who's the most technically masterful producer?

[zaxl]

Lately I've been listening to a lot of really detailed, glitchy, heavily edited music, and I was wondering who you guys would list as the most technically awesome producer in EDM.

I nominate Dave Tipper. The amount of detail, inventiveness, and sheer sonic weight of his music just blows my mind. Who would you rank?

here's a tune from his new EP

this is one of those topics where everyone will have a complete different opinion. It would be hard to pin it down as to who is the best technical producer as it is hard to know exactly what they did when they produced the track.

Skism hands down in my opinion, the dude's sound designing is out of this world

oh for sure, it's all a matter of opinion. i'm hoping that some DJF opinions might turn me on to some excellent producers who i may have missed

Yah, this will come down to preference, but here's some ppl who stand out for me. I'm not even a fan of all their work, but you know qualiy when you hear it.

Arty (Skilled producer, yet gets no mentions. )
Robert Babicz (interesting tracks)
Carlo Lio
Miguel Migs
Wolfgang Gartner
Marcus Schssow (this guy is a beast! but his sound is too big for my style)

Any of the artists on Prologue, really detailed techno from Italy/Berlin

Here's an example, though you need a good system/decent copies of the music to feel the full effects:

I like Shed too, the sounds he was coming up with on his first album were incredible
