Scooter deserves a place in the top 10, because he (they) are in the business since 1992. That is not a joke, I just realised they are making music over 10 years now

heh, I grew up listening to them I don't really like their latest tunes, but there are some good oldies, like "Waiting for Spring"... reminds me of when I was 15 or so The same goes for Radiotrance, but they're not very well known, I guess

Sorry friend that's BS considering that Tiesto is the first NON-BRITISH DJ to win the award

Originally posted by miki0 Ive seen some pretty interesting but especially ignorant remarks in here but one totally tops the list. I read that Paul van Dyk - For an Angel is from 1994? Very interesting but back then PvD hadnt done a lot either yet and For an Angel is really from 97 instead of 94, but it doesnt affect his dj skills in 2002 now does it? And Tiesto being an oakey wannabe but without the talent? Dont get me wrong here, I absolutely love both of m but Tiesto is definately a better mixer then Oakey. My mother can even hear that. And as far as I know Oakey has used so much more of Tiesto's work then the other way around or not? And Oakey's quality is choosing the right tracks and def. not mixing m together. Just accept the fact that Tiesto is #1 and nobody else is. Next year's another chance for all of m innit

Actually, you are quite ignorant yourself. The E-Werk mix of For an angel may have been 1997, but the original was 1994. I would do the research before you assert a negative opinion next time, especially calling someone else ignorant.

Go see paul's disco:
1994 Paul van Dyk
"45 RPM" Vinyl 12" Album
1 Paul van Dyk I´m Comin´(To Take You Away Too) A1
2 Paul van Dyk A Magical Moment A2
3 Paul van Dyk Rushin´ (Revolutions Per Minute) B1
4 Paul van Dyk 45RPM B2
5 Paul van Dyk For An Angel C1
6 Paul van Dyk Spannung (Mad Housemix) C2
7 Paul van Dyk Ooh! La! La! (Krankenhouse Mix) D1
8 Paul van Dyk Pump This On 45 D2

It has a lot to do with his quality as a dj. PvD has been up near the top for years. He is consistent, loyal to his fans, and not one to jump on any bandwagons. The point was simply that van Dyk is established, whereas Tiesto is not so much.

And jeezus! Tiesto mixes better than Oaky?!?

You are sadly mistaken my friend. Maybe on Tiesto's production/mix CD's, but Oaky is incredibly fluent in his mixing, Tiesto is horribly horribly inconsistent. And I despise Oakenfold's track selections, I usually give Tiesto a chance.

But you've got your shit way backwards there, man.

My .02.

Peace.

Well now for my actual comment on this topic, Tiesto got number one and absolutely deserves it. His essential mix from Club Space is by far the best mix I've heard all year, every tune is classic, and his mixing second to none (accept maybe Digweed ) Seeing him was one of the greatest experiences of my life.

To all who say he doesn't deserve to be number one, I respect your oppinions because I think Digweed and PvD deserve it just as much, and yes, matt hardwick should definetly be higher, but that's just the way things go.

Now, to all you people whining about how Tiesto is writing "commercial" songs and "selling out", WTF is tiesto supposed to do? I mean seriously, do you think he should make his songs worse just so he can appease a few arrogant snobs who need to listen to "Underground" music just so they can think they're taste in music is better than every one elses? Tiesto writes what he wants, the fact that a lot of people like his music and you don't is no excuse to assault his credibility as a DJ and a songwriter. Saying that you don't like his music is a much more dignified comment then saying He's too "commercial". All that says about you is that you don't really care about the music, because if you did you wouldn't care if it was "commercial" or not.

I think another justification that Tiesto has for being number one is that he has split off from the generic dutch sounding roots and has explored and developed his own truly unique style, and that through his music people who might not have had an interest in the club scene are now avid enthusiasts (and not just for tiesto). I think his contribution to the scene over this year and his entire career have been tremendous and he has never gotten his due credit.

Tiesto is a great artist, a great entertainer, and a wonderful person to be around, but most importantly of all, Tiesto is an incredible DJ.

Umm, his live mixes on magik 6 and magik 7 (and all the other mixes for that matter cuz they are ALL live) are excellent, and when I saw him his mixing was awesome, and on his latest essential mix it is almost seamless. I'm a dj myself, I know what mixing is good and what is bad. IN FACT, if you would like to hear BAD mixing, listen to PvD - Live at Rosenmontags Oaky's mixing on his Ibiza essential mix was also somewhat shitty, tho when I saw him he was ok.

I'm not necessarily saying you're wrong, I just hope you have some shit to back up such bold statements.
