Seeing that I am an 'Ole cuss' this is not electronic music. But Since it's November this came to mind. John, You could say that the electric guitar in the song is electronic John. And quite a nice song it is. Good singer and good music. Cheers, Pieter

FROM THE ALBUM "THE CHIEF" (1989).Tony ScottPeter van den Bosch (born 2 October 1971), better known as Tony Scott, is a Dutch rapper and musician of Surinamese descent. He became internationally known for his hip house music.
Tony Scott is a Kalina Amerindian who was born in Diitabiki, Suriname. The Kalina, also known as the Caribs, mainland Caribs and several other names, are an indigenous people native to the northern coastal areas of South America. Today, the Kalina live largely in villages on the rivers and coasts of Venezuela, Guyana, Suriname, French Guiana, and Brazil. Indigenous peoples in Suriname, or Amerindian Surinamese, are Surinamese people who are of indigenous ancestry. They comprise approximately 3.8% of Suriname's population of 566,846.
Tony Scott immigrated with his parents to Amsterdam, Netherlands at a young age. As a thirteen-year-old, he became a member of an electric boogie crew, followed by joining the beatboxing group 2-Tuff E-nuff. After he had rapped in a jingle for the radio station where his brother was working, the 16-year-old Scott was offered a contract by the owner of the Dutch record label Rhythm. His first single that was released was "Pick Up the Pieces", a remake cover of the Average White Band song. Even though the single did not become a commercial success, it ensured that he could perform a lot.
In 1989, he released his next single, a double A-side with the songs "That's How I'm Living" and "The Chief". The latter song was written as an ode to his indigenous Kalina heritage. The single was a success in the Netherlands, but also received attention in the United Kingdom and the United States. In the same year, he released his first album The Chief, with his regular producer Fabian Lenssen. The album was released as That's How I'm Living in the United States, because he was better known for that song with the same name. It contained twelve hip house/hardcore rap tracks.
In 1990, Scott released the single "Get Into It", which became his most successful song. He was invited to perform at the New Music Seminar in New York. Even before his trip to this music fair, the rapper had another hit, "Gangster Boogie". In the same year, he released the single "Move to the Big Band" with Ben Liebrand.
Afterwards, Scott released several singles and changed his sound numerous times, but none of his products equaled the success of the first few singles. In 1991, he released his second album Expressions from the Soul and his third album Chameleon was released in 1993. In 1994, Scott and Fabian Lenssen wrote the single "Gangsterdam" for the Dutch children's choir Kinderen voor Kinderen. In 1996, he released a theme song for the American football team Amsterdam Admirals.
In 2000, Scott became a music teacher in Amsterdam. In 2015, he was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis.

Pieter
Thank you for thinking of me with the music of snap. Most likely I should not admit this, but this music is good to listen whilst forgetting the day and concentrating on cleaning the flat. But first things first, get out of the chair of which I am hiding from the day, turn on the music, let it play for a bit to get the rhythm and start with cleaning out the dirty dishes to then place in to the dishmachinewasher {Spülmaschine}. Mop the floor with a good sanitizer and detergent mix and all the time to let the music set the rhythm of work, start then on the living room to work then in to the bedroom with change out of bedding.
Very seldom to have any visitors for it is just my self to see how the flat looks like all week with exception of making the bed up each morning.
Thank you once again
Karl

Yeah, I'm losing my edge. I'm losing my edge. The kids are coming up from behind. I'm losing my edge. I'm losing my edge to the kids from France and from London. But I was there. I was there in 1968. I was there at the first Can show in Cologne. I'm losing my edge. I'm losing my edge to the kids whose footsteps I hear when they get on the decks. I'm losing my edge to the Internet seekers who can tell me every member of every good group from 1962 to 1978. I'm losing my edge. To all the kids in Tokyo and Berlin. I'm losing my edge to the art-school Brooklynites in little jackets and borrowed nostalgia for the unremembered eighties. But I'm losing my edge. I'm losing my edge, but I was there. I was there. But I was there. I'm losing my edge. I'm losing my edge. I can hear the footsteps every night on the decks. But I was there. I was there in 1974 at the first Suicide practices in a loft in New York City. I was working on the organ sounds with much patience. I was there when Captain Beefheart started up his first band. I told him, "Don't do it that way. You'll never make a dime." I was there. I was the first guy playing Daft Punk to the rock kids. I played it at CBGB's. Everybody thought I was crazy. We all know. I was there. I was there. I've never been wrong. I used to work in the record store. I had everything before anyone. I was there in the Paradise Garage DJ booth with Larry Levan. I was there in Jamaica during the great sound clashes. I woke up naked on the beach in Ibiza in 1988. But I'm losing my edge to better-looking people with better ideas and more talent. And they're actually really, really nice. I'm losing my edge. I heard you have a compilation of every good song ever done by anybody. Every great song by the Beach Boys. All the underground hits. All the Modern Lovers tracks. I heard you have a vinyl of every Niagra record on German import. I heard that you have a white label of every seminal Detroit techno hit - 1985, '86, '87. I heard that you have a CD compilation of every good '60s cut and another box set from the '70s. I hear you're buying a synthesizer and an arpeggiator and are throwing your computer out the window because you want to make something real. You want to make a Yaz record. I hear that you and your band have sold your guitars and bought turntables. I hear that you and your band have sold your turntables and bought guitars. I hear everybody that you know is more relevant than everybody that I know. But have you seen my records? This Heat, Pere Ubu, Outsiders, Nation of Ulysses, Mars, The Trojans, The Black Dice, Todd Terry, the Germs, Section 25, Althea and Donna, Sexual Harrassment, a-ha, Pere Ubu, Dorothy Ashby, PIL, the Fania All-Stars, the Bar-Kays, the Human League, the Normal, Lou Reed, Scott Walker, Monks, Niagra, Joy Division, Lower 48, the Association, Sun Ra, Scientists, Royal Trux, 10cc, Eric B. and Rakim, Index, Basic Channel, Soulsonic Force ("just hit me"!), Juan Atkins, David Axelrod, Electric Prunes, Gil! Scott! Heron!, the Slits, Faust, Mantronix, Pharaoh Sanders and the Fire Engines, the Swans, the Soft Cell, the Sonics, the Sonics, the Sonics, the Sonics. You don't know what you really want You don't know what you really want You don't know what you really want You don't know what you really want You don't know what you really want You don't know what you really want You don't know what you really want You don't know what you really want You don't know what you really want You don't know what you really want You don't know what you really want You don't know what you really want You don't know what you really want You don't know what you really want You don't know what you really want

Sebastian Mullaert and Markus Henriksson of Minilogue invited us to visit them at their studio, in the pristine Swedish countryside outside Malmö, to get an insight into their collaboration and studio craft. See how the two artists confront their thoughts and emotions, before entering a immersive state for the studio jams from which their releases are harvested.

Guilherme BorattoGuilherme Boratto (born 1974 in São Paulo) is a Brazilian electronic music producer. In the 1990s, he was a member of Sect.
His debut solo album Chromophobia was awarded the title of Mixmag Album of the Month. Regarding why he chose the name Chromophobia, Boratto said: "The same meaning as monochromatism in architecture, which means simplicity. That’s all. I don’t have a morbid fear of colors at all. But also, I was ironic. My music is really colorful."
He owns the record label D.O.C., distributed by Kompakt. The first artist he signed was the Brazilian electronic duo Elekfantz.
On stage, Boratto uses a laptop equipped with Ableton Live, a JazzMutant Lemur, a monome and an Akai APC40. He sometimes invites a guitar player to join him.
