Originally posted by FuzzyGreen By far James Holden is the most innovative. Just take a listen to his essential mix if you doubt that. Everyone else seems to stick to the same 909 drum pattern with minor changes. James Holden's songs use new sounds that you can tell took hours to tweak.

Well said, even though Holden is more prog than trance. I love EVERYTHING I hear by him, how good is I Have Put Out The Light and Kaern?!

as far as innovative, I don't know...I would say PUSH aka M.I.K.E, but it's not as if he really comes up with totally different sounds. He's got that special style, he sticks to it. No doubt, it's VERY GOOD! Chicane is in that category as well.

So I suppose, even though I don't like where he went with some of his tracks, I'll go with Tiesto. He's been at it for ages, and listening to Majik 1 (stinky poo!) and then In My Memory, he's come a long way. When Flight 643 came out, a lot were dissapointed, since it was so different, with that new tech/prog edge. But then it grew, that was a leap for him, and he is still trying out new styles.

This thread is superlong and I wanted to write something now as its kinda late, so I'll just jump into it.
1.BT
By all accounts the man is a musical genius. Doesn't always produce trance, especially lately, but if you really listen to the structuring of songs like godspeed and flaming june the ingenuity is pretty amazing. And Sunblind has AWESOME edits in the builds that give the song so much energy. We'll have to see what he comes up with for his new album this winter.
2.Michael Thomas "Blackwatch"
I guess he really isn't a trance producer, but he has a great ear for making prog powerful and not boring. James Holden also kinda goes in this catagory. Both Northsky and Timeflies I think are badass tracks. Also Holden's remix of Electrique Boutique - Revelation is really cool.
3.Deepsky
Stargazer, View from a Stairway, Remixes of Carl Cox - Phuture 2000, Kaistar, Omar Santana etc. The second you hear one of their songs you know it, which for me is a pretty good sign of skill.
4. Way Out West
I guess there a question about whether this is really "trance"(debatable), but the fact is PvD, Tiesto and a lot of other "trance" DJ's play their stuff, so I'm throwing them in. Always different sounding and sick vocals. And if we are talking about nick warren I guess I could bring up Breeder, who have made some badass tracks(The Chain, Twilo Thunder, remixes of Orbital - Nothing Left, lots of other sick tracks.) Not technically current, but still sounds very different and cool.
I like Ferry and Tiesto, but I don't know if there is the same kind of originality that some of these artists, at least in my mind, have. But, they are very skilled producers who can make songs that people have a great time listening to, which is what countsIMHOAlso goes for PvD and Armin.

i saw a couple of producers i forgot!

WOW = i've heard a couple of there traxx and most of them (with exception their remix of urban train ) are top quality.
G&D = now this couple certainly is one of the best producers/remixers of the year!! every time they come up with an other great tune quite different from the last!! great work..

and now for push, mmm. i know this is just an alias but still i get a strange feeling everytime i hear an push remix! a feeling like: i've heard this before, the sound is unique but sometimes loses it's touch (push's back to cali remix was bad imo!! )

erm.. I never heard anything progressive or techno form him.. which aliases does he use for it? only heard Push, M.I.K.E., Plastic Boy, Solar Factor and Exposure so far.. and they all sound in the very same style. So I wouldn't say he's very innovative although he's brilliant.

tiesto, because of his different sounds & styles in his singles and production. Both are made on a high-level.

calling the freak (check suck my soul) is also an alias from him and it's quite a hardsound, not hardstyle but tech-trance!

he uses far more aliases then most of us know!!
