Junkie XL

Most of that list should be removed from any self-respecting "best EDM producers" list. Kosmas Epsilon? Jesus Christ.

quivver!

Posted by wotyzoid on Mar-22-2008 17:06:

Thomas Bangalter, Guy-Man, BT, Juergens, Marco Carola, Adam Beyer, Timewriter, Jeff Bennett, The Crystal Method, Chemical Brothers, Vibrasphere......like seriously..

Added? That would be a huge list, but here are some legends that deserve a thread about their best works:
Derrick, Juan & Kevin, Beltram, Laurent Garnier
Marshall Jefferson, Farley "Jackmaster" Funk, Steve "Silk" Hurley, DJ Pierre
Cosmic Baby, Maik Maurice, Pascal FEOS, Pete Namlook, Mijk Van Dijk, Sven Vath, Schallbau (Hoffmann, Hildenbeutel, Britzke)
and many others...

Which deserve to be removed? Well, everyone except Oliver Lieb

Posted by keithos27 on Mar-22-2008 18:24:

Oh and Armin Van Buuren naturally...

Kosmas Epsilon had some AMAZING tracks in the post-00s second rise of progressive house.

Right. So if you were to name 19 (?) producers as the best EDM has to offer, you'd name him?

Depends on the timescale. If i was to name the 19 best EDM producers EVER, obviously not, but if i was to name the 19 EDM producers that got big after 2000 i could possibly mention him. Ofcourse, in the current case most of the producers are quite old so i don't really know...(although i somehow get the feeling that the threadstarter mentioned EDM producers which were active and "Strong" in recent years despite the fact that some of them produce from 91).

a list without Chicane, Hybrid, Orbital, BT, John Digweed and Underworld is useless.

What has Digweed produced? Unless you are talking about "Bedrock" woth Nick Muir.

Cue the "what about the obscure producer that only I listen to, they should be on that shitty list instead of the pooptastic cheese chefs already mentioned" elitists... oh, wait, I'm too late.

/flame on

It's just a shit list. It's entirely concerned with trance/prog producers, whether it focuses on post-2000 or not. Just another attempt by somebody to make their personal tastes sound definitive by dressing them up with the popularity vote and a pseudo-comprehensive sheen.

boo hoo

It's a personal opinion about EDM, instead of being so negative about it and getting your underwear stuck in your asstunnel, why don't you educated the original poster constructively, instead of complaining about it?

Yeah ok, although i somehow get a strange feeling that these tracks are more of Nick Muir rather than John Digweed...

Maybe.

Muir does lots of remix work on his own, but Digweed never releases any tracks without Muir in the credits (as far as I know).

Apparently Muir was successful as a session musician before he started making electronic music, so you know he's got skills.
