Interesting point...

"Why? I think trance nowadays is a dirty word. If you play trance, then you play predictable breaks, large drum rolls, cheesy vocals. And that is so ridiculous. Trance for me has a totally different definition. I'm not afraid to call my music trance-- its not cheesy, its not predictable, and it doesn't have vocal cheesy break downs. It�s just good music. I had a discussion about it with Pete Tong. I said �Pete, now be honest. I mean, we all agree that pure progressive tribal is boring. And trance is cheesy. But still, most of the people listen to either progressive or trance, and a little bit of techno. So what's the ideal music? Apparently a combination of the three!� And that's what I want to do"

AMEN TO THAT!!

�I think dance music is a beautiful thing, it's a great thing, and that's what I want to show the world: dance music can really bring people together. We're living in a very tough time, and tough times have always been. Its just about showing people we should not be sitting at home being scared for whoever we should be scared for, its about going out, its about meeting people, having a great time with your friends-- that's what life is about. It�s not about bullshit or whatever. So I challenge people to come to my shows, see what happens, not to me, but to your friends, to all the people in the club.�

man, i always had a crush on armin... but now i think i'm in love.

great interview. thanks for the link, jewels.

He's trying to make a point. He plays what he plays and that's what he does. Besides, I'm willing to hear his stuff and collect what I hear is great.

That's all I can say.
