That documentary was way better than it had any right to be. I was expecting a hagiography. Some real moments of honesty. I liked:

Shows a real self awareness. |
It's funny because nowadays he's really trying hard to cater to the kids who will be disinterested with him in about 2 years or maybe even less. |

If anything, losing #1 place this year is probably what motivated him to tour so much. |
I predicted that he would fall, and I got beat up on here and on Facebook for saying that I wanted it to happen. I've been an Armin fan since I was 12, and I felt that he needed a little kick in the ass. PLUS, it gave him a chance to shift his sound a little. I hope his new album is a little more like his recent sets, and a little less like Mirage.
Falling from #1 was the best thing that has happened to him in the last five years. |

i duno, i think we see some shades of what we want to hear, but majority is still electro, especially begining of sets. he always ends with his classics, but would rather here more uplifting 138+ BPM non-vocal.
univeral religion chapter 6 cd1 is pretty good though. |

Armin lost me with Mirage. That album was meh compared to his previous work like Shivers and Imagine. I'm hoping he regains his old sound instead of this wave of electro I've been hearing.
Does anyone else realize that Armin Only in LA is coming up on 4 years now? That was the turning point in EDMs popularity in LA |

Or not. From a pure marketing standpoint, this is how to stay relevant. Who wouldn't want to bring in as many "kids" as possible? Even (most of) the purest artists would like their music to reach as many as possible.
Now you may consider this selling out and not being true to himself; I won't argue (I still like what he's doing, but then, I don't find pop music some sort of great evil). I can see why someone might think this. But wanting to appeal to new young fans is the way to maintain the brand. |

| Tried watching this video, but just shows that it's private now. I guess KLM's viewing window ended a few hours before I had a chance to see it... :wtf: |
