The list is back

The votes are in, and the Dj Mag Top 100 djs was announced a couple of days ago. Basically, it’s the same list as ever, and the Top 10 is just somewhat rearranged – some goes up, some goes down. However, there are some djs worth talking about on the list: The new entries!

The new entries on the Dj Mag Top 100 list:

Sebastian Ingrosso (25)
The highest new entry. It’s really weird that Ingrosso wasn’t on the list last year. As a higly respected member of the Swedish House Mafia, this guy really know how to make some sweet swedish house grooves.

Kaskade (51)
Ryan Raddon is the guy behind Kaskade, and he was one of the guys who cashed in on the chordy/Deadmau5 movement the last years. His last album release was a commercial hit, but it’s worth checking out tracks like “I remember”

Boyz Noize (68)
Very french-ish sound, but the guys is actually German and named Alexander Ridha. He got on a roll after the more dirty Justice-movement, but he makes it sound even better than the french guys!

Chuckie (72)
Originally a hip-hop dj that turned over to the darkside. Now producing electro house-ish stuff, and is on a roll by remixing guys like Bob Sinclar and David Guetta (Ca-ching!)

Sharam (73)
I was quite surprised to se Sharam as a new entry since he’s been in the game for quite a while. His music has quite an commercial approach (he’s the guys behind that dance-version og Daniel Bedingfield etc) and he’s riding the wave of the “club hiphop movement” that is going on at the moment.

Moonbeam (76)
Moonbeam is two young guys from Russia. Truly a fresh breath of air for all prog trance lovers (like myself). One to watch!

Marcus Scössow (79)
Marcus is one of our Innotune residents, and we’re all really proud of Marcus’ rise over the last years. He’s made a original and unique sound (which isn’t easy these days) and be sure to check out his new album. Congrats Marcus!

Super8 & Dj Tab (82)
Anjunabeats lads from Finland. Growly basslines and trancey melodies. You can’t have missed out on their releases the last 4-5 years if you’re in to fluffy trance.

Sied Van Riel (85)
Dutch trance dj (where else do they come from?) who’s been working really hard the last years putting out A LOT of releases and remixes. Great music for those bigger laser-events.

Daniel Kandi (87)
Full-on trance dj from Denmark. A Anjunabeats-guy and is true to the anjuna-sound. Arpeggios, saws and big melodies.

Myon & Shane 54 (91)
These two guys managed to put the word quality in to trance again. Chopped vocals, lots of details in their productions and lovely atmosphere in their tracks and remixes.

Antoine Clamaran (96)
Actually an old guy who’s been in to the scene for a long while. The French guys sure know their house music, and this guy is no exception. Probably got lots of votes from Russia this year as his track “Gold” was a bestseller over there.

Gui Boratto (98)
Gui is an Brazilian guy, and plays everything from house to techno. A true dj that uses a lot of new technology on his gigs. I haven’t seen him live myself, but he’s high up on my list of djs I want to experience live.

Alex Morph (99)
Alex has been involved in the trance scene for a looong while. He’s on the harder edge of trance music, and does it well.

So, 14 new entries in a list of total 100 djs. That’s a bit boring to be honest. But at least you got a list of new artists you should check out, because these artists truly are the most interesting ones on the list!

Ps: We’re not taking any sides in the Tiesto vs Armin thing. To be honest, we don’t really care that much either. We think both Tiesto and Armin are good sports and have a laugh at this one. We sure laughed.
