Biografie
Tiësto is a name that no longer needs an introduction. He is synonymous with the best of electronic music, and continues to inspire a generation of up-and-coming young artists.
In addition to two Grammy nominations and a Grammy win in 2015, Tiësto has been named the #1 DJ by Rolling Stone, voted "The Greatest DJ of All Time" by Mixmag, ranked the #1 DJ in the world three times by DJ Mag, and was recently awarded the Edison Pop Oeuvre Lifetime Achievement Award (an honor he shares with David Bowie, Quincy Jones and U2 among others).
After conquering the house and trance worlds, the superstar producer led the charge in helping electronic music crossover into the mainstream with his last album, A Town Called Paradise in 2014. His single "Red Lights" is now certified gold in the US, Sweden and Canada, while "Wasted" with Matthew Koma recently went platinum in the US and is his highest-charting release to date. Clearly a taste of what was to come, Tiësto has recently dropped new tunes with the The Chainsmokers, Martin Garrix, and pop sensation Natalie La Rose.
Collaborations are nothing new for Tiësto, who believes in passing along his success by working with well-known names like Martin Garrix and Oliver Heldens, to name a few. For years now, he has helped up-and-coming acts in the electronic world find their way with his record label, Musical Freedom. In 2016, he launched his second label, AFTR:HRS, to showcase the deeper side of house music that he personally enjoys in his moments of downtime. Aside from his labels, he also took part in 7Up's DJing competition "Your Shot," a competition for aspiring DJ's to learn the craft and perform alongside Tiësto in Las Vegas.
At this point in his career, Tiësto has toured the world countless times, performing for millions at Ultra, Coachella, Tomorrowland, TomorrowWorld and Electric Daisy Carnival, in addition to the innumerable clubs that he headlines. He's one of the few DJs in the world to hold a residency in Las Vegas, where he plays at Hakkasan and Wet Republic.
In spite of his hectic tour schedule, residency, and focus on creating new music, Tiësto hasn't forgotten his roots. As a champion of the DJ mix for decades, his CLUBLIFE compilations have become a staple in the dance world as has his Sirius XM channel of the same name. He plans to release a new album CLUBLIFE VOL. 5: China in October 2017. In addition, his weekly CLUBLIFE radio show is broadcast on 353 stations in 77 countries and has over 41.7 million listeners. In October 2016, Tiësto celebrated the landmark 500th episode with his sold-out CLUBLIFE 500 show in Amsterdam.
Tiësto also remains an expert remixer to the biggest names in music, reworking smash hits for the likes of Beyoncé, Coldplay, Kanye West, Sam Smith, Ellie Goulding, David Guetta, Major Lazer, Calvin Harris, and many more. In 2015, he won his first Grammy Award for his massively popular remix of John Legend's "All Of Me."
Tiësto has successfully transitioned his influence and savvy to industries beyond music, acting as an advisor to tech startups like Splice, Dubset and Doppler and signing on as an early partner with YouTube Live. Through current collaborations with T-Mobile and Budweiser and soon-to-be-revealed efforts in the fashion space, the DJ is bringing dance music culture to more people than ever before.
Throughout the past two decades, Tiësto has remained not only one of the world's most prolific and enduring artists, but one of music's top innovators. In spite of his accomplishments, Tiësto does not see his work as being done. "DJing is my life," the man isn't afraid to admit. But more than that, "It's a lifestyle."

Uitspraak van Govert Kreuk op donderdag 13 maart 2008 om 00:04:Zegt het 15 jarige kleutertje! Liever angerfist zeker??
Zegt partyflock's #1 faggot...
Ten eerste is zijn muziek bar slecht.
Ten tweede loopt ie af en toe van het podium weg en dan loopt de muziek gewoon door...
Tiestö is gewoon fake, stop een CD'tje erin, zet een draaitafel neer zonder hem aan te sluiten en gaat een beetje aan die knoppen draaien.
En ik denk dat jij met anderen mensen hun mening moet leren omgaan, want je heb op iedereen wat aan te merken hier!
Sjonge jonge... hij had gewoon hardcore moeten blijven draaien vroeger, BAM GODVER !!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FlbUU1J90Dcb EAT THIS !!!
Wordt eens tijd dat hij weer in Nederland komt draaien!
Uitspraak van ZaanTerror op dinsdag 9 augustus 2011 om 11:59:Ten eerste is zijn muziek bar slecht.
jaren aan de top en dan zou zijn muziek slecht zijn , dat is natuurlijk onzin en het is zeker geen fake ik heb hem een hele nacht zien draaien en now way dat hij wegliep , denk maar niet dat veel andere artiesten dat na doen , een hele nacht draaien zonder meerdere keren de zelfde nummers te horen
Uitspraak van TiestoLover op vrijdag 24 juni 2011 om 23:43:enuuuhhh.... wil je verkering met me ?
ja hoor
Uitspraak van TiestoLover op zaterdag 25 juni 2011 om 00:05:uuhhhhh....ik bedoelde eigenlijk trouwen...
beetje snel maar sta er wel voor open
Hij was jaren een grote held, hij maakte goede muziek en had goeie sets (innercity, trance energy) Totdat hij de kant op ging van David Guetta, want nu wil hij Amerika gaan veroveren. En dit door je muziekstijl te verkloten. Voor geld kiezen en percee de aller grootste/beste (first dj ever, biggest show ever from a dj) willen zijn en niet meer de passie hebben voor zijn echte muziek.
Dit vind ik nou zo jammer, voor de rest was het een held. Wat hij zegt is waar: 'Ik ben ook veel fans kwijt geraakt'

hij IS,hij MAAKT,hij heeft... lijkt in de verste verte niet op guetta...
Uitspraak van party-guru op dinsdag 15 november 2011 om 16:25:hij IS,hij MAAKT,hij heeft... lijkt in de verste verte niet op guetta...
Met zijn samenwerking met rappers en andere Amerikaanse zanger/zangeressen. Dit was iets wat Guetta al veel eerder deed. Bovendien, Weet zeker dat Guetta nu de bekendste dj is in de US. Die kant gaat tiesto nou ook op want hij wil beroemdheid in Amerika, dat valt niet te ontkennen. Een heel groot punt om te zeggen dat Tiesto de kant van David Guetta op gaat om daar nog verder in te komen
Uitspraak van verwijderd op dinsdag 15 november 2011 om 15:37:'Ik ben ook veel fans kwijt geraakt'
dat heb je mis, hij is veel Nederlandse fans kwijtgeraakt.
maar hij heeft er elders juist meer bijgekregen
en dat is nu ook zo, sommige vonden hem toen niks en juist deze nieuwe stijl erg fijn
hij is wel zn trancefans kwijt, dat zeker
Tis bijnaaaaa zover 16 November 2012!!! Knalleeeeeeeeeeeeeeennnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
