| DJ Tiesto - Kaleidoscope
Album is leaked except you hear a few subliminal messages in it haha.. love this new sound from him. Apparently this album is based on some indi rock bands he had been listening to from around the world. Some which are Canadian artists. Anyway after a good listen the second time around I fell in love with these tracks.
Knock You Out
Century
Escape Me
Who Wants To Be Alone
Anywayy just my .02

This album is HORRIBLE.
I used to be a Tiesto fan, but wow, the music he produces now is just garbage.
It's way too commercial, so people who don't even like trance will listen to it and like it.
The pop and electro influences are too strong; even though the base genre is trance, i still don't consider it "trance music".
I hope someday he goes back to his roots and produces music with his oldschool sound.
With all this being said, I'm still going to see him in November @ PNE, coz i know he will rip it up, he is AMAZING live. With a 4 hour set, he's sure to drop some classics.
Elements of Life @ GM Place was one of the best events EVER!

there aren't many big trance artists that have remained true to the genre. for me, the only exception has been ferry corsten.

You will notice that all the big DJ/Producers's (not just trance DJ/Producer's) now collaborate with other artist (some not so mainstream) on their new tracks. Why? To get a larger fan base, although this pisses off the fans that have been following that producer from the early years of their career. You see the lesser known DJ/Producer's sticking to the roots more than the well known ones.

hmm I agree the sound to this album is not like his old stuff. But i figured all great artists evolve and try new sounds. Maybe to get new fans or maybe to keep ppl on their feet.. or maybe just to make more money (become mainstream).. I guess this is open to argument.

I would say Markus Schulz has stayed pretty true to his original sound, Toronto 09 was a great album.....
With everything else, electronic and trance are mixing into the mainstream now you can see it with all the new beats that hip/hop is using. Tiesto's just trying to get a piece of that pie now, if you can expose yourself to a wider audience then why not.

the last track is sooo fucking chill, surrounded by light, i wish it was a 10minute track instead!
fresh fruit is also a sweet track... gotta listen to more of it, so far those are the only two that really really stood out as different, or evoking the most emotion, or whatever you want to call it.

WOW.... the song with Nelly Furtado is an absolute atrocity. Her voice is so painful on an EDM track.
This album definitely has some interesting tracks, but compared even to his previous production album I think it's fairly rubbish.
Listening to some of Tiesto's latest ClubLife podcasts makes me want to stab my eyes out. The latest one starts with two remixes: first Metric, then Kings of Leon. Two episodes ago it was Franz Ferdinand and Empire of the Sun (although that track is sick).
Anyway, I am totally cool with the changing sounds of EDM and I really like a lot of these new vocal tracks... but come on, is it still really trance music if you just add a fast bass line to an indy rock track?

IMHO, if you've been listening to the music for a while, you'd probably say that Tiesto is a huge reason why the genre has become more popular... but I don't know if he's really the "king".
Obviously it's all subjective, but Tiesto is not necessarily the unanimous "King" imho.

Now everyone is favoring Armin because he's consistent with his music, tiesto not so much. Tiesto was top for a LONG time, but times changed and so did his style.

the king of what? trance?
the king of EDM should be someone who can produce any kind of EDM.
The closest thing to that right now is Ferry Corsten.
if you can only produce one kind of specific sound, that is defined by a larger genre, what makes him king of a WHOLE genre? This album is his first album where he's really expanded into Electro and progressive sounds, and of course people aren't going to like it, most of his fans are trance heads.
so i've listened to this shit like 10 billion times, and of course I usually listen to the whole album a few times before I even look at the track names, or who's featured. I think people get really biased when they don't like a particular artist or whatever. I rate them in this order.
1. "Kaleidoscope" (featuring Jónsi)
2. "Surrounded By Light"
3. "Here On Earth" (featuring Cary Brothers) & "Always Near" (They're perfectly linked together, I consider them one track)
4. "I Will Be Here" (with Sneaky Sound System)
5. "Fresh Fruit"
6. "I Am Strong" (featuring Priscilla Ahn)
7. "Escape Me" (featuring CC Sheffield)
8. "Louder Than Boom"
9. "You Are My Diamond" (featuring Kianna)
10. "Knock You Out" (featuring Emily Haines)
11. "Century" (featuring Calvin Harris)
12. "Feel It In My Bones" (featuring Tegan & Sara)
13. "It's Not The Things You Say" (featuring Kele Okereke)
14. "LA Ride"
15. "Bend It Like You Don't Care"
16. "Who Wants To Be Alone" (featuring Nelly Furtado)
on wiki it says itunes version of the album has these two extra tracks..
iTunes Bonus Tracks:
18. "Organised Chaos"
19. "Bad Behavior" (featuring Dizzee Rascal)
... so... who has em? HAH! (320kbps)
