Title: Flesh-out this playlist
Post by: tacroy on 10 Apr 2007, 01:14: So I'm in sort of a playlist-making phase right now, and and trying to put one together solely of really catchy dance/electronica songs, although I'm using a rather broad definition of "dance/electronica." Figured it might be kind of fun to get a group-constructed playlist going.
A few basic parameters:
Try and only pick tracks you can dance to. Obviously this is wildly subjective, but I trust you understand what I mean.
Remixes are fine (please specify which, if there are several)
There is no limit to how many songs can come from a single artist
Upbeat songs preferred
Obscure and mainstream songs are treated equally
The list does not have a maximum length

I have a few tracks to start it off, so everyone has an idea of what I have in mind.

RJD2- "1976," (http://www.sendspace.com/file/vboq5e) "Ghostwriter" (http://www.sendspace.com/file/1acz2h)
Daft Punk - "One More Time," (http://www.sendspace.com/file/n2ic9v) "Digital Love"
Orbital - Chime (http://www.sendspace.com/file/9hx6tc)
Mylo - Otto's Journey (http://www.sendspace.com/file/17zli0)

Title: Re: Flesh-out this playlist
Post by: Spinless on 10 Apr 2007, 08:04: I'd agree with Flaming O, if Pinback were either catchy, dance or electronica. None of which they are, so nevermind.

Bjork's Debut and Post will have something for you. 'There's more to life than this' immediately sprung to my mind.
Polysics are hell of catchy.

That's enough from me, let somebody else play.

Post by: Spinless on 10 Apr 2007, 10:27: Hey guys, how about 20 of us pick ONE additional song, then we work on arranging them into a structured playlist?
So we all have one track we have submit for the playlist?

I'd agree with Flaming O, if Pinback were either catchy, dance or electronica. None of which they are, so nevermind.

My only other suggestion is Q and Not U. They are catchy and dancy. Still, Pinback is good.

re: Spinless' post if I had to pick one to fit into a playlist with the other songs already suggested it'd probably be the first one
Title: Re: Flesh-out this playlist
Post by: Spinless on 11 Apr 2007, 11:47: FO, I recommend Sonic Youth to metal heads because it's the closest thing to metal I listen to. They really do appreciate it.
Or maybe I don't do that.

I guess my 'submission' is the Bjork song I mentioned further up the page.

That would be pretty cool.

Loving the recommendations so far, guys. Thanks again, and keep them up :-)
