does it make sense to some of you that people have to change. i am not contradicting or agreeing with with any of the tijs-oakie wanker statements (because, honestly, this is a stupid discussion in the first place but i feel i need to make a point here.), but just think about this for a second. have you ever heard s&d's renaissance: the mix collection? have your hard them in the last few years? the style is completely different. oakey did just the same and the fact that he is doing more commercial stuff doesn't automatically pin him down as a sellout. maybe he just wants to do something different... would you like to go though a career doing the exact same ing thing day-in and day-out? i know i wouldn't; it would get boring. he's moved on and so many people's response to this is something along the lines of: "oakenfold is a selout wanker." before you go and judge people so harshly, wise up. what you read in magazines and on 'trance websites' is not always true and is often-times biased. and if you honestly think oakey is a wanker and a sellout at least respect him for what he's done for trance music and untimately, each of our lives. how can you argue with his essential mix from ibiza in 99? its ing beautiful. the stuff he puts out now may not be to your liking but someone else may like it. its almost like saying all rappers are sellouts cuz they are popular and you dont like the music they make. brian transeau produces for britney spears and n'sync and no ones calling him a sellout - hes way more involved in the pop scene than oakie yet oakie gets all the . you gotta be more open-minded sometimes and just deal with someone else's chice to change. posting bitter threads on a message board is ing useless.

ok nice point BUT yes his mix in '99' was good, i am sick of people like you who are living in the past "oh look what he did in 98, look what he did in 99" i am talking about NOW, Mr oakenfold has gone comercial, some of his recnt tracks (and you will all know what iam talking about) are aimed direct at the charts. he makes appearances on comercial TV/MTV etc. and basically gives out the impressions he is a sell out, wanting to be a celeb.
as for tiesto he ain't as bad i just think he is e, and if your gonna argue that he was no.1 blah blah then go to my thread in uk section, that vote is a popularity vote. |

Tiesto is a Oakenfold wanna be, anybody who disagrees isnt to tuned in, every body knows he is, but thats not a bad thing for his fans as Oakenfold was king in 99 and if some-one copied him then it was cool. |
Oakey was never the king for me. I've been listening to Tiesto since 97 and he's been the king for me since then.
Tranceport bores me, it sounds too square and fake. But listening to stuff like Magik 1 (mixed on actual turntables) is still a wonderful experience. |

Now that Tiesto is number one, it seems everyone is flaming him more and more. Oakey continues to get flack from everyone, although he was once a number one DJ. It just seems to me that ever since Tiesto started gaining more popularity, more and more people seem to lose faith in him. This is a trend that will be going on forever. Everyone expects these DJ's/prouducers to put out mint songs/remixes everytime out. They're human just like us. The one point I'm trying to make is that just because someone is popular, it doesn't mean you should dislike. or like them for that matter. Your opinion is yours and no one elses. Just my thoughts ATM.
Peace,

This is a pointless debate that will go on forever and no side is ever going to win.
Either you like Tiesto and Oakenfold or you don't.
Either you think they are sellouts or you don't.
Either you think change is bad or you don't.
It's all a matter of personal opinion. We might as well argue what is the better fruit, an apple or an orange. |

i've loved tiesto since "Live at innercity RAI" came out |
I completely agree! Certainly his style has changed over the years but I like the "new" tiesto as much as I like the "old". |

| it's funny... i got up today morning, and was thinking the same... tiesto being number one, even people that didn't here of him before, starts listening to him, and they like him, and it becomes bigger and bigger, and it's definetley sort of, who ever it's the first, has more chances to atract more new fans than the one that is on 3rd o 4rth position, well, that's what i think however, oakenfold was huge in his time, and brought awsome music to his sets.... |
