Opinion: Should technology replace DJ Magazine’s Top 100 DJs Poll? | Terry Church PR: "For a scene that looks so fervently into the future, electronic music sure is stuck in the past. Since 1997 Britain’s DJ Magazine has printed its annual reader-voted Top 100 list of DJs, that quite modestly, claims to provide the definite answer as to who is the No.1 DJ in the world.
This DJ popularity contest quickly became the decisive litmus test for dance music, despite its many flaws. The voting for this year’s Top 100 DJs Poll closes at midnight GMT tonight.
DJ booking agents and club promoters worldwide often use the poll’s results to set their artist and club entrance fees. The No.1 DJ in the world can generally charge more than the No.2 or No.3 DJ. And this means clubbers will have to pay more to see the No.1 DJ play a set, than any of the others in the list."
