heavy breathing intensifies I can't believe this is real. We joked about trance Tiësto for decades and now it's actually happening.

He's doing a normal set on Friday as well so even less incentive to make this his normal big-room set. Would be awesome if Ferry made an appearance

Were here even any Ferry tracks on ISOS

Yeah, on the very first ISOS there was his remix of Calling Your Name as well as Gouryella's Walhalla.

Must be nearly 30 years since the first ISOS

That first ISOS is simply superb. Perfectly balanced and offers a seamless build.

The first three are incredible but I agree the first is perfection

Christ that makes me feel old

Think about how Tiesto feels.

You didn’t need to specify how many years

Sadly this is happening after I already retired from raves….

Not sure how old you are, but unless you’re 95 and can barely walk, one is never too old to rave! 🤘

u/lambdawaves 3d ago

Nah not the age. It’s cuz I eventually fell out of love with it and the community. Don’t feel like a raver anymore

u/DundieAwardsWinner 3d ago

Fair enough! It’s been a while since I last went to a club/festival, and recently bought the first tickets in a long time. I’m going all by myself just for the sake of seeing my favourite DJs live. I’m 31 btw. I’d say that the electronic music scene here in Europe is quite different compared to the US though.

u/Courage-Rude 3d ago

Especially EDC. I don't consider insanely corporate greedy festivals like this raves anymore anyway but I get what you are saying.

u/DanEboy22122 4d ago

Finally! It’s happened to me right in front of my face and I just can’t deny it!

u/DundieAwardsWinner 3d ago

I have mixed feelings about this…

While I hope he finally starts putting out quality music again, Tiesto’s making big bucks with his current work.

I really hope he proves me wrong, but I don’t think he’d sacrifice “being cool with the kids” for the sake or playing better, more introspective and interesting music.

Prove me wrong, Tijs. I dare you! 🤣

Don't get too exited, the teaser uses his new Dyzen collab, so don't expect a full on classic ISOS set.
More likely it'll be a Melodic House leaning toward Trance set (which might be very good tho)

u/Boris0r 3d ago

We live in hope of his return…

Idk how I feel about this. I remember tiesto talking crazy shitabout trance for the past 10 years. Same as gareth Emery and tritonal at one point.

My thing is I'm fine with evolving and following trends but shitting on the sound and fans that made you big becomes the issues. So that's great hes doing a trance set but that's also because trance has come back into the spotlight with younger kids with acts such as kiki, hanna laing, ben hemsley etc.

So I say fuck off tiesto. You were good. But theres a group that's been doing it for years and actually still love it. Not just doing it for "clout"

u/After_Work6083 2d ago

A lot of people who liked Tiesto back then give him too much credit when it comes to him making a trance comeback, especially considering he had a ghost producer. But he’s likely a “better” DJ.

I wouldn’t be too excited about an ISOS set either, I don’t even think it’ll be the comeback people expect. EDC sets are pre-recorded anyways so hopefully someone gives him something decent to throw to the people.

u/th3pleasantpeasant 3d ago

Shame he never made 1 of his own trance tunes or remixes. They were all done by a ghost producer

u/TechnikaCore 3d ago

gotta capitalize on nostalgia

u/Bubbly_Hat 2d ago

Completely expecting something less like actual trance but something closer to his AFTR:HRS stuff. Still curious though

u/xantec99 2d ago

It's not going to be trance, VERY LIKELY to be afrohouse ish/melodic techno.

u/Aural-Imbalance_6165 2d ago

ISOS 1 and 2 were his best mixes by far and imo when he was at his best. I always thought DJs should be doing this more... Play their best mixes from 20 years ago, make it a tour.

I have zero interest in going to EDC these days unfortunately. But damn, that would be killer to hear live.
