Tiesto @ Piknic..roflmao.

Just go see Nick Pilon, at least he can mix and won't cost you an arm and a leg. I'm sure he would pose if you asked him nicely.

I want him to play a set "a la Energy 2000"


Posted by elFreak on Feb-27-2008 17:32:

Build a time machine then, because that style has been dead for years.

People just like to bash him because he has been oh so sucessfull.
Fact is, he's a trance pioneer, at least for north america

You are ignorant and don't even know your own favourite genres history.

1.Okenfold pioneered trance in North America (he couldnt mix either.)

2.I'm not bashing him as much as telling you the style of trance you want has been dead a long time. No use crying , you are going to have to get used to it.

3. Read this. This guy has travelled all across the world to see him over 70 times, has a fan site and has widely been recognized as the biggest Tiesto fan on earth. Why does he say these things? Because he wants to hate his idol?

I'm becoming less motivated to care about what Tiesto is up to as well. Why?

Quite simply the DJ i was supporting c.2001-2 playing 6hr solo sets in clubs with a broad range of prog- tech- uplifting- trance has become obsessed with marketing and big room stadium gigs.

Thats partly the demand that lets him get away with it. But he could also wake up tomorrow and decide to go back to doing intimate venues again.

As PatmcGroin wrote on first page. 5 times a year he really kicks ass. The rest of the time is on auto-pilot playing tracklists that half resemble a hit parade, the other half a slap dash run through of recent "trancers" and a few "alternative tracks".

Club Life at face value is the same as the rest, but at least it has a second hour of interesting club music... the fact they choose to only podcast hour 1 (the uplifting vocal trance pap) proves the direction the Tiesto bandwagon is going in... and its one i'd rather jump off than head into some third-world-tour.

Trance Energy may have been an excellent showcase... but how can he translate that style to an 8 hour concert event? The truth is the big shows never work, they're just money spinners and hype mongers. If he would choose to balance his touring between festivals (playing trance energy/museumplein type sets) and some intimate venues (playing his wider style) then i would love it.

The issue is the rather large middle ground. Where for every 1 or 2 festival sets a year, and the 2-3 private afterparties, there are 125 tour events where Traffic and Adagio are belted out for the 200th time. Or the party has to fall under some kind of "brand".. EOL or ISOS, is there even a difference. Gone are the days where he's just turning up and playing music. Its all "set patterns" and "pyrotechnically correct" setlists... blabla.

Its not like he is not aware of it either. Did he dare play Adagio in holland last week?? No. So why do it everywhere else in the world then?? Grr its frustrating. And so many "older" fans who were there in the really good period 2001-2 have left him because of it.

And where the fuck did I mention YOU were bashing? 2/3 people here bash him. Okenfold pioneered shit for ppl in the mid 20s right now, tiesto did. Proof is I never heard one set of oakenfold and I dont give a crap. And im not crying I enjoy the current trance right now 2.

P.S. Are you a techno nerd?

Quick ZraW, while ANF isn't looking, make a few baseless comparissons between Armin and Magda.

What is they both have vaginas Alex.

I'll take I missed stirring Drama For 600 Alex.


Posted by Alex on Feb-27-2008 18:19:

Well Armin is better because he draws more people, makes sense if you live in RDP.

I can't believe Michael Boogerd finally came to his senses.. probably off the payroll or something


Posted by Marcus007 on Feb-27-2008 18:21:

im so tired of people killing threads just cuz they dont like the dj

it's so 2002-2003

seriously guys

LEARN TO RESPECT OTHER PEOPLES OPINIONS


Posted by elFreak on Feb-27-2008 18:23:

listen to this man, after all he died in a huge natural disaster in the Day After Tomorrow.


Posted by Sean Walsh on Feb-27-2008 18:25:

It's all fairly depressing IMO. I used to be a big fan of the Tiesto, Armin, etc back in early 2000s, but for pretty much all of the reason in Boogerd's post, I now couldn't care less. There's just no freshness or innovation in their sets these days, just the same stale sound, 30 second mixes, and absolutely no boundary pushing.

IMO of course! There's still some good trance out there, it just doesn't seem to be played by the big jocks anymore (SvD notwithstanding, but his style is nothing remotely similar to Tiesto/Armin)

THAT right there is by far the stupidest thing I have ever read on this board.

1) we don't bash people cuz they're successful, we bash them cuz they don't cater to our own personal tastes no seriously, he's successful in terms of his Dutch bank account growing and his shoeline launch for sure but in any other sense of the term, he fails. he is a sheer sell-out.

2) trance pioneer my white german arse. if you're gonna talk about pioneers, mention PVD at least. tiesto didn't start a trend/genre of music, PVD did. and tiesto exploded in Europe waaaaaaaaaaay before he was even thought of here in North America. and i don't think he's pioneering shit right now in North America. and if you really were up on your shit, you'd know that he plays HOUSE now! Not good house, but electro, synthy, farty, commerical, crowd-pulling house, and he pitches up the track to 132bpm from the tune's original 124bpm. how that could possibly sound good, i don't know. it doesn't!!! he went to shit a looooong time ago. i've never even seen him live, and i'd attend an event of his if i was paid to go (or got something out of it aside from a headache), not the other way around.

keep the tiestor in holland please. no need for him here. all we'll get is 5000 CEGEP girls wearing tiesto clothing/shoes and screaming their heads off, orgasming in their pants cuz they caught a glimpse of him...but in reality, it was the E that did it

puuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuure GARBAGE.

Here's a sensible answer: Tiesto is not a very good DJ. No, don't dispute this. His skills are pedestrian, his ideas are uninteresting, and his track selection is not very well-rounded. He is a simple, one-dimensional, ABC DJ who just plays songs back-to-back. On the DJ pantheon, he is about one notch above the mobile DJ at the last wedding you attended.

If you think he is a good DJ, then you know very little about DJing, and even less about music.

The reason why people hate Tiesto is because, as a bad DJ, he is very good at marketing the illusion that he is a good DJ to ignorant people who don't know any better, like you.

And that makes the rest of us sad. Because you're actually stupid enough to fall for his bullshit.

We want you to stop being stupid, and start liking good music.

The end.


did you miss me guays?!
You can't have TA without Drama. Its all fucking event threads now lol.
