exactly, people should develop their own style instead of following the fkn big jocks or playing evey record off the Armin labels. who cares what tune you play as long as it sounds good and gets you dancing. better if no one else has played it anyway IMO.

& yes ASOT on Kiss is obviously not a bad thing.

wow pana has dropped off the raydar...

anyway, anything that exposes people to dance music is good right?

So people find out they can hear Armin on radio in melb they listen to more stuff on that station and then might go out to see those dj's, live and in person.

I mean Kiss FM is the only reasn I know who Sean Quinn is. Its the reason I went to GateCrasher at the docks and stayed till the light was creeeping in.

So it can't be bad exposure for the radio station. Am I wrong?

we need this up hear in brizzy, it would save me d/ling it every week ASOT not in it's haydays? sure it is, hence why all the diff country's are liscencing it too play on there stations.

that is incorrect.

the reason why all the countries are now playing it on their stations is because ASOT was dumped by ID&T for whatever reason. Once it was dumped by them an international broadcasting company purchased the rights to ASOT and then re-sells the show. So it was a business move which has now made ASOT a world wide radio show, certainly nothing to do with how good the show is now..

it used to be so much better...

"the newest tunes selected... the hottest tracks in a row..."

"armin van buuren.. in the mix.."

its a shame the two parts were scrapped

I'm sure tiesto had something to do with with banning of ASOT on ID&T

No we havent really changed, that much, just gotten a little more picky thats all. Probably due to the terrible slump halfway through last year and the beginning of this year, where most of the tunes were just crap (ask any trance DJ who tried to put a decent promo together during this time). Producers have finally got there arses in to gear ...

Lets start an Anti-Tiesto alliance ..

Really though, how can this be a bad thing? At least ASOT is commercial enough to be accessible to the non trancer, with out beeing TOO cheesy, I guess. It's the best way to get people more inclined to go out and support locals who play a similar sort of sound.

btw what episode are we up to?

this thursday will be episode 217..


and yes, it is GOOD for trance for it to be more accessible, however i think it would be better for the 'education' of people listening to have the shows format what is once was.. with interviews, and future favourites, and tune of the weeks, and talking and stuff in first hour and a non stop mix in the 2nd.

ahh well

Totally agree.


Punters dont need education when they go out to clubs, .. they either like what they hear or they dont. Like a wise man once said .. for a DJ go out and play with the intention of educating a crowd, simply suggests that they dont know what they are listening to and what they are and like listening to is crap ... it just insults their taste and intelligence ... thats just my opinion

If i recall correctly ASOT was dumped from ID&T due to problems with its radio licence. Some other things happened with ID&T aswell, i heard the lable and radio station (now known as Fresh FM) split for some reason. Armin had always done ASOT for free for ID&T which makes you wonder if any of this was the real reason.

Anyway, I dont see anything wrong with him getting air time over here, I just wonder if the ASOT epis will be a week behind or not because of the difference between out broadcast times and the US/EU broadcast times. If not we'll hear them before anyone else .
