DJ Mag & Beatport Present Alternative Top 100 DJs List

Each year, the DJ Mag Top 100 DJ poll. For 20 years running, the infamous poll has yielded in number ones from Martin Garrix, Armin van Buuren, Tiësto, David Guetta, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, Paul Oakenfold, and more.

This year, in addition to the original DJ Mag Top 100 DJs, there’s a new Top 100 DJs in town, and it’s presented by Beatport and DJ Mag.
