Founded in 1991 as a print magazine in the United Kingdom, DJ Mag has evolved into the world’s leading media brand dedicated to electronic music. Initially starting as a publication focused on the dance music scene, the brand has expanded its operations significantly over the last three decades. It now encompasses a diverse range of products including print, digital media, video, broadcasts, awards, and events, all driven by a mission to celebrate electronic music in all its forms from every part of the world. Headquartered in London under Thrust Publishing Ltd, DJ Mag has established a massive global footprint with a monthly reach in excess of 72 million people. The organization operates a network of international editions serving regions such as Asia, China, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, North America, and South America. This global presence allows the brand to connect with a vast community of music enthusiasts and professionals, maintaining its slogan of "living & breathing dance music." One interesting fact is the magazine's significant influence on the industry through its reader-driven polls. The publication organizes the renowned "Top 100" and "Top 100 Festivals" votes, which engage its audience in recognizing leading talent and events. These annual rankings, alongside awards like the "Best of British," underscore DJ Mag's role not just as a news outlet, but as a central pillar in the culture and community of the global electronic music scene.
