DJ Tiesto - Just Be

Not sure what kind of response this will get, but it's worth a shot.

I just got a copy of DJ Tiesto's promo CD - 'Just Be.' The CD is scheduled to be released June 1st.

While it's not Tiesto's greatest work, maybe not even in the top 50% of his work, I would still suggest checking this album out. Unlike many of his previous releases, this album comes unmixed. Because of this, several of the tracks stick out moreso than they would have on a normally mixed trance album. My favorites are "Love Comes Again," "Traffic," "Nyana," and of course "Adagio For Strings." While the album itself may not become wildly popular, expect to hear some use of these Tiesto mixes in other DJs' sets.

If anyone is interested in electronic music (specifically trance), pm me, and I can hook you up with some live sets or some CDs.

Isn't trance the music that keeps a loud driving bass beat the whole time?

Pretty much all electronic music makes use of a strong bass beat.

I tend to disagree.

But I'm just asking about trance. Isn't that the music that has that *bump* *bump* *bump* continual driving beat sort of thing?

I should just ask titan...

How can you disagree? House, Techno, and Trance make up about 99% of all electronic music these days, and they all make use of a strong bass line.

But I'm refering to the constant driving mindless trance beat. It may make up all of trance, but not all of techno.

Spin some Autchre, you'll be happy you did.

Now that I would have agreed with.

Well I'm sorry you are so bitter about the topic.

If you think I was talking about cheese artists such as ATB, DJ Sammy, or Darude, you would be mistaken.

I urge you to listen to the "In Search of Sunrise" series sometime, without your pre-dispositions. Perhaps you would realize that not all trance is mindless x eating club music.

While the techno/ trance isn't my favorite sort of music, I do know that 9 out of 10 robots enjoy making sweet sweet robot love to it.

Dj your thread has inspired me to make my first post. I was sent this promo cd myself becuase my brother is actually pretty tight with a guy named Arny Bink that I guess owns the record company that releases Tiestos stuff. Have you heard the Space Between remix that he did? Probably my favorite.

I have heard it. Not too shabby.

PS. Pretty impressive that your brother has that hookup. Do you get other unreleased material?

Dj, not really. He knows that i like tiestos stuff, so he made sure i got a copy of that new promo, but that's about it. He told me that next time tiesto comes to NYC, i might be able to hang out with 'em which would be cool. I guess he throws a good party. Empty promises though i'm guessin.

yeah... judging from the conversation here, and the mention of ATB or Trance -- I thought I'd pipe in and say that people are getting sick of the same old rock/hip-hop/r&b bullsh*t..... and there is just this big upsurge from a new style coming out of Europe -- it's pretty easy to find, just put 'euro club hits' into itunes or check this link: http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/M...Club+Hits+Vol+
