be a bit cliche at times, it is still a good listen. Great background music, but also can serve as very good listening music. Enjoy!

Basement Jaxx - Remedy


Basement Jaxx is really good electronic music. It's both dancey and jazzy at the same time, and has some damn good beats. Rendez-Vu sticks out as the best song in my humble opinion, but all the songs on this album are solid. If the album artwork didn't perk your interests, then I don't know what else can. It's as good as you think it could be ;)

Skinny Puppy - Too Dark Park




Skinny Puppy's 'Too Dark Park' is often considered the peak of their musical career. The album itself is a phantasmagoria of sounds and layers. The vocals are harsh but discernible, but they are generally a loose collection of ideas that don't make to much sense. This album has so much going on that it always has something new on each listen. Highlights are 'T.F.W.O.' and 'Spasmolytic'. Download at:

:wumpscut: - Evoke




:Wumpscut: is the one man band of Rudy Ratzinger. His electronic music can be described as industrial, but in reality seems to escape any specific classification. The songs are all pretty good, although "Maiden" and "Rush" seem to stick out as highlights. Definitely recommended for the fans of any type of electronica.

!!! - Myth Takes




!!! describes themselves as 'melodramatic pop music', and this by far their most experimental album to date. Myth Takes is a good mix of acoustic pop, experimental, and some electronics thrown in along with some jazz influence. A great, solid album.
