It doesn't matter if they're famous or not - I just want to meet other creative people who can maybe bring something different to the studio than what I have. I think that's the most important thing for me. Tiesto bringcreativefamous share on social
I can honestly say that the fans inspire. There's an unexplainable rush that comes when I'm in the middle of a set and the energy from the fans hit me. I also get really inspired through collaborations. I've learned so much from the emerging producers I've worked with just as they've learned from me. Tiesto collaborationemergeenergy share on social
I was never attracted to the pop world. I listen to music that is pop sometimes. But I've never thought, 'Oh, I need to work with Ne-Yo now.' It's never really been my thing. Tiesto attracthavelisten Change image and share on social
I like 'Elle' magazine. I love things online, like when all the big brands have a fashion show, I like to see the new collections. Tiesto bigbrandcollection Change image and share on social
If you remix, people want to tap into your sound. If you keep that to yourself, it makes the sound more special. Tiesto makepeopleremix Change image and share on social
Napster is great so long as they put out tracks on there that have been officially released. I don't really mind people downloading my music; I also see it as a compliment. And if you are a real music lover, you want to have the original CD anyway 'cause then you feel more connected to the artist. Tiesto artistcomplimentconnect share on social
Remixes come very quickly, because you already have the melody and the vocals. I have a great passion for music, so it doesn't matter to me if it's a remix or an original production. I don't think about it as, 'Well, I have to spend three hours on a remix or I have to do something all original.' Tiesto greathourmatter share on social

I think it would be different to work with a guy like Kanye West or Jay-Z, those guys are so phenomenal, but just to work with a rapper, I don't think is really my thing. I really like songs, like true songs. Like indie songs. Tiesto guyindiejay share on social
