why didnt tiesto ever spin @ twilo


Recommended Posts

Ladies and Gents,

That was someone else who compared Tiesto to Devito. I was just tossing some flack to Mr. Innom about his knowledge of music, or lack of... whatever.

But enough of that... it's all love as far as I am concerned. Do keep in mind that Americans are somewhat in the dark on the electronic music front. You just don't get the exposure here as you do elsewhere... that is a shame.

Commercial, underground, whatever, if Tiesto does it for you... awesome, but he has yet to produce such special nights as Erick Morillo's birthday @ Discoteque, Danny @ Twilo, etc. That is just my opnion.

As for slinging insults at my friend. I'll gladly send you some of his work if you'd like and if you don't, then feel free to trash it, but don't knock it till you hear it.

As for the 5 people he played for @ 1015 in SF, or the 5 @ Drais in Vegas, or the 5 @ Avalon in Boston, or the 5 @ DC-10 in Ibiza or the 5 on the Terrace, or the 5 people NYE @ GAS, Sydney. It looked like they were having a good time...? Digweed played to those same 5 people on New Years as well.

People like this i LOVE.....they go to Factory a few times and maybe hit up Twilo in the last year....and CLAIM to know their shit and talk down to other people because they think they are above everyone, since they attended a few parties in the POST NYC club days...

.....Let me tell you soemthing my friend....you may hate Tiesto and claim he is "commercial" but your the same type of person that hates anything the massess end up following....your the same person who in 1999 said Tiesto was an up and coming star...but the minute you hear him on KTU he's commercial?....

So in your words commercial means crap?...thats absurd....and plain ignorant and it ONLY shows how your only intentions in this wonderful thing we call music is to like what others do not....

PVD was far more "commercial" then Tiesto in his prime days, as was Sasha & Digweed....Carl Cox isn't as commercial yet because he spins techno which is hard to push to the mainstream...but i assure you in time him and his genre will head down the devastating path of commercialism....

I mean really...when you actually think about it...it is the Dutch and Germans who have, in your words, "commercialized" this music...with there huge stadium parties and festivals, such as Innercity, Sensation, Mysteryland, Love Parade, Dutch Dimensions, Impulz and countless other parties..these events make the music more commercial then any American event...yet they are filled year in and year out with the most amazing and mind blowing talent in the electro music industry...everyone from Jeff Mills to Tiesto to Sander....

Now i can list dozens of DJs who played or play at those "commercial" parties and i am sure you will say they are all crap DJs...and that just reassures your ignorance to the scene...as i am sure you are a bridge and tunnel wannabe club kid who heard about clubbing after your town's local youth detective came and bombarded you with the horrible affects of exctasy...so you and your little B&T pals decided in your late senior years to try a club in the BIG APPLE and ventured to Twilo in its closing i mean POOR years...and NOW you come on boards and talk your nonsense to other people on how YOUR music preference is far better then everyone elses and how you went to a few parties at Twilo...does that make you some sort of God?

Allow be the one to tell you...it does not..all you are doing is demonstrating time in and time out your uneducated knowledge of trance, acid, d&b and all forms of electro.....commercial means NOTHING....

And now your probally wondering who i am...well i assure you i was clubbing far before you....i remember the days before kids liek yourself ventured into clubs with your half witted crap...never talk about NYC club life liek your the man unless you partied with M. Alig.

If you do not remember the days of NASA parties then shut your mouth because those parties blew away any night at Twilo....thats a fact....and never call yourself a club kid...you have no clue as to the definition of a true club kid...that was before your days...

To the people who enjoy Tiesto...keep going....kids liek this guy will end up going back and listening to Green Day, like they were when i was Shelter and the orginal Fatcory when it was at Twilo....they know nothing.....

Well maybe i misjudged his looks....but i definatley did not misjudge is intelligence in the music....

How can you say something is crap because it is commercial...thats absurd.....granted the majority is crap..but there are amazing tunes that went popular....

So Rob say your favorite tune ever started to be played 20 times a day on KTU and sold 4 millions single CDs in a week...and become, in your definition, commercial?...would you say your favorite tune is crap at that point and stop listening to it because the "masses" like it also?

Since u seem to think anything the "masses" like is crap...then i am assuming you would rather drive a Pinto then a BMW 7 series...you know since the "masses" would all choose the 7 series over the Pinto...u wouldnt want to be liek them....your a joke...

Funny, you say Tiesto is crap...hhhhhmmmm lets see....hhhhmmmm...HE ONLY SOLD OUT GELREDOME STADIUM a few weeks back in Arnhem, Holland...25,000 people for one DJ...he is the ONLY DJ ever to do this....OH WAIT...your probally goign to say of course he sold out the place because he is commercial.....SO NOW i ask you...i a DJ with thousands of fans crap and commercial because he has too many fans?....i guarnatee you Carl Cox has thousands of fans...so he must be crap also....as does Jeff Mills....and PVD.....DT....Sander....Ferry...AVB.....MarcoV.....G&D.....GEEEEEE i guess they are all crap since you know they have too many fans....the masses like them so they are shit....

Thank u for fixing your attitude. When you first posted on this thread, you came off as a know it all, "i'm holier than you" prick.

Mission accomplished. I shall move on. Except for one thing, you have no friggin' idea who u are talking to. I've been listening to electronic music since the early days of friggin disco. So please don't say I dont know music. You have no idea.

THis is exactly what I am talking about. There are so many ppl. out there who love Tiesto who have been listening to EDM for 7 or 10 years. I know a few of them, and they would blow most ppl. away with their knowledge of all genres. Dude this is a fantastic post you should save it and post it elsewhere when this same ASS old played-out stupid topic comes up again. :golf clap:

thanks hun ;)

the two thoughts in my last post were not meant to have any sort of logical connection, ie the first statement being drawn from the second.. which is exactly why i made it first so as to break up the inevitable erroeneous conclusion that would be drawn from reading them sequentially in the reverse..

the fact that i thought they were crap was not b/c they are commercial.. not by any means.. i can think of many tracks that became commercial which are quality productions.. i just happen to think the tracks that were isolated in that post were cheesy, unoriginal tracks which basically sound like everything else he produces..

and(a point unrelated to the former) they are very commercial... as bigpoppa put it, which i'd have to agree w/, tiesto is like the britney spears/boy band version of electronica..

i don't give a fuck if you were at paradise garage.. does not validate your point in any way that tiesto is not commercial or unoriginal in his productions...

I am not too sure you are correct? That would have to have meant that while the Sound Factory Bar was open, Sound Factory was open as well...? Can someone else confirm this?

Bindra was the GM from SFB and then those guys went it on the Twilo venture and Bindra then ran the entire show over there.

My days at SFB were long ago... but I think you are wrong... dunno, maybe I am?

DJINNOM... settled, under the rug, now maybe we can find something agree on.

Tiesto is commerical he has videos on MTV all the time.. in the UK, no bling, bitches, bangers, on MTV Europe, well, some but not nearly as many as is here. Deep Dish remix N'SYNC, commerical, appearing in Apple Ads, commerical, Tiesto remixing Sarah Mac(something), commerical. It's commerical, done deal! THAT DOESN"T MAKE IT BAD!!

Remember:

"Underground, we live like roaches, we ain't never gonna die!!"

Underground are the one-offs in lofts, warehouses, with great DJ's you never heard of. Back when Lawler used to throw his Tunnel parties under the freeway, THAT'S UNDERGROUND.
