5+ DJs who aren’t on this list because I’ve never seen them, but really I’d like to:

The Unabombers (the mid-point between my London and SF loves was in … Manchester); Sound Pellegrino Thermal Team (the link below was the first truly great DJ mix I’d heard in years); Filthy Dukes (their unreleased ‘A Nation of Shopkeepers Vol 2´ was a staple ‘round ours – and I’d still kill to get my hands on a copy of that ‘Sailors’ record they play!); DJ Sneak or any of his French Acolytes; Q-Burns Abstract Message (his Invisible Airways show is still my favourite source for new dance music these days).

4 great DJs and world-changing musicians who will not appear on this list for reasons I can’t quite put my finger on:

Justin Robertson (anything the others can do he can do better); Andrew Weatherall (the one all the others want to be); The Chemical Brothers (the only ones who still need no introduction...)
