Max Kane Posted August 14, 2007 Report Share Posted August 14, 2007 Every other board has a thread for it so thought I'd join in... This is an extract from the email the Tiesto mailing list sent out :mrgreen: ""Hello everybody, As you all know from the announcement two weeks ago, my new mixcompilation In Search Of Sunrise 6 will soon be released. I am very proud to present the CD to you all. I went to Ibiza last June for inspiration after two years of absence and I have to say that the island is still very magical to me. There are so many beautiful, secret spots to discover and the parties at the clubs are still crazy and energetic. So to make sure that I would capture the love and dedication I feel for the island, I just had to go back for the proper inspiration. It’s with modesty that I can tell you that now I know for sure that 'ISOS 6' earned it to be called 'Ibiza'! I mixed the album a couple of weeks ago in the old-fashioned way, which means that I didn’t use any programs or computerized gadgets for it. I worked with CD-players for the mix. Most of the tracks are so exclusive that, if I’d still be mixing with records, I wouldn’t have been able to get those productions on vinyl! Let me take you through the tracks; ISOS 6 - CD 01 01. Es Vedrá - Hacienda This is a real Balearic intro to put you in the Ibiza mood. 02. Glenn Morrison – Contact I played this track at the Gelredome during my Tiësto in concert gig and people loved it. I wanted to put this one on this CD as a great memory of that night. 3. Andy Duguid featuring Leah - Don’t Belong A new talent from England from who we will hear a lot more in the future. 4. Solaris Heights – Vice (Sydenham Dub) Very warm and soulful track that fits very well on the album. 5. Global Experience – Madras Great producer from Germany who delivers the ultimate Ibiza feeling with this track. 6. Leonid Rudenko - Summerfish (Scandall Sunset On Ibiza Mix) The title says it all. Such a warm but still energetic track; it makes me happy when I listen to this one. 7. Clear View featuring Jessica - Tell Me Nice, mysterious house track with sexy vocals. 8. The Veil Kings - Searching For Truth A beautiful, happy Balearic guitar track. 9. Ohmna - The Sun’ll Shine (Sunrise Mix) Amazing track I received of one of the house godfathers Johan Groenewegen. This DJ/producer gives me only a couple of tracks a year but they are always special and he delivers high quality. 10. Moonbeam - See The Difference Inside (Inside Mix) Very original vocals and production from Russia. 11. Allure featuring Julie Thompson - Somewhere Inside Of Me A track we did with Julie Thompson. She does a live performance of the song in our Elements Of Life tour around the globe and it’s going down very well! 12. Taxigirl - High Glow A sparkling track with a beautiful vocal. 13. Reeves featuring Alanah - Lonely Very warm and emotional production. I get goosebumps whenever I hear it. 14. Imogen Heap - Hide & Seek (Tiësto’s In Search Of Sunrise Remix) This song won’t be released on any other CD ever. We made it especially for this volume of In Search Of Sunrise and it’s a perfect track to end the first disc of the mix. ISOS 6 – CD 02 1. Steve Forte Rio - A New Dawn A special melody to open a set with, very original. 2. Nic Chagall - What You Need (NC’s In Love With Prog Mix) There are two great mixes of this track but this one is my favorite for the CD. In a big room or arena I would play the harder mix. 3. Marc Marzenit - Trozitos De Navidad (Primavera Remix) A typical Tiësto track with great string pads. 4. John Dahlbäck - Don’t Speak A special and mysterious track with a unique and moody sound. 5. Deadmau5 - Arguru A producer and fresh talent from Canada, we will hear a lot from this guy in the following years. 6. First State featuring Anita Kelsey - Falling Big tune on the dancefloor. House beats with trance, a perfect combination! 7. Jonas Steur featuring Jennifer Rene - Fall To Pieces Very nice production of Jonas, it’s a big hit at the moment. 8. JES - Imagination (Tiësto Remix) My remix of one of my favorite singers. Fits perfectly on the album. 9. Tom Cloud - Mercury Room I am getting a little more trancy and deeper at the end of this CD, starting with this track. 10. Marcus Schössow - Chase My Rabbit Great track which has everything: it’s energetic, melodic and original. 11. Maor Levi - Reflect A warm track with great vocals. It’s been around for a while but definitely worth it to be on ISOS 06. 12. Progression - Different Day, Different Light The best track of their debut album. 13. Jedidja - Dancing Water We made this track especially for the water piece in our Elements Of Life show. You can hear the old skool Tiësto trance sound in this track. 14. D’Alt Vila - Breathing A perfect, beautiful melody to end the compilation with. When I finally listened to the whole CD, both part one and two in one take, I felt I was in a different zone! I hope you'll feel the same and that you will enjoy this mix. I gave it my best, Tiësto" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Kane Posted August 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2007 In all seriousness there are some wicked tracks on here, the first sampler has just come out & features some wicked stuff from there. Though I have to say I don't really rate him that much as a club Dj anymore I do admire Tiesto in terms of his ability to find new music, i mean how many of those artists are house hold names?
