I just noticed that last part. Sounds like a good deal.

Not gonna put him down like the others just because he's releasing new stuff. Besides, if he didn't release some of the stuff he played at the Olympics, people would verbally bitchslap him just as much as they're doing now.

Curious to hear some of these though. Should be interesting.

The fiancee would be the first in line, for killing a huge opportunity to make more coin and sell a CD to people who watched the olympics but did not see him live or know anything about his music.

Originally posted by Mr.Mystery I see your point(s) and respect them even if I don't agree with all of them. I do think Tiësto can be a bit of a hit and miss, though. He's always been that way, really, it's just that noone seemed to mind until he got as big as he is now...

It's hard for any of those guys who spin trance. Almost every trance dj is hit and miss. Only a few bring unique tracklistings and they usually have flaws technically. I would definitely rather listen to Tiesto than a George Acosta or a Micro that play the same monotonous style all the time. I just think Armin Van Buuren should get a lot more props than he does, and, certainly, more than Tiesto does. He plays sets with just as good a variety of good music, but is far superior technically. I will lay off the Tijs bashing, and make sure that if I have a comment, it's not a reckless slam, but a thought that is stimulating and helps the thread rather than derails it. I hope this comment is more acceptable to you guys.

hahahahahahahahaha I missed TA for ridiculous comments like this one. So you're 16 years old and discovered trance two months ago?

I thought the ASOT epidemic would have gone away by now, but I was wrong. Why can't people tell the really basic difference between a real artist with a trascendental impact on the history of 21st century music with a simple follower like Armin van Boring?

alot of thank to ur mind

I don't know if you have half an ear for what's going on on the decks, but if you try and tell me Tiesto is anywhere near as technically solid as Armin, you should check yourself into the asylum. Agreed that Armin came after Tiesto, but there are several protege's better than their predecessor's. And I'll compare trance cd collections and trance record collections with you any day. Hold on, I don't have time, cause I'd be here typing for several days.

Yeah, why can't you.

LOL at this thread... we already got 9 pages on the other Tiesto-Olympics thread (of which, maybe 1/2 page was actually useful). And this one already has 3 pages of flamebait... *sigh*

Just wait... when/if Armin becomes #1, he'll be bashed too. Heck... it's happening already with all the ASOT bashers.

Too many haters in this world... just leave it be.

If you don't like it, fine. But just stop spamming the forums with the same old shit (you know who you are!). I'm gonna stop because this too is just adding to the crap.

I think I have an ear since I study music professionally. Even if it's classical music, I can tell whether a 4x4 juxtaposition of rhythm and melody sounds appealing to my ear.

The fact is that yes, Tiesto is way more wild and careless most of the time when it comes to precision beatmatching. but I don't know anyone in Dutch trancedom that is more creative or a more comprehensive artist and musician. His eclectic, radical sudden contrasts is what has always made Tiesto my favorite since the early Forbidden Paradise and Magik series almost a decade ago. His track placement is most of the time incredibly effective in the dancefloor, even if ithe transition would appear as irrational or ridiculous to a lot of people.

His own musical evolution has practically paved the way for what has accounted taste and variety in dancefloors all over the world. In strictly musical terms, I think there is no comparison from my point of view. Armin is alright, but he doesn't come even close in my books.

There is a rumor that Dido sells cds for money.
