Theo Parrish is just rediculous
Claude VonStroke is the most fun I've ever had listening to a house DJ
Karizma is fantastic
Sinden is brilliant these days too, lots of dark tribal tunes

Omar S
Patrice Scott
Big Strick (haven't heard any mixes, but saw him dj in Detroit recently)
Eric Cloutier
Luke Hess

Some recent favorites. House + Techno, but to me the best of each sound is actually both, like what the above djs play

Are people actually listing their favorite DJ'S they have actually SEEN or just from mixes etc?
The best 10 I have seen are

Ricardo Villalobos (The set I saw him play at Cocoon last year was absolutely fucking magical. No other DJ could have pulled it off.)
Luciano (Best moustache in the business, scatty latin wondrous tunes)
Von Stroke (Party DJ, pure and simple)
Sven Vath (Ultimate showman and entertainer and always has amazingly fit female dancers with him as a bonus)
DJ Sneak (VIBES)
Green Velvet (First saw him in a club called Voodoo in Liverpool in 2001, one of my heroes)
Jamie Jones (Caught him at DC10 in Ibiza 3 weeks ago, absolutely ridiculous scenes)
Loco Dice (Caught a 4 hour set by him last year in Liverpool and didn't move for the entire set)
Jesse Rose/Heidi (Have caught these back 2 back twice. They are IMMENSE)
Carl Cox (Because he is Carl Cox and he will do as he pleases)
