Exposing people to new music

[Kyon]

This is a thread I've always wanted to start. Basically it goes as this. Someone says they want to listen to a new kind of music and the people who listen to it give a few songs. One song that would help them transition from whatever they usually listen to, to this one (if you don't know of one, don't sweat it). One song that shows the genre at it's best. And one last song to show the early days of said genre. Who wants to start?

I wish to get into Dub-step

I'll name a criteria of music that i like:

 

Easy to sing lyrics(gender/language of singer doesn't matter, i'm an aspiring singer, so anything in a High- baritone range.)

Great guitar

and

Inspirational sounding. almost to the point of sounding depressing

[Mr. ShinyObject]

I think this is more for naming a style you don't like, so we can tell you how to start liking it. Either way, my Dad always plays this on his guitar, and I always thought it was on the edge of being inspirational and depressing. The lyrics are pretty slow and simple.

I've been meaning to listen to more hard rock (I think thats the term, I'm talking like KISS and Led Zeplin), if anything because Tenacious D makes it sound like its awesome. As for current interests from which to branch from, I'm a big fan of Queen and Awolnation.

[Blightmare]

Actually shiny, I think it could also be for people who may like something from a genre and want to hear more of it but not know where to start and/or who to look up.

 

I've been looking for more of the following:

 

Drum and Base

House

UK Garage

Dubstep

Chiptune

 

 

Heck, anything electronic as long as it isn't speedcore. The above listed being higher priority.

[Alyxx Thorne]

I love chiptunes too.

[Blightmare]

The only 2 chiptune artists I know of with a substantial amount of material are anamanaguchi and Kitune^2.

[Alyxx Thorne]

You should check out Trash80. They don't have much music (only 2 EP's on 8bitpeople) but it's really good.

that's actually quite a bit. and the first song I clicked is sounding pretty good. Thanks.

[Alyxx Thorne]

Yep, there's a lot more on his site.

Since House music has expanded into thousands of subgenres, I'll post several examples of modern House.

 

sYrGs3Tyd_A

Electro House

 

Bk-MI2rHf4M

Progressive House

 

sEe8RjDvkrA

Dutch House

[Blightmare]

I'm liking the first 3, not so much the Dutch House. Most particularly the Electro House.

[Axeldeath]

Could someone help me with getting some music similar to this stuff?

[Vapymid]

I am not into this type of music. Your last one made me think of B-52's, like this piece, for instance

Presumably, you this one already?

So this is something that's been at me for a while. I've been desperately trying to search for music with a particular kind of synth in this song. You first hear it come in among the 8 bit sounds around 0:42 and once again, even more prominently around 1:28. I can only describe it as a "zipper" like sound.

 

It can also be heard in http://vulpvibe.bandcamp.com/track/eggs quite a bit.

 

Biggest problem, I've have 0 luck finding anything else with this sound. People have classified this artist as house, UK garage, and electro but none of those genre's I've been able to find anything similar.

 

Heck, I'll even take music with a similar sound in general.

[Axeldeath]

You might have some luck checking out modern remixes of 8-bit game music.

[Jek Jek Roo]

Does anyone know any good/ indie German rock/ hard rock/ heavy metal/ nuMetal / TripHop bands?

I'm into music like Mignight Oil, Led Zeppelin, Linkin Park, Korn, Uncle, Massive Attack ect... Something from 70's but also newest ones.

[Axeldeath]

Here's a selection of some stuff.
