 LONDON, UK (Top40 Charts/ DJ Mag) - We always tend to look at the DJ Mag Top 100 poll with a little bit of skepticism as our tastes tend to run a little bit more high brow. Nonetheless the populace has spoken. Although the idea that Tiesto would have somehow fallen from his mighty post to be usurped by Paul van Dyk seems a bit off and some of us here think that it may be a conspiracy plot to cover up last year's debacle when Tiesto cancelled his gig at the DJ Mag Top 100 party and was properly slagged off by DJ Mag scribes. Onto the results - DJ mag reports a staggering 123,933 dance music fans voted in DJmag's 2005 Top 100 DJs poll. That's 33,000 more than last year and a true indication that dance music is still a massive global phenomenon. The truly global reach of DJ culture was once again highlighted with votes coming in from 147 different countries. The USA provided the most votes in 2005, closely followed by the UK, and then Germany. There are interviews with all 100 of the DJs that made it into the poll in DJmag's special collector's edition of the magazine.  DJ MAG Top 100 DJs 2005
