ID&T broke? No. ID&T lost the way? Yes.
Cancelled Ferry Corsten's World Tour, Marco V. In Charge and Johan Gielen's Lift Off on the radio, organizing Urban Events under the guise 4N, playing urban on the radio, having ASOT as only tranceshow...

But broke? Nah!

They have an entire Q-dance night (Thursday, followed by Thunderdome)... And Q Dance is from ID&T....

And no, TE will not come to the US.... It's because of your government and their fear of drugs.

ID&T Records = gonna be 'Be Yourself Music', First release is gonna be Ernesto vs. Bastian's 'Darkside of the moon'.

we dont call them ID$T for nothing


Posted by E-vangelist on Dec-28-2004 21:56:

they aren't broke, they are just changing their programming to attract a different type of listener who listens to music that is becoming (or they're trying to make become) more popular over there.

Sunshine Live (SSL) in Germany did the same thing, dropped Piet Blank (Blank & Jones)'s weekly show and several other "dance" shows in favor of more urban/top40 programming. it's happening all over europe I'm sorry to say...

fortunately there's some of us internet radio stations keeping the faith

Maybe trance is getting a bit less mainstream, which would be a good thing


Posted by basvh on Dec-28-2004 22:20:

no ID-t isn't broke. But id-t had a rough year. A few high points and some low points.

Competition is growing in the Netherlands and big parties aren't selling tickets as good anymore so the 3 big promoters (id-t, udc, q-dance) will have to do anything to attract enough visitors in 2005


Posted by jp on Dec-28-2004 22:29:

Not Q-Dance, their parties sell out one or two weeks in advance. But that's not a surprise: they try not to experiment to much with line-up and concepts, the sound and laser/lights are state of the art and the harder styles will always be popular.

ID&T and UDC are aiming at a house, trance and techno audience. This market is crowded with clubs, smaller parties and other competition. The ticket prices are also higher in this scene.

forgot to say the one thing i wanted to say :


i very highly doubt ID&T will go bankrupt, theyre name is way too big in european dance music, especially ther harder styles. ID&T has been one of the biggest respected icons ive seen in my last 9 or so years listenin to harder music.

maybe im wrong, but ill be saddened if they do go bust



I strongly agree with you.. ID&T is the name always been big in Hardest EDM Music all over Netherlands and Germany. They Started making an impact with Thunderdome & Mysteryland which really popularise the hardcore scene. Slowly it extends to other genres like Hardtrance and Hardstyle. Soon our dearest Innercity, Trance Energy, Sensation and Q-Dance was born.
I Hardly doubt that ID&T will go any near to bunkruptcy. Most likely it will just stay low for some moment. Irfan Van Ewijk, Duncan Stutterheim & Menthal Theo are the ones Behind ID&T but too bad they all left ID&T in 1992(Mental-T) 1994(Duncan & Irfan)

You got it all wrong.
ID&T arent quitting the stuff. Its quite the opposite, they have grown so big they have to split up the different parts of their business to be able to handle it. So dont worry.

They popularise, commercialised and killed hardcore


quote:
Q-Dance was born.


Q-dance was founded because of the growing popularity of oldschool hardcore, uk hardhouse and the upcoming hardstyl. It was founded by some friends of Duncan & Miles Stutterheim. I believe Duncan and some other ID-T people have some shares in Q-dance but Q-dance isn't ID-T. And Id-T doenst own Q-dance completly

Irfan and Duncan are still working for ID-T.
Mental Theo isn't the T in ID-T. Not 100% sure but 99& sure.
Mental Theo only compiled and mixed some thunderdome cd's

quote from id-t.de

"..three guys named Ifran, Duncan and Theo.."


Posted by basvh on Dec-29-2004 15:48:

Indeed the T stands for Theo. But not the dj/producer Mental Theo


Posted by jp on Dec-29-2004 17:13:

Theo Lelie

Mental Theo (Theo Nabuurs) made the Thunderdome CD's

There is only one thing which can make their company grow again, expand... Create huge parties all over the world, i mean, most non-dance-addict people in Holland get bored after a while with huge dance parties, so they stop buying tickets. Bringing parties like Sensation and Trance Energy to foreign countries will be fresh to all those foreign people, i bet the demand is enourmous.


Yes, those would be HUUUGE.
Sigh..Trance Energy Thailand....wishful thinking

when ID-T have shithot tunes like tulips and chocolate on their label i wouldnt worry about them going bankrupt, i just cant see it happening

Its truly sad the way some people get on, once music is recognised and popular with a significant group of people, the diehard "pioneer fans" suddenly find their style of music "uncool" and find something else to listen to. Truly sad. They then begin the whole process of setting a whole new trend or continue to critizise the music to death until absolutly nobody likes it again due to the slagging they get from their mates.

If everyone in the world liked dance music, no matter what style tomorrow, my world would be a much happier place and it wouldnt bother me in the slightest that the music had world support and recognition. Imagine the dance festivals!! It seams to me some people are just not in it for the music at all but to act "cool" with their mates, making them totally shallow and lame people with no lives.


damn your are nagging man. just see the facts mate. In the period 1997-1999 they (also some other promoters and recordcompanys) killed hardcore

They stoped broadcasting q-dance ,becouse q-dance isnt under ID$T anymore also they probbly want more hip hop and rap on the station


Posted by hardstyle on Jan-28-2005 20:06:

ok

Also i wish ID-T would start drum and bass events. Drum and bass is one of the styles what grows its popularity really fast all around the world. I wish id-t would promote Metalheads or TruePlayas night

poster above said B&N - also in Guitar Center

doesn't sound like bankrupcy to me, though. Maybe Tiesto bled them dry with his "Cult of 'Tiesto' in concert"?
