I’ve always really enjoyed this Sam Prekop/Archer Prewitt live set. It’s a shame they didn’t release more together.
Fucking love pitchshifter, saw them a bunch of times. So much so that I’m one of the sweaty hands on the back cover of Deviant.
Also, their guitarist Jim Davies was guitarist with the Prodigy for a long time and came up with the riff for Firestarter.
At some point guitar and electronic music hits Industrial immediately.
Never knew that but it makes perfect sense!
Oldies but goodies:
Rinocerose made it work very well.
I’ve really respected Front 242’s approach to guitar, more of a textural element that’s so processed it’s hard to distinguish from synths… but it’s there.
Some awesome guitar (and live bass) on the new Wolfgang Press album:
Always loved Underworld’s tasteful guitarwork as well.
i saw tangerine dream last year and they had a special guest … it was almost ‘guitar solo’ , but it was a bloke with a spoon on a string device thing…
i nearly left, it was horrendous… he was famous apparently… utter bilge…
i quite like what underworld do but its a little more acoustic side of things rather than big upfront guitars (which i typically avoid).
i dont mind some bass guitar either , something like bug powder dust dubby basslines.
the most ‘rock’ guitar i go for are nine inch nails electronic side of things…
I’m a big fan of Mk.Gee. He’s running his guitar through a synth pedal at times, getting some really interesting textures. The production is also super measured and well done. Very very referential to the 80s but not the big pop side of it.
I must look this up! Barbican Hall?
Back to the topic, I’m thinking slightly askew towards Mick Gordon, who set up pretty simple waveforms through a small network of pedals to craft the Doom Eternal soundtrack.
All electronics, no guitars!
Adrian Utley (Portishead) is a big influence for me. He sneaks onto Goldfrapp albums, too.

It’s on YouTube I think.
Rock music with electronic elements works sometimes.
Electronic music with rock elements rarely works.
Ah! Nick Beggs w/Chapman Stick then.
Sort of guitar with electronics then!

Bit of a stretch this, but not that distant from Bob Moses. Guitars with samplers and drum machines in sparse edm-influenced arrangements.
It can certainly go very wrong very easily.
And done wrong dance/guitar music is about as bad as it gets.
