This ain't DJ MAG Top 100 trance dj-s you know. Even though if it was for me all the guys you mentioned would be top 10 xD
People are being a bit elitist moaning about Guetta being #1. He is #1 because he is THAT popular. You might not like it (and some of his newer tracks are pretty shit indeed), but he single-handedly changed house. For good or for bad, that is not for us to decide. If it was my choice, I'd have Markus Schulz as #1. :/
Or, as Gareth Emery puts it,
What's the future of DJing? The end of this obsolete fascination with genres. Just let the good music speak.
Let's admit it - it's DJMag, and any connection to high quality is theoretical at best. Another popularity contest, and people are raging that the mainstream names are at the top, headed by the most mainstream of them all. Hell, this isn't even a contest of DJs. A huge chunk don't DJ, they play their own music live - and while admirable, it's still hilarious that they're even considered as such.
