    Venus is such a wanna be epic trance tune.....no originality

    Ten.....blah

    As for dj'ing, i've heard him many times..and he played all the same tracks in a similar pattern..and the mixing wasn't all that....

    i just think there are so many dj's ahead of him

    but to each is own

    Your right and wrong.

    Up until recently even tiesto himself said that he needed to focus more on his production/ studio work. Over the last couple of months his remix of Cor's song Venus has been included in most of the big dj's sets. His new song Nynna = deep epic crisp sound that his earlier work had in 2000.

    Lets how this is of sign of good things to come for Tji 's.

    He is going to rip it at roxy !

Well yesterday I finally got around to downloading his Los Angeles cd and this cd blows his amsterdam one away. Track after track theres not one bad song in there. Cant wait till May 16th

    Tiesto was stellar in miami for ultra. His Los Angeles Cd has great tracks but the mixing really is sub par. Over the past year he has been trying to mix trance with techno and until recently I thought he would fail. At ultra when he took me from Midway amazon in Igor Bommerang i know i was wrong ;)

    Jan Johnston

    (Live Performance)

    Perfecto Records - UWM Group - Los Angeles, CA

    She's worked with BT, Chicane, and Oakenfold. Had tracks featured in movies like American Pie and Hackers 2. Yet, strange though it may sound, Jan's current story kicks off a few years ago in a bargain bin in Manchester.

    January 97: BT (Brian Transeau) is over from the US doing some studio work and is busy rifling through the city's Bluezone second hand record shop. Picking up a vinyl copy of "Calling your Name" (later used on American Pie), and impressed by the face on the sleeve, he promptly buys it (for 50p no less!)

    Everyone loved it. Offers flooded in, and, as well as immediately flying over to LA to work on new material, Jan was soon lending her distinctive vocals to a plethora of other artists: Chicane on "Love Will Come", "Take Me By the Hand", by Victor Imbres' Submerge project and Freefall's number one club hit "Skydive". On top of this,BT and Jan did a sell-out 30-date tour of the States from San Francisco to Florida. Which is how she captured the eagle eyes - and ears - of a certain well-known DJ:

    "Paul (Oakenfold) pulled me aside one night after the show and whispered in my ear, "I want to sign you." I was initially a bit cautious because I'm more singer-songwriter than dance diva, but he assured me I'd have free reign. And I obviously had a lot of respect for his reputation in the industry." Jan signed to Perfecto in Summer 99. Relocating to LA to record with US producer Jamie Myerson, they worked on and recorded Jan's debut album in the first six months of last year.

    A subtle marriage of Jan's open lyrics and Jamie's quietly understated production, the forthcoming album "Emerging" is testament to the strength of traditional songwriting that can and still exists within a dance sensibility: "I can't bear the idea of not communicating something to my audience. I love combining dance influences beats and breaks here and there with everything I've experienced over the years in relationships and life generally. I want to pull people's emotions, make them feel what I feel. If they do, then I've succeeded."

    Tracks range from the painful experience of a relationship breakdown in the epic "No Excuses" through to the nascent sense of finding inner peace in title track "Emerging"; along the way Jan also covers the Carpenters' classic "Superstar" ("purely to put myself up against a great artist!") and ends with the pensive prayer to a higher being, "God's Plan." First single "Flesh", released April 9, is, as its title suggests, a paean to somewhat more biblical pleasures, in the less holy sense of the word!

    Born and bred in the gray swathes of Salford, Jan was intent on doing the right thing by her parents and getting a job in the local bank, despite a natural vocal ability. Yet instincts can only be suppressed for so long, and soon she'd formed a duo called JJ, flirting with chart success after the band was signed to Sony. Following their subsequent departure from the label, Jan was signed as a solo artist to A&M, where she released a handful of singles, including the aforementioned "Calling Your Name", as well as a critically- acclaimed album "Naked But for the Lilies." Which is where BT comes in, which brings us up to the present. Heck, she even featured on his latest club smash "Mercury and Solace".

    # 1. Jan on life: "I think I'm a genuine gypsy. Most people couldn't bear to stand on quicksand. I seem to relish getting up to my chin and then crawling out again. I've been floating for years now, and even sold my house to pursue this dream. I know it will happen. You have to fight in life."

