oh yeah....
Is mastering electronic music different that the other genres. Easier perhaps? more/less challenging?

as i said, for hip-hop/ r&b check out herb powers. definitely numero uno. bob ludwig and bernie grundman for everything else bar electronic stuff. electronic/programmed music IS easier, on the basis that it's less dynamic than music created with real instruments.  people tend to apply more extreme eq's and compression to modern programmed music (because they can), the bass wars are raging out there! pop is all about the finaliser (multi-band, frequency concious, compressor/eq), LOADS of middle.  these kind of mixes tend to sound a bit too fried for me. most modern mixes tend to have rather large bottoms! and the golden rule of course is... there's no such thing as a vocal that's too loud.  sweetening, or emphasis as it's known, is an important area. in london, we have a home-grown hip-hop/r&b/drum&bass hybrid that's by far the most popular stuff at the moment. try and check some out, the bass is everything. i guarantee you that you will not have heard this much bass anywhere before, and this is the latest flavour of pop music here!!!
