Hi,
I think I'm listening "seriously" for about 3 years to the electronic music gerne. Daft Punk brought me back into the scene Then I discoverd Justice and the Ed Banger Crew and I was overwhelmed by their sound. After some time I got to know to other lables and their artists like Kitsune or Institubes and Boys Noize or SMB. Through the Internet I had a really good overview of the releases via. blogs and myspace etc.. But I took me some time after I really felt that I was in the scence and was able to talk to others about it seriously.
Same thing when I started to read US comics at first I was overwhelmed too by all the comics my local store offeres but know I have developed a proper view which label, artists or release I like and I feel really comfortable walking into a store: It's not like OMG how I'm a supposed to get the comic I want.
But here comes the difference:
For some time I listening more and more to electronic music from the techno/minimal genre. because "I'm kind of bored" from all the electro house, indie disco, fidget stuff. Same as I discoverd the other scene I feel overwhelmed again by the whole scene, but now after some time this effect is still there. There a soooo many different labels and types of this genre and they don't really destighuish from another by beeing techno or minimal for my ears like the genres I listened before! I really like this kind of genre and I'm listen to lot of releases atm. My family members are on the edge and they are already complaining about the monotone dun dun dun music I'm listening to
It's not that I want to be part of a scene by knowing all releases etc. but I still feel new to it, is here anyone in the forum who has a good overview of the scene and likes to recommend some tracks or must knows? And do you have same experience like me that there is a moment where you can say: Yes know I know the scene and feel comfortable about it!
I hope you guys got me and my english is understandable
I really excited to read about your experiences!
