I think it's fair enough tiesto plays different stuff these days, even tho i think he sucks now: it's his choice, and he shouldn't be bagged for it: after all, if tiesto stayed no. 1, there'd be no room for the new-comers... |
yup. if Tiesto kept playing what he used to he could be just doing it to keep the old fans (and maybe the majority) happy. if he's not playing what he wants to play, they yeah maybe he's slightly selling out on himself. as long as he's playin what HE wants to play, and not what people expect/want him to play, that what matters.
and having said that, i don't see anything wrong with playing what will sell tickets either, and playing what he wants in his own time. i don't think there's anything wrong with dj'ing for money if you want to do it for a job. it keeps a stack of people happy and sticks money in ya pocket. when they go away, u play what u wanna hear dammit!
it's like Eric Prydz making 'call on me' etc for the masses, making a killing (that tune would have increased his stash a tad don't u say?), then Pryda bangin out what Pryda wants to bang out for himself. compare that tune with Aftermath and his essential mix... u just can't! (although proper education fit nicely into that deep arse prog set and sold like hotcakes too)
