My advise is pick music in the same genre that you think sounds great.

Exactly, that's what I meant. You cannot compare music styles that have nothing to do. The mixes are different, the source materials are different. Even the rules are different. A rock/pop mixing engineer wouldn't probably use reverb/delay on a bass track at all - but in electronica that's completely possible, even advisable sometimes...

I listened to jazzanova. While it's not exactly my type of music, the songs I listened were really clear, it's really beautiful when all the elements in the mix just 'sit' there...

Other suggestions for deep housey music A/B comparisons?
Turn up the radio. Turn up the tape machine. Look into the sunset up ahead. Roll the windows down for a better taste of the cool desert wind. Ah yes. This is what it's all about. Total control now.

anything mark and moritz related: basic channel/main street/maurizio/rythym & sound

as good as music can get imo, and once you wrap your head around the massive hiss on most tracks, insanely well produced
