Piano in club music

[ShinRa]

i woulda put this in the music section...if anyone was looking at it lol.

Listen I'm just starting to get into the club/techno/trance scene and I notice that most of the songs I like have piano in it. Does anyone know any songs/artists/albums where there's club/techno/trance with piano in it?

Dont tell me to search limewire and google, im not stupid, i'm looking for specifics please!:cheers:

Richard Cheese FTW.

[ShinRa]

alright richard cheese couldnt be farther from what im looking for. thanks anyway. if it was on purpose, i hate you.

[Glirk Dient]

Well he does have a piano...and he is in a club and yes it was on purpose.

[ShinRa]

please if anyone knows any DJs or artists that mix piano into their club music let me know

[Pressure]

Elton John?

[Majestic XII]

I don't think you will find any piano in Techno since the genre doesn't have any lead synths or piano goes. It's just machine oriented.

Have a listen to some old music from the 90's. "happy hardcore" or whatever they wanted to call their music. They liked to play piano in their songs :)

Are you talking about Itallian House which was about 15 years ago, or something more modern?

[pomegranate]

I think Clubbed To Death by Rob D has piano in it, but I can't check right this moment...
edit: checked. The piano is just in one part. The rest is quite heavy, synthy and dark. Do you want to hear it?

[Reaktor4]

Yeah you wont find pianos in techno but theres plenty in trance. I dont know of many tracks with a piano because i generally think it sounds wank but whatever floats your boat. Check out humate - love stimulation (blank & jones remix) and paul van dyk - for an angel. I dont really like for an angel but theyre both classics.

[Absinthe]

I feel like banging my head into a wall whenever a club song starts in with a piano line, because I thought that cheese died out in the mid-90's.

[ShinRa]

hahha well i didnt expect people to share my warped opinion about this kind of music, but yes i was leaning more towards trance.

[ComradeBadger]

Just search for 'happy hardcore'

:|

[ShinRa]

yeah so let me rephrase my question, im looking for trance music that focuses on piano.

[CrazyHarij]

Hahahahahaha.

I won't even mention the ****ing song, it's too ****ing obvious.

Alright.

Robert miles - children.

[ShinRa]

lol have it already =p

"Flaming June" by BT?

[Doppelgofer]

red carpet - alright (brad carpet remix)

I could get you a whole long list of awesome dance/trance music with piano as the main instrument, but it'd take me about half an hour of looking through my archive... I'll give you a few that I know off the top of my head: -

Voodoo & Serano - Overload (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FKWcOTSVbl0)
State of Grace - Wonder Why (CJ Stone Remix)
CRW feat. Veronika - Walkin' Like A Cat (Tillman Uhrmacher Remix)
Divine Inspiration - The Way (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p0dQNVgTIMw)
Red Carpet - Alright (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pdDKalLR0aI)
Alex Bartlett - My Angel (CJ Stone Remix)
Delerium - Innocente (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aFKKZz9hgtw)
Way Out West - Mindcircus (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-XGsDhoU4eY)
Perpetuous Dreamer - Dust Wave
CJ Stone - Shining Star (Moonrise Vocal Mix)
Hurley & Todd - Sunstorm
Jakatta feat. Seal - My Vision (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KUCbTisT5tU)
Robert Miles - Children (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZT3ToXT89Q)

Layo & Bushwacka Vs. Kings of Tomorrow - Finally a Love Story (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_U7Gx-nsDPQ)

There are some tunes in the list that aren't on youTube but i've stuck some samples together in this mp3 (http://www.pr51.net/pobz/piano.mp3) so you can see if they're what you're after or not. I like tunes that have pianos and orchestras ... I love gouryella and william orbits music for this reason.

Layo & Bushywacka Vs. Kings of Tomorrow - Finally a Love Story (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_U7Gx-nsDPQ)

FTmfkingW

"...vs Love Story", btw.

"...vs Love Story", btw.

vs. Love Story? The original is 'layo & bushwacka - love story' mixed with 'KOT - Finally' to become Finally a Love Story, hence the 'vs. KOT' ... its not on youtube though so I just linked to the original. Both are awesome though :thumbs:

How could I forget this oldskool classic (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qi5d4CVJkrc) :)

[pomegranate]

I'm confused. The original song is called Love Story. The mix with Finally (the released version, anyway) is called Love Story (vs Finally) (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Love-Story-Finally-Layo-Bushwacka/dp/B00007GY4A/sr=8-1/qid=1161472346/ref=sr_1_1/026-5340017-9406806?ie=UTF8&s=music) - and that is definitely what you linked to, not the original. Never heard of any 'Finally A Love Story', unless you're talking about a different mix.

edit: 'k the unreleased version WAS called Finally A Love Story... but the released version (with the vid you linked to) was LS(VsF)...

Never heard of any 'Finally A Love Story', unless you're talking about a different mix.It's a white label, called finally a love story. Maybe it's the whitelabel that started the official release of the more popular love story mix.


Another tune to add to the list up there is 'Angel City - Do You Know (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UjJuYpaH-_o)' ... basically just an uncredited copy of 'Robert Miles - Children' with some cool vocals.

[pomegranate]

Hmmm I would rather like to hear that. But teh intarnets fail me....

[Reaktor4]

How could i forget veracocha - carte blanche (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IacI2ntEGOA).. and while i was on youtube i found the old school love stimulation (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pTEDT-RlhJg) video from 93 (i think)

[lePobz]

Carte Blanche is such a classic tune :D

Heres something a little more upbeat but it has to be one of my all-time favs. Styles & Breeze - You're Shining (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KKJEHQELFP8)

Richard Cheese FTW.

**** yea, richard cheese is the man
