What is the best techno DJ??

those dj's play at clubs. what kind of "techno" do you like? house? trance? drum and bass? rnb? two step/garage? hard house? techno? breaks? take your pick.
 
check this site www.ishkur.com and on the left hand column click on the iskur's guide to electronic music

the descriptions for the genres should be taken with a grain of salt as some of them are intentionally way off... but the sound clips matched to the genres/subgenres match perfectly.

one.
 
DJ trashy? who the fuck is that. Are you being sarcastic.

We've been through this before but Tenaglia is hard to go past. Depends on your taste.

they're looking for Emjay on this site ? lol She lives 2 blocks from me 4 months a year (the rest in Ottawa)... Very nice person btw.
 
Trashy is probably some local radio/club DJ that he heard and likes. I hate when people refer to anything electronic as "techno"...
Anyway, here's my list:

Techno: Marco V, Psycho Bitch (local chicago DJ), Mauro Picotto
Trance: Paul Van Dyk, Tiesto, Armin Van Buuren
Progressive (house/trance): Sasha, Paul Oakenfold, Steve Lawler, Pete Gooding, John Digweed
Club (house/trance/tech): Judge Jules, DJ Jean
DnB: Panacea, Dara, Deiselboy
Hardcore: Delta 9
House: Danny Tenaglia

I'm probably leaving out some of my fav DJs that I just aren't commin into my head right now.

I hate it when people dissect the shit out of everything. I was listening to dance music or 'Electronica' in 1987, when it was just called dance music. Now someone produces a slightly different sound and everyone labels it with a new term. It's all dance music. That's why the scene has faltered, because it has splintered off into various guises and everyone slags off the different genres.

Who cares, as long as it's not Bruce Springstein or that grunge rock crap that's so big these days. if it has a beat and you can dance to it, then it's dance music, whether it's techno, Drum and Bass, acid, psy trance, house, progressive, whatever.
 
I tend to disagree with that because music in general is dance music, and in order make someone understand what you are talking bout at the moment, you do have to come up with a a genre, but when it comes to subgenres, that shit is just lame. when I hear someone say dance music, I think of lame dance music that is played at the gym or at rosarito beach on spring break, not quality underground house or dnb, know what I mean?
 
thank you people's champ..at least I know one person on here knows what techno is.

out of the 10 years I have been hearing dj's, the best techno performers LIVE would have to be Jeff Mills and Jay Denham.
 
seriously jilly. I actually am still trying to get in to the real techno scene, but there isn't a following here in san diego, which makes it a little more difficult. and, I only have one techno cd, which is richie hawtin's closer to the edit, but i have j holden's fear of a silver planet on mp3 which is good. could recommend anything along the lines of richie or any of his earlier releases that are like closer to the edit? minimal at its best. sometimes I am in the mood for just a drum machine and a sample here or there...
 
By the sounds of these replys you are all wana bs who have no clue. All you do is name big names tiesto and danny if thats all you know get a life and realize you know nothing.
 
Alright, let's get this settled; JP is given waaaay too much credit however he's got 2 awesome re-mixes I respect: Madonna's Like a Prayer and Sunshine in. Tenaglia is just too transy for me, it's all up to taste. That's electronic music for ya, it's all up to what kinda sound you're looking for. As far as I'm concerned, the one who has found my kind of sound is STEVE LAWLER the very best of all. If you like those tribal and bass sounds, you'll love him. My favorite:

The Biggest Thing in Detroit.
 
Jonathan Peters sucks, he doesnt do his productions and he is over rated, not even ranked on a national level or out of NY.

I love JP, but i have to agree with you on the credit thing. Most of his shit is done by Bush and Heinz. His good shit anyway. Also you can give him credit for Let the sunshine but not like a prayer. Thats all JIM HEINZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

By the way like a prayer was, is and always will be ridiculous. My favorite club song of all time. I still get the chills when i hear it.:D

Just because he isnt ranked on a National Level, why does that mean he sucks??? I think that is ignorance speaking. I mean if you dont like his style thats one thing, but to say he sucks is ignorant. Hes a god in NYC, why would he want to travel all over the world and campaign and advertise and shit just to become a worldly DJ. :confused:

why ? Humm to make even more money. Go ask Paul Oakenfold. Also to become a worldly DJ isnt something bad at all. It's the only way to shut up the critics and bad mouthing.

Bro, thats not what he is trying to do. He has been asked about it, and he has said he is happy where he is. He makes a lot of money right now. The time and effort into become a world renowned DJ isnt worth it to him. And to be honest with u, i dont blame him. When your a God in the best city in the world does it get better than that.

Humm to each his own and honestly if he's happy then it's ok but spinning to different crowd all over the world is a nice challenge.
