2009 Top DJ's


So the results are in of the Top 100 Dj's of 2009. After a crazy kick-off party, with sets from Above & Beyond, Armin Van Buuren, David Guetta, and Sebastian Ingrosso at Ministry of Sound in London, the results were announced. Of course the top few positions were held by trance Dj's, although they are very skillfull I am just not to sure how they get so many votes but I guessthey have huge fan base?!?! I have posted the top 5 and then other Dj's who I am a fan of, so here they are (2008 ranking listed in brackets):

1. Armin Van Buuren (#1-3 years in a row)
2. Tiesto (2)
3. David Guetta (5)
4. Above & Beyond (4)
5. Paul Van Dyk (3)

NOTABLES
6. Deadmau5 (11 - what he is doing to electronic music is amazing, he will be climbing this year)
14. Axwell (14)
20. Steve Angello (63)
25. Sebastian Ingrosso (103 - one of the biggest moves of all DJ's, well deserved)
26. Benny Benassi (39)
27. Laidback Luke (46 - not bad going from a nobody to #46 to #27, skys the limit)
33. Daft Punk (38)
34. Eric Prydz (21)
38. James Zabiela (17 - how did this happen, a very underrated dj)
47. Martin Solveig (? - couldn't find previous years but he was on the list?)
51. Kaskade (121 - another big move)
59. Dirty South (74 - amazing Aussie talent)
61. Mark Knight (42)
65. Justice (73)
68. Boys Noize (116 - watch out)
72. Chuckie (legend of the track "bass kick in miami" - couldn't find last years ranking)
84. Tocadisco (98)
94. Fatboy Slim (92 - a little bit to old for the game I think, or maybe it's now that he became "sober"...you tell me haha)

Dada Life - not even on the list (probably the most underrated) - you don't get to open for Tiesto on his world tour and not make this list! Good things coming for these guys!!!
