Tiesto's productions suck compared to his other stuff...

He used the same sounds from so much of the music from In My Memory...


But I guess he was limited by the guys in the olympics, and also the time he had....

1 or 2 nice tracks....

This album takes a while to get used to...

excellent stuff, the man is a machine - just keeps releasing track after track in such a short space of time and there all pretty decent. just ordered the vinyls from juno

Originally posted by isoterra I'm not of the opinion that bringing in a track 2 bars late, galloping the beats and not bothering to fade out the previous one create any kind of tension.

It's fucking annoying... get's u out of the "feel" for the music...

I can't believe Tiesto almost trainwrecked on an Album... Or was this directly Ripped off the AThen's opening ceremony? Either case, it's pretty shocking to converge on trainwrecks...

This album sucks. Just Be had some good tunes on it, especially 'Adagio For Strings' & 'Traffic'. But this new album is only for making money. There are only 2 or 3 trax that sounds OK for me, the rest is real crap. Especially Tiesto's version of Rollerball's Albinoni is so weak compared to the Above & Beyond workout on this track.
Tiesto should take a year without any release;; it would be better for 'em. Hate this Tiesto hype at the moment in every corner!!!

I bought a promo copy at my local record store tonight, and I'm guessing the promo is exactly the same as the official release, save for the "licensed for promotional use only" tag stamped on the cd. The liner notes have a few pictures of the opening ceremonies, a letter from Tiesto talking about his experience, and a description of each track. I don't know if anyone has mentioned it yet but Ancient History is a "free interpretation" of a song called "Zanaradikos" by Thrace. Tiesto said Montana made Breda 8PM as a birthday present. Also, Tiesto says Athena is his own interpretation of Albonini's "Adagio in G Minor" and it is one of his all-time favorite classical pieces and fit so well with the atmosphere in the stadium.

HAHAHAHAHA!!!
just got the cd this morning. it sounds cool. i like the fact that many tracks on the cd have some greek elements and honestly i think
his set and the cd fit exactly with the olympic spirit and the the hole athens 2004 thing.
good job tiesto but you should have worked more on the tracks you produced and leave the remakes to your studio......
btw. Tiesto haters... get a life

Sorry, but he's not. It's obviously a matter of taste, not about being wrong or right.

I personally enjoy Tiësto's Albinoni a lot more than Rollerball's and overall I'm actually enjoying this album more than Just Be.

I agree, ... the tracks are quite good, expecially 'Heroes', Athena and Olympic Flame!

So stop complaining you all, just buy it and like it or don't buy it and shut your heads
