To celebrate its 25-year anniversary, UK dance monthly Mixmag brought the “25 biggest names in electronic music” together for a truly iconic cover shoot. The staggering cast includes Daft Punk, Fatboy Slim, Basement Jaxx, LCD Soundsystem, The Prodigy, Moby, Mylo, Richie Hawtin, Roisin Murphy, Dizzee Rascal, Paul van Dyk, Goldie, Sven Vath, Felix Da Housecat, Erick Morillo, Sasha, Faithless, Underworld and more.

‘Surely they’ve all been Photoshopped in,’ we hear you say. Well, the video below tells another story: Mixmag actually got all these people in the same room. It’s enough to make even the most casual dance fan a little hot under the collar. And, instead of an almighty clash of egos, it actually looks like they had some fun. It’s got to be said, though: “the 25 biggest names in electronic music” aren’t looking so fresh-faced anymore.

Mixmag’s 25th birthday issue is out now – featuring the star-studded fold-out cover in all its glossy glory.

Now check out what went down at the cover shoot.

Here Australia’s new favourite party Trojan Sven Vath talks up his long career in dance music.

Underworld’s Karl Hyde reflects on the ‘then’ and the ‘now’.

The Prodigy on early house records and never wanting to come down.

refreshingly that list is mostly live artists rather than the disposable dj.
