Electronic Bridge
Elwood, Tracker/Demoscene, The Prodigy
The Prodigy - an electronic band disguised as a punkband. They grabbed me with the aggression but converted me with atmospheric gems like Narayan and Climbatize.
Trance
Beetseekers, Orkidea, Way Out West, Paul van Dyk, BT, Humate, Solarstone, Slusnik Luna, ATB, Ferry Corsten
The initial melodic pull of ATB and Ferry Corsten got me hooked, but the hypnotic atmospheric and sophisticated sound of Orkidea and others made this my life
Melodic Death Metal
Children of Bodom, In Flames, Omnium Gatherum, Insomnium, Arch Enemy
What once sounded frightening, some how turned into beautiful and calming. They maybe aggressive and loud at times, but the beauty of the melody is what lives in the core of them all
