I am curious as to what reasons people have in why they chose who they did for #1 DJ in the world. Everyone knows I keep a good open mind to most EDM so I am not here to slag anyone and their reasons. With that being said...
I voted Armin van Buuren because first of all he has deserved it for quite some time now, kind of how people felt about PvD finally winning it last year. Although, the difference, I feel is that Armin STILL deserves it. He consistantly creates an incredible vibe throughout his live performances and has the crowd screaming for more after every song. I have seen many dj's this year and enjoyed almost all of them but Armin stands out from them all because of the simple vibe that he creates. It is almost as though you could be blind folded in a club and still know he is dj'ing due to the tracks he plays (he does have his own sound) and the crowd reaction (chanting his name doesnt count! )
He has also done so much for this community, in my mind. His ASOT show has and still is a huge success. It gives those of us who can't spend all day searching for tunes to hear the latest and greatest that some dj's are hammering in the clubs, including Armin. And one great thing that Armin constantly does is thank his fans. He knows why he is where he is today, because of his fans and the people who listen to his music and dj sets.
With all that being said, I can't wait to see him again this Saturday in Washington DC at Club Fur. My brother and I are taking our mom, yes our MOM!!!! to see him! She has been bugging us to see Armin for almost a year now so we are all really excited. We know Armin is gonna lay it down proper for us all.

ok, i got this far without laughing. then I wet myself. Now, with clean underwear, I think I'll answer the question.
John 00 Fleming. Why? Because while most DJs are arrogant pricks who think the sun shines out of their ass & that of their 5 million copycat "djs" John just quietly does what he does best, mix quality sets, pick up great tracks on his label & in the world of same-sounding crap and with cookie cutter tracks and 'weblabels' polluting our ears, he brings us real trance. And he's a nice guy too.

Exact same reasons why I voted for Mylo.
...plus the fact Mylo plays more than just one genre (a LOT more!)

i voted for sander, and meh i rly havnt been impressed with him alot this year, couple of hot really hot songs he has been canning but nothing out of this world. but noone else has impressed me just a bit this year exept him.
maybe its a loyalty thing, iv enjoyed his stuff years before... maybe im in false hope that he will go back to that sound, by the end of the year though, he kinda has been going back to the more progish sound.
