DJ Mag finally released the 2014 results of their popularity contest *ahem* I mean DJ polls and surprise surprise, Hardwell once again comes out on top, beating out fellow DJs like Martin Garrix, Tiesto, Avicii, and Armin Van Buuren.
I might have my personal opinions on the DJ Mag polls (It’s all rigged and full of people paying for votes) but regardless of how legitimate you think it is, you can’t argue that Hardwell doesn’t deserve to be at the top. Anyone who has ever been to a Hardwell show will tell you that his performances (note: I said performance, not mixing) is top notch.
So congrats Mr. Hardwell, you get to keep your belt.
