Tiësto Removed From Stage After Accidentally Playing Trance
Dutch DJ Tiësto was last night removed from the decks at popular Miami nightclub, Mansion, after accidentally playing classic trance instead of commercial EDM because, according to the club, “it is a genre which doesn’t fit in with the club’s music policy which has been carefully selected and dictated by our VIP clientele”.
The incident took place about two thirds of the way through Tiësto’s run of the mill EDM set, which witnesses have described as “music” and “a medley of all the current big tracks played in sequence”, and is believed to have been caused by a mislabeled CD.
“Tiësto was absolutely smashing it,” claimed eye witness Jack Somers. “But then just after halfway through the set he played a track that emptied the dance floor. It sounded kind of beautiful and melodic, but everyone was totally bored by it, it definitely wasn’t EDM.”
“The security came in during the track and politely asked him to leave because the audience weren’t feeling the expansive trance track that he was playing, some had even begun booing, throwing away their glowsticks and eating their kandi in protest,” continued Jack. “There was no drop or big chainsaw synths in it and the melody just wasn’t basic and big room enough for me. I nearly spat out my champagne when I heard the track to be honest.”
“I like my EDM to fit a rudimentary drop-build-drop formula and this track just didn’t do that,” he added.
“You could see by Tiësto’s face that he knew he’d made a mistake in playing the track,” continued the 19 year old self confessed dance music expert. “He went willingly and took to the mic to apologise profusely which I thought was the least he could do for accidentally exposing those people to credible music.”
Reports claim that the track which Tiësto played is believed to be Sasha’s Xpander, a classic track of the trance genre and the type of track that Tiësto hasn’t been seen to play in about 5 or 6 years and one that the Dutch megastar had no intention of playing in his set of sub par commercial EDM.
“I’d just like to apologise to the people that came out. I’m truly sorry that I wasn’t able to spoon feed you the aural urine that you’re used to,” confessed Tiësto. “I stopped playing trance some years ago when I realised people were willing to pay me more if I just played popular EDM, but I must have mislabeled a track or something and when I thought I was playing a generic join the dots EDM record I actually played good old school trance music and for that I’m sorry, it won’t happen again.”
It is believed that, immediately after the show, Tiësto set about destroying his music collection in case he mistakenly plays anything good ever again “just to be on the safe side”.
The club released a brief statement confirming that Tiësto was removed from stage for not adhering to the club’s music policy.
“We’ve got a strict policy here at Mansion that we only play music that has been warmly approved by our clientele. They’re the ones paying into the club and buying the $1,000 bottles of champagne so their happiness and willingness to splurge recklessly is the most important thing for us. If they don’t like the music being played then they’re less likely to throw money around and so when it comes to that the DJ just has to change, we don’t care who it is.”
Take that! You blocked me on twitter.
same here! that sellout has blocked all my twitter accounts! traitor of a mother -_-
This article is a joke, right? Like The Onion? Because there’s no way a world renowned DJ like Tiësto would have destroyed his collection as a sympathetic gesture to appease a club full of twats and over-privileged wankers because he played real music and not that EDM garbage…
How do you manage to dress yourself in the morning?
He DID, but NOT willingly, Tiesco was threatened by a vicious takeover by the 12 strong board of governors at Drivel DJs if he didnt comply. In an attempt to appease them he has also removed all of his clips from youtoob, admitted that ‘Adagio for Strings’ was NOT his idea and had his statue at the entrance to Rotterdam Harbour removed.
You mean club full of snobs?

“Jack Somers” …I see what you did there! 🙂
This must be a joke! LOL
Good, I’m glad those fucks actually heard something that isn’t spoon fed shit.
really???? this happen with Sasha’s “Xpander” track???? jajajajajajaja this is unbelieveable. This is one of the Biggest Classic Electronic music. trance if u want to be so close in mind. poor rich people with closed taste and minds. namaste!
Lool people not getting that this site is a satire one.
Incase you didn’t get that it’s made up stuff. Christ on a cracker have a word with yourselves.
This is crap, if people prefer to drink their thousand dollar champagne over good trance music they should get a life, snobs! it was a mistake, get over it!!!
As a DJ / Producer, that I am, I believe the this so called EDM Genre is a joke, if you ask me. When you are a headliner, in a venue, people are going there and paying big money to enjoy the’re favorite artist, and not acting like a bunch of babies, because of a so-called genre not being played. The cllub should have not asked him to leave the stage at all, but who am I to say, Music is a universal language, and is the answer to the problems…………………….

The article is brilliant, the comments are better. People are really, really stupid.
Hope this is B’S. Trance is the best especially when played by Tiesto.
I WISH this really happened!!!!
rubbish edm is so big in the us, everywhere I go it hurts my ears. bahhahahas @ VIP clientele pouring
their expensive champagne over that music. trance takes me to places they could never even dream of
good one 😀 wish this would be true! I love Xpander 😀
HA ha ha ha ha ha ha ha this story looks very similar to a post i put on FB after seeing Tiesco at Victoria Park in london a few years back and vowed never to ever to go see the mediocre ‘rent-a-disco’ ‘DJ’ ever again. His set was utterly unrecognisable compared to the epic ‘Elements of Life’ tour where I managed to see almost half of his set after the total kaos of actually getting in to Alexandra Palace. Shame on you Tiesco for not releasing shares in Drivel DJs PLC. To all the doubters of the validity of this story… YES IT S TOTALLY TRUE!!!
MEGA-LOL !!!
