so usually for dance stuff you all know i tend to stick with downtempo dubstep/jungle/wonky and some grime. i dont like glitch too much, but i do like boy 8-bit and crystal castles (their early stuff was more or less 8-bit, but now theyre more synthrock, a la M83). though the guys defining these genres are pretty much doomed to fail, so call it what you will. it doesnt really matter anyway.
they call it 8-bit because samples are from gameboys and other late 80s-early 90s video game systems, which used 8-bit computers in them. so thats neat.
