we dont call them ID$T for nothing
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 
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
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.

| Originally posted by [N]�k|��[Z] 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 |
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.

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) ![]() |
quote from id-t.de
"..three guys named Ifran, Duncan and Theo.."
Indeed the T stands for Theo. But not the dj/producer Mental Theo
Theo Lelie
Mental Theo (Theo Nabuurs) made the Thunderdome CD's

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. |
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

| Originally posted by mixinmusic 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. |

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
