Originally posted by siastyle Okay iv hurd the Album and lemmi tell you guyz.... Tiesto is gono make it back to the top again with these hits. The thing about it is that hes trying 2 bring a new style tho just like he did with Just be and it worked. they songs areunt TOO HIGHT up. but the vocals acaully are the best thing in 2007. The Track Carpe Noctum is like traffic but it hink he could of prefected the shit ouf it. but generalllyy its an amazing album...oh and Ten Seconds Before Sunrise is like Forever today TIMES 12

When you read a book or listen to music, you often know immediately who wrote the book or made the tune. That little thing is called "style". Both "S0ur1s m0rt3" and "Radio Esclave" have their own. But sometimes, when you produce "in your style" it can be seen as boring, just like here. Why? Imho in that case it's because their conceptions of the "borders" of the style is closed. I mean, they will prefer use the same sound or the same composition process instead of looking for something new. A good example is Kosmas Epsilon. Listen to All is heaven and to his latest stuff (like his remix of Heatsteric on otb). The drums are dramatically different, but you know that kosmas made it.

Dunno if I'm clear enough, I'm still a bit drunk.

No, he caters to people. If every track he put out was a failure, he would change. Its common sense.

Well, I don't really feel like reading through all 15 pages of this thread right now, so I'll just go ahead and jump right in::

Originally posted by RJT Yet he seems to get far less flack for it. Why?

Simple popularity. The more popular you are in general, the more shit you get. Deadmau5 is much more popular (generally speaking) than Radio Slave, thus he gets more shit. Prydz even more so.

And now, for my own $0.02:

I can't really give producers shit for doing what sounds good to them, even if it's formulaic. If I like it, I'll buy it and listen to it; if I don't, then I won't. I do have beef with those producers who do it simply out of ease and convienence just so that they can release a new record each week and keep the cash flowing in, but I don't feel that Radio Slave is one of those guys. Ninja edit:

I believe so. So, I don't really feel like I can give him shit for it, even though I only own a hand full of his tunes (I really love the ones I do have though).

Deliberate attempts to do something 'different' just for the hell of it has resulted in some of the most pretentious twattery ever to breach human ears. So, these days I tend to be a lot less critical and just buy tracks that I like... and now that I'm producing, I can just make my own too.
