Forbidden Paradise Series

What's your favourite? I've only just got them all so going to give them all a listen. I've heard that 7 is superb!! Are the early one's more acid techno?

Be careful how you describe them, I was in trouble with Rebel9 for calling the third one a mix of house, techno, hard trance & hardcore about a year ago.

I'd say the editions Tiesto are a good example that his recent diversity in styles is nothing new, but something that has been with him his whole career.

7 is pretty good, but i prefer 6... but that is due to Netherworld. My favourite tiesto cd from that time is Lost Treasures 2... might be worth a look if you enjoy hearing the FP series.

i like 7

6 for me

Bypass - Cyberia (Deep Trance Mix)

Cheers for the feedback so far! Well i've listened to 7, 8 and 9. 7 is pretty damn good. 8 is terrible and 9 is good. On 9 it's all about Musix - Do ya See The Light!!! Absolutely Gargantuan record!!! M.I.K.E doing what he does best!!

Easily four for me. 3,6,7 are all excellent too

i don't think i've heard them all, but i like 11 the most from the ones i've heard.

havent heard them all, but Forbidden Paradise 12 is my favorite.

That would explain Plankton's inclusion in the last round you made for the ID contest! ahaaaa

Tiesto only mixed 3 - 7, i believe the first two (which werent even really mixed) were compiled by arnie (forgot his last name) and 8 and 9 are mixed by Doc Fabian. My favorites were 5 and 7, and 8. The lost treasures were pretty good too but my favorite was the second one.

Oh boy, when I first joined this forum back in 2010, and when I first got into Tiesto back in 2007, I was way too novice and inexperienced to understand the forbidden paradise series. I heard a bit but quickly turned it off and listened to what was trending in 2008-2009.

Then i completely forgot about the forbidden paradise until present day late 2025. And holy shit this series is GODLIKE.

I might even dare say right now what I'm hearing in Forbidden Paradise 3 by DJ Tiesto is better than 90% of his Magik and ISOS stuff. Seeing that he mixed this back in 1995, it shows that he was in his very hungry area to make a name for himself. I mean, there was no Blackhole Recordings, no Sparkles, no Silence, no train that was Suburban yet. this is Tiesto purely mixing with pure classic acid, hard trance in its PUREST form mixed in with some people have said, even some gabber.

Truly magnificent. Major bump on this old thread but it deserves some attention imo. I'm thoroughly enjoying Forbidden Paradise 3 right now and cannot wait to hear the rest.

im just surprised nobody talks about it anymore because the last time I had heard about it was nearly 20 years ago and I just randomly thought about it out of luck. does anybody else here think it's worth another discussion in 2025?

Misja killed it with both 10 & 11.

Misjah ruined it you mean?

Also, does anybody know where I could download the entire forbidden paradise series, along with the lost treasures series? I cant find it ANYWHERE, not even the old torrent methods are working. If anyone could please upload the CDs for me somewhere, I'd greatly appreciate it. thank you

Just did a quick search on The Seeker Of Souls (soulseek), and they appeared there easily enough.

It looks like they�re available on YouTube. You can get a chrome extension to download them from their and then convert to mp3.

Nvm I got lucky downloading it thru the classic boomer (but still reliable) torrent tech hahaha.

In reply to you, I'm aware you can get it on youtube, but I didnt wanna settle with compressed down crappy sampled bitrate. Thanks for the suggestion though. I wanted the high quality rips, that's why. Anybody could download off youtube.... as a last resort though

Sorry should have realized this could have been misinterpreted. I meant they were really good. Especially 010.

thanks for the clarification, that means I'll need to give those a listen too

earlier today i listened to the 4th CD, only got about 25 minutes in but it was amazing. what i like is how much acid is in these mixes. tiesto didnt really play much acid at all when the magik series started, along with pretty much the rest of his career up until now. so hearing him play acid is something really interesting to me. really digging the forbidden paradise series. it's insane how underrated they are

I always felt they were very underrated. To me, 7 is one of tiesto's best mix cds ever.
