i've compared my top 10 list (there's been quite a few of these), and realized that i change it more often than my underpants. All about my mood.

Michael Kohlbecker, Steve Baltes, Blu Peter, S.M.I.L.E., David Wesson, Sven Van Hees, Pascal Dardoufas, Roland Faber, among others I'm sure to have missed all may very well belong in the list as well.

Im only listing the trance producers that actually produce thier own music (and not have some chump do it for them)...

M.I.K.E
Laurent Veronez
Ferry Corsten (and all his aliases)
David West
Tilt (and all its changing members)
Markus Schulz
Armin Van Buuren (not sure if its him actually producing his tracks)
Steve Murano (probably made some of the most original remixes ive ever heard)
Matt Darey
James Holden

From the top of my head (no order):

Oliver Lieb
Pascal F.E.O.S./Maik Maurice (Resistance D)
Michael Kohlbecker (Eternal Basement)
Pete Namlook
Eat Static
Emmanuel Top
Steffen Britzke/Sven V�th/Ralf Hildenbeutel/Matthias Hoffmann (The Eye Q gang)
Dance 2 Trance
Blue Planet Corp
Influx

Slightly more than 10 in no particular order:

Andy Cato
Laurence Elliot Potter
Johnathan Sutton and Barry Jamieson (Evolution)
Lee Milleare and John Horrocks (Amethyst)
Non Eric
Marc Mitchell
Chris Cowie
Phillipe Van Mullem
Andy Chatterley
Chris Fortier and Neil Kolo (Fade)
Dekkard
Martin Cartledge aka Jay Welsh
Mike Koglin (pre-2000, went to shit after that)

Claudio Giussani
Simon Berry

for Trance has to be Chicane, BT, Ingo Kunzi(Tandu, Ayla), Oliver Lieb, Harald Bl�chel, Humate, The Thrillseekers, Paul van Dyk and i don't know ...
