Electronic music from "developing" countries

Most producers we know of are either from what we know as "developed countries", which is quite natural because of their level of industrialisation and access to computers. However, even though there are industrialised developing countries, such as Brazil, Mexico, India and even South Korea, we don't hear much artists coming from such places. I know Brazil is quite famous because of our drum'n'bass, rio funk and techno scenes, and Hernan Cattaneo (from Argentina) achieved some popularity as well, but that's it. In most cases, either you have Europeans or North American producers in developing countries (such as "Technasia" or all those goa hippies) or you have people from developing countries based in Europe or North America (Deep Dish and Asian Dub Foundation)

My question is: Does anyone know of other producers from developing countries? Are they famous? Do they have an unique sound or are they merely copycats? I'm looking for some fresh sound.

there's Parlange from Mexico, along with Fa:se, Sussie 4, and the whole Nopalbeat crew.
Greece has got a few recent ones, but i guess they're far more developed, as is Sweden.
there were a few that surfaced from Egypt..Aly & Fila?
Israel also has..Hydroid. the Black Dragon crew.
forgot where Tkac and Haverlik are from.
Tadi & nV are from Shanghai, China

i'm pretty sure there a lot in mexico, but the rampant pircacy (i think 3rd worst in the world) has a really negative effect on them. i look in my collection soon and see if i have any names.

well if you mentioned turkish dudes(though i believe it's a developed country),i have to mention the prog dudes from greece like g-pal,nikola gala,dousk,Chris Nemmo,andrew K,jose zamora,kosmas epsilon and others.

and of course there's SATOSHI TOMIIE from japan.

now about israel...
of course you can mention our big psy scene with all it's famous artists.
but you're forgetting many others.
how about Robert Gitelman and Jaron aka G&M Project, or Shmuel Flash how makes solo prog\electro tracks and he's also a part of the massive Flash brothers(amen).
Hydroid is also from israel...
and also Raz Nitsan,the manager of Fundemental rec. who takes part in the Solid Globe project and also wrote many track with artists like ferry corsten and armin van buuren
shmuel&choopi are israeli. Moshic is israeli
and there are a few more...
