It changes all the time but off the top of my head, right now, something like:

Glenn Wilson - always brilliantly produced, hard, dark & intelligent all at the same time
Tim Wright - nobody else sounds like him... genuine funk
Alex Calver - brings creativity & polish to the hard stuff
Julian Liberator - too often overlooked IMO, can mangle sound in the most beautifully awful ways
Dirty Bass - mainly because I'm currently listening to that Voidloss PA for the 3rd time today & it's grabbed me like nothing has in a good while!

[DannyBlack]

Julian Liberator - too often overlooked IMO, can mangle sound in the most beautifully awful ways

id have to agree whole heartedly there, i bought 'true defective a couple of years back, "Ju Ju drums" has to be one of the best produced traxx i've ever heard.

Adam Beyer

Cristian Vogel - always surprising and trippy productions

[Microdot]

Joey Beltram.
Robert Hood.
James Pennington.
Orlando Voorn.
DJ Hell.

[Craig_Lea]

Surgeon - For getting me into Techno with Communications.
Speedy J - For everything from his ambient stuff to the evil pneumatic drill to the face stuff.
Tim Wright - For introducing me to bass heavy complex Techno with Fold, and everything since.
Technasia - For varied and excellent productions, and for Charles Siegling making singing in a dodgy french accent work, when it really shouldn't.
Boris S - For re-establishing my faith that Techno can be super hard and interesting.

[djfilthmonger]

Glenn Wilson-Fantastic tracks old and new
Alex Calver-This guy is on to something when it comes to techno
Drumcomplex and chris binder-Any track of these i heard is savage
Arkus p- His stuff is animal, Ferociously good
Patrik Skoog- Legend simple as,

And theres many more but at the moment this list will do for me
