Somebody told me the other week that the voting has started again for the DJ Magazine top 100, and I thought,no way, is that a year ago already? Yes, it's already a year ago and I think back of all the great moments of the past year; playing in Hong Hong after Christmas, New Year's Eve at Times Square in New York, South Africa in January/February, then of course my concert on the 10th of May in Arnhem, Holland which is still the greatest night of my life. After that my six weeks of touring through North America, which felt as one long holiday with great performances everywhere. Then the summer festivals like Dancevalley and Creamfields, both amazing, and of course last but not least my summer residency in Ibiza at Club Amnesia.
Some people say Ibiza has lost it's glamour and it's not the same anymore. I don't believe that, because I felt that this year was great, and when I talked to other dj's they said the same thing. This year, the atmosphere on the island has been amazing. I can't believe it's already finished this coming Thursday. I have played every week with lots of joy and with an epic crowd! If I think back of all these great memories I do believe another year passed by and a lot has happened.
Because of all the moments I mentioned above, I believe this has been my best year as a dj so far, and I consider myself very lucky to be in this position. The next couple of months I will be working in the studio to make a lot of new music for my DJ-sets. I already finished some tracks and I find it amazing how people react on my music.
For example 'Traffic'. I just made that track for fun to use when I was playing live gigs, not to give it a serious release. But because of the great reaction of the people (they go wild when I play it!), the record company and I decided to release it on 12" and cd-m/cd-s. The track doesn't represent a new musical direction I am taking, but it's something different. The way I look at the productions I make are like paintings, not something that has to be in a similar style all the time. That's what I like to achieve when I make music, to entertain and surprise people, so that they wonder; did Tiësto make this track as well?
Also the reaction on my version of Adagio For Strings has been amazing. I made this just for the grand opening for Tiësto In Concert but people ask me to play it wherever I go. This past weekend I played it in Athens as one of my last tracks. It was near the waterfront in a venue with around 4000 people. It was 7 in the morning and the sunrise was on its way. An incredible moment I will not forget, 4000 screaming Greeks with hands in the air, sunrise and Adagio playing. I had goosebumps all over!. Moments like that remind me of the reason why I want to be a deejay...
Cheers,
Tiësto |
