Judge Jules's value is still blowing me away, the same as Sasha what the fack!? and that Daft punk combined makes them number 2. Bastards haven't put anything good out since Alive or even toured since :(

Commercials, Ads, Movies etc, they're go-to name for "popular electronic band" for people outside EDM. Their publishing deals are rediculous. So were/are most artists connected to Pedro Winter. Mans good at managing his acts... Even after he leaves theyll keep making money because how ubiquitous he makes their name

I can't believe generic DJ A is ahead of slightly less generic DJ B and I am outraged that experimental DJ C isn't even in it

I dunno I only heard of him within the last few months, but now I see his name everywhere. I'd guess he's a savvy businessman,

Yeah I mean I've known about him for probably a year or 2 but I feel like he's got to have been around longer than that to be worth that much money.

Sasha was the biggest DJ in the world for a long time during the 90s/00s. Him and Digweed were massive on both sides of the Atlantic, they had their Delta Heavy Tour, Twilo residency, prog house was straddling the world like a sentient being shitting 10min long drum patterns all over the place...he was commerically viable, did the music for the first Wipeout game, remixes of chart/pop artists...

...in short, that kind of legacy would equate to some serious bank.
