I grew up listening to a lot of very smart pop records by artists like Kate Bush, Talk Talk, Peter Gabriel, Prince, Depeche Mode, Tears for Fears, The The.
PG-13' is kind of a scattered, almost movie soundtrack album, with elements of punk and metal and electronica.
I worked with different producers from all genres, trying to bridge different styles of music, from urban to electronica to ballads.
Four Tet, a.k.a. Kieran Hebden, is a U.K. electronica artist whose diverse tastes have helped fuel a lengthy discography.
I love futurist music.
I love the Scissor Sisters.
Mash-ups have gained a lot of credibility between the fall of Danger Mouse's infamous 'Grey Album' and the rise of Girl Talk's overwhelming mega-mixes. There's just something marvelous about hearing seemingly mismatched ideas work together, as two worlds collide to a heavy beat.
I like a lot of electronica. I like older jazz rather than newer.
When I first heard Kraftwerk, I thought they were an American band singing in German.
My sound is definitely what I like to call 'e-clectric.'
My favorite song is 'Cybele's Reverie' by Stereolab.
For me, electronic music is the classical music of the 21st century.
I actually get a metallic taste in my mouth when I think about electric music.
I had no precise plan when I started 'Electronica,' but I think it has been a very positive journey for me.
This project, 'Electronica,' is about working with people who are a strong source of inspiration to me.
I'm a huge Stereolab fan.
I'm into heavy duty, psychedelic, foreign music. That's what I like listening to.
Of Montreal's early releases were loaded with playful but confessional acoustic tunes, but the band soon embraced glam-rock's freakier side on albums like 'Hissing Fauna Are You the Destroyer?' and 'Skeletal Lamping.' It was a shift fans might not have tolerated if it weren't for frontman Kevin Barnes' catchy, personality-driven songs.
Sigur Ros make beautiful music. Bloc Party are fantastic and exciting and innovative.
I only discovered electronic music as a teenager and I still love the Prodigy and Massive Attack.
'Oxygene' was one of the first, if not the first, popular electronic music album.
I'm not much into current electronic stuff, what I think of as lounge electronics, mumbling electronics.
I find myself listening to Blood Orange and Janelle Monae and artists like that.
I'm a huge fan of Flying Lotus. I like The XX's stuff.
I grew up listening to a lot of Kraftwerk, Gary Numan, Devo, all that stuff.
