i heard theo parrish a few years back and he's like you said, amazing dj, spinning all sorts of things, one minute you grooving at 80-100 bpm slo mo and next minute at 130 bmp. Simply brilliant flow of music, putting his SOUL into it. That's what i like. He also had a filter box going mad on it!

thoe's got soul!! great tracks also.

house music!

Mike Huckaby's my favorite from detroit!! amazing and still rocking after all these years.

back in '91 I used to catch him 2-3 nights a week. great house sets

Agreed!

Also, Magda will always have a special place in my heart. Good taste in music, talented, cute and Polish.

tiesto
armin
sasha
paul van dyk
oakenfold
daft punk (if you call them dj's)
moby

just started getting into electronic dance music. if anyone has any recommendations on some similar artists, im always lookin for fresh music to listen to/spin for other people

love uplifting melodic trance, GOOD house, authentic electro, deep goa trance

oh my god... tiesto is the andre rieu of electronic music. when i stumble across a video of him i wish there was a way of shooting someone through youtube.

if something like objective bad taste exists tiesto manages to nail it. putting daft punk on the same list as tiesto is a crime

John Digweed, cause he pretty much has the same taste in music as me.
Jimmy van M. is great too though I've never actually seen/heard him spin, but he's made some great mix albums.

depends on the type of dj..

turntablism: Qbert, Craze, Kentaro, and especially Enferno.. I like how he incorporates turntablism w/ ableton..

regular dj: Oakenfold, tiesto,..

Wicked DJ and nice bloke.

The last few DJ's that have really left an impression are Johnny Fiasco and Kode 9
