Help Me Expand My Music Tastes!

[PE42CY]

Hey guys,

Alright, I've only just started to listen to this "style" of music seriously in the last sort of 4-6 months. At the moment I am listening to and loving stuff like Deadmau5, Daft Punk, Avicii, Pendulum, David Guetta and Swedish House Mafia. I am also loving all the music on this Tomorrowland 2011 video:

All I'm looking for is music similar to this or stuff that you think I would like based on what I am listening to at the moment.

The best way is to listen to DJ mix's man, find the songs you like then find out who the artist is etc, we have plenty of mix's in the Genre sections you can check out...other then that...

The artists your listing there are mainly well know House and electro artists, do you know if you like other genre's like disco? or dubstep?

Ill give you a quick list off the top of my head to check out best option is to youtube these artists names as their most popular songs will show up 1st

@Jaz - I have no idea if I like other genres. I'm hopefully here to learn and find that out. Are all the artists you have listed House and Electro artists or are they from all different genres? I'll start searching!

@eggssell - Thanks mate. I'll give that a whirl as well. I'll see what I can find.

If your wanting to expand your music tastes it's always best to never limit yourself to a couple genres, you'll sometimes find some dnb or dubstep artists will also experiment with other genres such as electro or breaks etc, the more you check out the better bro
