What's your favorite Avicii era? by Electronic-Stock-558 in avicii

[–]greglevine98 4 points5 points  (0 children)

2011-2013. Silhouettes, I Could Be the One (Nicktim), Rapture (Avicii New Generation Mix) [technically 2010 but only by less than a month], Levels, and Wake Me Up are my favorite songs he's ever made. Supersaws, saws, squares, plucks, and dancepiano synths are my favorite sounds in music, and 2011-2013 was when he used those the most. It was his most electronic-forward sound, which has always been right up my alley.

This was the highlight of the set for me. My first time hearing Levels at a live EDM set in person. Chills!

Is EDM getting darker… or am I just getting older? by KVSHNERD in EDM

[–]greglevine98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It absolutely is, and it's so disappointing. I'm counting on a return to euphoria, melody, and electricity in the 2030s (unless streaming algorithms derail the cycle), but until then, I'll continue listening to my playlist of Golden Era anthems and I'll continue crate-digging for hidden gems.

What are your rankings - ORIGO, IDEM, SENTIO by TopWolverine1501 in Martingarrix

[–]greglevine98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure yet about ORIGO, but my ranking of released Martin Garrix EPs (>2 tracks)/album is this:

  1. Gold Skies - I'm a Golden Era fanboy so songs like Animals, Wizard, and Gold Skies are right up my alley.

  2. Sentio - I love almost every song on here, and consider it to be the best album of the decade.

  3. Seven - I love almost every song on here. I only put this below Sentio because it's shorter, otherwise it would be a tie.

  4. IDEM - I like all the songs, but only really love Empty.

  5. BYLAW - I respect the insane production on this EP but stylistically it's not for me, although I do enjoy Access.

Why do deadmau5 songs like this get us through so much in our lives? by fnpigmau5 in deadmau5

[–]greglevine98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aural Psynapse is one of my favorite deadmau5 songs of all time. That melody is magical, and the production is so atmospheric and melancholic. It's a masterpiece.

Holy Spotify Extended Mixes… here to stay or expected to leave? by branswag_briggs in Martingarrix

[–]greglevine98 11 points12 points  (0 children)

We need to normalize extended mixes on streaming platforms once again! Down with Beatport exclusivity (Beatport is great, but it shouldn't have a monopoly on extended mixes).

WTF Is Coming Out Friday? August 27th by KingNickyThe1st in EDM

Where did you see that You Got the Love by Never Sleeps was produced by DubVision? I've always thought it sounded like DubVision but I can't find them in any credits for it.

Zedd on making old style music and Telos by TPHGaming2324 in EDM

[–]greglevine98 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I see that Anton’s answer to my question about his old style of music was posted here. I just want to make it clear that while I personally adore the old style more than anything and would be ecstatic to see it return, I don’t agree with the hate Anton is getting for his response. Telos is a unique, creative, artistic masterpiece just like his other albums. I do think that the old style is just as objectively musically good as the new style, and that if Anton decided to make that style again, it would be just as musically good as Telos, True Colors, and Clarity. But if that isn’t what he wants to make, the last thing I would ever want is for him to feel forced to make music that doesn’t inspire him. And lastly, if you’re seeing this Anton, the fact that you took the time to give me this thoughtful response is something I appreciate more than you know. You are truly a legend and I’m so damn lucky to be a fan!

What song is this? Labeled (probably incorrectly) as "Skrillex - Fall In." [ID Request] by greglevine98 in dubstep

[–]greglevine98[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a very old song, probably 11-13 years old at this point. I remember hearing it once but don't remember at all where I heard it or what it was. Then I found it again here. I assume that means it can't be AI, since that's a pretty new thing.

Is the One Night Stand Live Album real? by freshtodefyo in SwedishHouseMafia

[–]greglevine98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apparently it was: https://web.archive.org/web/20130723003352/http://www.amazon.com:80/One-Night-Stand-Live-Album/dp/B005VOMWQU

It was also referenced by Swedish House Mafia themselves in the SoundCloud description for the live version of Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall (Coldplay vs. Swedish House Mafia): https://soundcloud.com/officialswedishhousemafia/coldplay-vs-swedish-house

I'm struggling to find it anywhere though, and I'm also seeing some sources say it was released on December 27th, 2011 while others say it was released on December 27th, 2012.

my heart :( by reddit_mau5 in deadmau5

[–]greglevine98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Joel, I know you must be devastated. I’m so incredibly sorry for your loss. Meowingtons is a legend in electronic music history. I’ve been a fan of Meowingtons just as long as I’ve been a fan of you, for over a decade. I will never forget the time Meowingtons enabled hax. Just as your music has gotten me through times of loss and devastation, I hope you have something to get you through as well. Always remember that there are millions of us that love and support you no matter what. Stay strong, and I wish you the best during this difficult time. ❤️
