Dutch DJ Martin Garrix grabs top spot in DJ Mag's Top 100 DJs third year in a row

Dutch DJ Martin Garrix has won the top spot in DJ Mag's "Top 100 DJs", for the third year in a row.

The 22-year-old producer is the third artist to top the list thrice, behind fellow Dutchmen Armin van Buuren and Tiesto.

Garrix was the youngest DJ to nab number one slot in 2016 and retained the title in 2017.

Garrix was awarded the trophy by DJ Mag managing director Martin Carvell on stage at the Amsterdam Arena, which took place during the Amsterdam Dance Event, reported Variety.

The DJ first came in limelight in 2013, courtesy his EDM track "Animals", and went on to work with EDM artists like Afrojack and David Guetta, as well as mainstream pop stars Usher for 2015's "Don't Look Down" and Bebe Rexha for "In the Name of Love" in 2016.
