Description
For Tiësto making music is about giving. He is a performer who has transcended musical genres to create a global “Tiësto” brand. His achievements include: a Grammy nomination, numerous MTV awards, performing at the opening ceremony of the 2004 Athens Olympic Games to an audience of billions, and even a wax statue at Madame Tussauds.
He's headlined festivals around the globe including Ultra Music Festival,Stereosonic, Coachella,Tomorrowland, and Electric Daisy Carnivaland a storied 20-month residency at HakkasanLas Vegas Restaurant and Nightclub and Wet Republic pool at MGM Grand Hotel & Casino. Artists ranging from Kanye West and Coldplay to Katy Perry and Gotye have personally tapped him for high-profile remixes, while Guess and AKG have collaborated with him on a fashion line and headphone brand, respectively.
Moreover, A Town Called Paradise yielded his first two gold singles in the U.S. with the singles—"Wasted" [featuring Matthew Koma] and "Red Lights"—while a medley from the album also soundtracks a presentation at the Bellagio fountain in Las Vegas, a first for an EDM artist. With Sirius XM, he launched the "Club Life" channel, nodding to his acclaimed compilation brand of the same name—now in its third installment.
For Tiësto, A Town Called Paradise begins writing the next chapter of his career on the perfect note. "This is the album I've always wanted to make," he declares. "I didn't have the knowledge to execute it as well as I do now. I've learned so much, and I want to learn more. This is my next big thing and I couldn't be more excited." As he promises "the best night in the world" for fans that attend his residency shows, it's also clear that his modus operandi hasn't changed since he first started. "I want to make people feel happy with my music," concludes Tiësto. "That's the most important thing. I hope they feel great when they listen to this. That's what I want to give everyone."
