I've finished up my electronica disc if anyone still would like to swap. Just send me a PM. Heck, even if you don't have anything to swap, I'm happy to send out copies if you are *seriously* interested. Hey...there's even a bonus disc included! The bonus consists of only two songs...one being 28 minutes which I felt the need to include as well as another essential song that doesn't quite fit in with the rest.
The music is basically a mixed bag. It's eases you in with a downtempo electro song along with some nice groovy ones, then comes some wild and crazy drum 'n bass and IDM (intelligent dance music), followed by some dancier tunes, then finally chills out at the end. The only stuff you aren't going to hear is house music which I can't stand. Although there's a lot of beats going on, this is definitely not a disc that you would throw in at a party, that's for sure!
Oh, and it sounds fantastic on the Axioms! The best way to listen is loud with the lights off!

Mary, if you could do this for me I would appreciate it very much. I'm pretty much computer illiterate(did I spell that right? lol) and don't have the skills to make a return cd. I would love to have a copy. I'll compensate if needed. Thanks.

i am not sure what electronica... music is. But I wouldn't mind experiencing something new and maybe i'll like it. Is there any way to download a sample?? so i can get an idea what it is. If not, i wouldn't mind getting a copy. Of course, would compensate you for whatever cost is involved.
thanks

That's what's great about these swaps.... I couldn't tell you the difference between House and Electronica!
I'm liking the new Trip-Hop station on XM lately though..... if that earns me any cool (ummm..."kewl") points!

Mark, you're cool no matter what!
Actually, House music is is a subgenre of electronica. I don't necessarily like the term, "electronica", because it's so broad. I like it better than "techno" though!
Anyway, here's a good definition of electronica:
Electronica is a rather ambiguous term that covers a wide range of electronic or electronic-influenced music. The term has been defined by some to mean modern electronic music that is not necessarily designed for the dance-floor, but rather for home listening. The origins of the term are murky, although it appears to have been coined by British music paper Melody Maker in the mid-1990s, originally to describe the electronic rock band Republica.

i'd love a disc. Strangely I've been listening to the electronica channel on XM (through DirectTV) while doing housework, really makes it go by faster!! maybe tomorrow i'll get off my dead a$$ and finish with the mix cd i've been "working" on. Gotta warn you though, it's gonna have a heavy dose of Celtic (not new agey) on it.
Who's the more foolish, the fool or the fool who follows him?

I love everything 'Electronic or Techno' so I know I'd love to check this one out... but I'd feel bad taking without giving so let me see if I can get motivated to put a disk together myself.
Thought I was one of only a few that loves music in this genre, seems to be growing.

Hi INANE! If you are already a fan of the genre, you might have a lot of the stuff that I put on the disc already. I've included a lot of popular "fan favorites" from the genre...like Aphex Twin's-'Flim', Orbital's-'The Box', Juno Reactor's-'Pistolero', etc. If you don't have these, then certainly let me know!

blackorp, I've uploaded a track from the disc for you (and anyone else) to check out. It's inbetween the weirder and more accessible stuff that I've included. If you can get through it and enjoy it, then you may be interested.
Here it is...Squarepusher's 'Beep Street'.
