DJ Mag - Top 100 DJs 2011

[UNIFITE]

Guys.. David G won the #1.. End of story. As long as people are talking/complaining about it will only be good for him.. Personally i think that David Guetta has a lot to thank him self for, by getting this far in the business. His ideas just doesnt come from other people, but also himself i think.
Regarding to those who say that he doesnt belong in the DJ Mag top 100 because he went pop. You cant say EDM, and then say POP. Things go in hand now a days. The tracks with Rihanna, Usher and so on are produced ELECTRONILLY. So it belongs there. There is a kick, and a bassline. Just like trance. Why arent people instead complaining about Tiesto then? -He has by far went even more pop if You look at his past. Went from Lethal Industry/Traffic/643 to C´Mon with Busta. Thats a even bigger change of style compared to David G.

EDM is going big, also the harder part of it. Enjoy thatm instead of focusing on all the negative stuff.. My 5 cents..

I really don't see how popularity makes any artist good. It makes him popular, not quality.

But what is quality? because you don't like his music it ain't quality.

Every year lots of people complaining about the djmag chart. It's not the best dj is the most popular dj. But what is the best dj? If most of the people who voted think he is the best dj, may be he is? But just because a couple don't like him he can't be the best dj. Music is something about taste, there isn't a standard of what's good and what isn't.

i strongly disagree that quality is a subjective term.

In visual art, everyone knows that Dali is quality. Noone will say that american teenager comedy is more quality than Stanley Kubrick. Most of people know that food from expensive italian restaurant is more quality than mcdonalds. But heeeey, with music is only about your opinion! Thats bullshit. In music, quality is simply something you feel when you listen to A LOT of music and you are not musically deaf. And calling sellout radio music without any real soul quality makes me laugh.

Some people like mcdonalds better than some fancy expensive restaurant food. Some people like A, some people like B. To some, commersalized pop/house is quality while [whatever you see as quality] isn't. It's all subjective.

But if you look at what it is made of, you will find out that better food is at the restaurant. no matter if you like it or not. that's just better.

yes. but that is about opinion or taste, not about quality. noone is dumb enough to call mcdonalds quality food. Quality is a factor that lies beyond opinion.
