Most Underrated Electronic Music Artists

2 years an electronica fan, and I have seen the unexplored side of it.
The Top Ten
Moby Moby is an American musician known for his inventive contributions to various subgenres of electronic music, drawing inspiration from 1950s gospel, modern rock, and artists like New Order and David Bowie... read more

How is Moby a one hit wonder with songs such as: Mistake, Flower, We Are All Made of Stars, Extreme Ways, Porcelain, Why Does My Heart Feel So Bad, Everloving and In This World? Seen the views even on those? Also! Another underrated, in my opinion, art of electronic music is Infected Mushroom. I recommend their song Special Place.

I love Moby. He's the sort of chap you just want to go out for tea and cake with and talk about the state of the environment without you feeling like you're being belittled. I've always liked his music, and his work with the Void Pacific Choir was really interesting. I love his new album though.

Odesza

They are too good to be popular, but they're getting there.

Burial
San Holo

San Holo=Epic...He's really good and deserves this spot...Moby's good too...But I like this guy more...One of the best in Trap Music after Wide Awake, Illenium and T-Mass!

The only good artist making trap music I know so far. His chill trap is best!

San Holo is my vote for the most underrated electronic music artist!

Flying Lotus
Filo & Peri

Moby is my number one choice on this list, but I have to say here that Filo & Peri are left out when it comes to trance and house. They deserve lots more attention. "This Night", for instance, is one of the best songs of all time.

Electus

His entire subgenre, chillstep, is massively underrated, and he is the best in it. His best song, "Fallen" is haunting for life.

Agree he's very underrated...but speaking of chillstep, where is BLACKMILL?

The Newcomers

? Christian Büttner / The Fat Rat

Wow! I can't believe he is not included in this list... an overly underrated glitch-hopper that had made good EDM. Listen to his "Unity" and "Monody", I'm sure you will find these and more of his songs good... Windfall, Never Be Alone, Time Lapse. And most of his better music can relate to its title, like Fly Away, which makes you feel like you just flew up into the sky and you saw everything below you.

He's not necessarily the best EDM artist around, but he's much better than mainstream artists like Marshmello.

Why are they so obscure? They were fantastic.

Skream

Skream is classic dubstep and I love that.

Most underrated producer, fact.

Deadmau5 Joel Thomas Zimmerman (also known as deadmau5) is a Canadian DJ and music producer. He previously worked as a web developer.

He produces a wide variety of electronic music genres, including electro, dubstep, progressive house, and electro‑house. He is best known for helping to popularize progressive... read more

Deadmau5 has been underrated. Despite his simple melodies, he puts a lot of effort into synths and the rhythm. Others like Martin Garrix usually have a simple rhythm of quarter notes. Deadmau5 on DJ Mags is dropping. Producers who buy bots to vote like Dimitri Vegas and Like Mike are not even that good. It is just that people are slowly transferring from pop to EDM so people still like energetic music. One main reason Deadmau5 is underrated.

The terms "Overrated" and "well known" are two different things. The mau5 is now pretty much well known rather than overrated considering how his style of music differs from generic "EDM". An example of overrated artists are Skrillex, Chainsmokers and Calvin Harris.

Aphex Twin Richard David James, born on August 18, 1971, is an Irish-born English electronic musician and composer who performs under the stage name Aphex Twin. He is widely regarded as a pioneering figure in electronic music, especially within styles like IDM, acid techno, ambient, and jungle... read more

He influenced a lot of the popular electronic artists today! Without him, we wouldn't have Daft Punk, Deadmau5, Squarepusher, etc.. Though he is quite popular, I think that he is very under popular in the United States.

Example Elliott John Gleave, known by his stage name Example, is an English musician, singer, songwriter, and record producer. He gained popularity in the late 2000s with chart-topping singles such as Changed the Way You Kiss Me. Example has released multiple studio albums and remains active in the UK music... read more

Live life living was a blast...sad he faded away since then
