your not really making a point there. the track listing has 25 easily ID'eable tracks. Do the math now.

25*6=150

25 = #of tracks
6 = avg. lenght of each track

150 is the total minutes.

thats 2.5 hours of played out choons. Thats a lot.

2.5hrs/7hrs= 35.7% of tiesto set

this math is hard and all please tell me about the other 65 percent of his set/or 4.5hrs?

Who cares?

EOD!!!!
(that's end of discussion for you noobs!)

Jan Gustafsson - Future History

What I don't understand is why are people complaining about Tiesto playing old tracks..

Everybody seems to love Tiesto of 99, but hate Tiesto of 2004. Yet when Tiesto plays tracks of 99, those same people who love Tiesto 99 are complaing... It just doesn't make any sense

because people want new stuff in the same style. of course, its difficult to have the same style and still stay on top without being regarded to as cheese. (PVD may be the best example of sticking to his roots and succeeding, sasha as well)

tiestos always been known as haaaaaaaaaaaaaard trance. magik 1-7....WHOAH! amazing.
Summerbreeze as well: WHOA!
Nyana: half-whoa

ISOS series, well, very girly but CLASSICS.

now ur a fine example of one beleiving in togetherness, if you didnt enjoy urself you want others to admit the same... i dont think i read many negative reviews bout the nite so if ur upset cuz tiesto didnt play tracks that would have most people going fuk i must have that track but i doubt i will for the next few weeks cuz its not released then suit urself ... and if that doesnt do it then y dont u write an email to tiestos management or something highlighting the same ... u know what they gonna tell u?? something along the lines of it doenst really matter cuz hes #1 and has been that way for the last 3 years.. its these popular tracks that are filling his pockets and ours as well so go see pvd(who plays a different style of music neway and check the new york forums after his gig there and ul see almost every track id'd simply cuz he has a larger following in new york than in toronto).

i dont wanna sound like a dick but sometimes its better to sway in the popular direction(just like you think tiesto is doin) and you might wanna go over the replies to your posts to reemphasise my point.

Posted by kamil on Dec-13-2004 08:48:

no i enjoyed it, cept for traffic and that breaks track and some other track which...i donno, dont remember but it was lame. So out of the 4 hours of tiesto i heard, 3 tracks imo sucked. the rest: good. his own stuff: bad.

tiestos never been known as a good producer, like i said, back in the day he depended on ferry (gouryella) for choons. now its BT (a very smart move btw).

but yeah, i beleive in togetherness :P

the reason why i dont want him to play all his "latest" releases (which arent so "latest" theyre getting old) is because weve already heard it all. why spend 2X as much on a CD AGAIN for a night out to hear the same stuff played AGAIN? youv heard it on net radio, on antenna radio, your CD player, u bought the CD, you saw it on TV, you downloaded the tracks too, and now your spending MORE money so you can hear it AGAIN?

Part of DJing is also being original.

Ex; i saw sasha and zabiela play at Guv on oct. 9..........couldnt ID a single track, and, more importantly, a consistent style was achieved throughout, even while switching from DJ to DJ. incredible. and all new music as well. Very nicely done. That is what i call, getting my moneys worth, and i got a ton for 20 bucks to see both and even chat it up with zabiela.

I dont know about you but hearing songs I know(even though I didnt know many of the ones last night) do sound a HELL OF A LOT BETTER at the club on their system in that atmosphere!!!! totally blows away my computer speakers and my car set up. Way different experience !

part of being a dj is being original but thats only PART of it. there are many parts of it (as im sure you know) and one of them is playing songs that people know and can identify with!!!!!!! no they havent been played out ! maybe a couple (like traffic but even then its a good song!!)

Im just totally amazed how you can think that a dj has to play all these unknowns to be good People like to identify with songs they know .

a good dj does a mix of both imo which he did!

anyways. enough with the bickering

and what the heck is with "choons"??????? Its Tunes, no?

