I find it really really funny that many of you automatically associate being a woman with liking garbage like Bob Sinclair.

Believe it or not, there are way more girls with good musical tastes then those drunken club quims whistling to love generation and flashing their snatches to cellphone cams for drinks.

Sexist bastards

Give her Berghain 02 by Marcel Dettmann or DE9: Closer to the Edit. Also some Seth Troxler stuff.

If she likes rock, then she might like Deep Dish - Flashdance....

It is indeed quite telling that everyone automatically starting suggesting rubbish house music the minute it was revealed that this person was a girl. Complete pisstake.

Pretty much, any Danny Howells em is win. I'd also recommend some Armand, but that's just me.

Yes, but remember we are not simply listing good music, we are helping get someone into edm, and who didn't get to where they are now through more commercial/vocal music first? We almost all did. It's all about the transition.

If it was a guy I would suggest shitty commerical electro music. Not necessarily stuff I like, but stuff to make a transition.

I didn't. I got into electronic music via mid 90s drum n bass, like this one.

You are all suggesting that girls can't possibly "get" the "advanced electronic music" that you listen to on their own, so you suggest utter rubbish as a starting point for them to later gain a "more developed taste". Not only is it a massive stereotype that girls can't start with good electronic music they find on their own, it also presupposes that your tastes are somehow more refined, and that girls can't possibly "get" this "refined" music you people listen to right away.

I dunno about you, but to me, this comes across as quite condescending.

If you're going to recommend Bob fucking Sinclar you may as well not bother at all. Anyone can walk into a supermarket and buy a Ministry of Sound compilation with that **** on. If a friend asked me for recommendations with the knowledge that I know my way around dance music, I would actually think hard to try and recommend some accessible yet accomplished stuff in line with what they currently enjoy.

I wish I'd had a friend who could recommend stuff when I was finding my way in dance music. I wouldn't have about 50 shitty trance compilations featuring only a handful of good tracks clogging up my collection that are a product of learning what had staying power and what was disposable.
