this is still funny to this day. how the crowd literally booed him plus the fireworks setting off in dead silence.

David Guetta was responsible for making beats for hip hop artists at that time before making that shitty EDM commercial wave in the USA.

I’d actually never seen that clip. You can actually hear the fireworks sounding like one you’d light yourself on Fourth of July. So awkward.

Won't deny, that 'celebration', along with Armin's attempts to quell the boos, is partly what inspired this:

Looking back on it, I can't think of another moment in DJ Mag's #1 DJ Poll history that did more damage to its legacy. Not the fact that Guetta won it, oh no. The absolute wet fart of a coronation shone a bright spotlight in how much the poll overhypes its value.

The crowd's silent reaction is how a significant chunk of club-land viewed the poll even then.
