Pages (6): « 1 2 3 4 [5] 6 »

ROFLMAO ahahah this list just made my month... doesn't get much better than that lol

Hahaha, I'm thinking this list is completely fabricated by the DJMag editors for their enjoyment of people's reactions after.

Editor 1: "Okay okay, how about we stick the 5 DJs who did fuck all the whole year at the top, and a polka band in the top 20."
Editor 2: "You don't like my 50 cent idea?"
Editor 3: "Nah, I think that may be pushing it. We'll see how it goes this year with the polka band, and put fifty in next year."

WOW...Who the fuck is Dj Dan?? hahahaha this is soo dumb!

how many ppl here really think that dj dan has done better this year than

FERRY CORSTEN
SASHA
JOHN DIGWEED
ABOVE & BEYOND
DEEP DISH
CARL COX
PAUL OAKENFOLD
HERNAN CATTANEO
MARCO V
BENNY BENASSI
SANDER KLEINENBERG
SANDER VAN DOORN

oh and one more thing

Edited: Fuckin' right.. A little strange, but whatever.

You have got to be kidding me. By far the most out-of-whack poll I have seen yet of our music scene yet. All I can say is keep supporting the DJs you like by going out to their gigs and buying their music. Honestly if DJ Mag wants to continue this ridiculous MTV-like poll then fine so be it but I think anyone who knows their music knows that poll has lost any credibility steadily over the last few years. Its become clear that they favor certain DJs and we will never know how much they tip the votes in favor of certain DJs. I really find it hard to believe PVD beat out Armin this year for the #1 spot. I like his stuff but c'mon he hasn't done near what Armin has done over the last couple of years. But oh wait that's right...isn't he a regular columnist for DJ Mag? Seeing Tiesto drop to #3 is no suprise after the fallout he had with DJ Mag some time ago.

At any rate it was good to see some fresh new talent like Sander Van D. come in high on the chart - well deserved. And seriosly...DJ Dan at #5??? I find that extremely hard to believe...I can't possibly see him getting more votes than Ferry, Deep Dish, Carl Cox, Sander K. or any of the other big names on there. Oh wait haven't I seen him do an article or two in DJ Mag....?

He did a REALLY good TATW guestmix a while back, if memory serves.

Originally posted by sufee_b well I dont think this even supposed to be a contest about skill (and it shouldnt be), it is about popularity but i think some what to do with who can rock the fuckin house and who knows the music and has a certain style

Ya but if that were the case, then christopher lawrence wouldnt be ranked higher than ferry or sasha.

I think christopher lawrence is a great dj but hes not as much of a crowd pleaser as the other 2 I just mentioned especially since hes making a transition to psychedelic so i have a feeling a bunch of people got together and really messed with the polls by posting multiple votes or something.

EDIT: I just noticed that John 00 fleming isnt even in the top 100 ... thats just disappointing

Just got back from Fabric & can confirm that is the correct list. Good night, rammed to the rafters though.... (far too many vandit t-shirts for my liking )

Originally posted by TranceGrooves Isnt it kind of funny that before the poll, alot of people go around saying how they dislike it and they will never vote and how this is bunch of BS. But, when it is time for the results the same people cant stop posting in all sorts of forums and raise their voice as to why their fav. dj didnt make the cut and are first to point fingers at djs who did make it and the fans who voted for those djs lolz.

Nail on the head there. End of the day its an open vote for peoples favourite dj, by no means is it a poll about skill & technical level. People who think one dj doesnt deserve it will get another person somewhere else saying the opposite. One mans noise, another mans music etc.

With regards to 'spamming' or allegations of vote rigging, i mean ill be honest i dont blame anyone. They would do just what anyone else would do in a similar situation.

People seem to forget its just like a General Election for voting for Government in your country, every candidate/party will make sure you know about their policies etc, DJ Mag runs along the same lines.

However a lot of you would be suprised how many promoters across the world will book djs soley on DJ Mag placings for the annual awards. A top 50 place can double a DJ's international bookings for the year. I guess a DJ's livelihood depends on the bookings, therefore a good DJ Mag rank in the poll will help matters no end!

Just getting worse and worse: DJ Dan at 5?
I know, i know, i really DONT care.
Opinions bla bla....

John Acquaviva - Highest New Entry - WOW.....about time this man got some respect.

As for the top five...no real surprises...take any of the top three and put them as number one and I don't think anyone would be surprised.

I am glad to see so many new entries though.....that is a good sign that maybe some new and exciting sounds are on the way instead of the same old crap.

Soo true...Joof deserves to be in the top 20 for sure...and especially after seeing him at WEMF, there is no doubting that. There is something wrong with these polls.

I feel a bit bad for Armin but unfortunately he has to work harder to get the number 1...which is kinda good as it is very likely that we will see another great Armin year.

I wonder what Tiesto is going to do about going down.

Originally posted by adi26 Thats weird especially cos PVD has never been big on voting and the rest of it. Well, its his management...cant really blame him.

Sure you can blame him...he hires his management...unless you have had a nice long sit down conversation with PVD I don't know how you can say he has never been big on voting and the rest of it. Every single DJ on that list wants to be on that list.

Well, I am sure everyone wants to be in the list but I say this based on his various interviews I have seen...He really appears to not care much about the whole ranking system - well he atleast does not openly show it unline Armin or Dj Dan ffs..lol

What are you people talking about???


DJ Dan is the man, hes way better than Tiesto for sure.

His sets are amazing and there is no DJ better than him live.

I have seen him 12 times now and he gets better and better.

Funky house all the way.........

I would say that the TA DJ Poll is way more accurate the DJ Mag's...what a fuckin joke

No, I probably won't.

DJ Dan has been pumping out the same boring electro house for at least a couple of years now. There's nothing funky about it IMO.

dj mag really need to separate genres or not do this poll at all.

hehe I'm glad I didn't vote.

Originally posted by Jem_hadar I'm not longer an Armin fan, but Paul van Dyk def dont deserve the #1 spot over Armin van Buuren. This was just such a fucking incredible year for him (even if I didnt appreciate it that much myself)

that's a plain stupid thing to say

I've glanced through this thread ... and I see people crying about the list how it's unbeleivable, well perhaps the scene out there doesn't only revolve around tranceaddict just a thought

on the side note it's nice to see Menno De Jong made it

Dj Dan, Dj Dan, he's our man, if he can't do it no one can!
