Every year, DJ Mag conducts a polling poll to find out who they are, the best DJs of the world 2015. More than 350,000 people cast their votes for their favorite musicians (the list has up to 30,000 names), and 10 million are carefully studying the results. The ranking of DJs in the world in 2015 is taken into account by both the employing clubs and the musicians themselves.
The profession of a DJ can be very profitable. Kelvin Harris earned $ 66 million last year. And in 2017, he became the highest paid DJ in the world with an income of $ 48.5 million.This amount includes fees for live performances, money from the sale of company paraphernalia and albums, as well as personal income of the musician (from personal collections of clothes or participation in advertising). And it also allows you to travel around the world, although the mode of performances can be extremely intense.
DJ Steve Aoki, one of the lucky ones in the top 100 DJs of the world in 2015, played 277 sets in 12 months (sometimes three times a day). As Steve himself says, he had to master the art of the so-called "Powerful sleep" - he can completely rest in just 2-3 hours of sleep during flights between performances.
