Hello fellow producers! Who would you say is a producer's producer? I would definitely have to give it to Robert Babicz. That guy's songs have the holy trinity of being loud, clear, and dynamic. He also makes great arrangements and is overall a great songwriter.
I'm just curious to see who you guys respect as producers. Yes, these threads pop up every other month, but whatever. |

Quincy Jones.
regarding your pick
good producer , but there is nothing about him that you could say , huh , never heard that anywhere else before. I think that is a kinda important. He is good, but unnecessary. Making good mixes, cool arrangements for a track that is alright is not enough for me. THe litmus test for me is, if this guy was dead, would anyone notice. Not really. Some other person that makes pretty good tracks that don't stand out would take his place.

Yeah, it's pretty hard to argue against a guy like Quincy Jones. Personally, I think a "producer's producer" should be pretty well-rounded, rather than a specialist in one relatively small niche. So, even though they may not have household names, I think of Bill Leeb and Rhys Fulber (Frontline Assembly, Delerium, Conjure One, Noise Unit, Synaesthesia, Equinox, Pro-Tech, etc.) as being two of the most notable electronica producers simply because they cover so much range so well and have had long successful careers working with many excellent artists. |

i suppose ill say bt. hes creative, a really good musician, and has good synthesis / sound design skills. im not a fan of a lot of his work but that doesn't mean i don't think hes very skilled. There are a lot of producers that i consider 'masters' but i wont name though because of subjective reasoning. no just kidding, i definitely mean scot project. |

You worked probably appreciate him a lot more if your exposure to production preceded the mid 2000. The problem is that you just don't really know dance music. You only see things from the year 2010. Mozarts music is considered pretty ing basic. Wagner makes him look incompetent. But Wagner was on the shoulders of giants. And yes, scot project was is extremely influential. Every trance producer around that was releaseng prior to 2000 knows who he is, and will express that he is one of the few great producers. Not one. The only difference is that all those other guys started making very palettable trance that was esy to sell while scot project was always doing his own thing.
H is a great producer among many. He contributed a genre. I think that ain't bad. Most of the hardstyle guys pretty much did what he was doing and added hardcore elements. So 2 genres if you want to be picky. Is he the current torch bearer? No but he his the kind of producer that well for example, will never use a loop. Won't catch him using nexus. Most of the leads were pioneered by him. Every track is a unique composition, he doesn't recycle, and I think he has integrity.
But people like you will dismiss any genre you dont like. The same kind of person that will not say hear skillex and noisia and the innovatios they did despite it all going to . You need to step back and be a little more objective.
