Same.

Alot of people mentioned that he's got a massive North American fanbase and they hold alot of the voting power.

Oh well...

Through the simple processes of reading and deduction, my dear Watson! Here's how I did it my boy...

1.) The title says, "DJ Dan and the DJ mag top 100"
2.) The following pieces of text in your opening post...


3.) The following piece of text in your post after your opening post...

quote:
Maybe you've never gone to hear a dj you were curious about, and maybe you've never been disappointed. I did, and I was...


Nope, every club experience I've ever had has been peachy! Of course I've been disappointed by certain DJs. However, I didn't go into the event expecting them to be any good without downloading a few sets from them and only going because of their rank on an incredibly inaccurate list. I typically attend events for DJs that I know are good based off of listening to their sets and tunes. Have I been disappointed by those DJs? Sure! It happens.

However, it's apparent to me that you went only because he was ranked so high and you expected him to be at a certain level. It's your own fault for trusting a bullshit magazine poll and going into an event without a single clue as to what he was going to spin.

DJ Dan's ranked #5 in the world. Top house DJ in the list... and he's come out of nowhere. So when I heard he was playing at a club in Shanghai, I just HAD to go hear him play.


There.

Really makes me wonder about is ranking and how the fcuk that DJ Mag system works.


And there.

Not to read between the lines or anything, but for future reference, never take the DJ mag for granted, even if it's out of morbid curiousity.
It's quite a gamble and for the most part, you'll end up dissapointed.

You'd think after ATB's #9 rank, people would have learned by now...


Posted by DJ Mikey Mike on May-07-2007 17:40:

You'd think after Tiesto's #1 rank, people who have learned by now...


Posted by Orko on May-07-2007 17:41:

Others have said it, but thinking that DJ Dan was a nobody who got to #5 is laughable. He may not have the up front popularity of the other big boys, but he has been around a long time, and has a solid track record behind him.


Posted by Tony Morello on May-07-2007 18:07:

there's also the point of the dancefloor being filled with tables and chairs, i don't normally play an interactive set if there's nothing to interact with

dj dan has always played a wicked set every time i see him

he loves to come rock out calgary, the crowds are good here, many djs coming through have mentioned that


Posted by sEpH on May-07-2007 18:34:

Are you sure you went to the right club?


Posted by Alex on May-07-2007 18:41:

Given that every DJ outside the USA is a terrorist, the American voters can only vote for Schulz/Lawrence/DJ Dan/Deep Dish.

Also the DJ Mag is the most accurate system for ranking DJs...ever.

Tiesto > DJ Mikey Mike
AVB > Da Fonz



Discuss.

I'm going to just go ahead and say you're the one who needs to get a clue and learn the difference between "Electro" and "Electro House."

Sadly, I don't know that there's enough cash in the world to buy you one.

Perhaps your the one who needs to get a clue.

There is a big difference between real electro and the pish "electro-hooth" that the likes of Dj Dan plays.


Posted by Orko on May-07-2007 23:40:

OK, you are all idiots.

The mere fact that we managed to get Mikey Mike to 110 automatically proves that the DJ Mag poll is absolutely worthless. After seeing his ranking, how anybody can believe in the poll as an accurate representation of musical quality is beyond me.


Posted by nikhil chinapa on May-08-2007 06:49:

Right. Going by people's opinions and comments here I've figured :

1. Dan does a decent job as a DJ when on song, and has a wealth of experience behind him (albeit not entirely "global")
2. DJ Mag and all DJ polls are mischevious machinations contrived by satan.

I still think Dan played a shit set on the night, and yes... it's the last time I'll allow morbid fascination get the better of me, rather than common sense and a little research.
I'll go stand in the corner now.

I could be wrong, but isn't Dan relatively unknown outside the continental US?


Common knowledge no?

Obv DJ Mag poll is worthless.
I'm betting pretty much anything that DJ Dan was one of the MANY that paid
someone to generate fake votes in his name....he just went overboard with it to make himself #5
