With a year full of controversy, the day has finally come for the top 100 DJs to be announced. We here at Your EDM will be bringing you the live updates of the list. Even though not everyone may agree with the poll, we here at Your EDM try to think of it less of a popularity contest, and more of a reflection of the popular trends in the industry and an acknowledgment of hardworking DJ’s regardless of poll position
Earlier DJ Mag France announced via Facebook that they will be announcing the list, 20 DJs at a time every hour and the official DJ Mag twitter will be doing live tweet countdown. We will have all of that here. As well as the live stream below.

BL3ND! ARMY
Lolol
dj antonie… wtf
richie hawtin 76… offensive
Cosmic Gate and Mat zo Deserve to be way higher!
How can this be real? DJMag start the countdown in 1 hour. Where is this list from? Its not on the DJ Mag twitter or website?
i dont get why diplo is so low haha
what the fuck
DJMAG IS A LIE !
Yeah … Adaro and Gunz 4 hire ¡¡ <3
Mat zo 93?!? WTF?
Mat zo 93 ? What a shitlist is this
Paul Oakenfold and Cosmic gate so high? wtf…
Come on, 40th place for Animals only? Not hating or anything, it’s just not okay
myon and shane 54 should be at least top 25, stupidity.
Benny Benassi needs to go higher
Martin Garrix at 40 ? He is known only for Animals… it isn’t bad song, but…
Diplo should be top 25. In terms of DJ ability, music and live shows he’s fucking incredible. Mat Zo should WAY higher than where he’s at. Porter Robinson is top 15 easily, I’d even say top 10. Martin Garrix isn’t bad by any means, but to say that he’s above some of these other guys is a bit ridiculous. The kid has one hit track, yet he’s ahead of Benny, Stafford, Mat Zo, Porter, Carl Cox, Gareth Emery and even Madeon.
DJ BL3ND buys his fucking facebook likes and shouldn’t be on this list, even in this shitty state.

Infected Mushroom underneath Krewella is… just…………………… wrong.
if deadmau5 doesn’t win number 1, there is something very wrong with the EDM community… Not only has he been on his game with releasing tracks, but a DJ is supposed to play their own fucking music. I go see hardwell to listen to hardwell. Thats never the case. I go see deadmau5 to listen to deadmau5. and you know what I get? fucking deadmau5 music.
why is bl3nd even on this list? strong troll

Dimitri Vegas and Like Mike killin it at #AMF2013 … See you guys next wknd at Mansion Nightclub
I want to spit on this list seeing Eric Prydz at 54, disgusting, he is top 3, if not number 1!
Daft punk should be in top 10 because they don’t use computers to make music they are real producers….
Porter Robinson in 41? You are kidding me! He should be on the TOP!
why the fuck is daft punk 22 they need to be in top 10
Swedish House Mafia? Um… This is a little awkward DJ Mag, but, I was under the impression they were no longer together? I’m probably wrong, you know way more about this sort of thing than I do.

