Most times when we go to a show, we really have no idea what the man behind all that magic looks like. Between the flashing lights, CO2 showers, confetti, huge head of the obnoxiously tall person in front of us and foggy sunglasses, all we can really focus on is what we're there for; the music. In a sense, DJ's have the best of both worlds. They have a tremendous fan base but also have the luxury of remaining unnoticed while sitting in an airplane terminal. We decided to put an end to all that anonymity by putting the spotlight on in our opinion, the five best looking DJ's.
1. Ryan Marciano: One part of the high energy duo, Sunnery James & Ryan Marciano, Marciano is the definition of eye candy. We can't figure out if it's the long hair, tanned complection, soulful sets or a combination of the three. All we know is that every time they're in town, we consider it a "Do Not Miss" event.
2. Kaskade: Ryan Raddon, better known as Kaskade, is an American DJ/Producer who melts our hearts with his melodic beats paired with soothing melodies. Angel On My Shoulder, Eyes, Raining and Don't Stop Dancing have definitely been on the top of some of our playlists throughout the past year. Last summer, Kaskade was the de facto ambassador of the U.S.'s first EDM tour, Identity Festival, and in June he kicks off his Freaks of Nature tour. Damn, we hope our future husbands look like this when they're 41.
3. Menno De Jong: Standing at 6'8", Menno De Jong is a giant sized music god, and who can complain about an extra tall guy? More height equals higher heels for us at electrolette. As one of the biggest names in trance music and the owner of Dutch independent Intuition Recordings, we can't help but drool over this super successful artist.
4. Tristan Garner: Two words: French Accent. Do we need to go any further? Following in the footsteps of Daft Punk and Cassius, Garner is the fresh, sexy face of French house music. His 2010 track "Fuckin Down" remains a staple of many house and progressive house sets, and we are continually treated with the sounds of Tristan Garner during his Xtra Life podcasts. Attention New Yorkers: Tristan Garner will be at Santo's Party House on May 5th.
5. Ferry Corsten: Aside from being a trance legend, Ferry Corsten is an unbelievably nice guy and total babe. There is nothing that covers our bodies in goosebumps like a euphoric trance song, and Corsten's discography is filled with them. From his 2006 hit, "Beautiful" to "Not Coming Down" on his 2012 album, Corsten's shows are a sure guarantee to be emotional and enlightening.
