What agencies represent the names on the DJ Mag Top 100? Using data from
Booking Agent Info’s music industry directory, we mapped every artist on this year’s list to the agencies that book them, and the picture that emerges is one of heavy concentration at the top and a surprisingly long tail underneath.

THE·TEAM leads the field by a wide margin with 29 artists on the list, nearly a third of the entire Top 100 under one roof.

WME follows with 19, then UTA with 15 and CAA with 14.

Together those four account for 77 placements.

B4 sits just behind them with 7.

Beatside follows with 6.

Active Talent Agency, Supermodified and Connected Artists each have 5 artists.

ACE Agency, Analog Agency, Anna Agency (celebrating 30 years this year), David Lewis and Liaison Artists each land 4.

SPIN Artist Agency follows with 3, and a group of agencies including TMRW, IAG, CS3 Agency and Deepbloe Agency each represent 2.

More than twenty agencies have a single artist on the list, from 3A Artists Agency, Assured, Mac Mac, PM Only and Alegria to Oltre, One World Artists, Prisma, Vesuve, Sirup and YAP Agency Amsterdam.

One thing worth pointing out is that the totals add up to well over 100. That’s because many top DJs work with different agencies in different territories, with one agency covering North America, another handling Europe, and others running Asia or Latin America.

The same artist can show up under three or four agencies, which is a reminder that a global DJ career today is usually built by a network of agents rather than a single one.
