Honestly there are so many
Man I love Electronic music. From Chill Out to Happy Hardcore and everything in between, there are virtually endless good tracks.
Me, I personally prefer to roll on really quick shit to start off. Something that will take my mind off the coming roll, and just rave. This is usually very high beat Hardcore, that just flows so much energy in you. As the roll is coming, you are getting a great vibe from the energy of the music.
I listen to mostly compilations, but the big names of my favorite hardcore djs are of course Scott Brown, Euphony, Brisk and Ham, Stoorm, Styles, Anabolic Frolic, ... there are so many to list. Just start listening to any hardcore set, and if you like then get into it. There is so much good stuff to discover here. Trance-core, Happy Hardcore, UK Hardcore, Breakbeat Hardcore, Gabber (which I'm not to fond of). I love this type of electronic music because it mixes all the genres into one extremely energetic flow that's normally from 150-250 bpms. Now for hardcore junkies this is no new stuff, but just letting him know. My friends didn't like the cheesy stuff at first, but it gets a lot better with listens.
Compilation DJ favorites include:
Scott Devotion
DJ Spree
DJ Cloudskipper
No Left Turn
DJ Starr
DJ Sixxx
DJ Myers
DJ Gazza
Next mix I would prefer to be Chill-out or Ambient. It relieves the energy from the Hardcore, and makes the user feel damn good. It's like a cool wind after a hot summer day.
The DJs have been mentioned here a lot: Chicane, Robert Miles, Orbital, etc.
Compilation favorite DJ's include:
DJ Tiane
DJ Rivers
Last would be Trance. What more can I say about Trance on E, that others haven't said. The jump from Ambient to Trance provides enough energy but not too much leaving the user in a complete euphoric state for the peak. Complete awesomeness.....
Favorites like everyone else said:
DJ Tiesto, Armin Van Burren, Paul Van Dyke, Above & Beyond, Thrillseekers, Blank and Jones, Ferry Corsten, Gabriel and Dresdon, Solar Stone, god that list goes on and on.
Over-all My Track selection for a perfect roll would be:
Hardcore
Ambient, Chill Out, or GOA-Psytrance
Trance
and if you really want to mix it up- GOA
Don't get me wrong I also love Breakbeat and DNB but it doesn't have as much effect on E. But maybe that's just me.
Good Roll to you sir...