THIS LIST FUCKING BLOWS. Afrojack sucks, not sure what he’s doing in the top 50. Richie Hawtin at 76, that’s just disrespectful. Who is Aly & Fila?
You know this is full of shit when Above & Beyond didn’t even make the list. They are top 10 material…
KERNKRAFT 400!!!!!!!!!! What a tune!!!!!!!!!
a&b isnt even in the top 10?!?! guetta at 5 and avicii at 3….
This is seriously the worst poll since 2011
HARDWELL BABY!!!! #1 In the World!!!
Krewella needs to be way higher.
WHERE IS ABOVE AND BEYOND
what about 11-19?
dj bl3nd are u serious?
bassnectar ?
daft punk…really 22 …they arent really doing the dj circuit are they…
If Bassnectar isn’t on the list, the whole damn thing becomes invalid.
On what planet is Martin Garrix better than Porter Robinson?!
I really think kill the noise deserves a spot in here. His mixes are insane
Errr not Calvin Harris?
Hardwell is better than Armin Van Buuren? I don’t think so…
THE WORST DJ MAG TOP 100!!!!
hardwell at #1? this list is whackk
WTF Where is my PEGBOARD NERDS
In what world is Hardwell #1. How many songs has he produced. maybe 10? when legends such as Deadmau5, Tiesto, Eric Prydz, Kaskade have produced hundreds of songs. List is very disrespectful. EDM standards are sad these days.
I bet the Mau5 is happy it’s finally understood that he’s not a DJ. this was a good laugh though, anyone know when the legit poll comes out?
anyone notice how bauuer isn’t even on here? lol check the billboard #1 in more countries than any of these cats
Why the hell is Headhunterz not higher up on this list?
Skrillex? Is he even considered a DJ.
How the hell is Mat Zo all the way up there!!
dj mag is a fucking joke.
Krewella at 44?
Justice?
no tritonal? LMFAO WHAT A JOKE
the top dj list is a commercial & mainstream dj popularity contest and holds no merrit, except for people who are pretty much voting on name recognition. mainstream trance djs shouldnt even be in the top 10, because there is nothing more that can be done to the sound, it’s pretty much just bubble gum commercial garbage. even going bh main stream standards the dj list failed. hardwell is deserved, pete tong not even on the 100?! carl cox and hawtin so low! barwly any techno djs or deep house djs. lastly, there are too many too count amazing djs that should be dominating this list. thing is, those djs dont give a sh*t because they know, it means absolutely dick!
HAHA Infected Mushroom 53. WTF. ridiculously ridiculous
Where is morgan page? This is all a sham…….
….. Where is Boys Noize?
wheres my nectar
No excision?
angerfist nr1!!
david guetta: prtzzzz
guy’s before you all get up in a fit over the ratings you have to realize this is a popularity contest and not a skill contest. And i’m sure all of you remember from your High School days how some popular people can sometimes be the most dumbest vile humans alive. DJ MAG didn’t look at profit or ratings from peer dj’s or Festival plays or anything else besides asking random people (Who do you like?)
Campaigning for votes should be prohibited! Of course Hardwell got #1, “Vote for me” “Don’t forget to vote for me!” “Remember, vote for me!” “Hey everyone, 1, 2, tree, don’t forget to vote for me!”
This list is fucking hopeless…
This poll lost it’s legitimacy back at 2010 but the only good thing is dimitri Vegas and like mike..
they totally deserved it rock on guys 😉
More like top 100 producers! A lot of these dj’s have good tracks out but suck when playing live -____-
hardwell u truly deserve dis place…m/ m/…nd guetta shouldnt b on top 5 mahn..
Afrojoke over anyone is a disgrace. I’m not a big Calvin Harris fan, but the guy broke the record for most number 1 singles on an album and did $46 million last year. Something is very wrong here. People are sheep that voted on this list. They need two different lists. One for legitimate producers and one for DJs. Half of these guys use ghost producers.
Dillon Francis so low??? dumb… and kaskade is at 36??? what…. seeing steve aoki, kaskade, and dillon this past year… how is aoki even close to top 10??
Calvin Harris 15? He just broke Michael Jackson’s record for most tracks in the top 10 from any album ever and he’s 15. #fix
Um…. No one from circus records? Or Adventure Club? What
Dillon Francis should be higher.
34. Angerfist (y)!
Anyone complaining about the list should have voted. If your favorite DJ didnt make it then you should have voted. If DJs you dont like are higher than those you do like, too bad. I dont agree with the list myself but then again I didnt vote.
Where is WOLFGANG GARTNER!?!?!?
This is some bs for sure hardwell ?
Lol. Above & Beyond is below Nervo?This list is bad.. really bad. And Kaskade no. 36? Lol. Wow.
Gayest and worlds worst list. Commercial dj fags
Avicii 3rd are you serious?? Shouldnt be in top 50
This is a joke. Wheres zeds dead, bassnectar, excision, downlink, datsik, terravita?
Lol this is a joke where’s Bassnectar actually I’m happy he’s not on this for anyone who’s been to a nectar concert knows who’s really the best in the world he has the biggest following he really is the greatest of all time
What a joke of a list. How is this even pertinent to true success any more? I think a list showcasing SKILL at DJing would be a lot more beneficial… so Guetta & Garrix can gtfo.
This list is a absolute joke. Carl Cox #46?? Man things are really changing. Kaskade #36? Dj Bl3nd Above Mat Zo!?!? I give up I can’t take it serious
…and the award for best Marketing and Management team goes toooooo….
Daft Punk only 22nd?!
Steve aoki is… Nope not even gonna go anywhere it’s obvious. This was who has bigger Facebook and social networking reach and that’s apparent…
Where are the amazing female DJ’s??? There’s tons of them, top 100 is a tilted game board!!!! Support the Global underground, not these over rated, over paid, sell outs!!! Support Female DJ’s!!!!!!!!!! Top 100 limp dicks…….
Suck factor 98%. Underground talent blows this lot away, what happen to good music?? Who cares about this top 100 shit..
Skrillex above Deadmau5??? That moment when everything you believe in just unravels…….
Frontliner Needs to be higher! Zatox! Dj Adaro! Ran-D! Wildstylez! Anger Fist! Coone! D Block and S Te Fan! Their live sets are so awesome. Also Gunz for Hire (Ran-D & Adaro). That hardcore is the only time i have been in Moshpits at a rave. Q-Dance ftw! Love all the Hard Dance DJs on here. This list is getting better.
Congrats Hardwell for 1st. He dropped Hardstyle at Tomorrowworld at the mainstage. Hardwell – Spaceman (Headhunterz) remix.
You guys need to remember, its not the 100 best djs, its the 100 most popular djs.
52. Bingo Players
Why isnt Stimming or Arno Cost even here… They like better DJ’s then most… this list is not about talent, its about fame… AVB is better than Hardwell
good to see d.v.& l.m. at #6 ! dimitri vegas deserves it , not sure abut like mike
this is a sick joke. just to name a few that are not on here…SETH TROXLER, LOCO DICE,THE MARTINEZ BROTHERS,ANDY C,HEIDI,EATS EVERYTHING, LUCIANO, LAURENT GARNIER, MARK KNIGHT, SASHA,STEVE LAWLER, MAYA JANE COLES. not to mention SVEN VÄTH. You claim top 100 DJ’s. it should say most popular mainstream dj’s in the USA. Awful list.
This just shows how this poll has become more based on popularity than quality. Compare Intense with Revealed Vol. 4. You’ll see what quality is! Armin should have won if it were according to quality. But since the social networks got involved here, we’ll get to see people like Guetta and Hardwell on the n.1 spot. Tragic
TOP 20 according to me would be starting in descending order 20Skrillex 19 Mat Zo 18 Steve Aoki 17 Dimitri Vegas and Like Mike 16 Nicky Romero 15 Infected Mushroom 14 Eric Prydz 13 Gareth Emery 12 Ferry Corsten 11 Avicii 10 D3admau5 09 ATB 08 Aly & Fila 07 Dash Berlin 06 Andrew Rayel 05 Carl Cox 04 Hardwell 03 David Guetta 02 Tiesto 01 Armin Van Buuren……dont wanna be biased making armin van buuren win the 6th straight year but this guy is tremendous wid popularity and has taken the asot community to a whole new level …each of these artists travel across spreading muzik and people love them the dj mag list …i guess the results are pretty much manipulated…..What do u think ?
avicii better then Deadmau5 yeah right
Diplo really not even Datsik or Excision
I’m soo happy Hardwell won 😀 … but Martin Garrix should have been placed a little higher
Mat Zo is behind Tenashar. This list is officially a joke. I’m sure most people have no idea who Tenashar even is, more of a model than a DJ. This list is so insulting. Hardwell top is decent but how is guetta 5th? He did fuck all this year! Garrix 40th, happy for the kid, made some great tracks and had a couple brilliant projects done. Overall a bit of a comedy list though, there has to be a better title somewhere.

