@URWLcentral Well said :) Totally agree.

@DroiidLife WHO?

@URWLcentral Yo, have you had a listen to Tipper? He, in my opinion, is well beyond the norm. Incredibly complex stuff, and could well be where we're headed.
Though to his misfortune, he's not as popular as he should be.
His latest stuff is out of this world!

bullshyte. Dedmau5 is boring.

Not true. Those artists are just trendy fodder and will be forgotten.

Amazing seminal track

I love this beat, incredible stuff!

I love this music, the bassline alone is enough to keep me around but the whole thing is just one big wonderful mindfuck =)

Sakamoto is above and beyond what passes for electronic music these days. He was an originator and pioneer who, along with YMO, became the next logical progression of electronic music after the innovations of Isao Tomita and Kraftwerk. This song was way ahead of its time.
In 2011, too many try to become the "next" Skrillex, the "next" Deadmau5, the "next" Justice...Sakamoto, YMO, Kraftwerk and Tomita originated what all three and the entire genre itself embodies to this day, end of story.

Sorting out my loft today - found my 1980 vinyl copy of B2-Unit (this track comes from it) . I'd forgotten how ahead of its time it was. Most excellent !