    # 2. Jan on her music: "It's like Joni Mitchell and George Michael rubbing up against 4 Hero and Ricky Lee Jones." You can't say fairer than that. More info on Jan can be found at www.JanJohnston.com

    George Acosta

    Ultra Records - UWM Group - Miami, FL

    Trance, 2002. The cynics who said the sound of '98 would be gone faster than you could say "speed garage" were wrong. It's still here. Why? Because of DJs like George Acosta, trance's Miami-based boy from the hood proves every time he puts a needle on a record that just what exactly "trance" is these days has changed, as it should. "I listen to a lot of DJs and look up to a lot of them that have been doing this longer than me," he says. In Acosta's hands, trance has grown, learned from the best, and moved forward to find its next level. Maybe it isn't in the same hands-in-the-air anthems or hard, dark floor burners anymore. But it's that same feeling that Acosta gives his crowd every time he plays, even if George takes a little different route to get to that feeling. But he gets there, alright, and his crowds love him for it.

    He knows his crowds so well because he's as big a fan as they are of the music. Coming up playing warehouse parties in his native Miami, having a bonafide early '90s club hit (remember Planet Soul?) and owning his own record store (Miami's Grooveman Music) have always put George a little closer to the dancefloor than most jocks. Maybe because, among the other kingpins of the trance scene--the Tauchers, Tallas and Oakenfolds--Acosta has discovered the music like the rest of America, as a fan first, then as a DJ.

    It was during his three-year-old residency at Miami's Shadow Lounge that Acosta translated the European trance atmosphere to his native South Beach. He educated Miami's dance crowd to the emotional roller coaster of true.

    Update: Nyc Date TBA but I have been told by Vic himself that its happening. :eyespop: :crazy:

  17. WARNING!!! Do NOT go to EXIT tonight.

    in New York / New Jersey

    Posted

    I want to make two points clear.

    1) I dont hate asains but this weekend I got in a fight with 12 at exit. Kid pushed me then kicked the back of my leg FOR NO REASON BESIDES ME BEING IN HIS WAY. When I go to hit him 12 of his buddys come at me at the same time!. FOB's are the problem not Asains.

    2) This whole thread is a perfect example of why this board is wack. The mod's should of deleted this racist thread a while ago!

    good job guys :D

  18. SCOT PROJECT / MARCO V. - FRIDAY APRIL 4TH - MIX @ EXIT

    in New York / New Jersey

    Posted

    MArco is a way better dj technically then Scot project. When I saw Scot at exit and the tunnel his sets were just hard and banging they didn’t progress. His newer sets are allot better and diverse. Maro needs at least three hours to really get things kicking. His set at Opium (wmc) Really sucked due to the 45 min time frame he had and shitty sound system. On the other hand in dc (his first us appearance) he killed us for 3.5 hours. That set was driving all the way from start to finish.

    Mixmoderator ~ Please post the set times of Marco V & Scot Project

  20. Exit 3/28 - Reviews anyone?

    in New York / New Jersey

    another thing i did not like were all those lights so brightly turned on , on the second floor.........the only place that was pumping was the red room the music was crazy in there and the room was packed.

    for those of you who just started going to exit, last night was probably a very good night, but for those of you like myself who use to go like 2-3 years ago i think you would agree with me when i say exit has become very "commercial".

    very little substance left in there

    THE ANNIVERSARY PARTY IS JUST TWO WEEKS AWAY.....!!!!

    I CANT WAIT, HOW ABOUT YOU??

    What he said.

  22. dancevalley reviews?

    in Winter Music Conference Miami

    Ranking in order of quality of performance

    1. Don Diablo

    2. Cor Fijneman

    3. Misja Hesloot

    4. Dj Astrid

    5. Johan Gielen

    6. ?

    Marco V is not even ranked. It wasn't just the sound system or that he spun for 45 minutes, his set was horrible. The only quality song that I heard was ../ *mp3 song* . Clocks is old and the push songs he played are played out. I know that it wasn't all his fault. The club was amazing looking (the key word is looking) The sound was horrid due to the main floor having no walls and being outside. The best place to be in the club was the dancefloor/lounge upstairs. Don and cor were awsome! Ive really never seen a guy with as much energy as Diablo behind the decks. When acceleration peaked he threw his water bottle's in the air and sprayed all of us with it :). Misja wouldn't play Baracheta for me :mad: !
