Isma-Ae track selection, style, and mixing are hard to beat. Sometimes I kinda think he needs to update his sound a bit faster but obviously had him one for a reason. And for all the Armada groupies Armin say's that Isma-Ae is the best actual DJ out there. Kinda upset at myself for caring so much for poll myself. But not like can really blame yourself when now you know what DJ's you will get stuck with coming to city near you.

Yeah I can't wait to see Pete tha Zouk

There are lot's of Armada artist because many people that vote for Armin #1 will put someone like Dash Berlin at number 2, because they have been force fed his vocal pop stuff all year on ASOT. Same with Gareth Emery. He is part of that group that benefits greatly from Armin. I think as Armin starts to fade, the trance guys also will begin to fade. The guys that I think do a great job by themselves are Cosmic Gate, Ferry Corsten and Markus schulz. These guys have their own thing going away from Armin and are legit top 20 crowd drawing DJs.

Just because dubstep fans don't read DJMag doesn't mean DJMag won't try and desperately cultivate that crowd for readership. Hell, even Spin magazine's going after them by having Skr-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-rillex on their cover.

Originally posted by denys envy If it was renamed Top 100 POPULAR DJs, I'd have no problem with it. The reality is that the votes are mostly driven by the fanbase of the DJs involved, and are not really reflected of the skill and/or production quality. Is David Guetta one of the most popular DJs worldwide? Absolutely. And the same can be said for everyone in the top 10... 20... 30. Are they the BEST at what they do? Not necessarily. But skills rarely drive votes these days. Everyone relax.

if the poll had anything to do with actual DJ skills then Digweed would win every year.

lol @ Ferry Corsten dropping to 18, deadmau5 locked at 4 when he hasn't come out with decent quality since 2009 and the simplicity of Thomas Gold not even making the top 100. The poll is strictly popularity, clearly.
