Tiesto tunes re-released

According to HMV, classic tiesto tunes such as Sparkles, Flight 643, Suburban Train, Theme from Norefjell, etc... are being re-released here in the UK on 31st May.

Can anyone confirm this? iv only seen it on the HMV (UK) website under the 'Coming soon' section in the Trance/Hard House singles page of the site.

if it is true then im looking forward to picking up some gems i missed the first time they were released!

i want sparkles (transa mix), theme from norefjell and skin - faithfulness (ti�sto remix) on cd ffs!
not vinyl, but cd! gimme! release! now!

This is good news seeing how i just sold my vinyl copies of Sparkles (Blackhole), Theme from Norefjell, Tube etc so its good in a way but why bring out tracks again from 1999/2000. Why not look to the future instead of always bringing back the classics to make some money. i think i just answered it...$$$$$. Im sure they will sell well so they may aswell bring out Universal Nation and 1998 just to be on the safe side

Why on earth would he re-release Theme From Norefjell??? That tune sounds so amateurish and dated nowadays that it isn't even funny. Hell, even Tiesto himself only plays the Jan & Chantzis Mix nowadays, since it sounds nothing like the original whatsoever. Ah well, I guess there's enough cash to be made on it, so why should he care.

Well I hope that the magikal remake and the Jan & Chantzis Mix will both feature on the vinyl. Then I'll pick it up!

wasn't there a rumor of a 2004 rework of Theme From Norefjell?

This is good for people like me who recently got into spinning vinyl and never got hold of the classics...

Re-releasing is one thing but all these [insert year here] remakes piss me off.

like the the wrong labelling of tracks and releasing them that way (binary finary - 2004 which is actually the 2000 dumonde millennium mix )

Yeah, but that whole vinyl was a bit cheeky anyway, it didn't have any info about the tracks anywhere.

tiesto really needs to stop trying to ride this "i'm an artist" wave he's been on lately.

he said himself that he wanted to play more of his own material and he has started in that direction, but its not working. you can't just play your tunes every other weekend and expect people to come out to see your ass...i'm afraid we're seeing the end of tiesto. if he's #1 this year...its complete bullshit.

...and just what does this have to do with re-releasing tunes?

well re-releasing tunes kinda goes along with only playing his own productions. he is clearly trying to continue marketing himself as an artist more than a dj.

And what's wrong with that?

That moneymaking becomes more important then producing good stuff and being something special which can remain timeless.
Give the old bugger 2 years and Tiesto is a gonner

Had anyone else done this it would had been a great idea but when it's Tiesto it obviously has to be a cash grab.

Yep, and IMO Armin is slightly gettin' cheesier also (for example: Blue Fear 2004)! A big big shame!
And look at the tracklisting of his old compilations cd's and the recent A State of Trance 2004 (don't get me wrong, it's a good cd but he just be kinda exclusive and stuff)

nothing actually...but if he wants to become more of an "artist" than he shouldn't tour as much and work more in the studio. you can't expect to play 20 shows a month playing a collection of your music that is 3-4 years old.

w00t

i only started spinnin' a few months back and havent been able to get my hands on these classics yet

I want to get some of those tiesto tunes as well
I'd like them to be re-released.
But, God, don't let them spoil the tracks with 2004 remakes

IMO, many older DJ's Track Selection is getting worse and worse. Maybe our taste is just changing, but it seems like they cant keep up with the times. DJ's like PvD, Armind, and Tijs all just seem to be playing the same style they've been playing for a long time and not changing at all. There isn't a problem necessarily, but the majority of their listeners from a couple of years ago have now started to move in a more progressive direction generally.

Have you listened to Ferry Corsten mixes lately ? That dude is stuck in the 90's Still good though

I really wanna get hold of sparkles, and possibly in my memory & urban train, so it's not a bad idea imo to give ppl like me a chance to buy some of our favourites

If you live near Breda you can actually still buy those vinyls right now, I bought the ones you mentioned about 6 months ago, and there were at least 10 more copies around of each (except for sparkles). But hey, now I'm just teasing you

Dude, some rock bands still play tunes that are 20+ years old and the crowd still loves them.

the only remix worth playing is the jan and chantzis mix, all the other mixes of that tune fuckin suck

the trouble is, although i love most of his earlier work the production on tunes like sparkles is so dated, it would be impossible to play this tune nowadays without sounding cheesy. apart from classics sets, and private collections, where would you put this tune?
urban train is a true classic that wont date, same goes for flight 643.

what about tiesto's co-productions? stuff like allure - no more tears, kamaya painters - endless wave... again it would be very difficult to play these tunes in a set nowadays
