I need to find "darker" electro/house music

I need to find “darker” electro/house music

I’m trying to find more electro/house music like Drop Down by Designer Drugs

Whenever I search for stuff like “top rave songs” though, most of the recommendations are really happy sounding cheesy stuff. Anyone able to offer suggestions on stuff with a more noisy and dark-ish approach? I’m thinking more of stuff that’s good for dancing to, by the way.

C’Mon by Tiesto also somewhat has this noise and darker style to it

Wolfgang Gartner - Wolfgang’s 5th Symphony

Maybe try:
Madox / John Aquaviva - Running From feat. Tommie Sunshine (Olivier Giacomotto Remix)

Greg Cerrone - Bullit (Miles Dyson Remix)

Mike Hulme - Set The Controls (Hedflux Mix)

BSD - Elektro-Life (You And Me)

BSD - Phantasmagoria

RMS & Peak - New Realm (Hedflux mix)

This isn’t really the genre I dig too deep into so I have no idea if those will help at all. You can check all of them out on Beatport if there aren’t youtube videos to listen to.

Justice

Felix Cartal?

Anything from huoratron is pretty dark, he’s crazy to see play live…so much energy.

Some stuff from Knife Party too maybe…(this video is nsfw fyi)

Anything from le castle vania generally has a pretty dark drop to it as well, ESPECIALLY this song. Oh god, it’s so good :smiley:

that’s all I can think of for now…if you need some more just ask and I’ll scrounge around a little deeper.

I really like Les Petits Pilous:

And you’ll definitely tear off the roof with this one:

My electro dub mix on YouTube ha some dark stuff check out the tracklist

Maybe?

I create my own Techno/Hard techno.
It’s a bit dark.
Lemme know what you think.

Don’t buy it, just click preview. If you like it, I’ll send you a free copy. (:

The Felix Cartal song I might use, and the Les Petits Pilous stuff is really close to what I’m looking for for the show as well. Perhaps what I’m looking for would be better described as having the dynamics and energy of house or club music, but more noisy. Satisfaction by Benny Benassi (particularly the main synth/bass line) is another example of what I’m thinking.

Thanks for the replies so far, and any other suggestions would still be appreciated!

That’s not techno that’s hardstyle?!

I said “Techno/Hard Techno

Proxy - Raven was quite big a few years ago

dancing in the dark is also nice

Some Saint Pauli Remixes could work as well

or

All that stuff is around three years old because that was when I had my electro house phase, but i’m sure some of the artists still produce that kind of tracks.

/edit.. also some older boys noize stuff

Yo!

Check out the following DJs:

  • The Oddword
  • Gtronic

Type those names into the search bar on Youtube and have fun listening mate! :smiley:

I have dial-up so I couldn’t listen to the videos but try “Dark Trance vs. Neo Goth volume 1 DJ Rib non-stop mix” it’s 2 cd’s. This may be what you’re looking for.

Miles Dyson’s label

King Kornelius

Fatso

GESAFFELSTEIN

more techno tip than electro, but the lines are so blurred now days you can mix it in an no one will give a f:eek:ck.

This stuff reminds me of old dark new wave… brilliant!
