First of all, I want to give all of you who voted for me in the DJ Mag Top 100 this year, I cannot thank you enough for putting one of your valuable votes my way.
I know I’m not going to place within that top 100 yet, after all I don’t play out several times a week, I don’t travel worldwide and I don’t produce my own music. Hell, with the number of DJ’s that DO play worldwide every week, I didn’t think I had a fighting chance of placing anywhere even slightly decent. If I came within the top 10,000 I’d have been happy, the fact that I placed 1816th is a testament to all my loyal supporters.
Now 1816th still seems quite high, but when you consider last year there were over 60,000 artists that were entered last year (I don’t know the official figure), my position bec0mes that much more substantial. One of my favorite production artists, Klauss Goulart, known worldwide with massive tune releases on Armada, Flashover, ColdHarbour Records and High Contrast, placed 6 positions below me at 1822nd.
In my opinion he should have placed far higher than that as most of his tunes are absolute gold, but the fact I’m in a similar position makes me incredibly happy and means I’m doing something right for sure.
So again, for anyone who voted for me, thank you for your continued support, your kind words and your encouraging comments and hopefully I will continue to keep you happy and entertained. For those who didn’t vote for me, all I can say is listen to my music, come and see me play live and hopefully I can make a big enough impact that you’ll consider voting for me next year!
Vic.
Well deserved! You may not travel the world each week, release tracks and all that jazz, but you love what you do and each mix and gig you play is quality (instead of quantity).
Keep up the good work
