I searched but couldn't find a thread that celebrated the world of Electronica, so I decided to make a small thread up in here. If you're an aficionado of this genre, feel free to post some of your favorite tracks or those that may be obscure. I'll start off with a little DnB.

Awesome contribution, leemajors...
I like the somber feel of the first track.

I'm generally more into ambient/electro dub/dubstep, but there is some damn good stuff out there.
Yeah, I love me some dubstep. I grew up on house and DnB mostly, but I welcome any form of electronica that moves me.
This was my genre of music back in the day. If the CD had an Astralwerks, Junior Boys Own, Ninja Tune, Wax Trax!, Mo'Wax logo on it, money was leaving my pocket.
Fell out of the loop with this genre in the early 00s, so I'm not sure what and who's current, although I do know that Grime/Dubstep is all the rage right now. Given my lack of knowledge of modern electronica, all I can offer are some classics from the mid/late 90s, early 00s.

Reprezant is possibly the greatest DnB record of all time.
Ah, Dieselboy...one of my ex gfs used to love spending a great deal at Dieselboy's sets. The memories...she was one amazing rave kid lol.
Here's some High Contrast
All these music threads I have seen over the years here at ST has only shown that my music tastes are extremely limited when compared to others.
I didn't really start expanding my musical desires until I got some good equipment. A good home theater/accurate speakers with a great set of headphones for listening on the go has really, really increased my ap ude as far as looking for/enjoying different styles of music.
Electronica, to me, still sounds like crap in a pair of $20 headphones. But put a solid pair of cans on my head with good isolation, and electronica is amazing. You can close your eyes and just disappear from the world for a little while.
I wouldn't say anyone's musical taste is limited because though I pride myself on having a taste that encompasses many genres, I know that there is tons I don't know. That's the beauty of music, in my opinion, is discovering something you like from an unexpected source. I became a fan of electronica based on a handful of friends who were DJs and part of the big promotion crews (when they were upstarts...) out here in LA, so I was basically living the "groove" lifestyle. lol
I do agree with Havoc though, electronica is limited when you're using just headphones.
I would. Mine for example. Metal, rock, classical and opera. Beyond that, nothing blows my skirt up.
But thats me, a limited listener who hasnt found good music since the Black Keys. Ive been listening to the same music for 25+ years with a new artist every 2-3 years.
Its pathetic, really.
Yeah, but within those four genres are subgroups of music. You have heavy metal...industrial...thrash and the like. That could lead to you exposing someone, say, like me who doesn't know much about metal beyond Sepultura, Slayer, and Fear Factory lol.
I saw Iron Maiden in concert last weekend. Killer show. Dream Theater opened and rocked as well.
Large pic, so I'm hotlinking.

I saw IM on the Palladium channel and Bruce has still got the vocals. Amazing band.
Yep. Dude can still kill it. It doesn't sound like he's lost anything from his earlier days.
NiT GriT-Stellamara - Prituri Se Planinata (NiT GriT Remix)
NiT GriT is changing dubstep for the better.
Rad Omen- Rad Anthem

Ronald, Jack, Wendy, the Kernel.........partying, coke, strippers. Awesome.
Holy crap, TSA is still alive.
