Over the weekend, DJ Mag gained more anti-fans than ever before following the “Top 100 DJs 2015” announcement.
In case you missed it, “Tomorrowland” residents Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike came out on top, despite being known for their sneaky campaign tactics.
Agreeing or disagreeing with the DJs/producers who made the list is one thing, but slamming the DJs/producers who rank somewhere in the top 100 is another thing altogether.
In a DJ Mag “Top 100 DJs 2015” biography entry for Kaskade, a writer called the DJ/producer out to be a douche. This is, of course, after calling him a potty-mouth and telling him to “please stick with the day job, mate.”
Now, Kaskade is known to be very vocal, never shying away from voicing his opinions online. That snarky write-up instigated a string of tweets from Kaskade, putting his notorious “potty-mouth” in full throttle. And in not so many words, made DJ Mag (or the writer who crafted his biography entry) up to be a joke.

Clowning me at #84. Ok. Cool. But calling me a pottymouth douche. A+ on the journalistic integrity. @DJmag

.@DJmag A bin marked “obscurity” would more likely be in the shape of a print mag that sells placement in a DJ Poll, no?

I’ll be here long after you guys are gone. Give me a call, I might need an intern. @DJmag

We stand by Kaskade on this. After all, one does not simply mess with Kaskade, America’s best DJ/producer 🙂
