08.06.23 | Cheeba City Blues -- the new one from Noise Unit -- would probably work on a playlist with the albums you have here. Noise Unit is (are?) the guys from Front Line Assembly who put their less-harsh stuff into side-projects. Their Industrial stuff has zero blues, but this album has a surprising amount, especially the tracks "Cheeba City Blues" and "Reality is Less Than TV." The album "Signs" -- from one of their other side-projects "Delerium" -- has even less Industrial, and a lot of New Age. It's a lot closer to Enya than Nine Inch Nails. |

mkmusic1995: “Hi everyone, I'm trying to delve into electronic music. I'm a newbie, I know very few electronic records and I don't know where the begin. I think it would be good to get some recommendations are pretty easy listening and would be a good gateway into the vastness of this genre. Thanks!” |
