The top 10 DJs Of 2015
This year's cream of the crop
3 Black Coffee
Perhaps it wasn't until his astonishing, life-affirming Mixmag Live gig that we fully realised just what a musical force of nature Nathi Maphumulo truly is. From Soweto to Circoloco to SW4, he lit up everywhere he played like sunrise over the veldt.
2 Four Tet
His £5 all-night sell-out gig at Brixton Academy in October highlighted Kieran Hebden's journey from percussionist to DJ master. Massive international festival gigs combined with intimate club performances - like his epic closing set at Plastic People (with Floating Points), perhaps the mix of the year.
1 Tale Of Us
The undisputed must-see DJs of 2015, Tale Of Us's emotional, operatic techno defined the year in dance music. From Ibiza to Coachella, theirs was the must-hear sound, moving dancefloors and melting hearts everywhere they played.
