As for Armin, I don't think it's quite fair to judge too much on what you hear on ASOT. The idea of ASOT is to play new (unreleased) stuff, which is what he does. If the tracks aren't what they used to be anymore, that's not really up to him then is it? He just plays what's new...
Not liking his own stuff (anymore) is up to you. Some people enjoy it, others don't...
Of course my opinion is biased as Armada has brainwashed me and I must step in once something "bad" has been said about Armada or Armin...  |
surely as a so called pioneer, playing what ever direction a genre is going isnt what you should be doing.. and dont just take this answer from a self proclaimed armin hater, but surely providing a listening audience with what you think they should be hearing as trance listeners because its trance, as opposed to playing [by using your initiative and own knowledge] what you want to play as you know it is exciting and revolutionary, makes you no better than the likes of dave pearce.
maybe this comment is a little on the extreme side, but you would think a guy with armins major success over substantial years would at least know the difference between opening a new can of worms as opposed to scraping the bottom of a barrel.
i will completely eat my [and others] words right now and say the tiesto has recieved massive stick from ppl [and myself] for going it alone finding a new niche... struggling at first, bombarded with criticism, but hes doing good now, hell, ill even go as far as to say id even go see him live again. but id say for anything that armin has done wether it be sets or tracks, theyre just a chore to listen to.
and by your last comment, i think of this as quite a parody, ofcourse your gonna try and cover your tracks as we know your relationship with the accuse'd. might be a tough pill to swallow, but ppl that have got into trance in the last year might still think armins the man. but when i look at ferry and tijs doing theyre thing and doing well at it, and then see armin doing the same old but to a standard not even half of what he is capable of, one must ask questions
