Paul Van Dyk - Words and For An Angel are two tunes that mean a lot to me along with so many others. I have saw him live over many years and have rarely been left dissappointed.
Matt Darey - In the late nineties in terms of remixs, matt was immense. My favourite being, Westbam Vs Red Jerry - Wizards of the Sonic 98. One of my top 3 tunes of all time. Oakie at Creamfields 98, playing this mix............
Ferry Corsten - System F, Moonman and his collaborations, Vimana (all be it 1 tune) Veracocha - Carte Blanche and well it would have to be Gouryella. The man is a Legend.
I know it was two or three but my top favourite:
Push - Dont need to explain, for me, the most consistent trance producer in the last 10 years. Genre defining tunage and for me now, he is better than ever with his Solar Factor and M.I.K.E. productions, tunes i cant get enough of. M.I.K.E, unreal, god like for me. Pure and utter genius. |

Paul Oakenfold, because he was one of the biggest names to push progressive trance and house music in the mid and late 90s. Some of the best essential mixes, and I love his mixed CDs. He really got me into trance DJ mixes, because before him I was mostly just into productions from BT, PvD and a few others.
Sasha and Digweed. Both guys were also big pushers of progressive trance and house in the mid and late 90s as well. I like their Northern Exposure CDs, and how they weaved in trance-ambient music into progressive trance and created a journey of sorts. They were also great on their own, combining progressive trance, progressive house and some funkier stuff as well. |

agree with one of the above posters on pvd and ferry corsten. although ferry has disappointed me in recent times both live and in the studio. last time i saw him i swore never to go back as he played rock your body rock along with all that other he puts out. i thought i was at top of the pops for 2 hours.
pvd has always been immense in the djing front. never let me down with his sets. full on trancers.
agnelli and nelson would be third choice. after the release of el nino i fell in love with their sound and their sets were very good back then. i have a tape of robbie nelson before he even met chris agnelli and it was superb. |

no chance. epic trance gets me hooked. it was cheese that turned me away from trance to house for a year. now that cheese is has been making steps in the house scene i finally got back to my roots.
cheese ruins music not embraces it! |

| Quicksilver is pure bollox, the start of the DJ Sammy era.... Lange came of age from 2000 on for me. |

I was going to post this exact thing. But then I realized it would be redundant, so I'm only quoting it. |
