Post CP NEWS: Tiesto: "Don't Vote For Me."

tiesto body.jpg



How do you know it's autumn? As hardcore clubbers return from Ibiza, shaking off their hangovers, it's finally time for voting in the new DJ Mag poll. (Click here to vote.)



So, as you probably know, PVD reached the top spot last year. And as you probably also know, before that, Tiesto had a Lance Armstrong-esque (sans steroids) three-year run as the #1 spot.



And who does Tiesto say you should vote for?



Well, this is where it gets interesting. It turns out… not him.



This message from Tiesto himself, on his site, written half an hour after Global Gathering in Vegas. Which, frankly, is amazing. And weird. Not the content, but the fact that he wrote this HALF AN HOUR after his set in Vegas. I was at that set. It finished at 5:13am. (More on Vegas later.) At 5:13 am, the last thing on my mind was a nice, friendly, peace-loving message to the rest of the global dance community. But that's why Tiesto's Tiesto, and I'm, well, not.

Hi Everybody,



I just finished my gig in Las Vegas half an hour ago. I had an epic weekend with four great shows. I spent a couple of days in Tahoe, went to Austin Texas, a festival in Chicago and the Global festival at the Palms hotel in Vegas.



Every night I went out with the promoter of the city I was in and most of them where bringing up the DJ Magazine top 100 voting. It's a big thing for most of the promoters and most of them will book DJ's that are high on this list.



That made me think, because if that's the case the voting is important. Especially to breed new talent. There are so many new great young DJ's out there that I feel it's time to give them a chance. I appreciate all the love and support I get from all over the world but I won this award three times so if I would win it a fourth time, it wouldn't make a difference for my career.



For the new talented DJ's around the world it could make a difference, so I would like to ask all the people who support me to vote for new talent.



Don't vote for me, vote for the new breed!



I just voted myself and my personal top 5 is:



1.Eddie halliwell

2.Sander van doorn

3.Serge Devant

4.Blake jarrell

5.Richard Durant



Thanks again to everybody who came to my shows and who bought the new single 'dance4life'!



Love,



Tiësto
