Yes you are 100% right that they are more important than the dj themselves.

The biggest problem is that most producers do not have long careers, and there are too many one hit wonders. Its part of the 'problem' of the industry, and I think that's why DJs are so big.

A DJs career can last a lot longer becaues it's easier to play music than make it.

They should be! Most DJ play over 95% of track that where produce by another guy !
Someone should start one or ask DJmag to incoporate one on the next top 100 DJ pool.

It wouldn't be too different than a dj poll, because most of my favourite deejays happen to be producers as well...but it would be interesting to see some of the names listed if one existed.

i think thats a little too big of a list to compile imo. maybe a top25 or 50 max, think about it..... dj to producer ratio must be something rediculous like 20/1.

There is no top 100 producers poll because people would have to know something about music to answer. Not so with the DJ poll.
