I will agree on the fact he fades tunes out quickly now and again which obviously disturbs the mix and makes it sudden and very un-affective. I also must add I have not heard a dramatic trainwreck form DJ Tiesto, Sorry mate but you must have been listening to another DJ, Judge Jules maybee ?

Judge Jules seldom trainwrecks. Tiesto does sometimes but not dramatic ones. PvD hardly ever puts a beat wrong.

he was shit at the nec, and so was tiesto!

hmmm....

maybe they thought if they played decent tunes they cud get away with crap mixing coz all the people that cared about the mixxing wud be wrecked! but then again pvd played shit tunes as well...

i wonder why most djs fuck up a bit at big events (eg: ferry and armin did a few cock ups at telewest too)

but i have to admit hearing the tiesto nec set again the mixing is highly amusing!

Yeah, PVD played a pretty ginger tracklist! DJ Tiesto played the tunes but his mixing was far from sorted. My theory is he buckled under the pressure, All those people just whent to his head.

I find it hard two beleive you can fuck up with 18 foot speakers in-front of you, or was that Galaxy presenter full of shit ?

Maybe they get nervous playing in front of all those people.. so much pressure to mix well.

if he is trying to say PVD is better than Tiesto, then lets just take a look PVD At Gatecrasher. The mixing was as shit as shit can be. Total disappoinment. Track selection was good, but he just didnt bring it together.

Tiesto totally owned that nite. A few flaws in his mixing but compared to pvds set it was smooth!

so lets have less of the "DJ Trainwrecking Tiesto" and stop talking shite

mikey you wernt there, pvd's track selection was fucking DIRE!!! but he mixed way better than tiesto that night, tiesto's mixing made even mine look good! (note: i dont own decks or DJ) Tiesto picked loads of amazing tracks but his mixing was nowhere near better than pvd's, but pvd' wasnt exactly good anyway! but all in all i wud of rather of stayed in the tiesto arena and thats a dead cert...

ok fair enuff. I was comparing them to what i heard on the radio. A few of Paul Van Dyks tracks he played in the first hour i thought were amazing. Same with Tiesto. I really enjoyed what i heard of his set. Overall from what i heard, I enjoyed Tiesto over PVD.

Some Dj's who produce tunes become a DJ from producing. Bet there's a lot of lower ranked Dj's or even bedroom Dj's that could mix better than big Dj's
