that's right! we here in the TOTA forum should make our own list, just to see how things measure up against the "name a DJ" list over at DJ MAG


i'll be taking care of the results since i'm lazy and dont feel like working nights anymore.



this is how it goes, since there is less of us, we can pick 7 DJ's

pick your DJ's based on their performance as a DJ, not how many concerts they did, or how many commercial compilation albums they put out

you have to have had seen them live or at least heard recent (past year) livesets from them.


and also, no matter what the results, tiesto will nto be #1, i'm running this show

jk


but we're all too smart to vote for him anyways


i'll start with my picks

in no particular order

Armin Van Buuren
Mauro Picotto
Chris Liebing
Adam Beyer
SCUMFROG
PVD
Ferry Corsten

BEN SIMS - for mixing tribal techno like the genious that he is.
Barbara - for being fast, funky and furious. And for being personal with her fans.
SVEN VATH - my husband, of course he's on the list!
Deko-Ze - for being one of the fewDJs that has risen to popularity despite consistently mixing multiple genres into a set. (I like this, most don't.)
Hawtin - I don't care what people say. He's diverse, and talented.
John Acquaviva - tech housey goodness that never disappoints.
Adam Beyer - he's flawless, and hot, what more can I say?
Dave clarke - for spinning disco. And techno. And electro.
Christian Smith - for his "good days."
....and I'm not sure about the last spot.

Mine are:

PVD
Max Graham
Sasha
Deep Dish
Marco V

Fergie
Umek

edit: Replaced Hernan Cattaneo with Max Graham! Hernan has been bumped one down. Max Graham is an incredible deejay, and he has the same name as me =D

I dont know why everyone is so upset over this.
So what if Tiesto is number one again, and why does everyone think he doesnt deserve it? If he didnt, he wouldnt of got most of the votes.

What im saying is, music is so subjective, you cant really say that one person is better than another, its all about personal preference. People are voting for their favourite djs and thats it. There was no set of guidlines or rules in terms of voting, and the people gave their opinion. Done. It doesnt by any means mean he is the best, although he is my favourite.

As for a TOTA poll, i think it would be kinda cool to se who everyone likes. But itll still be a vote based on peoples individual preference.

My picks:

Tiesto
Paul Van Dyk
Armin Van Buuren
Ferry
Sasha
Mark Oliver
