How many of y'all moved on from hip hop and into electronic music?

[TEH]

I thought I was the only one

 

[Buddy]

Electronic music??? if you're talking techno and shyt like i think i'm too analog for that.
At best some Chill Hop or Kaytranada/Flying Lotus... Neo Soul, Jazz, etc

[iceberg_is_on_fire]

I haven't moved on but electronic/edm music is my shyt.






A few of my all time favorites.

 

[camroni]

Anybody else listen to Burial? Not EDM but he's a top 3 artist for me

 

[3rdWorld]

'Electronic' is a white term for dance music.
In Black circles it's House music, in all its forms.

I consume copious amounts of House, deep house, Afro and Tech House. Lots of Reggae too since eliminating hiphop from my diet.

I couldn't tell you the last rap song I actually put on and played

 

[TAYLONDO SAMSWORTHY]

I still slap premium rap but EDM is my shyt

The shows are incredible, dope vibes, all love energy. Definitely an amazing music genre overall

Some of my favorite EDM nikkas

• Rufus Dü Sol (Went to the grammys saw them win their first one for “Alive”)
• Odesza
• Bob Moses
• Lane 8
• Zhu

A few favorite joints:

[Abstract83]

Been listening to different genre's of music for yrs. Haven't been listening to much hip-hop lately.

 

[Digital Omen]

The first electronic music I was exposed to was around 94, the Portishead/Massive Attack "Trip Hop" era




From them I branched out to Everything But The Girl, Morcheeba, and Tricky

Then I got into Drum & Bass around 96-97...the homie had went to London and brought back a mixtape





I was hooked immediately. Started raving (to my eternal happiness back then raves had D&B and Hip Hop rooms, along with House, Trance, Techno, Ambient, etc). I'd tell my crew "Hip Hop is my wife and Drum & Bass is my mistress" The Winter Music Conference in the late 90s was just incredible, went to the very first (and 2nd, and 3rd..) Ultra Festival. Raved all over Florida, and that's how I found Florida Breaks





Still into D&B, the other sub-genres eventually faded as no new generation stepped up. Some current D&B:




And for the heads, check this Mos Def D&B remix:

 

[BaggerofTea]

Personally I prefer west African folk music

 

[MikelArteta]
