Those are definitely some good names today; but if you want a bit of a history lesson I'd check out Sasha in the late 90's and early 00's.
Also Oakenfold, Paul Van Dyk, John Digweed, and Carl Cox were all in their prime during those days.
- calebmpeterson 14y agoSo 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.
- dfischer 14y agoDigweed and Carl Cox still tear it up. Specifically Carl, damn that guy is a legend.
- dcpdx 14y agoArmin Van Buren. He's been around awhile and still cranks out bangers consistently.

- adriand 14y agoIf 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.
- bcrescimanno 14y agoThanks 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!
- maximilianburke 14y agoAgreed. 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.
