I personally dont think he has shit trance.... i bought his first cd.. and loved it.. its just different than what people are used to. And because of that people might think that hes a "biter' meaning hes trying to bite off someone else. As for him as a person.. i really cant say much. I have never met him or read anything about him. But i am curious as to what he is like. Paul Van Dyk shot him down.. wow. thats not like him to do that. I think that there isnt just a thing as shit trance. Everyone has different tastes... some more than others. I thik he deserves a great chance in the industry soo .. let him be

i think ATB's alright. commercial? yes but his tunes are still decent compared to someone like alice deejay or darude.

absolutely agree
He is a bit commercial, but I used to like his early tracks, like
don't stop!

wanted tunes:
Paul Lancaster - Bad girl (Fretwell dub)
Scarcubem - Linien
Roger van Lunteren - Rainy autumn sunrise

...experienced the Sasha Magic...
Album of the moment: Aural imbalance - Different perspective

I'm not sure if ATB is putting out trance anymore, but his latest double CD is cool to lounge with a girl. It's really relaxing... dreamy vocals...

all i got to say. atb is a good dj. seriously when you see him live then you gonna be like wtf this dude can hype a crowd up! when he was at glow in washington, dc he tore it up! thats all i got say!

ATB makes commercial trance to make money. Hell, he has made over a million on 9 PM Till I Come alone. That song is on 6+ dance compilations. As a DJ, he is excellent.

I think his first tune was pretty good, but the second one was totally same.. Killer was horrible and after that i didn't bother listening to him.. The atb remix of airwave wasn't that bad even though the dutch force one was way better

Peace

At the last Trance Energy he was one of the best dj's that night. I didn't expect it but he has got great skills. But he didn't really mixed in the same style as the songs he produce.

I really like ATB as both a producer and DJ. Sure...some of his productions are a bit cheesy, but they're still fun to listen to. His sound is pretty unique and many seem to dig the guitar leads he used in his songs (I haven't heard some of his latest productions but I hear from people that he doesn't use the guitar thingy anymore).

I also think that PvD should not have shot ATB down like that. I've always looked at PvD as a non-arrogant person which puts him aside from other top DJs that are sometimes arrogant. For PvD that was an arrogant thing to do...he shoulda said something like 'thats just not my style'.
