For pure DJing, there are very few I even bother downloading or following anymore. They are:

Wighnomy Bros. (best DJs on the planet, period)
Seth Troxler (my personal fave right now)
Butane (consistently rocks me)
Magda (a little weird right now but always good in the past)
Hawtin (same as above)
Luciano (classic)
Dinky (really getting good lately)

Villalobos, Hawtin, Dice, Raresh, Rhadoo. Jeez.. pretty original.. Luciano.

Villa is the king for me. Original tracks, weird mixing and always having fun behind the decks!

Richie as always pushing things forward with technology but wonder where he would be if he was spinning only vinyl without tricks. Never heard that from him. Am from 85 ;)

Dice has this warm flow in his sets. Always pick me up.

Raresh, pump up the jam!

Luciano, bleading dead last year, I hope he's up for some freshness this year. I've heard all those house tracks more than enough by now!
Not only by him,but also the guys that copy Luciano.

No offense for the tracks which are pure magic but enough is enough.

Rhadoo is more like the replacement of Luciano for me when it comes to that part with fresh old-school ;)

Jeff Mills for the technic & his knowledge of electronic music

Magda beacause she's the queen of groove

Troy Pierce because (for me) he has some years ahead.

DJ Godfather for his dexterity

a few people have mentioned craig richards but i've heard some very boring sets along with some very good ones. Last time i saw him he played after zip and he was totally useless.
