The Postal Service -- mind-numbing electronic-pop / indie pop. I'm sure you've heard "Such Great Heights" (okay... maybe... but that's the one that placed them on the charts in the US). Listen to their album: Give Up. Unfortunately, that's the only album to date since this is a side-project.

Owl City -- influenced by The Postal Service. More of a synth-pop / indietronica sound. If you like "Fireflies", you will like his albums. I suggest these two albums: Maybe I'm Dreaming and Ocean Eyes.

The Notwist -- try their later albums... I believe they started off as a hardcore punk band but became more indie / electronica starting in 1998. Their album: Neon Golden is pretty good... I remembered listening to "This Room" on repeat for a good month or so... but "Pilot" is good too.


Death Cab for Cutie -- this is more like indie rock... but has the same vocalist from The Postal Service. Try downloading their album: Plans... this has a more... pop-ish / electronica beat. The song off the top of my head is "Brothers on a Hotel Bed".


As mentioned by @Dr. Love, Clazziquai has a pretty interesting genre mix... like... jazzy electronic pop... There's one album of theirs in particular that has more of an electronic pop theme... I think it was their remix album: ZBAM. "Come to Me" (Mellotron Remix) I think is a good example of this album's sample...

Hope this helped! Those are the major bands on my iPod that give me the "electronica" feel since my definition of "electronica" may be off...

edit: Oh yeah... I second Goldfrapp -- she's definitely electronica/pop.

Not so long ago I had a happy chance to be on a dub/dubstep gig. Dub is good but not for five hours(.
Anyway I highly recommend Kryptic Minds. Deep, with spiritual moments here and there. This one is my favorite.
And Jazzsteppa. The name is pretty self-explanatory.

I am all about listening to Burial, Skream, Benga, Starkey, Kode9, Space Ape. I like listening to Dubstep there is some good music coming from that genre.

I prefer bubblegum dance over this so-called electronic music dubstep.

Deadmau5 is pretty good for electronic stuff. in terms of dubstep, i would just search dubstep on youtube and see what you like. in terms of recommendations i would look into Skrillex (First of the Year and Hey Sexy Lady two of my favs), Klaypex, Mord Fustang, Bassnector (or Bassnectar, cant remember), Flux Pavilion (great dubstep remix of some song called Louder with Doctor P).
