That is a bit of a generalisation. There is world of good Dance/Electronic music/producers out there. You just need to look. The problem is, people only look for what is right in front of them...the obvious stuff, such as Ministry of Sound, which once upon a time were superb...but they sold out to Cascada etc.

Depends which genre you are looking at since Electronic is so vast. Experimental stuff that is more for home listening? Or banging club tunes? Or relaxing ambient stuff?

I like it all, and I have a few diffrent things. But I was talking more about dance as in thump thump thump, well dance music. I have some great synthy stuff, indie-electronic stuff, ambient ect but in terms of actual club music albums tend to be s*** which is where mix albums should come in, but on the whole they do not anymore. In terms of albums I think Vitalic and The Hacker are the only real dance ones I have found lately that stand up. Mix albums I havent heard anything for years that impressed me and I kinda stopped looking a few years ago when electro-house and indie-dance were the rage and i tried desperately to find an amazing mix album there and failed.

If a mix album is not done right it ends up being just endless mindless thump thump thump for 40 mins and get on your nerves, these days they tend to only be good for backround noise when you have people round. The ones by Tiga and Radioactiveman had depth and charicter and atmosphere and they built and devloped.
