I think it's interesting how people's Electronic Music preferences contrast with their non-EM preferences. Even for myself, I used to be into Metal & Heavy rock and went from there to Trance. I can certainly see how one would go from metal to Drum & Bass (a lot do) or from Rock to Breaks (given the beat is very similar). It just puzzles me a bit to equate Trance or Prog with metal. Even though I do it myself.

Anyhoo:

DJ's/Producers:
-Apex (DnB)
-Sean Tyas (Trance)
-NAPT (Breaks)
-Brookes Brothers (DnB)
-Hybrid (This is actually a crossover seeing as Hybrid perform a lot of their tracks live as a band. If I had to pidgeon hole i'd call them prog-breaks)

Bands:
-Tool
-Rage Against The Machine
-A Perfect Circle (yes, I have a Maynard obsession...)
-The Music
-Karnivool

p.s Deadmau5 HATES DJ's. look for the article where he bashes the fuck out of DJ's.

Although I'm glad you're into EDM maybe you should try checkin out some non-mainstream progressive trance artists. maybe check out some house, breaks, or dnb?

deadmau5 is a DJ WTF haha.

he mentions he hates certian dj's in some interview he did, also in the track called ghosts n stuff. he mostly just dissing his haters, not all dj's as a whole cause he is one LOL.

No, he actually specifically states that he thinks going to see a DJ is the most boring thing in the world and he thinks they are 'c**ts'

Deadmau5 is not a DJ. He is a producer and when he performs live he doesn't DJ. He actually uses a custom rig to produce the sounds. Much in the same way that Daft Punk do not DJ. There are no CD's/Vinyl/mixing of digital files involved.

Here's a quote from the article:

“It puts me to fucking sleep to be quite honest, I don’t really see the technical merit in playing two songs at the same speed together and it bores me to fucking tears and hopefully with all due respect to the dj type that will fucking go the way of the dinosaur id like them to dis-a-fucking-pear," Joel continued, "its so middle man, they’re like fucking lawyers. You need them, but they’re fucking c--ts. God bless them they’re my number one customer right so I’m not gonna go diss every fucking DJ. But to say you become this massive up on a podium performer by playing other peoples productions at the same speed as someone else’s productions and fading between the two of them, I don’t get it.”
 
yikes!
