Galen Behr
Jon O' Bir
Manuel le Saux
Ferry Tayle
Darren Tate
Sean tyas sometimes..
Markus Schulz
Above&Beyond
Chris Hampshire
Ronski Speed
Menno de Jong
(sometimes AvB)

(in no particular order)

They deserve to stay at the top positions instead of pvd,ferry,tiesto, and the same old boring name....they'll stay at the top since people think "Oh my God! He was God for a longtime, so I'm keeping up with voting him nowadays even if he's spinning the best garbage!!! "

Anyway....think it's also important to split into the main 2 or 3 electronic genres like techno (with all its sub-genres), trance ( same) and house (progressive, deep, tribal ecc ecc).

It's impossible and unuseful to list a chart with djs from trance, drum 'n'n bass, house, techno, hardcore .... what's the sense in that???

Jeff Mills can spin with 6 decks!!! That's awesome!!! But Ferry Tayle spins some gorgeous "ohmygodwowowowoooo" chooons so who's better ??

That would makes sense, if the case wasn't that they all play the same crap.
