I lost interest in Tiesto a long time ago so I don't plan on listening to this at all...but this talk of him nearly trainwrecking got me interested.

Which mix is it? I might listen to the stations copy to get a good laugh.

I"m not a producer (no money), so I'm not the authoritty on TWs...

WEll... Listen to the transition between Heroes and Breda 4Pm... that's kinda dodgy...

Then listen to Olympic flame and it's transittion to Lethal Industry...That's just poor....

I just think the guy could take a few tips from Sasha and Digweed.... BUt i think Tiesto is just to lazy to fix up these little technical points... He shoudl release an album just to remind everyone he can mix.... Anyone who's listened to Magik 1-3 will know he is capable of good mixing... but then again.... they're albums...:P I'm not into live sets as much anyhow....

U know guys can obviously tell what Tiesto did can't u???....

Obviously the guy just grabbed all of his previous productions... He then just got rid of some parts (???Layers of sounds????), added some new bits, maybe cut it around a bit... and vola!.... new tracks... The rest he flogged off other albums

BUt hey.... he didn't have much time to make it... I forgive him....

So what? People do it all the time and nobody seems to care.

Some artist have been doing the same track for years.

indeed... look at probspot and ozgur can but nobody gives a fuck about them.
And probspot and ozgur DO have time to release something new and refreshing. Tiesto hardly had any time for this album.

Mm-hmm. People attack Tijs because hes number one. If he only made it to second or third (and still did TiC and the Olympics), he wouldn't be getting ragged on like this, or at least not as much. Everybody who hits number one will have to deal with this. It's a shame, because they do their best with the time that they have, but for many people, it's never enough.

I think this is better than Just Be, personally speaking...

WEll...

I know personally I don't give a fuck what "NUMBER" a DJ is... If he's good I listen to him... It's quiete simple...

BUt u have to admit... most people out there (from my experience anyhow) who isn'aren't really into EDM just know one thing: Who the #1 is....

Then they go out and buy all the guys stuff... I think what bothers people is that Tiesto is so damn different. And certainly, if ur #1 u have that "AURA" around ur head... becasue so many more people listen to u, simply because they only know ur no.1. So expectations on the guy are a hell of a lot higher... I think that's kinda understandable.

Personally, I don't think he's all that good a representation of trance anymore... I've loved his music from like 1999-2003... but it's kinda dying out... maybe it's just my preferences changing. I think it's only the #1 3 times in a row think that's keeping him popular, mainly because of the people who don'aren't into EDM all that much just listen to him because all they know is that he's been #1 3 times in a row....

Take for example a TV show in AUstralia, that's for music... It's all EDM shit... Now, those guys don't have a god damned clue who good artists are. It's obvious when they describe Ferry Corsten as being a breakbeat artist. What's worse, is that Ferry Corsten appears on a breakbeat album by MOS featuring Australis's number #1 DJ, Kid Kenobe (anyone actually heard of him??? lol) , which was promoted on the show... so more people will buy it thinking, Ferry Corsten does breakbeat....

So basically, the retards never play anything half decent, ebcause they don't know shit about EDM. BUT! The minute a Tiesto Track comes out... IT"S ON THE SHOW! They GO ON AND ON ABOT WHAT A GREAT DJ HE IS and tell ya everything about him.... people watching the show are gonna go out and buy Tiesto shit... not knowing any better... and only buying his stuff, purely because he's #1.

I think when a DJ is in that statuss... everythign he makes had better be damned good, and nothing cheap...

but like i said before.... I forgive Tijs, because he does have more pressure, he someone who always tries to keep up with the latest style (probably not realising that HE IS the latest style), and because he had no fucking time to make Parade of The Atheletes...

Well, does the fact that I've never heard of either artist (and I'm sure this is the case for many other people) suggest that what u said, was LITERALLY TRUE????

It sux when they just make minor changes to old tracks man... I guess a littel bit is OK, but seriously, there has to be a limit doesn't there?

Can you please explain which songs on the album are the same as previous work he has done?

Yes. Just because you haven't heard the songs, does not mean that they re-created it from old works.

Saying what you just said is like saying, "I've never heard of John Doe in South Africa, so I'm sure he doesn't exist."
