Industrial Dance 5

It's been awhile since I posted an Industrial Dance pick, but I have more. I do like this genre. Click on the previous ones to see where I was coming from. You will see some doubles in artists, but should be none in songs. I keep a couple of these picks in reserve, so when I get rushed, I have something good to post. Aha, the secret! One day I will post number six. So keep writing down your favorites in the comments and I will add them in. If I like them. Which I probably will. You guys have such great suggestions. Anyway, two covers and a remix in this volume.

Industrial Dance 4

Several more of bands you've already heard in this series, but it's my pick. I'm sure you must have a few of your favorites that I may have left out. Be sure to leave it in the comments. I have enough songs prepared for a couple more volumes, but this is the last one for now. A couple of cool tracks here. Radioactive Goldfish was considered techno, but I lumped them in here. I got records from Cheetah at a record convention (along with Schnitt Acht - who is supposedly just heavy metal). I listened to the albums when I got home and said, wow. Never did get either on CD, so these were from the LP's. The band a;Grumh I found on a CD hunt. Loved them and ended up getting a few more. The fact that they covered Pink Floyd was just bonus. A few of these perhaps are more than just Industrial Dance, but I think they fit anyway. Some are so typical of the genre that no one can argue. Hamburger Lady in it's original form may be more industrial than dance, but with the remix, no doubt that it's danceable.

Industrial Dance 3

I continue the Industrial Dance pick today with older and newer (at least at the time I made this) tracks. A couple of nice remixes and some bands you've already seen before. It's obvious that I like bands like Cabaret Voltaire who I've seen live multiple times. In England as well as in the US. The time I saw them in the UK was pretty cool. Hadn't planned on seeing them, but heard they were in town while I was there. Saw them in a relatively small club in some remote area near London. Called a friend who got me a ticket at the door. Very different type of show compared to the NY venue I saw them in. A little rawer (and smaller club) in the UK, but still as cool as ever. The collaboration between Lustmord and Chris & Cosey (TGT) is one of my favorites. I especially like the Razormaid remix which was not widely available.

42 Portion Control - Raise The Pulse

43 Throbbing Gristle - Adrenalin

Industrial Dance 2

Continuing the Industrial Dance pick series. Here's volume two. As you will probably surmise after a while is: I like this genre. Some borderline songs here. If it wasn't remixed by Adrian Sherwood, I would put Einsturzende Neubauten in the straight industrial category, but Adrian spices it up and makes them a bit more danceable. I really like the Clock DVA (I used another one of their songs as my signature song, when I was on the radio). A few obvious choices in here, but I will mention only My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult (shortened later to Thrill Kill Kult). Their show in San Francisco had to have the most smoke/fog in any show I have ever been to. You could barely make out the band. Just flashes of lights. And I was in the front. More coming.

Industrial Dance 1

Industrial Dance pick is a series of my favorite songs that you would classify as danceable industrial music. It has such a boring title, but it is what it is. Throbbing Gristle, to me is the start of industrial music. But Industrial dance is a little different. Some people call this EBM or Electronic Body Music and I think I even have an old CD that's called Electronic Body Music. Although TG had some industrial dance, it wasn't until Front 242 or Skinny Puppy that it started to gain traction as a "genre". Some of the tracks on this series, may not fit your description, but I just think if it's danceable and industrial sounding, it goes. Enjoy what I chose. Either way it is a great follow up to the Grebo pick of yesterday.

Either way this pick is just what I was playing around that time. Let me know if this was even on your radar or not. What are the songs you were listening to? This is volume 2, so make sure you pick up volume 1 as it will make more sense together.

Wait until you hear both sides of this once cassette and now redone as a playlist pick.

Please Show Membership Card

This is just stuff I was listening to in the mid-nineties. No connection except that. Seems to be mostly Industrial Dance. I made a lot of cassette tapes around that time. This pick is a higher quality recreation of one of them. The local club near me, that I liked to go to had a special membership card for regulars. I probably still have it somewhere, but that's what the title refers to. Not that the club played all this music, they didn't, some perhaps, but not most of this. Although I probably wished they did.
