lolz

The DJMag results are more lulz than they've ever been before. Avicii at #6? srs?

It seems every DJ who didn't sell out in 2011 went down multiple places, and every DJ who did (or just started with terrible cheese music) went up. Skrillex up to rank 19, Afrojack and Avicii in the top 10, but Cosmic Gate went down 19 places and Digweed & Sasha went down nearly 30 places each? Even Oakenfold took a 19 rank hit. Simon Patterson went down 48. Hawtin went down 16.



Sad to say that many of the above DJ's fans don't vote in the polls because they think DJMags polls are a load of crap (which they are). But the problem there is that the only person they are hurting by not voting IS their favorite DJs. It's not like they're "sticking it to DJmag" or proving a point or anything, they're simply taking potential advertisement AWAY from their favorite DJs.

I hope more people vote next year, just for the sake of the amazing DJs that do all the work with none of the fame.

thats what you get when you involve facebook and dj polls together.

before that at least people had to search. spend a good 10 min to find out where to vote. that meant a voter was committed to this. With face book it was just a clik away and so much easy to share. so the obvious happened. we all knew it. Move on.

every year dj polls seems to surprise people : )

I'm going to start a new poll where you have to have proof you're 19+.

def. saw this coming. not much of a change tho, top 3 djs are still Guetta, Armin, Tiesto

I def. saw avicii moving up tho! thats a massive move. and i love how theres always that one dj where your like whoo the hell is that, hehe!

my Top100 dj says Eric Prydz is number one, sorry.

I wish Eric was #1. But instead he dropped like 30 ranks. HurrrrrrrrrrrrRRRRrrrr

Sasha boat party, Lee Burridge's All Day I Dream (& Burning Man sunrise), Scumfrog @ Good Units.

on the real tho the top 10 was going to be a joke but to have shm number 10 then have each dj seperatly is another joke
dash berlin ahead of carl cox?
arty ahead of hernan cattaneo?
hardwell ahead of hawtin?
laidback luke ahead of dj vibe?

i didnt vote this year but it's clear that the new generation of voters really are clueless imo
i will continue to keep supporting local dj's, and dj's who keep it real
but looking at this poll as an outsider this is a dark and sad day for edm

I'm convinced voting as a system only works with a small, educated population. After that it just seems to become a money / power game - and not just with DJ Mag..
