Welcome to Electronica: The American Movement. Electronica and other types of dance music are often based outside of the country (although there are many successful American artists and DJ's). This blog is for reviews, new material, videos, and outside comments about any and all artists in or out of the United States. Don't let the title mislead you, music is a link between cultures and by no means is this meant to defame any work done by artists outside of the country.
Reviews will be posted soon (based on the grading system below)....also keep on the lookout for my own side electronica project, The Upper Echelon, which is based entirely on Fruity Loops Studio 7.
The rating system will be based on stars, with one star (*) being the lowest rating and five stars (*****) being the highest. Half stars will also be awarded, for example, an album may receive ***1/2, or three and a half stars.
* - Don't buy it. Don't listen to it.....the worst of it's class.
**- Only 1 or 2 stand out tracks, best to listen to it before buying it.
***-A solid album, usually half or a little less of the tracks are great, and this album is usually worth purchasing.
****-Great album. These albums have small flaws, but are usually a pick of mine to be purchased.
*****- Classic. These albums are a must have. Flawless production is a must. Albums with this ranking are the champions of their class.
