Update: Found this video on Trance.nu and figured it was worth an add to this story. Trance.nu brings you the top 100 DJ magazine awards for 2006. Filmed at Fabric, London, on October 25th 2006.

The truly global reach of DJ culture was once again highlighted with votes coming in from 229 different countries (there are only 243 recognised countries in the world).

The USA provided the most votes in 2006, closely followed by the UK, and then Germany.

But there was also a sharp increase in voters from Brazil, Israel and Canada.

The next 150 DJs who didn’t make it into the poll will be revealed exclusively on DJmag.com on 8 November 2006.

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. Out Now.
