Best producers of 2003

[AshG]

The other thread about "tunes of 2003" got me thinking - i can't really think of any monstro tune except Kaskade's "its you its me", (and though i'm sure some would say J. Jack's "E-Samba", personally all i ever hear during that tune is Daft Punk's "Burning"), but on the other hand, there have been some standout producers.

Here are mine:

Joshua Collins
Lance Desardi
Brett Johnson
Hodges
Cle'
Tiefschwarz
Joshua
Ark
Guided Methods
Fries & Bridges

and of course, the inimitable:

Derrick Carter

I'm sure I've missed a few.

Eric Prydz

 

[DJ KWE]

?west (one word, wow)
Ludikris (west end girls, still killin it)
Vitamin D (still lovin the ole school)
Todd Terry (always loyal)
Vench (underated producer)
Paranoid Jack (rocked several tracks this summer)
Ron Trent *welcome to TO...xoxo
Blaze (lost my "lovely day" original and missing it terribly )
Tim Patrick (homegrown and representin)
Infinate 420 (the guys)
Kaskade (all about the soul)

Lastly, Roy Davis Jr...always a special place in my heart

knew i'd forget a few.

J-Rod's been pretty good too, though not too many releases.

And of course, Vench.
What's the saying?
"A man is never appreciated in his own land." or something like that?
