Charlotte de Witte was crowned #1 Alternative Top 100 DJs 2020 by DJ Mag and Beatport. Rising from last year’s #7 position, the techno artist has dethroned the title from Carl Cox who has reigned at the #1 position since the list launched in 2018.
2020 has become a monumental year for de Witte who also climbed a defining 42 spots to land the #34 position on this year’s Top 100 DJs poll. Having debuted at the #76 position in 2019, her rise has granted her this year’s title of “Highest Climber” and “Highest Techno DJ” in the 2020 poll.
“It’s probably the strangest year to become No.1 DJ since no one has really been DJing…but yeah, it does mean a lot. It’s a big, big, big milestone.”

The Alternative Top 100 DJs list is curated by DJ Mag in collaboration with Beatport by combining votes in the Top 100 DJs poll with house and techno sales data from Beatport to determine the top house/techno DJs in the world. This provides an “alternative” to the Top 100 DJs poll, which tends to be dominated by EDM and Trance DJs. For additional information on this year’s list and artists, please visit DJ Mag’s official website.
