What's EDM without producers? While Evolution 101.7 has been around for a few weeks, there aren't many options for dance music lovers to hear the freshest in EDM. We know there are some pop stations that cater towards the obvious cuts, but without steady radio play, where does one turn to hear the biggest tracks? The DJ, obviously.

Over the last few years, with the increase of ease for anyone with a hard drive of MP3s to become a DJ, you end up with a massive amount of DJs. And while we'd never knock a local DJ hustling out weekend gigs, there are times where you have to separate the best from the rest. Or, in this case, the most important DJs currently matching beats. Be it their mainstream accolades, their influence on their respective genres, or just being the shit, here are the DJs that are towering above the rest of the competition.
