Tiesto Top 5 Moments
Hey guys
Just wondering what your Tiesto Top 5 Moments are? I co-host a radio show on Monday nights. To celebrate Tiesto being crowned number 1 again we would like to do a Tiesto Top 5 Moments. Pick a Tiesto moment and a track that relates to it. ie Tiesto in Concert - Barbers Adagio, Innercity 2002 - Umek Gatex, Being chosen #1 dj 2002 - flight 643
Any more ideas?
Thanks
Rory
The uber legendary Innercity 1999 : Push - Universal Nation
Trance Energy 2000: Rank 1 - Airwave
Tiesto In Concert : Flight 643 (every1 who was there will understand)
My personal highlight this year was his Street Spirit remix @ the Love From Above, though

Probably the two most amazing moments in any recorded liveset I've ever heard.

During Tiesto's first visit to Los Angeles, he was playing at the Mayan Theatre to record Magik 7. I don't think a lot of people were familiar with Tiesto at the time, but the place was jam packed with people and the electricity in the air was so thick you could cut it with a knife. When he played Flight 643 and his mix of Delerium's "Silence", the place errupted like I've never seen a Los Angeles crowd react before. That was probably one of the top musical moments I've ever experienced, it just so happened it was Tiesto who gave it to me.

not specifically what you asked for but i'm going to list my all time top 5 Tiesto moments, not just a tune related to it:
01. DJ Tiesto - Live At Gatecrasher (01-01-03): Trainwreck from GTR - Mistral into DJ Tiesto - Urban Train [oh the irony
]
02. DJ Tiesto - Live At NEC 2002: Andain had just finished her live PA, and these huge fireworks exploded outwards from the side of the decks and as they exploded, Tiesto threw down the first beat of Mark Norman - Overkill. Was ace! ![]()
03. Creamfields 2003: Flight 643, He came onto the front of the stage like he always does, and then the needle jumped and the look on his face as the record skipped was absolutley priceless. He absolutley shit his pants and went scuttling back to the decks 
04. The piece of paper signed by Ferry Corsten that read: "Ferry Corsten is not another DJ Tiesto."
(ok so thats more to do with ferry than tiesto but still.)
05. DJ Tiesto - Dutch Dimension 2002: Push - Strange World ![]()

| Magik 6 (Live in Amsterdam): Delerium - Silence (Tiesto Remix)Probably the two most amazing moments in any recorded liveset I've ever heard. |
1. Energy 2000: the whole set. highlights were Kiss(airscape mix) mixed into Balearic Bill-Destination Sunshine (Tiesto power mix)and when Tiesto shuts the MC up at the end during the climax of Rank 1-Airwave.
2. Innercity 1999: Also the whole set. I think this is the most beautifully constructed set ever, at least for me it is. The buildup up from Universal Nation going through tracks like Endless Wave, Mirror, climaxing at Yves Deruyter-Feel Free and the huge ending with Gouryella-Gouryella into Clockwork Orange. Simply mindblowing.
3. Dutch Dimension 2-2-2002: after Jan Johnston, Plastikman-Spastik into Alibi-Eternity. Wow!
4. Impulz 2002: that great beginning with Sirius is classic. also the mix from Umek Lanicor into In My Memory (airwave or lvee remix) was something really special.
5. Tiesto in Concert 2003: Adagio intro. The live World Cup theme mixed into Carnaval was just so much fun too. The Speedy J track mixed into Lethal Industry was so refreshing. That amazing last hour that had Silence among others finishing with a brilliant blast at 7am with No Regular.
6. Magik 6 ending with Cloudwalking.
7. Hearing the Magik Journey intro and then the outro on a bunch of live sets i attended.
i'll remember more later.....

for me, my own favorite tiesto moment was seeing him live for the first time
OASIS 1999 in Montreal, at the Molson Center. Oakenfold was the headliner ... and tiesto was the "special guest dj". I had no clue that Tiesto was going to be there, it was my first "rave" experience and we came to see Oakenfold... and when tiesto came on...
. When he dropped Silence the place errupted... incredible
I think that was his Canadian maybe even North American debut. Very cool to be part of that.

1 Opening of In concert, Adagio for strings
2 Finishing of In concert, Tiesto plays Urban train and puts volume up a little bit, I went totally mad
3 Innercity 99, although I wasnt there the cd is masterpiece, I think it is even better than Magik 6. It takes you on a 70 minutes tour that I didnt hear on any other cd.
4 Energy 2000, Airwave and that Digital blonde tune. Really still makes me go crazy when I hear that set
The track selection is wonderfull
5 Plastic boy - Silver bath at TiC that tune is so fucking energetic
and then mixing into mindcircus

| Originally posted by YaleTrance yeah, the MC was ruining the breakdown, and Tiesto just raises the volume over the MC and makes him scream. it's classic! |
he did add something to the build of kiss(airscape remix) though.
my favourite tiesto moments:
the first was when tiesto was in groningen (netherlands) in the palace, and during his set, during flight 643, he climbed up on the table / dj booth, and standing there in the "plain-pose".
(it has been somewhere on photo)
the second moment is more hilarious. it was after his set. he was having a drink and i was sitting next to him, just relaxing and enjoying the music with a friend of mind. not even interested in having a signature of the man. but some other guy was.
he walked up to tiesto and took his wallet, offered tiesto to pay 25 euro for tiesto's signature. and tiesto was like: "hey are you crazy??" he just gave the kid a signature and didnt took the money... but i laughed my ass off because of that kid wanting to pay for a signature....

I still have a small spot in my heart for my once favorite DJ. He's given me some great memories, and actually was probably the person that cemented my relationship with EDM. Even though he's not the greatest technical DJ, I think he still deserves mucho respect for all that he's accomplished. Some great memories of mine include my going mental to the following tunes live:
delerium- silence
jan johston- flesh
flight 643
barber's adagio remix
^^^
That's what it's all about!

The moment that marked the true start of me getting into EDM:
This summer, July 17th, first night ever in Ibiza and first night in a big club...
Walking into club Amnesia, right at the moment of Tiesto spinning the breakdown to DJ Ton TB's "Electronic Malfunction"
Hearing that and looking around I was just like holy crap now THIS is what I have been waiting for.
