TIESTO has turned his back on the music that has made him famous....

Hahah

I just read his interview on DJ Mag and he talks about how he's over Trance and he's all house now.

"The biggest thing to happen for me this year is my change in style. I play more eclectic, much more house-driven, and like, indie pop music. The whole trance part is deleted from my set now. It is completely gone. It was a revolutionary thing for me."

"I just didn't like the old trancey sounds anymore," he continues. "It just all started to sound the same to me. Already in Ibiza last year, I had started to play like that, and I saw that the people were up for everything, and it felt great. I'm still learning, experimenting with where to drop which tracks. But everyone's very supportive."

No wonder he's going to check on the Swedes on Sunday lol

interpretation: I noticed I was falling off. so I decided to go with the mainstream.

This is a good move, now the new talent can shine.

Another reason why...

House > Trance

do you blame him?


Posted by system-7 on Oct-28-2010 05:07:

I will quote my friend who just got the bad news from Tiesto's comment(fan for years, back when he was known as dj unlimited),

"Thats why man, its all the mainstream bro, its the artists makings the songs for rap stars and whoring themselves for MTV."

Sadly, he is correct. Can we blame them, nah.. but it won't make his music any better. Its like a hot ass girl who finally peaks out in her 30's. My assumption, he can't ever be as good as when he played trance.(I have too much time on my hands)


Posted by groovedaddy21 on Oct-28-2010 05:15:

I'm glad he switched. House fans can have him.

Funny, I'm over Tiesto and mostly into Trance & Progressive now...to each their own!


Posted by Quazar on Oct-28-2010 05:17:

The ONE thing I like about Tiesto's new sound is that he uses indie rock artists, but that's not enough.

One of these days a DJ is going to come along that plays old-school, classic trance and all the newbie Deadmau5 and Guetta fans are going to eat it up because they've never heard it before. I just hope it happens while I'm still young so I don't have to be the old creeper in the club. :P


Posted by system-7 on Oct-28-2010 05:24:

I heard my first trance track back in 1994, yeah this isn't going anywhere or losing speed. regardless of who jumps ship. I guess i'm a club creeper. :P

For me it was "Children" by Robert Miles in 1996. I was in 7th grade I think.

Then again, when I was a little kid I loved Ace of Base, so I think I was just destined to love dance music. :P

All these years I've worked in the music business, the one thing I've noticed about artists who claim they're done with a certain style, always seem to go back to their roots. At one point or another. Unfortunately, the stuff he and others are remixing today, is what is happening for the time being. But just like every style of music, eventually it wears out.


Posted by Contrasts on Oct-28-2010 05:44:

I LOL'd at Tiesto when I heard him play the bloody beatroots (spell check???, they aren't worth looking up). I gave up the little I had for him..... Not knocking his skills and what he's accomplished or anything like that, just loling at going house. I'm sure he and Oakencock will take the same career path. Vegas residency playing blah blah blah to all the fucking sheep and "high rollers" who want to party in Vegas. I truly think he wants to go "house" to appeal to the masses. I mean the only way he will be number 1 again is if he does something new and appeals to a different more massive crowd? I don't know just my two cents. Plus the average Vegas "all star" party person doesn't like trance.

House is so blah (some exceptions). I guess it's because how much people mix in electro (worst fucking THING to ever be invented). I respect good house dj's and can listen to some.... but once the blender noises start going off I want to run into a brick wall.

Yeah schulz does shitty music videos, but his sets and productions go on for days.


And shit if Tiesto says trance sucks, it must be true! Coming from the guy who's most popular song is a remake of a classical music song Again nothing wrong there, it worked for him... Just saying

Agree. That's happening with me right now. As many of you know, I used to be really deep into the EDM scene, but then all of the sudden I stopped an got into the latin scene. Right now I'm at a point where I'm tired of the latin scene and want to get back into the EDM scene. I can honestly say that I truly miss it. Specially after seeing Carl Cox at Monster Massive. Wow, that made me wanna get into it even more.

Ahhh Vegas! I have a lot of DJ friends whose goal is to make it to Vegas. Honestly, I really don't like that crowd. I think Vegas if full of posers and bottle service type of crowd. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure the local scene rocks, but in the big clubs they are full of tourist who only go to the clubs to pretend to be someone they're not. That's not my thing. My goal is to make it to Ibiza and to become the Erick Morillo of Mexico. Yeap, I wanna be Mexico's biggest DJ.

Make it in Vegas! uggggh, well I guess it depends on the situation and how much freedom you have on your set lists. Ibiza... Count me in. Small villa/my decks and I'm set! I'm sure you'll be somewhere one day. Goodluck!


Posted by element-y on Oct-28-2010 06:49:

Oh ok tiesto... so why is it you drop a big hit or two of yours still in sets (least i think he still does)? I mean if you are over it and fans are over it, forget suburbain train, flight, etc. that you play and which the crowd is louder than any other track during those. Go with playing all swedish house mafia now - cause people like SHM. If you will cut the past, dont play anything from it then. You lie to the older fans. I learned this mistake but others have not. Gone since 05 is tiesto of trance

yea cause that tiesto trance sound was not mainstream at all. God forbid the guy gets tired of the same old trance and wants to experiment with some new sounds. Isnt that what djs are supposed to do? Thats the problem with trance, it hasnt evolved much in years!


Posted by DjWoody on Oct-28-2010 20:59:

I FUCKEN KNEW IT!!!!

LA.... WE'RE RESPONSIBLE FOR TIESTO CHANGING HIS SOUND!!!

Hahahahaha here's him saying it in an interview on Radio 1. He says he decided to change his sound after he spent some time an LA and listened to MASH UPS!!!

Thats just too funny

He should have lived in SF. Better music up there.

I personally became a fan after hearing Kaleidoscope. Trance is pretty boring.

Worst CD ever made.. filled with POP sounding tracks.. Yuck!

Tiesto, I'm so over him. I was looking forward to going to one of his vegas shows, but now, I'm like ughhhh...

Yuck.

i have to admit tho, i really like the feel it in my bones and escape meeeeeeeeeeee tracks on the kalidescope album tho.

escape meeeEEEEEeeeeeeEEee

lolz


Posted by system-7 on Oct-28-2010 21:52:

I think the only reason he is doing this is because he is coming to the states. And as someone mentioned, residency in Vegas calls for the crowd of poseurs and bottle service partiers(nothing wrong with that)that eat up this type of stuff. I'm not even bothered about him changing up. I just don't like the way he put it, like the genre just ends with him. (yeah freakin right)

It like when Jordan decided to play baseball.
