Commercial trance fans were recently buoyed by news that Dutch scene icon Tiesto may be revisiting the genre with fresh material following his defection to all things EDM. Now the trance superstar appears to have attempted to use the announcement to his advantage in the upcoming DJ Mag Top 100 poll with the promise of a full trance album in exchange for fans making him #1 DJ on DJ Mag’s annual popularity contest.
Whilst we’re not sure how seriously the statement can be taken given the increasingly light-hearted nature of some of Tiesto’s recent statements including an apparent desire to marry couples what we do know is that many of the Dutchman’s fans have reacted angrily to the post, joke or not with a series of scathing comments and the obligatory troll post from angry mouse head wearing Canadian Deadmau5.
Personally we think Tiesto is wasting his time with his new campaign promise as if Dillon Francis’ heartfelt plea for fans to vote for the producer to his consistent stance on burritos couldn’t convince you then we think nothing would.
