About dTunes:
dTunes originally started as a blog in which I would showcase a new band every week. Soon, I moved on to themes. Every video was meant to be suggested by the community, the themes too. Unfortunately, my own personal tastes kept getting in the way. This time I intend to pick a community member from the Google Group that I made (send me your email if you want in) and let them post their favorite music for a week. By getting rid of the middle man (me) I intend on bringing to life my initial image of dTunes, a place where the community can enrich itself and create a better understanding on the individual members of the community by exploring their personal tastes.
I said Rock/Techno but I personally don't know jack about rock. I'm sure I meant pop/rock/techno. anyway...
Black Kids I stumbled across them during my random watching of The N when it was worth watching. I don't regret stumbling across this group at all as their first album gets more than enough playtime in the car/around the house. They're known for their old school 60ish feel in the music and it works completely. Plus, the singer's last name is fucking Youngblood.
Hurricane Jane
I'm Not gonna teach your boyfriend
Paramore Paramore to me is a love/hate relationship. as in love their first album, 2nd album is bleh, 3rd album makes up for the bleh in 2nd album. Misery Business got me interested, but it wasn't into I listened to their first album where I actually started to like them more.
Conspiracy
because I love this song so much (probably my favorite with Misguided Ghost) I found a live acoustic version which makes me melt.
Misguided Ghost
This is my top from these guys right now. Acoustic tracks I like. I just never can find acoustic version of songs I like....
Franklin
for some reason, I think of when they blew up Tom on Tonnami for this song. don't ask why. But in a sense, the song fits seeing Cartoon Network continually fucked up Tom's design after the 2nd version....and Toonami along with it.
Daft Punk This is a given. I don't even need to explain Daft Punk.
Digital Love
This song was my sex when Toonami did their midnight run of the first 4 Discovery tracks. It still is my sex. By all means this song made way for me and I still sing this song religiously whenever. Best bet, i'll make love to this song quick. (honestly i'd make love to that whole album)
Around the world
not the long version but something about hearing around the world for 8 minutes made me interested in Daft Punk...and then the video...
Aerodynamite
the whole Daft club album is something else for sure.
Something about us
hesre's a fanmade version that IIRC was featured on one of the front page segments.
Here's hoping the Tron 2.0 music kills too.
Randoms
yea I can't go any further cause this whole genre is rather weak on my end.
Keenan & Anderson feat Tiff Lacey - Runaway Mat Zo Dub Mix
Heard this one during Tiesto's clublife. I made this my summer 08 theme.
Tiesto -Summer Jam
same as runaway in being 08 summer theme. The "raid the night" theme here ladies and gents.
Ayumi Hamasaki - A Song For XX (Ferry Corsten Chilled Remix)
Ayumi Hamasaki is known for a bajillion remixes of her stuff and this one's a personal favorite.
People i'm CLEARLY missing but wish to add: Armin Van Buuren, Paul Van Dyk. Though I SERIOUSLY recommend anyone interested in Armin Van Buuren to check out his radio show A State of Trance. You won't be disappointed.
Aftermath: my friend who keeps me up to date and tells me stuff when it comes to electronica/techno artist decides JUST NOW to let me know of Ronald Jenkees. So yea...
Once again SHIN ONI . . . spot on! ^_^ Daft Punk is the shit, but everyone who has mentioned them in this series has yet to put up any of their Alive 2007 stuff! o_O That's probably their best stuff! I even imported the Holland exclusive Limited Edition just for the bonus songs! =D And yet another Armin? Booyah! His A State of Trance podcasts are indeed the shit, but I'd still say his best stuff is on his 10 Years double disc. Love You More, Wall of Sound, Sound of Goodbye, Shivers, etc. Nice tastes mate!
