well deserved #1 if you ask me!
So he didn't do this?

I can agree with this, I've seen him once and it was amazing. Very solid track selection. As for Maya, she's good but not that good. Hawtin deserves his spot in the top 10 always.

Seth Troxler is good, I don't know about #1

Hawtin who finds a way to make it something special.

Comments on the RA community are hotting up - very divided opinions on Troxler, Maya, Art Dept, Maceo Plex and Tale Of Us. Consensus seems to be that Troxler is too erratic to be a worthy winner and that the 'new guard' are not yet tried & tested. A lot of (good) comment on the likes of Digweed & Sasha placing as high as they did. Lots of support for Hawtin in 2nd place.

Seth Troxler is good, I don't know about #1 or even top 20 good though. I've seen Maya a couple times and similarly while good I don't know about top 10. Also feel similarly about Tale of Us- their set I saw was good, a bit on the boring side, but not really anything too remarkable DJ wise. RA users seems to be pretty heavily biased towards that new deep house sound though so I'm not too surprised the top ten has a seemingly random handful of them.
