I'm not big on dubstep either. I love hooping to Tobacco.. I only have the album Fucked Up Friends but I like it a lot.. here's a song from it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2Hny69o-wk&feature=relmfu

and another one I like: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-b1cALCnUs&feature=relmfu

The album "Soulful Filling" by General Fuzz is also some cool not-dubby electronica.. kinda more laid back but I like it for practicing flow. here's a song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RgsXxf9_LBI&feature=related

I find that I hope well to any music that I really love and can just really get into.. hope that helps some :)

I love hooping to stuff like Pendulum (check the song "Under the Waves") and less 'hoopy' stuff like Dragonette. My favorite by them right now is "My Things".

I tend to skip dubstep too. Too much noise, not enough music for me. I also sometimes hoop to hip-hop just to mix things up. I've found I can pretty much hoop to anything with a steady beat.

I feel ya on this!

Recently I made a Pandora station with the following artists (Rodrigo Y Gabriela, Shpongle, Consider the Source, Gorgol Bodello, Toubab Krewe) - it's really fun! Check it out if you like worldly sounding dance music.

Funk is a lot of fun to hoop to, as well - The New Mastersounds / Lettuce are two fun examples.

Improv music always keeps me moving, Lucky Costello never gives me a second to think - I just react.

Electronic music covers a lot of ground. speaking for the geezers, i recommend Daft Punk, Orbital, Art of Noise, Kraftwerk, you could go back to 80s New Wave, unless you're trying to avoid lyrics, of course.

I'm not a big fan of dubstep either, unless it's chillstep *_* i suggest: Gladkill, an-ten-nae (more glitch-hop-ish), aquadrop, pretty lights, emancipator, flying lotus, glitch mob. Not really electronica but some of my favorites :)

One of my personal favorites would have to be Aphex Twin. He's been around for quite a while so you'll find a lot of material. This is one of my favorite albums to hoop to Selected Ambient Works 85-92

Track N Field - Something in the Air

Tycho - Dictaphone's Lament

After being all about dubstep for about a year I've pretty much completely gotten over it and can't stand it anymore much either. Here's some of who I jam to:

Buckethead; Animals as Leaders (instrumental)

Rebelution; Aaron Kamm and the One Drops; The Expendables (reggae)

DubFX (loop artist)

Kuba; Lotus
