The atb remix of Adagio for strings, is good, but out of all the mixes this is how i'd rank em.
1. Ferry Corsten mix
2. Skip Raiders - Another Day
3. Atb Mix
4. Tiesto mix
I have a special place for ferry mix, cause it was one of the first trance songs to get me into the genre

well you're a dumbass! the skip raiders and atb mix fucking suck salty balls. You're obviously a Tiesto hater....even people who don't like Tiesto that much appreciate the quality of his treatment with this track.

I am soooo over Tiesto - what a twat... His remix fucking blew... it was like listening to some cover band playing a rendition of the "Stairway to heaven" in a piss-stank dive bar pretending they are Led Zeppelin...
Tiesto's mix (even heard live) sucks big Chebacka balls...
Ferry Corsten's mix is just amazing... It sucks that Tiesto has little originality when it comes to producing.... Most of the ideas in Gouryella's productions came from Ferry, not Tiesto - that's why Tiesto (being a spot-light addict) said he doesn't want to share it with Ferry. Well, fuq him.
I give Tiesto credit - he has been able to pull off some decent productions in the past but since he hit #1 spot he has been too busy basking in the spotlight, instead of living up to the expectations not only as a DJ but as a producer.
just my $40.00 worth.

Ferry's mix is good, but I think tiestos mix is better. Ferry's mix is just more epic I think.

OLLLLLLLLDDD Thread.......
Anyways, as I've always said, no dance mix of this tune can compare to the beauty of the original string quartet composition or the vocal choir arrangement heard on the movie "Lorenzo's Oil".

actually imo...only a full orchestra can bring out the strength and swells in the song. and the greatest experience? if you're actually playing in it.

been there, done that. but a full orchestra? that would be blasphemy. only a string orchestra can do it, which parts just duplicate the original string quartet movement with an added double bass part.
anyways, this is probably the piece i've played the most in orchestras throughout the years. thank god for tiesto for finally doing it justice in the dancefloor after years of having to deal with that sickening and horrendous epic happy prissy mix by fairy. j/k

hehe, i meant full as in full string orchestra as opposed to a chamber group. but yea, back to topic...i'm torn btwn the two. tiesto's is so much techier and harder (which i like) but ferry's has the better buildup/breakdown.
i do recall tho, back when i was JUST getting into trance, thinking it was blasphemy that there existed a "techno" remix of barber's adagio. hehe. how times have changed.

haha yeah i knew you couldn't mean a full orchestra as in winds, brass and percussion included. that would ruin the piece
i also thought the same the first time i heard the ferry remix, and i still think the same way about it. for me, it is blasphemous. but i was there at TiC live, and hearing this Tiesto mix for the first time ever was one of the most incredible revelations of my life. it was just too intense, a religious experience
