Those in the list are from the TA Top 250 from last year - for things to be fair.

In the case of your Junkie XL example, yes, he may not be a DJ but seeing how his performances are often sandwiched between other DJs billed for the night it can be argued that he provides a musically equivalent experience (albeit with a technical variation). There are only a handful of such artists out there, and, for them to be excluded from the drop-down list solely because of that is just a roadblock from some extra exposure/votes they'd gain otherwise.

As for producers - all it may take for someone to place up on a DJ poll (TA/DJ mag or whatever) is a killer production that is caned by the top DJs. That producer may not be a DJ at the time of the poll but may see the result as a motivator towards going in that direction (alongside their production work) - and in the end we can all benefit from a little extra push.

Anyways, I don't want this discussion to overpower the thread - we can take this to another thread.

I think Luke Fair will rise quite a bit, and I think Gabriel & Dresden will fall... though probably not that far. Their sets haven't changed that much since 2005.

Honestly, if you don't know if they are DJ's are not then you haven't heard their sets, thus if you haven't heard their sets you can't analyze their DJing skills. This is a DJ popularity contest, not producing.

No way! Kai MacDonald is a good friend of Frank Ellrich, who is actually is A*S*Y*S. They make music together, but as a DJ A*S*Y*S is Frank Ellrich!

I thought precision was done with DJing?

Originally posted by djash Ottaviani isn't a DJ!

He does DJ now. I have 3 live sets of his that I can send you. Granted he is pretty new to DJing solo and he isnt that good. His records skip ALOT and he is constantly playing the same songs. Most of which are his own recent solo production and some of his label mates.

EDIT:

My vote was:

Ferry Corsten
Ronski Speed
Aly & Fila
Matt Darey
Armin Van Buuren
