Tiesto has been spinning mostly trance all these while. Tiesto trying to be like Oakey? More like Oakey trying to be like Tiesto. Please, get your brains sit up in the right position.

excellent point man, right on!!

PUSH WHY DIDN'T U TELL ME THIS at TIESTO???!!! *DROOL*


My fav PVD tune is Another Way. That record is a masterpiece! I wonder why he never plays sunblind.

while on the subject of pvd, we had a poll/thread on toronto forum who had a better set, tiesto or pvd... i had seen both a few weeks back, and i was VEEEEERY dissapointed with pvd...

What the hell do you guys know?
Three years ago, you all know squat shit about Tiesto.
When Tiesto started getting popular, you all feckin worshiped him, saying he is the next best thing..blah, blah, blah....

Then, Oakenfold was the joke. Playing all cheesy trance and all that crap. Before that, what was Oakey playing?
For all you people, who are not new to the scene, knows that Oakey has been changing his style of music every few years. Acid house, Drum n Bass, goa trance....Now, he is playing all the cheesy trance, and you calling Tiesto copying Oakenfold, when all along Tiesto was hammering trance??
Get a fookin grip. Oakenfold is moving towards progressive now, then who is the one copying?
Oakey is fuckin smart, he moves where the money is, and all you people are hitting on the wrong djs.

Yes, same tunes are played in a set.
Programming wise it will differ.
Tiesto always keep his mixes tight, thus more energy.
Oakey on the other hand always mixes at the end of each track, creating flow, lesser energy.

Seriously, you kids know shit. Only know how to compare Djs, make sarcastic remarks, making yourself look as if you know a lot when all you know makes you look like a bloody fool.
Pathetic.

[b]We are NOT comparing styles just the simple fact that they both play the same old records. Not exactly the same records but they play the same records in every city. They play old played out tunes and anthems. The 2 of them NEED to go record shopping badly!


Tiesto is fully capable of playing a spine tingling mind blowing set he just isn't maximing is potential. I still love him though.

As is Oakey...as much as you dislike him...they both have a lot of talent...I challenge anybody that's actually sat behind two decks in front of a crowd of people to say anything bad about Tiesto or Oakey or PVD for that matter. If you've never actually spun before you really aren't qualified to say anything in the first place...

Btw, Twilo, this isn't directed at you personally, just seemed like a good segue into my mini rant.

That's all.

i know in my heart oakey has been my favorite dj. He is always a step ahead of the crowd in track selection, even before tiesto. I remember when his cd "traveling" came out in october of 2000, there were two very unique songs in it that tiesto has now begun to routinely play in his sets. They were utah saints - "lost vagueness" and jan johnston - "flesh". So guys dont say that Oakenfold is bad and all this other crap. Can you hold a beat better then oakey? Id like to hear you try...

- wookieslut

p.s. golden girls - "kinetic" (frank de wulf remix) is the best song of 1992.

So if Oakie...ever heard Goa Silver Mix ? Or his Fluro CD's ? I know they are hold mixes but get your hands on those and you will realize the true genious of Oakenfold. The man can make magik when he puts his mind to it. The Goa mix is pure class...probably one of the best mixes I have ever heard.

if he goes where the money is, then its always going to be commercially angled, so oakeys REAL fans will be made to look daft by the thousands of clubber-wannabe-clones. He may be smart and making a lto of money, but people who change their music to suit commercial value lose practically all my respect, even tiesto now. And as for cheese. Why do you all think only plucky, tinny, ian van dahl-esque trance is cheese? you can get prog cheese, hard house cheese, theres a lot of shit out there, take that remix of "hide u". in my mind that was cheese. the original with some wierd sounds in and labelled prog. woop de doo. nothing against oaky, tiesto, or van dyke, but i dislike it when peopel change their music style/genre just to make more money, coz they forgetting the REAL fans that liked their ORIGINAL style. sorted
