Time to vote for new talent

quote:

Hi Everybody, I just finished my gig in Las Vegas half an hour ago. I had an epic weekend with four great shows. I spent a couple of days in Tahoe, went to Austin Texas, a festival in Chicago and the Global festival at the Palms hotel in Vegas. Every night I went out with the promoter of the city I was in and most of them where bringing up the DJ Magazine top 100 voting. It's a big thing for most of the promoters and most of them will book DJ's that are high on this list. That made me think, because if that's the case the voting is important. Especially to breed new talent. There are so many new great young DJ's out there that I feel it's time to give them a chance. I appreciate all the love and support I get from all over the world but I won this award three times so if I would win it a fourth time, it wouldn't make a difference for my career. For the new talented DJ's around the world it could make a difference, so I would like to ask all the people who support me to vote for new talent. Don't vote for me, vote for the new breed! I just voted myself and my personal top 5 is: 1.Eddie halliwell 2.Sander van doorn 3.Serge deviant 4.Blake jarrell 5.Richard Durant Thanks again to everybody who came to my shows and who bought the new single 'dance4life'! Love, Ti�sto

I think it's cool that Tiesto agrees that new talent should get a chance to make it to the top 10. Maybe it's a little farfetched, but people should stop voting for Tiesto and vote for the new people :-)

Nice to see he chose some interesting people as his top 5

Go post this in MD and tell everyone to shove it. Eh, nevermind... wouldnt make a different.

But yeah, that is definitely cool of him to do.

Man, nothing ever gets by you

i hope he actually voted for "serge devant" and not "deviant" cuz there is no deviant lol

How about Tiesto give his fellow Dutchmen Ferry Corsten, and of course Armin van Buuren, because I believe there is a strong chance that Armin could be #1 this year.

Because that would ago against why he voted for who he did this year.

werd this is a good move by tiesto
i mean he sounds like he doesent care to be number 1 anymore but i think in his heart he does
cause last year around this time his sets were blahhhh then when pvd won his sets started to get better like the old tiesto with mix of trance and techno and some nice prog
so it should be interesting to see wat he says if hes number 1 this year

wow i tip my hat to this man.... eddie halliwell #1 he make good music long time!

Pretty cool for Tijs to do that

I voted for Halliwell last year, but I just haven't seen/heard enough of him to vote for him again this year. He needs to come to NYC more often. I think the last time was following B&J @ Avalon in July 2005.

This is a crock. He knows he won't win this year so he's setting himself up to look like a saint and not a chump for losing. so now, when he loses this year, he has an excuse as to why.

I was waiting for someone to make a comment like that

But the people he put up in his top 5 was a pretty good move. And to even solidify that, he put it on the homepage of his website.

sure it is...

tiesto has for months been saying this exact thing privately, before this year's voting even began.

i just tip my hat to the guy for doing something like this (the djs he supported aren't even his labelmates, just guys he likes a lot -- he's praised eddie halliwell and svd in the past, and he def. likes serge since he requests him as his opener/closer all the time).

respect.

Never voted for Tiesto so he wont be loosing or gaining mine. Halliwell is pretty good but I wouldnt vote him as number one. I agree there hasnt been many 2006 sets from him.

Las time i heard that man speak, he was saying how Holden owned his world.

wow thats really fucking cool of him!

you didn't know?
