I'm starting to really enjoy dance/techno/house type music when I'm working, but having it in an album format with individual tracks that don't really flow together kind of kills it for me. What I'm looking for is where the music is continuous and tied together between tracks for a few hours like it would be if you were listening live.

In terms of the type of music, not even really sure what you'd call it genre wise, but I like Swedish House Mafia, David Guetta, some stuff by Calvin Harris, etc. I'm not terribly familiar with other artists in these genres.

Can albums like this even be purchased? I'm hoping to load up my iPhone for work.

All of Dash Berlin albums are pretty good.

If you are into trance, A State of Trance 1-590+ should keep you busy.

I'd personally just go with listening to all the different podcasts, my personal fav is hardwell on air.

check out sheepymixes on youtube.

also check out internet radio if you're not opposed to the odd interruption by the mc or whatever. I'm a big fan of di.fm for general stuff. soma.fm is also good. I really like bassdrive.com and dubstep.fm but those probably aren't your thing.... yet :P

Podcasts... just search them through iTunes! there are thousands all for free.. most big DJ's have shows.


Soundcloud App is also bomb. just search for mixes/DJ's on there.

Well sounds like you need a DJ to mix your tracks together. Or download podcasts/listen to internet radio.

You can also get gapless playback with most Apple ipods/iphones along with crossfade feature.

EDIT: Download the Electric Zoo 2012 set. All kinds of good electronic music was played. Have listened to all of the sets multiple times now.

The genre you like is House, and the albums you are searching for are called DJ Sets.

Podcasts are also good. If you just go on itunes and search some of the DJ's you like, there is a high chance they do a weekly radio where they put up a short set.

If not, you can search up DJ sets at so and so event like, for example "Swedish House Mafia EDC set"

I am a fan of Tiesto's podcast. Hour long, many good tunes, and all played at the same beat.
