| #6 / Fri, 14 Nov 08 23:03 quality idea, will definately be voting in this. as said above - it'll be good to see a dj poll not decided on how many fans a dj has - or people that simply vote because they clicked an e-flyer telling them to do so!

Posts / 176 RA Since / Mar 2008 Location / Dublin | #7 / Sat, 15 Nov 08 01:26 Nice work At least really talented djs and producers will get some recognition in the form of a poll.Though we know how good they are. I read on a trance forum the other day and to quote them: "Who the hell is Ricardo Villalobos,he sounds like a cartoon character" They are missing so much from their musical lives,

|
| #17 / Tue, 18 Nov 08 22:21 DJ's best DJ would be good in theory, but the reality is they will all vote for their mate or someone off their label. you only have to read the DJ Mag Top 100 issue and they are all at it

| #27 / Wed, 19 Nov 08 12:18 Craig Richards took the top spot for me.. no-one else has impressed me more on a consistant basis. Ricardo will probably (and also deservedly) win though.. thus taking my number 2 spot.

my bets on ricardo
Mine too... Overhyped IMO. Controversial, I know. Would be good to see a lesser known DJ win it...

No good music,

Does it make a difference? Is it not about the end-product, aural pleasure and smiling faces??!!
