Interviu cu… TIESTO!

Tiesto este, cu siguranta, unul dintre cei mai cunoscuti si iubiti DJi din lume. DJ Mag spune asta, miile de fani de la concerte striga asta, zecile de mii de ascultatori a show-ului sau radio, Club Life (unde au aparut si Deepside Deejays), o sustin si ei. Nu poti spune trance sau dance fara sa spui Tiesto. Nu poti spune Traffic, Love comes again sau Dance 4 life fara sa te treaca fiori si fara sa-ti aduci aminte de cel putin un show de-al lui care te-a marcat.
Succesul lui Tiesto se datoreaza pasiunii lui imense pentru muzica, a modului in care se dedica unei cariere care-l poarta aproape saptamanal dintr-o parte intr-alta a lumii si face toate astea cu zambetul pe buze, cu castile pe urechi si cu degetele pe sintetizator. Intre toate astea mai are timp sa scrie si pe Twitter si pe Facebook, facandu-i pe fani fericiti nu doar cu muzica lui, ci si cu implicarea lui reala. Asta face din Tiesto unul dintre cei mai iubiti DJi din lume, care smulge la fiecare show siruri nesfarsite de aplauze si care ne-a dat piesele ale caror versuri le cantam si in somn.
Eu am fost incredibil de norocoasa sa am ocazia sa-i adresez cateva intrebari, nu doar pentru mine, ci si pentru voi, asa ca va invit sa ne bucuram impreuna de raspunsurile lui.
Pana la urma, muzica lui Tiesto ne spune, simplu: Just be!

1. Your music is heading towards new directions. It’s become edgier, a bit more electronic. How did this happen and what’s the reason behind it?
It is my progression as an artist. My music reflects all the different musical influences that I have been listening to, which includes a lot of indie rock, electro, techno and house and I draw from all of these when making new music.

2. What are the fans’ reactions towards this new style?
My fans are always very supportive of what I do and they have been amazing, they seem to be really enjoying my music and that’s what is most important.

The best trance albums of 2010

So far, 2010 has been a great year for music and a wonderful year for trance album releases. When Armin, Tiesto, Markus and Gareth all line up to present their hard work, it can only be a spectacular moment! And so it was!

Although Tiesto ‘s Kaleidoscope came out in October 2009, the album didn’t really blossom until 2010, when one of the world’s most beloved DJ toured the world to promote it.
Here’s what Tiesto think is the basis of his success: ‘Because people care and they see that I care. I’m very honest in what I do. It’s not an act or a gimmick. It’s pure, it’s emotion.’ (Source) And yes, we felt it at The Mission Dance Weekend 2010, when he rocked our worlds with the tracks on his latest album: “Escape Me”, “Feel It in My Bones”, “Century” etc etc etc. citeste mai departe →
