Tiësto (Tijs Verwest), the most popular and most successful trance DJ in the Netherlands, has several channels to distribute his music. He makes his studio albums under the name Tiësto, but his productions are also released under artist names such as Allure, West & Storm and Andante. In addition, Tiësto also releases mix CDs, with which he offers the listener a glimpse into his record case.
He does this with various compilation series such as Magik, Space Age and also via the In Search Of Sunrise CDs. This 1999 installment is the first of the In Search Of Sunrise series, and Tiësto's great fame was then about to begin. His love for euphoric trance, often called somewhat disdainfully 'stadium trance', can also be heard on this part. He mixes songs from York, BT, Marc Vision and Gouryella and Kamaya Painters. The latter two are also projects by Tiësto, whether or not in collaboration with others, such as Gouryella, for which he worked with Ferry Corsten. (IV)more
