Laidback - Internacional (1997)

In a previous post I said I didn`t like techno that much and the same happens with its closely related styles.

But it doesn`t mean I don`t like electronic music. In fact I really appreciate some kinds of "emusic" and I`d like to share some information about one of my favorite electronic & dance music (sub)genres, the BIG BEAT!

You can easily get more infos clicking "big beat" above or doing a fast google search. In a few words it`s probably the funkest, the rockest and the housest style that has ever existed in breakbeat scene. Given its hybridisation, eclecticism and experimentalism it`s not much easy to describe it, so in order to have a better idea of what it`s all about, a few names of big beat producers may help. The roster includes The Chemical Brothers, The Crystal Method, Daft Punk, Fatboy Slim, Groove Armada, The Prodigy, Propellerheads and many others..

?!?! Maybe some are surprised for recognizing some names and still ain`t got any idea of what the hell big beat is. So a little appreciation (yes, I think you`ll appreciate it!) can help too.


I don`t know much about Laidback but in this album you may get connected with good tunes from a moment in which Big Beat scene was flourishing.
