"This feels surreal," says Armin van Buuren, now back on top of the DJ Mag Top 100 after a year off to let David Guetta keep his throne warm. This is the fifth time he's been voted the world's No.1, now streaking ahead as the DJ to have swiped the title the most times. Whichever way you slice it, it's an impressive achievement.
"I thought that was it, and house music was taking over," he says of Guetta's triumph last year, briefly breaking the proliferation of the Dutch trance master. "I've been really impressed by a lot of the new house guys, and I've been to a lot of house gigs over the summer. All that new energy that they're bringing, I thought 'OK, this is the future'."
Brave words, but that's not to say van Buuren was mulling a change of direction. "2012 has been one of the best years ever for trance music," he says. "Maybe that's because the focus has been on house music. It feels that trance is somehow more free."
