    These days I'm really into techno and techno/rock and stuff like that -- try searching for these songs:

    Thomas Falke "Revolution On The Dance Floor"
    Groove Cutter "My Shooter"
    Control One "Just A Little Bit"
    Ian Carey "Redlight"
    Kevin Weg "Dead Radio"

    I don't usually go for techno but these are sort of like a wierd crossover between rock and techno/trance.

    Most of them I got (LEGALLY) from this list on itunes -- http://electricnation2010.com/tracks

    I'd recommend Banyan for sure. Jazzy/Funk/Fusion supergroup

    Also see if you can find Zion-I's in rainbows remix. It is really good as well.

    Tortoise is another good band also.

    The new Atmosphere album, while being straight hip-hop has a completely different sound than their earlier releases.
    NERDS!

    I already suggested the Japanese group Boris in another thread earlier but might as well put it here too since it seems to fit here also. I suck at describing bands and genres so i'll just quote wikipedia:

    "While most commonly associated with the doom metal and drone metal scenes, Boris are also renowned for their ability to regularly incorporate elements of many musical genres while maintaining an identifiable sound and quality. Boris have explored psychedelic rock, noise, ambient, sludge rock, post-rock, stoner-rock and hardcore punk, along with more conventional, mainstream rock styles."
    Boris are fucking terrific. To the OP, check out "Boris at last - Feedbacker" and "Flood"

    Also try Boredoms. Their front man is Yamatsuka Eye, the vocalist for John Zorn's band Naked City (I think someone already recommended Zorn. He is a massive influence on Patton and Patton has done stuff with Naked City). Boredoms started off as just batshit crazy japanese noise rock but their more recent releases like Super Ae and Vision Creation Newsun are truly beautiful experimental releases. Expect long-ish songs with incredible tribal style rhythms and occasionally noisy but often ambient soundscapes and crazy vocals. If you think Patton is wild, wait til you hear Eye.

    This is the kind of stuff you can expect from Boredoms. They did a gig wit SEVENTY SEVEN drummers.

    Can't hear much music over the drums though :p
