jonattonyeah https://djmag.com/top100djs The state of Alok’s facial hair and who on god’s green earth is Timmy Trumpet? Haven’t heard of 80-rough% of these people. Congratulations to @zackster and @hugopal for number 54.
hugopal jonattonyeah there’s a guy on there actually called ‘Mr. Pig’ ?!?! It’s good to see Nina up there, and I also think Amelie Lens is pretty good as far as big-room techno goes, but Charlotte de Witte continuing to be the highest placed “techno” DJ on there is just baffling; pretty much every set and tune I’ve heard from her is just dull, dull, dull.
jonattonyeah Timmy Strumpet is apparently known for playing the trumpet over David Guetta tracks. All in.
Mad_Cyril Guetta I can get behind, he cured racism didn’t he, so that’s an all time pass. The rest looks like a list of who’s bestest at Instagram, except for Carl Cox, who’s clearly benefited from diversifying his portfolio into the Crocks game
Mad_Cyril SM001 Agreed, Chain Smokers aren’t even smoking and Claptone has blu-tacced a dildo to his face
Old-Dutch There was a time when DJs fell over themselves trying to get for votes in this poll. No anyone with any integrity should be embarrassed to be associated with it
hugopal Old-Dutch that’s partly true, but still, the more proper techno/house/prog whatever DJs on there instead of the mostly EDM bollocks giving DJing and electronic music a bad rep the better.
hugopal Here’s DJ Mag’s ‘Alternative Top 100 DJs’ list, featuring the more “underground” of those from the main list (e.g. CDW is no.1 on this) along with others who didn’t make it. Sasha down at 51. Diggers at 57 Dixon, fav of supposedly “ahead of the curve” Eddie Smalls all the way down at 80. https://djmag.com/longreads/alternative-top-100-djs-2021-powered-beatport
