interviews with him and he like all DJ's/Producers is incredibly
polite and not too hot headed as you might expect someone who gets
tens of thousands of people screaming his name out! Of course Paul
Van Dyk it the most polite and modest of all the "Top Trance Jocks"
Well im actually just begining to realise he has done lost of
collaberations....i knew about Gouryella with Ferry Corsten but im
finding more and more tracks with him involved somewhere.
Thanks for the hint.....i dont listen to that much by him anyways but
I was actually praising him for "In my Memory" that shows he does
actually have some musical talent.
Anyways...keep your opinions coming...I thought if Tiesto was
mentioned I would get hundreds of the zombies all replying along the
lines of "Tiesto is a god" "he is the greatest thing in trance
music" "you just dont appreciate good trance music" !-)
