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 Devant
4.Blake Jarrell
5.Richard Durrand
Thanks again to everybody who came to my shows and who bought the new single 'dance4life'!
Love,
Tiësto
I think he's top 5 is bad ass

Thats Such Horseshit, If Tiesto felt that way then he would take a cut in pay and bring some Blackhole artists or any other artists on tour with him.
Instead he gets like 60K+ to DJ

I really don't know what to think of this. If he really does mean it then I do agree Tiesto is a class act. That's a pretty humble thing to do on his part.

Not humble really, just realisation that his position means very little to him anymore. He's surpassed the need to be 'popular' because i won XXX award.

When he fails to get to number 1 again, instead of having to face the reality that he is shit, he can instead say - well look, i asked people NOT to vote for me.
Clever tactics if you ask me. The fucking turd burglar.
