| quote: | | Big room house has for the most part negatively affected the EDM scene, as it has seduced the minds of many up-and-coming producers and even superstars of the industry. Probably one of the most prominent metamorphoses to take place in the history of EDM would be the king himself Tiësto. In an interview with DJ Mag, Tiësto explains how irrelevant he felt as the “trance guy” and wanted to be more connected with the current sound of the rising generation. Now, the former trance king can be seen headlining essentially any major music festival and incorporating much of what people consider to be big room house music into his live sets. |
| quote: | Avicii describes his thoughts:
Producers spanning all subgenres within EDM can agree that creativity in production is at an all time low. It is especially noticeable when mainstream artists such as Avicii agree to this belief, as noted in an interview with The Guardian: “There are people looking for it and exploring but I feel it's so big now it is just getting milked. House music is losing all its melody as it becomes more about how dirty the drop is and how energetic it is. It loses touch with what music really is. It's gotten to a point where everything sounds the same. There is no longevity in what's happening at the moment." |

Tiesto sucks anyways. He's what you call a 'sheep' DJ that only spins what's 'in' at the moment. His mixes doesn't have any character to it, plus his transitions are dirty as hell..... not clean at all.
Can't go wrong with Paul Van Dork though, the old Van Dork not the new one. :gsmile:
*edit* And who the hell proclaimed Teisto to be the king of trance? Bahahahaha, thanks for the laugh! :haha: |

| "Back in my day"...house was funky basslines with easily danceable piano chords, disco string sections, soulful vocals, you get the idea...how this diarrhea pumped out at hyperspeed by talentless "musicians" who just finished downloading their first "edm" template for fruity loops ended up being called house is beyond me. |

Looks to me like that's just what he wants to do, not that strange if DJíng is your job. |

that article is poor written and the author is in clueless....
Corsten actually started the movement back in 2004 when he branched outside of trance and produced such ty tracks like Rock Your Body Rock. Granted he was playing trance in 2004, but Rock Your Body Rock was the furthest thing from trance
To say Corsten jumped on the bandwagon in 2011 is a joke. |

People still considered trance his main genre and admittedly he did continue to produce many trance songs at the time he switched over to the poppy electro sound he's into now.
Sometimes I look at these bigger DJs who got their start making and spinning trance and seemed to love it so much at the time and I just have to wonder what is it that makes them turn to playing commercial cheesy music because their wallets already got fattened by the trance crowd...so what's the reasoning? |

Tiesto is a lying piece of . He says he wants to switch over to euro-dance house music because the newer generation cannot relate to his old style trance, but that's a load of .
I've been in America ALL my life and trance music was never EVER big here. He never even gave trance a chance because nobody here in the states knows trance except for a small few.
He just hopped straight to house music instead of at least giving trance a shot here. It's not the new generation cannot understand his style, it's that he never attempted to even try appealing trance to my generation, and my country. |
