Across the globe, there are an unimaginable amount of wonderful people making magical music that will stand the the test of time. But the mainstream market is small and specific, and we're bored with it, quite honestly. There is a new wave of artists that are ready to elbow their way to the top, and the OG's that never quite figured out how important social media is (or how to maximize it) are still swinging.

Instead of quietly complaining, the DAD staff decided to band together as a team in an effort to showcase some of our favorite producers with less than 5,000 followers. This was our opportunity to spread the word to artists, labels, booking agencies, blogs, and fans of music about some of the artists that move us. We hope this sheds some light on these massive(-ly underappreciated) producers.
