LOL!

....you know some of us might googled...

back to topic, ofc it is not something great and if it wasn't for this artist name we wouldn't sit here replying probably. But the whole nostalgia of isos vibes makes us keep hoping for a return before Tijs retires, that's it. ^^

DJ Tiësto – Back in Trance (2025) – April 1st on Armada Music

Legendary electronic music icon Tiësto makes a triumphant return to his trance roots in 2025 with his highly anticipated new album, Back in Trance! Seventeen years since his last deep dive into the genre, he masterfully blends classic melodic euphoria with cutting-edge production, reviving the golden age of trance while propelling it into the future. From the soaring arpeggios of the epic opener Astral Echo to the hypnotic depths of his mysterious collab Nebula, each track is both a homage to trance’s essence and a bold evolution. With his signature energy and modern sound design, Tiësto doesn’t just revisit the past—he redefines it. Back in Trance isn’t just an album; it’s a declaration: Trance is forever.

Looks more like Paul van Dyk tbh.

 

[Daysleeper]

Thats a terrible cover

 

[Trance4Ever]

April fools cover.

 

[Reptile]

Boring. Sounds like some AI generated crap.

 

[Progrez]

Simple but quite enjoyable track. I’d love to hear an extended version.

Guitar sounds cheap and looks like either Tiesto is restructuring we rave you article are saying he is coming back to trance. But, I ask why and how did they come to that conclusion? He left because his heart wasn't in it anymore so why come back? Just like Russell T Davis ruined Doctor Who by coming back I don't think he is going to do anything to improve Trance.

To be honest, I haven’t heard anything about his return to trance, and the post date for his album thinly hints at an April Fools’ joke. Earlier this year, he had the ISOS mix where he played classic trance hits from that golden era, and it was painful to watch how his new audience just didn’t understand what to do with that music. Honestly, even through the monitor screen, you could see they didn’t like what he was playing. So I think it was something like warming up, an attempt to test the waters with the audience, and it failed spectacularly. Now, this mix is probably impossible to find on YouTube. Tiësto has already lost his old audience and gained a new one with completely different tastes and preferences. So I don’t think he’ll be returning to trance when it’s not commercially viable for him at the moment. Listening to the track again now, I’d probably write the same thing overall, it’s pleasant to me.

 

[NameLessYet]

Well, what does he want to do?

The Chinese means "the countdown is the time to the Trance set at Dreamstate Nov 22nd".

Not an April fools joke dude.

Curious to what he will play, modern, classics, producer set etc.
Loved the ISOS from this year, though it was awesome. I think it was more nostalgia with Tiesto playing older records in the modern day.

The question is: if he does want to do something with trance again…

- is it a la Armin, a business case where he doesn’t care at all about the current scene and will try to create a ‘brand’ around him, collabs with Charlotte de Witte and the one with green hair.

- or does he go down the artistic route, preferably with Dennis Waakop, and come up with something real, and maybe support those who are putting in the effort now, let’s say Enigma State, Thrillseekers, Activa, Solarstone, eventhough the target group for that will be much smaller…

is it even a question really? seems 101% obvious to me

 

[facade1984]

I actually kinda like this. Not at all what id play of course but to listen to it's kinda nice

 

[Tievb21]

Either way it is/could be, trance scene can only gain from such possible outcome, and we really need fresh blood and audience to get interested again. Lately there was a headline "There are no hip-hop songs in the US top 40 for the first time since 1990", hopefully the youth will be bored of the bullshit trap, meaningless fake hip hop with autotune, etc, and will try to find a better music elsewhere. Let's see.

 

[Narel]

It doesn’t sound like a Tiesto tune. Old Tiesto I mean by this, which I assume he would revert to for this kind of thing. There was always a swing a quantization ‘looseness’ to his tracks (not a criticism) that isn’t present here. This sounds like a York tune but with genetic perc loops

 

[Trance4Ever]

So Tiesto is coming back to trance rumours have started again. He better release this as an extended mix.

 

[LostLegend]

All his best music was made by someone else and he left to play shitty big room EDM to trust fund kids in Vegas decades ago.

People like Steve Helstrip, Ferry, Solarstone, PvD & Lange all stuck around when arguably many of those could have followed a similar route even through the real dark times of the genre. And what? We're all supposed to be hyped for his 'return'?

Honestly screw him.
Him & Waakop made some fantastic music back in the day, but that was 20 years ago. Time we all moved on.

Doubt it.

But PvD doesn't want to be associated with Trance music he calls it Electronic Music now.
