Tiesto failed to retain his crown for the 4th straight year and drops down to second with Armin Van Buuren holding on to his number 3 spot from Sasha. Other movement in the chart saw roadtripping legend Carl Cox move into the top ten while Paul Oakenfold drops to 11th. The big shakers this year were trance trio Above & Beyond jumping a massive 20 places to 19th and Richie Hawtin up 32 places to 12th while new entry Infected Mushroom stormed into 26th. Notable losers this year were Christopher Lawrence down 7 and Sander Kleinenberg down 8 but both remain in the exclusive top 20 club. The announcement caps a great year for Van Dyk with his new album "The Politics of Dancing 2" receiving praise from the critics, us included. Be sure to listen in on Paul's latest mix set exclusively on InternetDJ and watch a video clip of the man himself DJ'ing in San Francisco. 01 - Paul Van Dyk +1 02 - Tiesto -1 03 - Armin Van Buuren NM 04 - Sasha NM 05 - Ferry Corsten NM 06 - John Digweed +2 07 - Hernan Cattaneo -1 08 - Deep Dish +2 09 - ATB +4 10 - Carl Cox +1 11 - Paul Oakenfold -2 12 - Richie Hawtin +32 13 - James Zabiela +2 14 - Christopher Lawrence -7 15 - Judge Jules -1 16 - Marco V NM 17 - Eddie Halliwell +8 18 - Erick Morillo +4 19 - Above & Beyond +20 20 - Sander Kleinenberg -8 21 - Markus Schulz +11 22 - Benny Benassi -4 23 - Sven Vath +11 24 - DJ Dan NM 25 - Danny Howells -5 26 - Infected Mushroom NE 27 - Roger Sanchez +10 28 - Mauro Picotto -1 29 - Gabriel & Dresden +12 30 - Steve Lawler -9 31 - Blank & Jones 7 32 - Yoji Biomehanika +1 33 - Chris Liebing -10 34 - Danny Tenaglia +6 35 - Nick Warren +8 36 - Dave Clarke +1 37 - James Holden -1 38 - Mario Piu RE 39 - David Guetta NE 40 - DJ Vibe +40 41 - Kai Tracid +28 42 - Bad Boy Bill -7 43 - Tall Paul 24 44 - Tiga NE 45 - DJ Yahel NE 46 - Andy Moor NE 47 - Ricardo Villalobos NE 48 - Ricky Stone NE 49 - Pete Tong -3 50 - Martin Garcia NE 51 - Frank T.R.A.X NE 52 - Timo Maas RE 53 - Laurent Garnier -8 54 - Desyn Masiello NE 55 - Victor Calderone +11 56 - Lisa Lashes -26 57 - Johan Gielen -29 58 - Matt Hardwick +1 59 - Misstress Barbara -10 60 - Fergie -2 61 - Armand Van Helden +23 62 - Michel De Hey +3 63 - Fatboy Slim -12 64 - Jeff Mills -17 65 - DJ Rush -2 66 - The Flash Brothers +5 67 - Adam Beyer -17 68 - Donald Glaude RE 69 - Dave Seaman -12 70 - Andy C -44 71 - Chus & Ceballos NE 72 - John '00' Fleming -20 73 - Satoshi Tomiie -25 74 - DJ Tatana NE 75 - Astrix NE 76 - Lee Burridge -20 77 - M.I.K.E.
