AUSTRALIAN DJ FORUMS

For the third year in a row, Armin Van Buuren was crowned the number 1 spot on DJ Mag’s Top 100 DJs list.

After an incredible year filled with sold out gigs worldwide, his 72 hour live ASOT 400 celebration featuring massive guest DJs, and his ‘A State of Trance’ radio show that consistently brings in millions of listeners every week, Van Buuren most definitely earned his #1 spot. His reaction to taking home the gold? “I’m thrilled and deeply honored, it feels like winning a gold medal at the Olympics,” he says.

Tiesto remains in the second spot while David Guetta knocked Paul Van Dyk to number 5 by setting up shop with the big boys in the top 3.

1. Armin Van Buuren

2. Tiësto

3. David Guetta

4. Above & Beyond

5. Paul Van Dyk

6. Deadmau5

7. Ferry Corsten

8. Markus Schulz

9. Gareth Emery

10. Sander Van Doorn

hmmmm. maybe it wasnt meant to be free? oops i defintely dont condone jacking tracks, but i could swear i copped this from the stones throw records website....

record label sites was pretty much the only place i get free downloads everything else is paid. anywho, check stones throw records site first (i'd check and link it but im behind the great wall right now).

the reason why these guys get the top every year, is because they have a big following, not because they are good.

i mean deadmau5 isnt even a dj.

this shouldnt be a best dj of 2009 it should be the best rockstars or electronic music.

i mean ive got people that play at the same club as me that could shred some of those guys.

fucking commercialism

Pretty much right... But i see where Johnny is coming from too... ive been to lots of festivals like most music fans, and i rekn some of the best dj's for making the crowd go nuts are some of the local ones... I wonder if there will ever be an aussie in the top 10... Gives us all somethin to aspire to i suppose. I reckon we should all pick our top 10... or even Top 5... u choose Mr Caleupe... peace

yeah but like i said, people arnt going to see them because of how great their skills are, they are going because they play thr crowd, the top 10 should be made from dj's that battl in the DMC comp

hey jonnyb as freaking awesome some of those dmc ninjas are, not all can party rock though.

that being said some have managed the transition quite well. a-trak is cool az. and craze is a madd mofo. goes from miami bass to dnb to downright mental, as long as it has bass!! loved his fabriclive set (which was more commercial then some of his dub, i think, mixes). kentaro also rules too, but he still sticks to his wigga wigga roots a little stronger, buti love his reggae influence.

my top 10 that ive seen would be

10.ajax - not as good as used to be but when he was, he was the best.

9.excision

8.z-trip.

7.atrak

6.mustard pimp

5.skream n benga

4.grandmaster flash

3.hijack

2.afrojack

1.Jack beats(using 4 cdj's 2 turntables and 2 mixers and actualy using all of them...THAT is skill )

now ive kind of conrtadicted myself here. as maybe 2 or 3 of these dj's i picked purely on the music they played not there actualy dj skill :)
