Favorite producers??

Post by DJ Etain » Tue Aug 22, 2006 3:09 pm

Hey!!

Newbie here. Trying to see who else on thsi board likes the same style of music that I do. Here's a list of some of my favorites:

Steve Bug
Mud Max
B-Pole
Richie Hawtin
Valentino Kanzyani
Umek
Trentemoller
Nathan Coles
All the Crosstown Rebels
Claude Von Stroke
Terry Francis
Sven Vath


Minimal Techno all the way to Hard Banging Techno is my favorite.

I love deep, rolling basslines. If anyone out there knows some tricks to writing said basslines in Ableton, I would love to hear your wisdom :twisted:
Being a newbie, I am finding that to be the hardest part of producing.

Don't be surprised if I ask questions pertaining to that subject from time to time!!

:)
