The DJ Mag Top 100 DJs Poll powered by 7UP has a new winner(s). Belgian brothers, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, the first duo to win the annual poll, were announced at the Amsterdam Music Festival (AMF), before performing in front of thousands of dance music fans. Commenting on the award, Dimitri and Mike said: “Thank you so much! Since day one we’ve put every bit of energy and time we can into our music and our shows in order to give the fans the greatest experience any DJ could offer. So it’s such an incredible honour to receive this award knowing it’s from the guys that matter most to us.”
The pair moved from No.6 to No.2 in the 2014 DJ Mag Top 100 DJs Poll. During the past year their movement in the festival scene has been prominent, playing Tomorrowland, EDC Las Vegas, Miami’s
Ultra Music Festival, Creamfields, and Mysteryland. Apparently, all 40,000 tickets for the launch of their ‘Bringing The Madness 3.0’ shows at Belgium's Sportpaleis Antwerpen sold out in under 40
minutes; a feat previously only managed by U2, Madonna, Beyoncé, and Michael Jackson. The pair have also sold out three forthcoming UK shows, including London’s O2 Brixton Academy.
With their debut artist album in the making, the pair’s recent hit with Ummet Ozcan, ‘The Hum’, is joined by current single, ‘Higher Place’, featuring Grammy award winner Ne-Yo, the track that’s
further shown their crossover status. It spent six weeks at the No.1 spot in the Belgian Charts, amassed views in excess of seven million, and apparently was one of the most worldwide Shazamed
tracks at this year’s festivals.
For the third consecutive year, the Top 100 DJs Poll Awards was held at the two-day Amsterdam Music Festival (AMF); returning for the second time to Amsterdam ArenA, the stadium for Ajax football
club.
This year’s Poll welcomes 21 new entries, 3 re-entries, and 7 non-movers. Oliver Heldens is the Highest House DJ, up 22 places. Diplo moves into the Top 20, and also
places for his Jack U project (with Skrillex).
Nearly 30% of the DJs in the Top 100 DJs Poll – 29, to be exact – are from Holland. The US isn't too far behind, with a smattering also from Germany, Belgium, Sweden, France, Italy, and the
UK. In addition, there are DJs from Russia, Australia, Switzerland, Ukraine, Central America, Malta, Slovenia, Israel, Portugal, Spain, India, Poland, Brazil, Egypt, Moldova and Canada.
