Tiesto - Letters from LA

Living in Los Angeles
I moved to Los Angeles temporarily to get some rest and work on new music in January. In the first 2 weeks it was really strange for me to be in one city for so long but now I am really soaked in this lifestyle. Every day during the week I go to the studio and occasionally I go out in the weekends. I sleep 8 hours a night, eat 4 times a day and go to the gym 3 times a week. My body doesn't know what's happening! No crazy late nights or spending hours and hours in planes. So I feel like a champ at the moment!
I am working in several studios in Hollywood and with several producers and singers/songwriters. Hollywood is full of them! So much talent in one town... One of them, Brian Transeau (BT) is one of the best producers in the world. I've been a fan of his music since he produced Mercury & Solace, so for me it's a great honour to work with him and also very inspirational. He is a crazy multitasker, working on tracks with me, meanwhile doing 2 movie soundtracks, circuitbend kids' toys to get the most crazy sounds out of them, directing visuals for his experimental album and taking care of his sweet daughter of 2! It's amazing to work with somebody who is just as crazy about house music as I am. We have real love for it and that shows off on the tracks we make. We have a lot of fun, and that is essential for creating music. To be happy about what you're doing and really mean it. Brian and I are both very extremely enthusiastic people, and so we are able to show that to our crowds, just because we love it so much!
We were talking the other day about some other famous dj's who have the privilege to travel around the world, but when behind the decks look like some family member just passed away 
. While spinning your music for a great crowd, how can you look so miserable? The only way you can stand behind the decks and look like that is when you're not happy with yourself or with the music you play.
I had just a few gigs where I was not that happy last year, and of course people saw that on me. But the reasons for that are always technical, and never emotional. If my monitor sucks (which happens quite a lot), or my equipment doesn't work properly then I get pissed off. But never because I don't like the crowd or what I am doing. I found out I still have the same passion for dj-ing as when I started. Of course it feels a little bit different the first time you play for 25.000 people or the 10th time. But that's more about the expectations people have, then about me not loving it. I still love dj-ing more then anything in the world!
Meanwhile I am also compiling my new 'In Search Of Sunrise 5' mixalbum which will be released late April. I get send sooo many great tracks from producers from all over the world, it's crazy. I am gonna mix it here in L.A. in the next 2 weeks, so I am very excited for that as well...
So, love to you all from me in Los Angeles, and if you bump into me on the Hollywood Boulevard, don't be a stranger :-)!
Ti�sto

haha. hes a silly man.
so tiesto is playing house music now.
then out of the blue he talks indirectly about PVD.
ISOS5? why so early? he seems to be bored and in need of money or something.
then he says to not be a stranger if you bump in to him. i think thats because he is bored and lonely in LA and wants some attention on hollywood blvd.
then he is replying to the comments that ppl make saying 'tiesto used to dj better' and he says that he loves djing more than ever or as much as before.
hes a great marketing tool, seriously. next thing you know you see him in commercial during superbowl

Wow Tiesto in LA damn I'm a have to roam Hollywood Blvd everyday I wanna meet him! He'll always be a favorite I dunno why the hate 
Letters from L.A. huh? Sounds more like letters from the bottom. A place he never thought he'd be in again. That's what happens when you dis your fans Tiesto!!! Just ask your buddy Oakie! It's a fast trip down the ladder..all the way to the bottom. You forgot it was the fans that put you at the top. And now the fans (fans the ones you make no mention of in your letter from L.A.) have taken you down.
Those famous dj's you make mention of looking like a family member passed away when behind the decks..be more specific if you got the balls.
Those take the time for their fans. They sign autographs and not afraid of a photo camera.
I could care less if your happy and all smiles behind the decks and dis me after your set.
Especially after I sat in line for nearly two hours and froze my nuts off. And bought a ticket for $50 bucks (that said autograph and photo with DJ is not included) just to see you. I used to be big fan of yours. But after making a consistant habit of dissing me. I accepted the reality that you are a very selfish person. Yes it's nice to be important but it's more important to be nice ask your fellow countrymen Armin and Ferry. They are 1st class citizens of Holland.
Get with the times Tiesto and start paying attention to the forums. And you will see that I am just 1 out of countless fans that feel this way about you.
One last thing - If you're so crazy about house music why are you playing trance?
Clovis86, DJWoody and Sweetcandygirl you guys ROCK!!!!!!
It's only a matter of time until there's Tiesto impesonators roaming around Hollywood Blvd. I dont know if any of you have seen the Hollywood Blvd. impersonators, but they're funny. They walk around taking pictures with tourists and charging money.
Man i'm stoned
