If you dig that stuff, you should definitely check out what John 'OO' Fleming is putting out these days. His Essential Mixes are absolute quality, and he's also got a monthly podcast that you can get on iTunes that is very addictive.

Thanks for the tip; I'll give it a listen. OO has been at it a LONG time as well--definitely listened to him back in the day as well.

Sasha, Oakenfold, and Ferry Corsten around the 1999 - 2002 timeframe were my soundtrack. Some really great anthems from those days!

Digweed and Carl Cox still tear it up. Specifically Carl, damn that guy is a legend.

Agreed. Sasha's February 27, 2000, Essential Mix is a classic. There are no fancy cuts back and forth, no ADHD mixing, it's just a fairly small number of well picked, well mixed tracks.

So true - Paul Van Dyk was my gateway into the whole EDM genre.

After that it was Tiesto and Van Buuren.

Nu NRG is also good.

Armin Van Buren. He's been around awhile and still cranks out bangers consistently.
