You have to realise that when people think of a Dj, they don't think of just mixing or selection.....they take productions, remixes, CD release, live sets ALL into account.

You are giving voters WAY too much credit. Do you think people sat down and debated who should be #1 like you suggest? I don't.

As I'm sure we all realized in high school, popularity is not based on anything tangible, like you suggest.

honeslty dont think that system is going to work. you should do, for example, 7 points for first pick, and then reduce a point for the following spots.

or so.

just a suggestion.

just a thought.

but tally's kick ass

And I think you aren't giving them enough credit at all. When people voted...I think the MAJORITY of them voted based on certain things. For example..."wow, Nyana was really good this year". I'll vote for Tiesto. Or "wow, Tiesto's set in Ibiza this year blew me away. He's def. #1 this year." Or again....."Tiesto In Concert was an amazing night...he deserves #1". Or..."Traffic was a top tune...#1 Dj this year." THen you have people who vote for him, like me, because he's their favourite no matter what.

I highly doubt that most people who voted for Tiesto were doing so just because he's popular or "cool"....people aren't THAT stupid.

PVD
Tiesto
Infected Mushroom
Jelo
BT
Lab4

These are the only DJs who I've seen during the last 365 days and liked.

P.S. Two DJs who really disappointed me were Steve Lawler and Armin. But I might like Armin if I see him again. The thing is that he was playing at the Guvernment at 4 in the morning, and I wasn't in a really good mood by the time he started playing after listening to all that boring tribal and progressive shit Steve Lawler plays. Plus Armin started out really slow, without any energy at all (unlike PVD!), so after listening to him for half an hour I just said: "Fuck it", and went home.

"Was that Tiesto who played that night at Space when we did those pills and made out with those three hot girls on the dance floor?! OH THAT NIGHT WAS THE BEST OF MY LIFE *vote* "

taking shots at the Brits doesn't help your case. Besides...people voted from all over the world. Just because it's a British magazine doesn't mean it reflects only what british fans think. THe whole point of putting the poll on the internet is so that EVERYONE can vote.

Yes, everyone can vote, but the demographic was largely British and European clubbers.

And I'm poking fun of British clubbers because it's true.

and the scene is largely a European one, so what's your point?

And yes, I bet every single British clubber pops pills and makes out with multiple girls.

according to....?

Posted by jon jon on Nov-02-2003 20:43:

Amongst the many msg boards I've been reading over these last few days (5) it was brought up that the mag admitted that the north american vote was the most hefty.

I'm pretty sure it was the GU board.

My favourite DJ is Tiesto. However, as Wayne Gretzky was always my favourite hockey player and was for a long time the best, at some point he fell from the top of his game. This is the case with Tiesto. Even I can agree after seeing him 10 times in Toronto, Miami, Copenhagen, Berlin, and Amsterdam that this year he is not the best. He was the best last year.
Paul Van Dyk is the best DJ this year. Like Lemieux who was for a while better than Gretzky, he has outlasted tiesto in stamina and staying power to once again become the best DJ on the planet.

Thank you

Tiesto kinda sucked in Toronto last year in December....and his remixes, productions and mix CD were poorer in quality than years past. On the production and release side of things....I'd say 2003 was far better.

I can only compare 2 gigs...but again, Tiesto's 2003 Toronto gig was much better than 2002 at the KH. So with my limited experience with Tiesto, he WAS better this year.
