Looking forward to this. Like it or not, this guy and Moby are the face of dance music. They are what the casual music lover knows of the dance music scene. Anybody who doesn't know those two names has been living under a rock.

I understand where you are coming from. However, I can go to work and mention those names and people know who I'm talking about. In turn, if I mention Tiesto, PVD or Oakenfold, a lot would have no idea what I was talking about...and supposedly they are the most popular dj's (not necessarily the best).

Norman isn't someone I'd identify as one of my favorite dance music artists, but I can't deny one of the best times I've ever had was at his show. He was phenomenal, and FUN!

Mr.Cook has been an influence for a long time..I respect the man for what he has done...

I'd have to agree w/u on that one and eventhough they are the most popular I prefer breakbeat chicks. But you have to give it up to Fat boy and Mob for what they have contributed.
