We are a small minority, so we don't get what we want when we go see him. :( That's why he's not worth $100+ unless you go see him somewhere special dropping an extended set where he gets the chance to play what he wants, not just what the kids want to hear. |
Pat, you hit it on the nose. Mixing...not so much. Variety and song selection. I am with you. Thats the main reason why I still enjoy him. The songs he chooses are truly amazing trance anthems. And yes, in an extended set (not just an hour) I find that he kills it. I have been listening to Pod casts lately and I do like what I hear always new and the throw back.
Ok guys dont bash me, its just my oppinion. |

True that bro I agree with that statement 100% but his mixing was actually decent when he was at his prime. Nyana was mixed really well and one of my favorites. I like ISOS 4-5 also. |
dude the mixing in isos5 was TERRRRRRRIBLE! his worst one imho. personally i like 3 and 6 the best.
i just wish tiesto would come out with another in the magik series. that would be insane. :eyespop:
