top producer of 2004??

[anx]

my vote goes to Patrick Skoog, for obvious reasons

but i would have to say that Ant has been so consistant with his london/acid style that he is a real close call.

Hertz is also blowing my socks off this year too.


who do you think is up there??

[ShaunT]

Hi,

I couldn't pick one - but D.A.V.E The drummer/Henry Cullen is my fave producer and has continued to be so this year. Valentino Kanzyani has been awesome as has Hertz - so I'd go for those 3 - quality tune after quality tune from them all.

[Jay Sanders]

Id have to Say Skoog aswell, no faulting him this year.... also someone whos work i love is Dustin Zahn, got a real nice sound.

For Acid / London its got to be Alex Calver and Dave The Drummer.

[Jimfish]

ooh, yeah love patrik but we all know hes the nuts..
im digging kowalski, joris voorn, funk d void and a lot of those sort of guys.. i couldnt really say who is best..
I think we have a future hero on this board (if techno has a future that is) in the shape of david f (audioinjection)..
And thats not just boa cocksucking i do actually believe that ;)

[penthesilea]

I vote for ant and D.A.V.E !!!!
But must say haven't heard much of the other guys you mention so not that objective ;)
Like Kowalski too...

What about that Joris Voorn? Where can I hear some of his stuff?

[Sunil]

Tony Rohr, Damon Vallero and Oliver Ho. Dustin Zahn and Ian Lehman made a good start too.

I'll have to agree I believe David is hot shit!

dont buy much techno nowadays....but the stuff i've heard from Sandy Warez these last couple of months that have blew me away and made me realise I need to start buying more!

[The Overfiend]

The Heat Makers

[dirty_bass]

I can`t really say anyone has stood out for me.
There has been a lot of really good tracks.
But no-one has been consistantly amazing this year.

[Adverse]

you have.

[The Overfiend]

Hmmmmm,
I stand objective.
But yeah Steve. This year you've been pulling rabbits out of hats.
Consistently.

[dirty_bass]

Actually, thinking again, I would say luka bauman.
His productions always impress me.

And for sheer developement, Mr Lugo.

but in terms of vinyl that I have bought.
Unlike most years, there has been no producer or label I have consistently purchased.

[recoil]

DJ Preach
Hertz
Lars Klein

[karlo]

luka baumann and patrik skoog!

[gary_human]

Patrik Skoog

Secret Cinema

Fernando/Black Jackal etc.

Andrew Wooden

Dean Rodell

and Dirty Bass' stuff has sounded pretty awesome through this site - only it aint all on record yet.

[Sunil]

ahem.

Well y'know I kind of forgot that in my earlier post... Gunjack was on fire this year, there was nothing I got that I didn't like :rambo:
Takaaki (despite all the criticism) was top notch as well :clap:

[andy james]

And for sheer developement, Mr Lugo.


i second that!!! :cool: :clap:

[Ginjin]

I have three top techno proddys and picking a top one out of these three for me is hard as they have all had a solid consistant year...but when push comes to shove...

Patrick Skoog
Hertz
Lars klien

[steelgrooves]

Cant settle on just one here.. All these guys have thier own sound..and all thier tracks work well across the board.

Keep rockin the trax fellas.

Patrik Skoog
Eric Sneo
Dave the Drummer
Valentino Kanzyani

neptunes (because they could buy and sell all of us)

yeah, I thought about them too..

but then again, Lil Jon made really big impact this year with his hard, distorted crunk stuff..
