My Independent Research Entry is about one of my favorite and best DJ of all times, Tiesto. Born in Holland in 1969, when he was 35 he and a close friend founded Black Hole Recordings and started producing music. Later on he produced various hits like "Suburban Train", "Adagio for Strings" and many others. By 2002 he was declared the number one Dj on the "DJ Magazine". He made the Electronic/Trance Music what is now and on the live part he was filling stadiums and big arenas. In 2004 he was the first DJ to perform at the Olympics and was the first DJ to perform to 3.8 billions of people.
Tiesto is one of the most recognizable DJ around the world and still will be for a few more years. Not only by his style of producing music but how he made everyone dance and spread the Electronic Music around the world. Himself is a big innovation to the Electronic Music because; he made the Electronic Music go to where no one has ever got. Now days Tiesto is revolutionizing the way of producing his music and now he is using more Electronic sounds and left the Trance behind. Still he gives the Trance touch to his tracks but now he is producing what the people want to hear and he still is filling up his concerts.
Tiesto did a lot of innovations to the Electronic music and opened multiple doors to new DJ's and to new producers. One of his main reason and inspiration was that he wants to spread his music to everywhere and I'm more than sure that he accomplished it and not only myself know it but you can see it in the numbers and how to whenever he goes he will fill up the stadium or arena and people will go crazy. He made the Electronic music go more Dance and made it so that people can dance it in clubs.
I would like to say that Tijs Michiel Verwest "Tiesto" was a very big inspiration for me when I decided to study Recording Arts. Every time I watch one of his concerts it just makes me feel the music and get more pumped to produce and to work with it. As an industry professional when I listen to his music and sit down and analyze it so that later on I can get the sounds to sound like his. It opens my ears for some new sound ideas and for some motivation too.
I agree with Jose when it comes to DJ Tiesto. There is no one out there who brings the energy and show like DJ Tiesto. Another cool trait of DJ Tiesto is how he makes all of his sound by tweaking synthesizers. Electronic producers and DJs alike are very gifted in how smart they are with synthesizers. I love how DJ Tiesto creates his own unique sounds from hardly anything to amazing and powerful noise.
