Industrial / EBM / Dark electro category

Industrial / EBM / Dark electro category

When browsing radio stations or genres, one thing I find is blatantly missing - a Industrial / EBM / Dark electro category.

I listen to a lot of VNV Nation, Front Line Assembly, KMFDM, Nitzer Ebb, etc, but this music is difficult to find unless you happen upon someone else's playlist.  Electronic Dance Music (EDM) is the closest thing, but it really is COMPLETELY different than what I listen to.  Can we get a category for the 'darker' side of electronic music?

Hey @XiticiX I think the best place to gain support for this is a new post in the Idea Exchange. As that gains kudos we can pass it on to the teams in charge of Browse. 

 

I also recommend starting a thread in the Genre board to easily meet other users that listen to Industrial/ EDM/ Dark Electro music too. With a community here you can quickly share/ start collaborative playlists. 

Our music genre is not the most popular, but that just means there are a lot of people missing out.

Here is my playlist, you can give a listen and see if there is some new bands for you to check out.

Must not love it enough to follow it right? lol will check your stuff

Yes been a long time since I made this post. I have never stopped updating this playlist with new music that I hand pick. I never spam add songs from albums, it must be something that truley sounds worthy. Been working and listening to this playlist since 2012. We have lost some truely great sounding bands in that time.

Hey! Thought you should add this track to the Dark Electro playlist and your library if you like it! **bleep** playlist by the way!

Hey there @enchanterecords,

thanks for posting in the community !

 

I truly belive that if you wish users posting their interpatation or inputs to the same style of music, the playlist exchange section is the best place to do so.

 

In addition, you should totaly check the ideas section and post your requests or ideas.

 

Hope this helps 😃
