Top DJs of 2018

Love clubbing and music? Here are some of the top DJs that enjoyed continued success in 2018:

Skrillex

From the mid-2000s, Skrillex, otherwise known as Sonny John Moore was busy putting out records in an emo-rock genre. Since going it alone, his electronic music career has been much more successful. Since changing genres, he’s now virtually a household name and put that name to a whole genre of his own.

The Chainsmokers

They actually don’t smoke at all but have despite their unhealthy moniker, they have rocketed to stardom and the pinnacle of the DJ industry. They have sensibly collaborated with some big names in the music world which has undoubtedly aided their exposure and success.

This is a name that’s been around for more than a decade in the trance scene but who has since broken into the electronic dance music market. This is evidence of his top standing in the music world and despite being a part of the early days of the movement and the older generation of club goers, he is still filling dance floors across the world.

Tiësto

Amazingly, this DJ has been on the scene for 30 years with no signs of taking his foot off the gas. Offering club goers, a combination of pop and trance, he has gained new fans to add to his existing loyal fan base. In 2014, he was the highest paid DJ in the world, earning a whopping $22 million!

Calvin Harris

One reason for the rise of this Scottish master is his effortless combining of pop and dance music. He hit the scene in 2007 and has a deep affection for the 80s decade, but is loved by fans of dance music of all ages and is still going strong over a decade later.

David Guetta

David Guetta has been around since the nineties as a music promoter but since then, his solo career has gone from strength to strength. He has worked with a whole host of top singers and his collaboration with Kelly Rowland in 2009 was declared the best dance-pop song of all time by Billboard.
