We've had countless threads asking how much DJ X makes. Now we have an idea. In 2011, Tiesto grossed $23 million, according to this video:

Clearly I picked the wrong career.

I'm not really interested in how much the mega-jocks earn. They all obviously earn millions and the precise number isn't really important. What I'd like to find out is how much the mid-level DJs earn, the ones who are respectable names in their own scenes but hardly globe-trotting superstars.

To be humble although successful?

Both Armin and Tiesto to me always look like they act 'normal' and Tiesto even now still looks kind of uncomfortable.



Cool he mentions Belgium and... well something like this :)

I think it's very genre dependent. Supersaw Trance for example seems to be horribly inflated, compared to other genres. I don't know if this helps, but I know for a fact that 2 years ago, you could book anyone in the Dubstep scene, even Skream for 2k a set.

I could probably safely say...not a single person on tranceaddict that posts more than 3 times a week makes anywhere near 23 million..let alone even 1 million
