Ishkurs Guide to Electronic Music
You guys ever have a website you liked a long time ago, forgot about it, suddenly remember it, but can't find it, give up for a few years, remember it again, and suddenly find it after a decade or more?
That's what happened here, sadly, the original website in all its glory(pictured below) has been replaced with a much more robust history and much better web compatibility(RIP FLASH). This guy really nailed down how to learn about something, even as niche as electronic music sub genres and timelines. What makes this great, if you've likely never heard of it, is he provides a sound sample for every genre, includes them chronologically, and some great dialogue, this guy sounds like the ultimate russian doomer with his style of writing, but it's still great. https://music.ishkur.com/ Let me know your favorite genre or quote if you like it.

That pic you posted is amazing Knuckle.
I call it all "techno" because that is what people understand, and I am not a genre police elitist kinda person so I don't care what the name is. Bottom of the list in techno genre is the new pop style techno from guys like Avicii that stuff goes away from the parts of techno I like so much that it actually makes me kinda mad. Top of the list in techno genre are a few songs from what were the good old days for me, like "enter the future" by dj energy then all of the DDR songs like "drop the bomb" and "soldier of fortune" and "ba kwah" or something like that. Then I like happy hardcore style, like Scooter, Lasgo A lot of individual songs that stand out as being incredibly amazing, like "omnibus" and "star child" and "star child 2" There aren't a lot of artists that I like whole heartedly though. Like DJ energy, a lot of his stuff doesn't do it for me despite "enter the future" being one of my favorite songs of all time. I also like things closer to europop like a few songs by the artist E-type And getting away from techno much more into electronic pop, I like the two or three latest albums from Robyn besides the newest one which was kind of a miss for me. I really like that website can't wait to dig in sometime. | ||

It really is a thing from the days before "social media" pretty much successfully destroyed the internet.
Actual content on an actual website that isn't only existing to sell you something. My goodness. Amazing and inspiring. I am going to start a website in the olden ways soon. | ||

Electronic game rearrangements like on ocremix have been a multi decade addiction I frequently revisit. I feel like "game music remixing" should have it's own genre due to its growth and popularity but i suppose it would be bucketed under one of these 'sampling' type genres. And yeah Gustoo, this website really is amazing, I actually am amazed at how much content has been added since I last visited. Feel like I'm in the ultimate interactive wiki on electric music history of the 20th century.

I think when we do things genuinely like build something cool just for the fun of it and to help others (not to toot our own horn) it is a great stepping stone and i'm not accusing ppl of doing that, I am encouraging it and saying its a good idea
i need to find something like that too, and just make it, for fun, and good | ||

Going through a phase exploring this stuff. The nostalgia trips are real for me, find myself fascinated by the creativity.
