DJ magazine reflects the mood of the club proper...

1997,98,99 were all about trance until the formage kick'd in and people started looking for something new.

2000, 2001 were all about prog. People were sick of the uplifting, formage trance and wanted something more meaningful. Prog filled the boots. People declared trance dead.

2002, 2003 - trance rose back up (due to formage prog), filled the hearts of the despondent (sad prog listeners) and built a new realm of quality happy, emotional tracks.

--

Bottom line - the last 2 years trance re-built itself. Prog had overtaken the formage/crap trance that was being produced - and it took a few years (and a few good djs: tiesto, ferry, armin, pvd) to build back the happy sounds of late 1999.

Personally - I'm happy. Trance lives within me and makes me move. Prog did it's thing (rationalized me) but now that uplifting, spirited trance is back I'm happier than ever.

Further I think:

the uplifting and mellower prog will shift erras every 2 to 3 years from now until infinity.

IMO - It will go like this for a long while:

good trance --> formage trance --> good prog --> formage prog --> good trance --> repeat...

"formage"...now, maybe I'm missing something, but do you guys mean FROMAGE as in "cheese" :tongue2 Jeez...if you're gonna use the lingo, get it right ;)

Good for Tiesto...no, he's not the "best" DJ, but it's pretty hard to dispute his popularity...I love that trance DJs took the top three with Ferry close behind at #6.

Scumfrog will be on that list next year, I hope...and nice to see Max up there too. MO would be up there if he toured...he'll have to be content being near the top of many TOTA's DJ list :)
ahlamalek
if everyone in the edm scene voted, house and techno would be way better represented in this top100. only 50000 votes??!?! thats it?? I would give 100$ to see how many votes #100 got, i bet it wouldn't be 200 votes. ridiculous.

atb? blank and jones? mike?!?! wtf these guys doing in a DJ top 100 ???

bleh.
infinity HiGH

yea, i agree...i'm easing the pain that the top 3 spots are trance dj's by telling myself that within the next 2-3 years James Holden & Zabiela are gonna be owning that list methinks.

...k, i'm just kidding about the 'easing pain' part, lol. But I do agree that "prog" and uplifting trance are going to alternate every few years. I'm really happy for PvD and honestly, I was rooting for him to be number 1. He really deserves it after all the accomplishments in the past. But at least he finally moved up from number 4. So thats good :)