I'd never complain if he played 1999 style Damn even 2001 and style would easily do it for me : )))

I don't want to be ignorant, so I won't say anything bad about Tiesto. He did SO MUCH for the scene arround the world that he deserves the position he is in right now. But I predict that if he keeps his style all his old school fans will turn from him. And we are the back bone of his popularity, it will quite soon follow us

Posted by kamil on Dec-13-2004 09:08:

euphorica: no i dont think were bickering at all, i think this "debate" is going rather well, no cussing, no flaming, nothing. im enjoying it

a DJ doesnt have to play unknown choons in order to be good, but heres the reality: they get slapped with the "mainstream DJ" label when they do. and hearing tracks from 1 year, to almost 5 years (airtight, eventho i love it) isnt exactly, uh, revolutionary. It *should* be pioneering.

I know i prolly sound like some hardcore music lover thats searching for totally enlightment, but thats because i see DJ'ing and music as hardcore as an art style as i do with my photography and graphic design. ive been listening to trance for 6 or 7 years nowz so its becoming hard to impress me.....maybe thats the reason why luke chable and the sorts are impressing me like hell.

as for ure first comment, i usually find it listening to my minidisc or stereo through headphones to trance, that way i hear ALL the music (the sound system doesnt output all the frequencies and the bass drowns out some stuff) but in terms of "energy" definately a club.

if i were to get a CD signed by Tijs, it'd be Magik One. Not his commercial stuff.

He signed my Magik 6 and Nyana last time at the Docks. He kinda gave me a weird look when I gave him Magik 6 to sign. Maybe he knows I'm a "true" fan.

There are only two CD sets that i always come back to when theres no new trance to listen to.

1) Paul Oakenfold - Perfecto Presents Another World
2) DJ Tiesto - Magik 6 Live in Amsterdam

that magik, and i think of all the CDs Tiesto has ever released, imo, is by far the greatest thing hes ever put together. So many massive choons on that. OMTIJS!!!!

It's true that I'm a Tiesto fan mostly because of his 98-2001 stuff. And I've struggled with that for the last year. Do I really like Tiesto these days with his new image and new "sound".? The answer is a so-so yes. Some of his stuff is good, some of it not. I kinda just rolled my eyes when everybody sang along to Love Comes Again. I hate that track, but each to their own.

So, while I still love Tiesto, I acknowledge that it's mostly for what he used to do, rather than what he does now. His live performances are great, but if you look at his tracklistings lately, it's pretty repetitive, and I don't really keep track of new stuff either. But it's parties like last night (or two nights ago now actually) that remind me exactly why I loved Tiesto and why I still do love him. I had a great time...end of story. Next time he's at the Docks, I'll be there.

Well, actually I hear that Kandaio is supposedly trying to get Tiesto to come to the Phoenix in London in February because they're "friends". Fat chance. Why would Tiesto waste his time in LONDON ONTARIO?

What a night..... Got to the Docks at about 10pm with Tha_Broad, and Kurfew.... Trying to park was an adventure... We got into the front parking lot just in time, cause 2 more cars pulled in and they closed the lot.. We went to go in line and saw some people we knew so that cut our time down a bit... took about 20 mins till we got in...
Got handed a Rev as soon as i got in and slowly made our way to coat check.... the line wasn't too bad... still took a while to get our coats checked an all, but it was all good...
Met up with Az, Amb, an his friend Chris near the outside smoking doors.. Hung out for a bit... Then went galavanting round... Was outside having a smoke about 30 mins before Tiesto went on, went with a group of TOTA's to get a grand tour of the place with who i'm guessing was one of the managers.. gave us the low down on the final construction plans coming this summer.. Also got a chance to go up in the Dj booth.. Stayed on that side of the stage for the better portion of the night...
Tiesto came on at about 12:45, and man the night began there..... i have to say that he did not disapoint me at all... I had a wikkid time the last time he was at the Docks and I had a wikkid time this time round too... he ended up playin for about 7.5 hours.. which was so damn good.... at the end of the night he signed an tossed the headphones he was wearing, as well as a record....
What a night....
Shout out to all the Ta's i saw there.... i'd write yall out but ya's know who you are..
