| We could go way back into the 90s if we wanted to define an era when deep house was actually fresh on the scene. |

| The deep house of the '90s was a notably different flavour to what we're talking about now. Slow, deep, warm, melodic house started becoming seriously popular again around 2009, right around the time the nu-disco trend really kicked off. To suggest that Tiesto is jumping aboard because of a compilation that came out a couple of weeks ago is pretty silly. |

Avid trance fans have absolutely no ing clue what's actually going on in the world of electronic music.
Not in the slightest.
Not until one of the 40+ year old pillars of some long-dead scene declare they're making an "artistic move". |

| You'd think Vinnie would be aware of this, as his beloved Way Out West actually got on board the bandwagon nice and early with their last album back in '09. |

My least favorite album of theirs, it didn't come across as a deep house album in the slightest (progressive house, sure). Clearly, we're working with different definitions.
I just thought it was an interesting time for this Tiesto announcement to surface, because he likes attention and misses his status as DJMag's #1 no doubt.
Since the hostility is getting poured on thick and I'm apparently an avid trance fan with no clue what's happening in the world of electronic music, I think it's time to let some folks enjoy their chinstroking and exit this stage. |

| It isn't deep house, but it was certainly WOW applying a warm, funky, retro-house influence to their sound, which was the prevailing direction at the time. WOW are too much of a class act to outright style-bite, but coming 5-6 years after their last album and the end of prog, coming out of 5 year siege of minimal and tech domination, that they made an album that sounded like that shows they had a finger on the pulse. |

| Alright, I can appreciate that description (a fusion, if you will). I hadn't really considered much of their work as deep house (traditionally speaking) until the aforementioned Deep05 compilation. |

You guys are absurd.
No wonder new users avoid this dusty ass forum. A bunch of elitists using every opportunity to bash something.
The mix is 100 times better than anything he's played or produced recently. Forget it's Tiesto. It's a podcast with some groovy music. It's dope.
But nahhhh. We have to argue about all the variables outside of it.
Just STFU. Jesus. |
