    Why Ti?sto Doesn't Want You To Vote For Him in DJMAG.com Top 100

    Stolen from: http://www.rhythmism.com/forum/showthread.php?t=43915

    I have spent the last two weeks in the U.S.A. I had an epic time with four great shows. I spent a couple of days in Tahoe, went to Austin Texas, a festival in Chicago, the Global festival at the Palms hotel in Vegas where I also had some time off.

    Every night I went out with the promoter of the city I was in and most of them where bringing up the DJ Magazine top 100 voting. It's a big thing for most of the promoters and most of them will book DJ's that are high on this list.

    That made me think, because if that's the case the voting is important.
    Especially to breed new talent.

    There are so many new great young DJ's out there that I feel it's time to give them a chance. I appreciate all the love and support I get from all over the world but I won this award three times so if I would win it a fourth time, it wouldn't make a difference for my career.

    For the new talented DJ's around the world it could make a difference, so I would like to ask all the people who support me to vote for new talent.

    Don't vote for me, vote for the new breed! I just voted myself and my personal top 5 is:

    1.Eddie Halliwell
    2.Sander van Doorn
    3.Serge Devant
    4.Blake Jarrell
    5.Richard Durand

    Thanks again to everybody who came to my shows and who bought the new single 'dance4life'!

    Love,
    Tiësto

          Maybe he should attend non trance events and learn more about music. Don't get me wrong i like trance but give me a break. He says

              i thought i read somewhere that someone thought he was doing this to preempt a huge drop in his ranking.

                  no matter what you think of him or trance - advocating for 'the newbreeed' of DJ's is a pretty good concept, whether its the newbreed of techno DJ's or tech-house DJs. IMO.

                      Dropping one person from the list (being Tiesto) isn't going to invoke an array of "newbreed" DJs. It's merely a sign of arrogance. He's totally lost the plot.

                      The only way his theory would slightly work is if the entire top 5 or top 10 was in backlash against DJMag top 100. Which, would therefore become useless because promoters and readers wouldn't consider it valid. So infact, it wouldn't work at all.

                      Come how it isn't a problem for DJs like Sasha (just to name one) to find new talent? (Zabiela for example) and make them rise to stardom. He is an arrogant fool, and if he used his resources correctly could bring up fresh DJs to become successful, for DJs he believes deserves it.

                      Tiesto.... what a joke.

                              If he's so interested in developing new talent
                              why doesn't do what at least jokenfold did
                              and bring along people like Catteneo to open up for him
                              There's one way to breed new talent
                              he obviously has the ears of the mostly
                              go with the moment promoters that pay
                              for him to play.

                              So white-middle class Americans have been told by their Television sets to be fearful of:

                              1. Mexicans/Latinos from the South bringing drugs and killings n' shit.
                              2. African Americans cause mos def they are raging a race war and want to occupy America like how the plebs occupied Wall St.
                              3. Iranians/Afghans/Any one of middle eastern origin to be quite frank, cause you know Islam...
                              4. North Koreans/Chinese cause you know everything...

                              Am I close here?

                                      Not trying to bag out Tiesto here at all, but the last time I looked at the Top 100 DJ poll you vote for who you think the best DJs are out there in electronic music. Not for up and coming DJs you want to give a leg up to.

                                      As a result, the likes of Digweed, Lisle, Fortier and Cusick receieved my votes.

                                              gotta be fake. Being in the top 5 means more money and huge gigs. He is all about $$$$$. I hardly could see him letting someone else jump in.

                                                      just like michelle wie's promoters tell her what to do (different topic in sports), so do his. its marketing. he can't possibly get this out to everyone that votes... not nearly everyone. he will get #1 again, i assure you.
