I dig Chris Carrier in this genre; also Mark Chambers; John Margulies hobotech project is really cool if you're into that sort of sampling.... But I second the beatport idea; there is a lot of this stuff and I don't even know the names of most of the stuff I hear in this genre.

These threads are starting to get on my nerves. Why not put the time and effort into looking for it yourself instead of asking others what artist you should be downloading?

The question is why do you want to make a minimal/tech house mix in the first place? Did you hear a mix that caught your attention? If so maybe you should start by finding the tracks and artists on that mix, find out what label(s) they're on and see who else is on there and then just play connect the dots from there.

Or are you doing it because it seems like the "popular" thing to do? What kind of styles/genre's do you mix at the moment? Why are you feeling the need to abandon your first love?

If you just download all the "popular" or "well known" names and make a mix with their tunes it's just going to show that you have no passion, desire, love or knowledge of the scene and will come off as being very dull, vanilla, dry and old hat as everyone and there mother has played those artists tracks to death.

There's SO much good music out there, and it's so easily available that threads like these should never be seen, ever.
