That has nothing to do with Ferry's mix. I do have a "Adagio for Strings 'Remix'" Whitelabel here (according to discogs, this is a mat silver vs. tony burt remix), which i like very much.

IMO Tiesto's stuff since Traffic is througout cheese, apart from tracks like "Walking on Clouds", but those are collaborations.




well that's nice then. i must say that your definition of cheese is a bit different than mine. i'd classify dj sammy and lasgo and such as cheese, maybe some of todays euphoric trance too, like above & beyond, armin and all that crap asot fluff.
i dunno how this is cheesy or traffic either. i just can't really find anything cheesy in them. i can understand that you don't like them though, but i'd say that most of today's trance is much cheesier than the stuff ti�sto puts out.

phynn remix, dj danjo & styles remix and fred baker remix all are pretty crap IMO. ti�sto's original IMO is still the best version. i hope they'll release the full version on some cd single now then so i could get it finally.



scanned this in


going to review it on monday, but right now the Danjo & Styles rmx is my favourite, prob 8-9 ish, fred's sounds unusually tacky and would be about 6/10 and phynns is ok but nothing amazing, also 6/10

btw cd single is on Nebula in the uk

I like the Danjo & Styles remix the most by far... can't say I enjoyed what I've heard of any other of the other mixes released under the Ti�sto artist name so far


Posted by Dj Gracjan on Mar-19-2005 14:30:

its an ok mix....i really expected way more from phynn, lots more melodies and stuff....the tune itself is nice..the transition into the main melody kinda sux for me....

all remixes of this tune are terrible. the only one i kind of like is the Danjo & Styles remix.

really like the cd cover!

The original Tiesto Mix surprised me when i first heard it, as obviously people wait with bated breath when a classic is reworked. But i just find it incredibly cheeky that Tiesto has seemingly taken the credit for the original melody and commissioned remixes by Fred Baker/Phynn/Danjo&Styles, to anyone unfamiliar with the original William Orbit mix, they would think Tiesto made it himself.

Is it me or does it seem ludacris to remix a remix? 3 times?

william orbit didn't do the original though

I wish they'd leave this alone.

The Ferry Corsten remix was about the only one that could just about justify a trance remix!

The classical 'remix' (words to the Agnus Dei)was nice though!

dont be a sissy. i think he meant that William Orbit was the one which made an electronic intepretation of Samuel Barbers Adagio for strings

well i have no idea whatsoever what he meant and that's why i'm asking. seems more like pointless bashing to me (because ti�sto isn't cool) tbh.

CAn someone tell my why THE FU*K the vinyl is labeled as TIESTO - ADAGIO FOR STRINGS??wtf did tiesto had to do with Adagio For Strings instead of just remixing?its not his track..he didn't composed or produced it? Damn Tiesto...taking all the credit as usual for the money

he did produce it. he didn't compose it. what should it be called then in your opinion?

samuel barber - adagio for strings (tiesto remix)

i'll just post my reply from this thread here.

you don't see
joan jett - i love rock 'n roll (britney spears remix)
now do you?
and he did not remix william orbit's version either and he didn't remix samuel barber's original, he did produce the track, but what he didn't do is compose it.
even if he had wanted to release it as
william orbit - barber's adagio for strings (ti�sto remix)
or
samuel barber - adagio for strings (ti�sto remix)
he couldn't do it without the permission of the artists.

and OMG above & beyond ripped off tomaso giovanni albinoni when they named their track
rollerball - albinoni
or the london symphony orchestra ripped off vivaldi for example for releasing some tracks he composed on a cd.


plese, get your facts together before you start that pointless bashing.

im more intelligent and mature than to "bash" artists and DJs without due reason or cause. Im merely expressing my dissapointment that there are remixes of a remix without even a hint of the original author.


Posted by RebeL9 on Mar-20-2005 17:00:

If i'm not wrong Tiesto actually used William Orbits song as the basic for his adagio for strings. Read it somewhere.
