in other words he's nothing more than a jukebox... i believe if you're a dj you should be playing what you like as a way of expression, not just please the crowd cause they wanna hear the latest cool tune on the dancefloor charts... becoming #1 dj in the world doesn't make you 'smart'... it's who you know and how they market you... the rest like 'fergie' and 'picotto' and nothing more than marketed tools who play dancefloor friendly tunes... i really doubt in 5 years time those tracks are going to be held in any regard... it's just whats cool now...

i checked that list of top 50 dj's and the only decent one there is Jeff Mills... read his bio check his history and listen to his dj sets (do download his dj sets his skills rip shit through tiesto)... Mills worked hard to where he is now not to mention he actually pushes new music and sounds... Sure it might not sound the best but he's trying very hard to push new sounds and not that generic crap... Some people might say chalk n cheese cause Jeff Mills and Tiesto are different genre's, but you did state 'techno'/trance...
