I honestly didn’t see it coming. David Guetta? I figured he would have topped out at number 2 but I guess working with lots of commercial rap/r&b/pop singers will get you more votes. I hope this doesn’t start a bigger trend of more commercial music that we already have in our massively expanding dance music scene. Well congrats to David Guetta and cheers to Armin van Buuren for a great run!

“The most important poll in dance music”

DJ magazine’s top 100 DJs poll 2008 is now three weeks away from closing, if you havent voted yet, click the link below…

http://top100djs.djmag.com/

Voters get a free track from Trackitdown and a digital copy of the mag as an incentive, so there is no excuse to not have your say.

You can vote for literally anyone (local DJ, favourite DJ etc..), and the poll is a 100% public vote, so the results show who really are the most popular DJs at the time.

Recent winners include Armin Van Buuren (2007), Paul van Dyk (2006, 2005) and Tiesto (2004, 2003, 2002).

The results will announced in London on 29th October.
