Roll up, roll up, it's time to crown your DJ Of The Year. Every weekend of every month in every year, we roll up to club doors in our millions to sample the finest dance music that the world's selectors have to offer.

The sets are getting longer (kind of), the artists are pulling off tricks and sorcery behind the decks with more prowess than ever before and new faces are joining the pioneers to supply some of the best sets we've heard all year.

Crowning our DJs of the year has always been a tricky one. The amount of gigs an artist has had in 12 months is usually a good indicator of popularity but then sometimes it doesn't matter how many times you've been booked, if you've got something special that allows you to stand out from the crowd, we want to shout about it.

This year we welcome back some dancefloor favourites alongside some outstanding burgeoning talent. If you haven't seen this lot play this year, then we're sorry to say you've been missing out. On the flipside, it means you've got 20 world-class DJs to put on your to-do list in 2019.

Let's go.
