Because there aren't any. Tiesto is a fine piece of brilliant marketing - a buisness model that works remarkably well. It's like taking a mundane rock and convincing millions of people that it's the best thing since sliced bread. It's an amazing feat really. :wtf:

wow. If only you could find a way to market all these wastes of time.

People like him because he is famous, and yes he is overrated. Years ago he was fairly respectable as a producer, then his music went downhill but it didn't matter because he had learned how to exploit mindless fanatism and dj-worship.

But then again I am a fan of prodigy's no good (wish I could get rid of the lyrics though). Who else finds tiesto to be overrated ?


tiesto is what you'd call a 'consensus product' just like a mcdonalds hamburger, an ipod, a honda civic, the windows operating system, etc. nothing more nor nothing less.

he is just a spoilt brat from the cor


The question is more like, why Tiesto isnt as good as he used to be ?

1998-2002 vs now

The answer is simple, he is going after the newbie crowds. People who dont know the genre too well, and giving them a cheesy lesson about this genre.


He has changed commercial trance in a big way, and right now,no trance Elites can stand him.

Same goes to PVD, Armin, Ferry , Matt Darey....etc
They are using their fame to attract the newer crowds by the way.

Point to note : Money comes from commercial/pop music, and thats what he they are after.

Obviously, we have discussed this issue a hell lot here. No one wants to go through the pain of ting at Tiesto again.
