Oh no... I'm perfectly aware of why I don't like it... because it's really repetitive, has a really dry, boring melody, and took no skill to produce. I just think this really sounds like the work of a newb in comparison to some of Tiesto's older productions. I just really don't like Tiesto's techno productions like this, lethal industry, flight 643, etc... more than anything, it's just cuz I really don't like techno all that much... and I think it's pretty sad when you get a bunch of people all voting for a techno song on a trance site just because tiesto produced it. I just think that there's a lot better techno than this, and the only reason people are voting for this one is because it's Tiesto, not because it's that great of a track. I guess I just have to surrender to the fact that this vote is nothing more than a popularity contest...

Traffic is not techno, nor is anything Tiesto has produced.

I think that's very debatable... I mean... it has 2 notes like a techno song. lol

1 & 5, Aalto and Envio for me.

The only part in the song where there is any real chord progression is for 16 bars during the break right before the final climax, which is quite disappointing IMO. Honestly, I see this as an average track at best... dwarfed by some of Tiesto's older works like Suburban Train, or his remix of Goldenscan - Sunrise. I really don't think I'm the only person who was disappointed with this one. Maybe I'm just too critical of a listener to enjoy the simplicity of a track like Traffic.
