Producers
Moonlight Matters
Consistently producing remix after remix of high quality, everything he has released has been excellent. Finally he put out an original release on Aeroplane’s “In Flight Entertainment”, which was again brilliant. This man has done no wrong, providing some of the best tunes of the year, long may he continue.
The Magician
The best thing to happen from Aeroplane’s split is The Magician. His original productions and remixes have been excellent, his consistently great Magic Tapes and live DJ sets he lives up to his productions. He’s continually produced material all year and it’s been the soundtrack to my year. His work with Yuksek has been outstanding and it was hard to pick one track for the top 10, but this one if my favourite I think with ‘Twist’ coming a very close second.
Gigamesh
With a wide ranging sound, Gigamesh has delivered remix after remix of dancefloor killers and an original EP that was on fire. Versatile and always to a high standard I think that Gigamesh is destined for greatness.
Blue Satellite
His fidget electro disco house style with more musicality than most producers has really impressed me. I can only see 2012 being a big year for him.
