Paul van Dyk tops DJ Mag Top 100 poll

Paul van Dyk has topped the DJ Mag Top 100 poll for the first time, displacing Tiesto, who falls to second place in a record 123,955-vote poll.

The dance music industry descended on the Ministry Of Sound on Thursday night where DJ Mag announced its DJ Poll Top 100 for 2005. With some 123,955 clubbers voting (the most ever), Tiesto was knocked off the top after three years in the number one position, with Mr Paul Van Dyk taking his place - the first time he has ever topped the Poll. Tiesto slipped back into second place, with the rest of the top ten running thus: Armin Van Buuren (3), Sasha (4), Ferry Corsten (5), John Digweed (6), Hernan Cattaneo (7), Deep Dish, ATB (9) and Carl Cox (10).

Many of the usual suspects appear on the poll, with much of the top ten unchanged - though there were a handful of new names in the list too. The full 100 is at the bottom of today's Daily.
