Tiesto @ Piknic..roflmao.

Just go see Nick Pilon, at least he can mix and won't cost you an arm and a leg. I'm sure he would pose if you asked him nicely.

I want him to play a set "a la Energy 2000"

Build a time machine then, because that style has been dead for years.

People just like to bash him because he has been oh so sucessfull.
Fact is, he's a trance pioneer, at least for north america

You are ignorant and don't even know your own favourite genres history.

1.Okenfold pioneered trance in North America (he couldnt mix either.)

2.I'm not bashing him as much as telling you the style of trance you want has been dead a long time. No use crying , you are going to have to get used to it.

3. Read this. This guy has travelled all across the world to see him over 70 times, has a fan site and has widely been recognized as the biggest Tiesto fan on earth. Why does he say these things? Because he wants to hate his idol?

I'm becoming less motivated to care about what Tiesto is up to as well. Why?

Quite simply the DJ i was supporting c.2001-2 playing 6hr solo sets in clubs with a broad range of prog- tech- uplifting- trance has become obsessed with marketing and big room stadium gigs.

Thats partly the demand that lets him get away with it. But he could also wake up tomorrow and decide to go back to doing intimate venues again.

As PatmcGroin wrote on first page. 5 times a year he really kicks ass. The rest of the time is on auto-pilot playing tracklists that half resemble a hit parade, the other half a slap dash run through of recent "trancers" and a few "alternative tracks".

Club Life at face value is the same as the rest, but at least it has a second hour of interesting club music... the fact they choose to only podcast hour 1 (the uplifting vocal trance pap) proves the direction the Tiesto bandwagon is going in... and its one i'd rather jump off than head into some third-world-tour.

Trance Energy may have been an excellent showcase... but how can he translate that style to an 8 hour concert event? The truth is the big shows never work, they're just money spinners and hype mongers. If he would choose to balance his touring between festivals (playing trance energy/museumplein type sets) and some intimate venues (playing his wider style) then i would love it.

The issue is the rather large middle ground. Where for every 1 or 2 festival sets a year, and the 2-3 private afterparties, there are 125 tour events where Traffic and Adagio are belted out for the 200th time. Or the party has to fall under some kind of "brand".. EOL or ISOS, is there even a difference. Gone are the days where he's just turning up and playing music. Its all "set patterns" and "pyrotechnically correct" setlists... blabla.

Its not like he is not aware of it either. Did he dare play Adagio in holland last week?? No. So why do it everywhere else in the world then?? Grr its frustrating. And so many "older" fans who were there in the really good period 2001-2 have left him because of it.

And where the did I mention YOU were bashing? 2/3 people here bash him. Okenfold pioneered for ppl in the mid 20s right now, tiesto did. Proof is I never heard one set of oakenfold and I dont give a crap. And im not crying I enjoy the current trance right now 2.

P.S. Are you a techno nerd?:conf:
elFreak
no im the guy that used to be the biggest idiot on here, congratulations.
