Yes, it still exists, despite the Loudness War raging on so much. Post songs that you think have really good production.

Zac Brown Band is usually a good source of it in my opinion. Here's their latest single, "The Wind":

Jay Joyce is also a great producer, who makes some very interesting sounds on Eric Church albums. For instance, "Creepin'":

According to many comments I've read online, this is very YMMV, but I personally find Devin Townsend's "Deconstruction" one of the best produced albums I've heard. All the elements on the album are listenable (an achievement, considering how multi-layered its songs are), and even those that are BARELY listenable are there for the audience to discover after many listens. It's also clean-sounding (even if a bit on the bassy side) and pleasant to listen even when it's metaphorically blasting your face, and manages to be loud without sacrificing dynamic range.

No regret shall pass over the threshold!

The last two Death albums (Symbolic and Sound of Perseverance) have REALLY good production IMO. Here's just an example:

All Get Out had amazing production for their debut album, The Season.

Note: The youtube version of the track is missing the two minute outro instrumental the actual track has... :/

This song excels at something that is very important in music: chords.

Los Lonely Boys had some amazing production on their debut. For instance, here's their only well-known song, "Heaven":

These guys deserved way more than one hit, IMO.
