yes you posted just after me, and corrected my post (like you did with the famously transgender JMJ)
:D
OK It is very feasible that my mention of Heaven 17, prior to that, might have led to you thinking of Human League
-
Your mention of H17 made me think about THL. If I wanted to correct your missing "The" I would reply to your comment.
Also "...famously transgender JMJ"? WTF you're saying? A little respect for this legend of electronic music. By the way, JMJ had more women than you ever dreamed...

I detect sarcasm is real world and also online (but not everytime)
English is not my first language. Some misunderstandings should be expected.
-
oh, fair enough
well, you've got excellent taste in dance music for a barbarian.
(please note, this was 'playful insulting based upon the assumption that I'm too witty to be racist')
-
I had a dream where I had all the women JMJ had. And then his mum.
so technically I've dreamt more than he's had.
-
Are you French?
because I'm now reading all your posts with a French accent.
-
H-Stein this'd this
-
alright calm down calm down. I obviously respect JMJ a bit or I wouldnt
have nominated Zoolook, I was going to nominate Revolutions too (except I wasnt quite so sure how much actual orchestra is on that(if any))
PS I dont go in for d*** waving, numbers of women 'had' (urgh). I often mention that there were less than 10 in my case.
PPS are you implying that being transgender is something abhorent? a slur? The one thing that I do think about such people as a generalisation, is that they must be quite brave, beyond that I know nothing of their qualities
-
I wasn't getting at that
I was just wondering where you were from.
The reason all of the above was sarcasm is everyone in the UK learnt French at school and knows about French names. Well maybe not everyone, but everyone you're likely to meet on here.
-
deep-blue this'd this
-
I said 'transgendered' as a joke, because you had pointed out to me that
I had spelt his name as michelle. and then St Badvibes joined in the fun with pointing out that Jean is a womans name as well.
So I was just kind of referencing that.

I hope not. I didnt realise that my mentioning of JMJ
seemed as if I thought of him negatively. I thought I was acknowledging his significance. (Zoolook at the time was enormously significant (if a little anorachy))
Also I did admit that the mentioning of H17 might spark off someone to think of the human league, I was only having a bit of fun. I also put in a :D sign to indicate that I was being funny, not serious.
Do you think Im being trolled here?

well I honestly dont mean any offence and you seem to hav good taste/knowledge of
electronic music (which I love)
So as long as you are not a tory then we're fine (actually even if you are one, thats probably ok because the sort that are on Dis actually seem OK, apart from CG, but thats because he is a double agent, posing as a tory, so as to bring them into further disrepute intellectually)
-
and particularly with me, dont worry about not being able to make sense
from what I sometimes post. I think that a lot of Disers also cannot make sense of what I post.
I have yet to prove to them that the fault lies with them and not me though.

Evil Heat is quite rock-y, almost in the same XTRMNTR way. At least half of it.
Anyway Evil Heat include Primal Scream's best electronic song, "Autobahn 66".

VP is less electronic
than XTRMNTR and Evil Heat in my opinion. Still a classic album but more intrument based rather than production based. Echo Dek exists as VP's electronic and dubby sister album.
-

-
What about songs like...
Get Duffy
Trainspotting
Out of the Void
Stuka
Star
If They Move, Kill 'em
Long Life
?They definitely have an electronic vibe. Even Kowlaski sounds like a rockier The Chemical Brothers.
PS: I know about Echo Dek. It's not quite a PS album since it contain songs from VP remixed by Adrian Sherwood.

I don't think so
although now I think of it, pretending to be foreign would be really fun.
I always presumed he was British by the fact he likes all the same British 90s dance music as me.

naming indie-electro artists like m83 is a bit self-defeating, and just confirms the stereotype.

Do Massive Attack or Portishead count?
Surprised they haven't been mentioned yet.

MA was mentioned
Yes, they count. Trip-hop is a subgenre of electronic music.

electronic musics home is the ep anyway so this is thick, i dont count stuff like caribou, panda bear etc as being 'electronic' for some reason, it doesnt seem quite right in my head.

Well, if most sounds from a particular record are made from synths or other electronic devices, then that record could be considered electronic music.
Even rock albums could contain few electronic songs (e.g. "On the Run" from Dark Side of the Moon).
