As a complete newbie, the several billion subgenres and such I always hear about are terrifying. As such, I'm hoping some of y'all could help me out with finding stuff similar to this: + Show Spoiler [like] + or And not things like these: + Show Spoiler [Dislike] + or Thanks a ton for any help you can give - very appreciated. Cheers!  | ||

Well that's almost embarrassing, there's a giant thread about exactly that in TL general right now. Checked it out and it seems good! T_T Thank you! | ||

And the best tracks are from the same artists as the tracks you posted here (Big Giant Circles, Sixto Sounds and Zircon). | ||

The tracks you posted: First one would probably be classified as progressive house of the arena avicii style thats really huge right now, but with some nice retro flavor. Second track is more electro house but with a ton of prog and some of that same retro. I will go throu and grab some tracks from my main comp a bit later for you to try and see which direction you like out of those. Should be fun. OK. I'm on my computer. So you have basically three elements in the tracks you like: Prog house, Electro, and a retro/french house vibe I'll take you in all the directions and see where you wanna go So firstly if you go in a bit of an electro direction you end up with artists like Lazy Rich, maybe you'll like his remixes + Show Spoiler + Maybe this kind of thing, long track but mixing progressive and electro/complextro elements + Show Spoiler + If you like the choppy wierd bits at all then you can go into stuff more like Wolfgang Gartner: + Show Spoiler + or even+ Show Spoiler + If you don't like that direction you can go towards prog house more, I don't really enjoy the more modern style with its emphasis on huge arena melodies, so here is some older style more relaxing stuff: + Show Spoiler + Then you have the french/retro angle. If you want to go in that direction there is Justice and the Ed banger stuff. I would highly recommend Dilemn: + Show Spoiler + You can keep going in this direction and end up with like: https://soundcloud.com/defeat/defeat-unbrkbl + Show Spoiler + and even: + Show Spoiler + all depends where you want to go...and then there is shit that is completely different... + Show Spoiler + Electronic is fun | ||

If I were you, Id check out Ed Banger Records (Justice, Sebastien ect.) since they might have some stuff you like. | ||

Special shoutouts to sob3k, that was especially helpful. :D If you want to investigate on your own, Beatport is the itunes of almost all new electronic. It has nice sorting and suggestion features so if you search for a track on it you can listen to a fairly large sample and connect to other releases by the label or other tracks by that artist/related artists. Of course then you can find these releases elsewhere on the web for a cheaper price usually ; | ||
