Originally posted by torontotrance I'm not clinging to anything, I'm just pointing out the old tiesto put more effort into mixing and tune selection then the current tiesto. This shows imo that he can do it and is just getting lazy. The world's number 1 deejay goes to ppl's heads because it's only one vote, once a year and not all the true fans vote. I'd love to see tiesto back in 98-2000 mode but that won't happen. I'd like to see the same effort and same ego as back then tho because I think it would make us ppl happy. I mean I must be a tiesto fan in a way because I would not have posted that long message if I did not want to see him return to better efforts. He can do better and when you see ppl not performing to their best then you wonder are they lazy.

yeah true but he's not in any rut or stumbling block to the majority of us (only this forum hates his guts - remember?)

even after winning 2003, he said he'd planned that - but not to be that popular from 2002... but his long term goals of worldwide popularity were achieved... what can you do - change a winning formula or stick with what you're doing.

I think mixing and technique wise... he's not lazy - as i put in my long essay back to yours... the multi-genre tracklists he's putting out at the moment takes a degree more skill than just banging out some uplifting tunes (a la Armin )

laziness is going around the world ? getting a CD album released ? getting through his daily record /tune listening ? i think to call any professional dj lazy is a bit naive... these guys work their ass off every week... and if u didnt like 1 set, its ur hang up not theirs.

you know what, i don't even care. all i know is that i saw him spin last Saturday and the set was perfectly catered to my taste and my ear. the only real anthem he played was beautiful things. and i couldn't ID almost half of the set, which is a strange thing for me in a tiesto set. the set was grimey, dark and way intense. the structural flow couldn't have been any better. he really had an entranced captivated audience for 3 +hours.

last night i saw ferry and that set was so boring and generic anthemic for me that I had to leave and go see Danny Howells (who owned me really hard till 10am today).

anyways, i'll give you this. Tiesto's attitude has changed. he was not as warm and passionate as i'm used to from him from seeing over 20 times in the last 4 years. But his attitude doesn't remind me of Oakey's attitude, it actually reminds me of PvD's. but i really couldn't give a shit, as long as he keeps getting musically more mature (and i'm already convinced of that one so there you go.

I'd suggest starting a new thread asking specifically for lyrics, this flame war isn't going to end any time soon

couldn't put it better myself. there is defo a more mature side to tiesto's tune selections these days that leaves the other trance djs... well... reaching for their copies of 'satellite' to try and win over the crowd again.
I liked a recent interview i found with Tijs where he says he is very pleased with his current direction - - as it is as close as he feels he has ever gotten to the kind of generic (but underlining trancey) sound Sven Vath was championing back in the day... something that inspired him...
and listening to a similar feeling through the new tiesto sound... (defo less mainstream than armin or ferry)... is inspiring a lot of us too!

see u in 10 years in Ibiza

I did forget to mention that his horrible sets continued after I saw him last and I've based on their opinion and my own not just mine. I suspect this will turn into a flame war and be closed but I've stated my opinion in a nice manner.

Master???? Eh....... nope, thee is only one master and that is PvD!