April Fooo.. Oh wait it’s October. Whoever wrote this list clearly only listens to Katy Perry.
NO ROGER SHAH?! Something seriously wrong here. Seems that in a lot of cases, money buys fake votes. Would love to see who was voted where without cheating. Desperate!
Why is Swedish House Mafia still in there?
Why is Swedish House Mafia still in there?
No Destriod or Excision. Not acceptable!!!
How the fuck did mat zo end up at #93!!!!
90% VOTING FOR THIS DJ mag ARE EITHER MAINSTREAM PEOPLE THAT DON’T KNOW SHIT ABOUT EDM FOR WHAT I CAN TELL THEY JUST VOTE BY JUDGING A FAMOUS SONG OR THEY ARE JUST HIGH AS FUCK WHILE VOTING THIS TOP 100 IS BAD ! , only thing good in it is that tiesto is 2nd and hardwell 1st thats the only thing done good !
holly shit tiesto’s only 4 th go fuck yourselves !
WHERE THE FUCK IS FEED ME C’ ON !
Tiesto came below the top three for the first time in 11 years?! Man, these things are allways surprising…
Prydz at 54, should easily be in the top 10, farce……
Hardwell no 1?? what a fucking joke that is….. Pryda no 54?? no wonder i dont buy DJ magazine anymore!!! Daft Punk DJing? when???? Name one DJ gig they have done and Deadmau5 has always said he isnt a DJ, so why is he in the poll??? lot of utter shite!!!!
How could…? Who voted for this, for real?? Do not agree at all.
Flux pavilion ???????????
seeing this list, i feel like somehow progressive house is making a comeback. i like this.
When will someone shoot this dj mag list in the face… what a joke
Gunz For Hire? BEST NAME EVER
Feed Me is not even on a list? Wow…
they need a top 100 dj/producer list. how does avicii release true and not move up in the rankings? this is madness
Ahahaha biggest load of shit ive ever seen. Diplo leads the music world today, he is the don of todays sounds…
Guetta on #5 ? Really? 😀
Love how shit like Nicky Romero places so high while talent like Fat Boy Slim doesn’t even make the list , it’s top DJ’s , not who can shit out the best radio hit
absolutely no love for any BASS genres…bull.
#87??? for real?? Tenashar? She won that spot because of her melons not by her music. Her music sucks and it really hurts that she destroyed the Adagio of strings of Tiësto and Animals of Martin Garrix.. -___- She looks more like an Asian porn star than a DJ.. swear!
Am I blind or is there no Bassnectar on here. This is a sad list of top 100 DJ’s…. Skrillex #11 wow…. pathetic
