There is a vibrant electronic music scene in Portland that few know about. Several electronic musicians run the gamut of styles from techno to IDM to ambient to the more popular dub-step and electro-house. As a producer, I have found that, in Portland, people in the scene are really supportive of each other as opposed to other cities. If the listeners of this program want to check out what the EM scene is like, check out the Panzen nights at Rotture or the Kulturszene nights at Branx or Unrecognizable now at Holocene tonight. EM in Portland is not the typical brain-dead music. It's more thoughtful and heady. Maybe its because of the rain and the dark winter.
