During that year, he won BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix of the Year Award, as voted by listeners of the show, and Music Week's re-mix of Year Award for Louise's "Naked".He remixed several UK top 40 hits during his career with artists such as Taylor Dayne and East 17. Between 1994 and 1998 his popularity with the clubbing public was rivalled by only Paul Oakenfold and Carl Cox. In September 2010, Mixmag UK announced the nominations of 35 DJs chosen by other big names in the world of dance music as those they considered the best DJs ever. A subsequent 15-month survey, which polled hundreds of thousands of global votes, asked who was the "greatest DJ of all time" and when the result was announced in January 2011, Tony was ranked number 9 in the world. Tony played many clubs in his time, however he really was considered 'Best of the best' at Trade at Turnmills, London, to which he still has a huge faithful fan base.

With extensive, film and theatre credits as well as appearances in clubs, parties and dinners across the UK, Dave Lynn never fails to dazzle crowds.

Other featured credits include a cameo in the highly acclaimed feelgood movie, Beautiful Thing.
