There's no need for Calvin Harris to remove himself from the Forbes DJ Rich List throne, once again topping the table with the most riches.

The Scottish DJ and producer is at number one thanks to earnings of $66 million (£41.8 million) over the last 12 months, the same amount he pocketed over last year's period.

Although David Guetta's sitting in second place, he's got quite a way to go if he's going to pip Calvin next year, with earnings of $37m, while Tiësto's trailing closely with $36m.

After 95 shows during Forbes' recording period, Skrillex collected $24m (his highest amount yet), as did Steve Aoki. Also in the top ten are Avicii ($19m), Kaskade ($18m), Martin Garrix and Zedd ($17m) and Afrojack ($16m).

We reckon Calvin's got this wrapped up for the next few years.

1. Calvin Harris ($66 million)
2. David Guetta ($37m)
3. Tiësto ($36m)
4. Skrillex and Steve Aoki ($24m)
6. Avicii ($19m)
7. Kaskade ($18m)
8. Martin Garrix and Zedd ($17m)
10. Afrojack ($16m)
11. Deadmau5 and Diplo ($15m)
