it's not the #1 dj as in quality contest, but the #1 as in popularity contest and guetta clearly has more fans. i mean the guy keeps collaborating with mainstream artists, he just needed a portion of their fan base to push him to the top. i'm really more disappointed that randoms pushed their way to the top like :wtf: avicci, afrojack, and dash berlin. maybe one day they'll get good enough or be around long enough but it's not today.
although happy to see fedde le grand up some spots :toothless

on the real tho the top 10 was going to be a joke but to have shm number 10 then have each dj seperatly is another joke
dash berlin ahead of carl cox?
arty ahead of hernan cattaneo?
hardwell ahead of hawtin?
laidback luke ahead of dj vibe?
i didnt vote this year but it's clear that the new generation of voters really are clueless imo
i will continue to keep supporting local dj's, and dj's who keep it real
but looking at this poll as an outsider this is a dark and sad day for edm
Ha, was just talking about this tonight, I dont even know 1/2 the DJs on this years poll. As Sean Tyas mentioned, maybe trance will go underground again, which to me it a great thing...

It absolutely baffles me why people get all upset about this poll. Its 100%, unashamedly a popularity contest. facebook has been blwoing up tonight because David Guetta is #1 this year. NEWS FLASH...he deserves to be, and its not even close!
Do I personally like him? Um, no. But he has 24 MILLION fans on facebook. The #2 dj in the world...Armin...has less than 4 million. David Guetta is, by far, the most recognizable name in dance music right now...its not even close. No one is saying he is the best, and that he is a better dj than say, Armin, or Sasha, or whoever. He is merely more POPULAR. Why is that such a big deal?
People seem to take such personal offense to this poll every year. I just don't get it. :conf:

the Argentino and Bedrock's head honcho are the top two in my heart man.

Sven Vath 97, Skrillex 19.
Nuff said.
The thing is though...the average age of people who go out these days is getting younger and younger, especially in this country. I have younger brothers and sisters in law, who are in high school and college, who don't really go to clubs or follow dance music. They know who Skrillex is. They know who Avicii is. They have no clue who Sven Vath is.
Just for comparison...I typed in 2 searches in youtube just now. "Sven Vath New York" and "Skrillex New York." These are the first 2 live event videos that came up for each... I am not saying either is better than the other musically. I personally prefer Sven's music. But they cater to 2 completely different demographics. Skrillex's demographic is just so much bigger than Sven's these days.
EDIT: Besides the content of each video, look at the view count for each. Sven's video has a little more than 500 views. Skrillex's has 265...THOUSAND. Do the math.
