How do i find these techno songs? Looking for electronic music in several places is a good way to find new music, even from artists no one has heard of before. The best rules to follow is simply use your ears, don't just go around looking for the "best and hottest techno this year", look in the usual popular places and follow links around then have a listen and keep track of what you like. Also take a look in less popular places and you may find some good stuff made by an amateur or a pro just starting up. Just listen to what they have to offer and you be the judge. You can end up with a very diverse library or music (amateurs sometimes even have free links to high quality mp3s of their tracks). Some places that people commonly look for music are:
myspace music - you can browse the charts, or search by genre, I have had better luck finding good amateur stuff on youtube
youtube.com - simply search by typing in a genre, subgenre or an artist's name, lots of amateur tracks uploaded straight by the creator too
soundcloud.com - my favorite, lots of stuff gettig uploaded on here even before thetrack is officialy completed, lots of disscussion, and ALOT OF FREE MUSIC
last.fm - good site for all types of music, can show you new artists based on stuff you already like
real life - when you hear a good tune, ask someone what it is, if you are a friend of a friend who makes music or DJs, ask for some tracks or recomendations
KEEP YOUR EARS OPEN!
