“Straight Up Electronica!” is the latest compilation series coming from the Straight Up! Music stables, a music genre encompassing a wide range of contemporary electronic music designed for a wide range of uses, including foreground listening, some forms of dancing, and background music for other activities. Unlike electronic dance music (EDM), not all examples of electronica are necessarily made for dancing. The genre is loosely defined and has different connotations in different regions and time periods.
Electronica has grown to influence mainstream crossover recordings. Electronic sounds began to form the basis of a wide array of popular music in the late 1970s and early 1980s, and became key to the mainstream pop and rock sounds of the 1980s. Since the adoption of “electronica” in the 1990s to refer to more underground music with an electronic aesthetic, elements of modern electronica have been adopted by many popular artists in mainstream music. Many artists such as Daft Punk, Kraftwerk, Aphex Twin, and Depeche Mode are considered electronica.
Today we are very proud to bring you the first volume of this brand new series, packed with 22 tracks that represents the modern sound of Electronica.
Play it loud, enjoy!
