It’s that time of year again, when tempers flare and questions are raised about, “Why isn’t my favorite DJ number one?!” Yes, the DJ Mag Top 100 is being revealed today. We’ve already put out our own predictions for the top 10 this year, which has Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike regaining their #1 title over Martin Garrix. But in reality, who knows!
This year has been through the ringer as far as upsets, newcomers, and lapses. Plenty of DJs have been taking breaks from touring that would have them out of the public eye compared to past years, while plenty of others have ramped up their touring and are in front of more people than ever before.
Touring isn’t everything though, as producers also have to release music consistently to keep their fanbase engaged. How often a producer releases music varies from individual to individual, but safe to say that if someone hasn’t released a song all year, they probably won’t fare too well on the list.
DJ Mag is announcing the Top 100 live on Twitter right now! See the full list UPDATED LIVE below as we approach the final #1 DJ of 2019!
