Just got back from doing some statistics on the "Trance/Club track that everyone MUST HAVE :-)"-discussion (yes, I *do* need a life), and found out that over 15% of all the tracks that was suggested as being indispensable was (partly) produced by "the modern Mozart" Mauro Picotto.
Then the big question is: Why am I the only one that keep praising him in these topics, where Tiesto, Armin van Buuren and Vincent De Moor appearently seem to rule the popular vote????

I don't know... Maybe we just have alot of holland natives frequent here to promote their exports?
Or perhaps, there isn't that much exposure of Mauro and co.. I still haven't found a live mix set yet, anyone? DJs that occasionally produce are more famous than producers who occasionally dj. So it seems.

Haha.... I like Tiesto doesn't mean I don't regard Picotto as my fav. He is my fav producer, continuosly producing excellent quality, hard pounding Trance/ Techno (whatever you call it...) totally creating a trademark out of its own...
I even got the Picotto LP as my B-day present from my bro. How good does it gets??!! LOL

Picotto is definately one of my favourite producers...
For all you guys who love Picotto should check out DJ Networx. He's got a new CD out and please try to locate it, listen to the tracks......
Cheers

yeah Picotto is SO damn good ! I'd go as far as saying he is my fave producer ever.... I have near enough every production remix and collaboration of his on vinyl and I am a massive fan.....

Hehe, I was joking, Doombringer.. but yeah, so does anyone have a live mix or something longer than a track by Mauro? Does such a beast exist?
Oh, with a name like Doombringer, shouldn't you be kicking holes in the speakers at Rotterdam Thunderdome or something? hahaha j/k.
