Too many labels put on tracks now. Doesn`t matter what it is as long as you like it. Everything comes back to House or Techno eventually.

I find the best way to look up new music that you want to explore is on discogs - www.discogs.com

Look up the various artists/labels from the tracklist you posted and you will find info on other releases from both the artists and the labels and also other CD's/vinyl they are featured on. You really cant beat discogs for investigating music

One example from your list...

electro
ambience

Good thing you didn't post that in experimental music, seeing as that mix is about as experimental as The Cheeky Girls.

Yeah, i would have said electro house, if thats the type of stuff your into then have a look at artists like...

Trentemoller
Dave Spoon
Tocadisco

erm loads more can't think of any right now!
Try out the ministry of sound annuals too, the australlian ones from this year and last year are quite good... Uk aren't so good, 2007 has some ok tracks!

Can't stand that Exceeder tune, really naff cheesy electro house at it's worst for me...

Trentemoller and Dave Spoon are leagues ahead and both (esp Trentemoller) have produced some classic tunes over the years... Check out Le Champagne by Trentemoller for a serious slice if deep and slightly techy goodness.... the tune still holds up brilliantly nearly four years later.

In that case you'll simply love the vocal mix they've put out on release featuring some has-been hip-hop girl....truly woeful.
I liked the original instrumental, but this vocal mix has spoiled even that by mere association.
This keeps happening with semi-decent electro house tracks and belittles the whole genre...

pity,cause its always gonna happen with the genre of the month when the record company smells money. so many tunes down the years have been ruined by the apparent need for more airplay etc.....

worst thing is we'll all probably own or have already heard them months before,
think how many tunes you loved before they were played to death with a bird (probably not as good looking as the one in the video)singing sh!te over the top....
many spring to mind

That horrible version of Strings For Life with Kathy Brown TOTALLY ruined it imo... The remix itself wasn't bad (although a little cheesy) but once they released the version with Kathy Brown singing on it they killed it.
