Oh, we got it. It's just that it wasn't funny one bit. |

I would say Paul Oakenfold and that has nothing to do with the fact that I work with him. His sound then was so original and unique. He really cut through the genericness of "trance" and brung it. People are still trying to ID tracks from his sets from a decade ago.
I still think 1998-2001 for him was absolute tops.
Second is Sasha 1997-2001, basically San Fran GU to Ibiza GU. Again, I feel he really defined what progressive-trance is. He brought the emotion and lushness of trance to the underground and made it heady.
Third is Dave Ralph, same period, 2001 ish. for the same reason. He might not have gotten the same recognition as Sasha but Tranceport 2 was absolutely incredible, one for the tracks/programming and two because of the time period. He and Sasha had, for me, the greatest sound ever during that period. To this day Tranceport 2 Disc 1 is my all time favorites mix.
btw... great question. Hopefully trolls wont fill it up with BS. Would love to read further. |

I thought we were talking about productions only? For DJing, yea Oakey and Sasha were probably the best but purely on productions I don't see how anyone in EDM was better than Chicane at his peak. |
