Best Of ‘09: Top 10 Electronic Tracks (URB Contributor Mitch Strashnov) (Video)

An introspective and mind-numbing selection of the best electronic tracks of 2009. 

Anyone who comes to URB should know, we cover an extensive amount of music from every genre and subgenre. Things aren’t always easily to compile in lists, especially putting together “top ten” lists. Now try doing that with the generalization of a genre called “electronic music.” Some people still don’t know what the difference between techno and house is, and of course we’re here to provide the difference.

It wasn’t easy, but it sure as hell was a journey. Welcome to my top ten electronic tracks of the year. Take a seat and crank the speakers to eleven: it’s a doozy of a read.

Hell featuring Bryan Ferry – “U Can Dance” (Video)

I love electronic music producers but what I go crazy for is an EDM artist who can put some pop panache in their output.

Well, Ferry makes …

End of NYC’s Jelly Pool Parties? Learn How to Help

JELLY, the biggest summer event series to hit New York in decades, is in danger of being shut down. The Pool Parties were originally held at McCarren Park Pool and were moved to the East River State Park in 2009. The free concert series started as a regional event but expanded to global recognition in a short period of time.
