Cyprus' DJ Gee Papa Sets a Date with Guiness World Records

Last summer DJ Gee Papa aka George Papapetrou from Nicosia DJ'd for an astounding 105 hours in an attempt to take the crown for the world's Longest Club DJ Marathon. However, his superhuman effort wasn't officially verified by 'the ultimate authority on record-breaking achievement' - Guinness World Records. He was devastated. But, where most people might have given up on the idea, Gee refined his mission for 2008, obtaining sponsorship, media support and, most importantly, booking an official from Guinness World Records to oversee the gig!

So the dates are now set - from Tuesday 1st to Sunday 6th June - for a six-day-long DJ-athon at Dot Club in Nicosia. With ANT1 TV and ANT FM as media sponsors, the epic event will be run in collaboration with Nicosia Municipal Council and the Greek Embassy in Cyprus. And, through cooperation with the Greek Ambassador and Greek Embassy in Cyprus, part of the net income from the event will be donated to victims of last year's fire disaster in Greece.
A professional DJ since 1990, Gee studied psychology prior to playing clubs alongside the likes of Tiësto, Sasha, Deep Dish and James Zabiela. He has also worked as a radio producer and DJ tutor, hosting local classes for over 30 students. To prepare for this Herculean task though, Gee's been running for two to three hours a day, avoiding using the toilet (although under regulations he's allowed a five-minute toilet break every hour) and not eating or sleeping much either. Inspired by Armin van Buuren's track 'This World Is Watching Me', he's even designed flyers and arranged a live DJ feed on the Cyprus-based social networking site www.we-r-you.com.
'This time it's going to be official, verified on the spot by the Guinness representative!' commented Gee. 'We've got some heavyweight support, including Nicosia Municipal Council, the Greek Embassy in Cyprus, ANT1 TV/ANT FM and Pioneer. I'm now focused on the big sleepless adventure up ahead and hope people around the world will show their support as I'm live in the mix at www.we-r-you.com.'
According to Guinness World Records, the record for the Longest Club DJ Marathon still stands at 88 hours, set between 30th July and 3rd August 2006, by Agustin E. Gonzalez Aguilar of Mexico. So although Gee is aiming to beat 105 hours, he will actually create a new record if he conquers 88 hours of continuous mixing. Using Pioneer CDJ-1000MK3s, a DJM-800 mixer, Funktion One loudspeakers and a whole lot of willpower, Gee plans to mix over 2,000 tracks and he's not allowed to play the same track twice. Each of the six days will therefore take on a musical theme, including Latin, mainstream and electronic.
Register at www.we-r-you.com to check out Gee's extreme DJ mission, starting 8pm local time/GMT+3 or 5.00pm UK time on Tuesday 1th June.
Footage will also be available after the event at www.djsounds.com.

Tiesto maps North American club tour ahead of 'Sunrise'

Trance/electronica DJ Tiesto [ tickets ] has lined up a club tour kicking off in May and running into early summer to back the latest edition of his "In Search of Sunrise" mix album series.

The Dutch producer/performer, whose real name is Tijs Verwest, will launch the run May 23 in San Francisco. Tiesto's schedule this time around shows him with multiple shows in many cities, often at different venues in the same town. The trek is due to hit 24 cities through late June. Details are below.

The DJ will "return to his club roots" on the outing, according to a press release, by playing before smaller and more intimate crowds than he faced on his world tour last year.

"I used to play two hour sets, and the commercial, mainstream crowds who listened to the radio and stuff weren't happy because I only played four or five of my own tunes, and the core fans weren't happy either, because they don't want the hear those tracks anymore, they want to hear new stuff and deeper stuff," Tiesto said in an interview last year with LiveDaily, explaining his five-hour-plus performances in New York and L.A. on his previous tour.

"I'm caught between being a DJ and an artist, so the first two-and-a-half hours I present the new album ['Elements of Live'], and you have the four elements that are the theme of the tour," he added. "Then I have the one hour that I call the power mix, all the biggest Tiesto tunes, and everything is synched, the visuals, lights, effects, pyrotechnics, everything. The last two-and-a-half hours is Tiesto the DJ, an old-school type set with trance records and big dance anthems."

"In Search of Sunrise 7: Asia," is Tiesto's latest entry in the popular mix series, which began in 1999. As with previous volumes in the series, including last year's "In Search of Sunrise 6: Ibiza," the new set will once again find Tiesto remixing songs originally recorded by other artists.

Armani, which is sponsoring the upcoming club tour, will also sponsor a 3-CD best-of compilation drawn from the various "Sunrise" albums to be sold exclusively at Armani Exchange stores.

Tiesto's most recent studio effort, last year's "Elements of Life," was the DJ's third album consisting of original compositions. The set was released last spring, peaking at No. 1 on Billboard's Electronic Music chart.

The album features vocal contributions from a variety of guest performers, including Charlotte Martin, Christian Burns, longtime Tiesto collaborator BT and Julie Thompson of electronic duo Holden & Thompson.

Greetings From The Elements of Life World Tour

Hi everybody!

I just finished my little holiday in Ibiza between the gigs. I love this island! I've been coming here for years and it's never boring. I was a bit disappointed that they closed Amnesia and a few other clubs but everybody was very positive that they will be open soon again.

I am really happy with the way things are going now on the 'Elements Of Life' World Tour. In the beginning of this year I felt a lot of pressure because it's not easy to roll out a tour like this worldwide. My whole team was under pressure and the first couple of shows we had to get used to each other because it was new for everybody. And a last minute cancellation of shows doesn't help either! But now, after a couple of months on the road I can say I am really proud of everyone who works with me on this tour:

Jes is doing a great performance every time again and again. This girl has so much energy, she is amazing! I am working on a new song with her at this moment. Julie Thompson is a great performer as well. I love her voice and she sings two songs on the show now. We finished a new song called 'Somewhere Inside' and it's going down well. I will probably put it on my next mix compilation. Christian Burns is also doing an excellent job!! When you close your eyes while he sings, you hardly hear the difference between the track on my album and his live performance.

Thinking of the 'Elements of Life' show as more of a concert, the Holland born DJ knew it had to be something incredible, and that it was. Both pleasing his fans, and opening the door of new experience for the entire Coachella audience, Tiësto was on point musically, and the stunning stage backdrop synched the audio event with the theme of the album. Large screens and LED curtains provided the visual aspect with captivating images of fire, water, air and earth, each essential element intertwined with the human form. At the end of the performance, the entire audience that reached far back onto the polo grounds, paid homage to Tiësto, with hands in the air, chanting his name.

Since its release on Ultra Records on April 10th, Tiësto's third artist album, 'Elements of Life', has been on the charts. Opening at #1 on Billboard's Electronic Album chart on week of release, it remains firmly in the same spot, and hit #71 for its debut on the Top 200, and is currently at #9 in the Top Independent Album category. In addition, Elements of Life also posted another huge success for dance music in Billboard, ranking at #8 for the most digital albums sold in the US. Charting at #1 on iTunes US for the dance album category, and #2 on iTunes Canada for largest selling album overall, this release has sold well over 15,000 in the first 2 weeks.

Dj Tiesto's Biography

THE BEGINNING

Tijs Verwest was born on 17 january 1969 in Breda. His interest for music started very early,at the age of twelve he already created music. When he reached twenty it became very serieus. Now a days he is one of the most famous and beloved DJ 's in the world, according to Paul Oakenfold the "Godfather" of the English dancescene. Since november 1999 he monthly performes as a resident in Gatecrasher at Leeds, the most popular club of England. In february of that same year he has a break trough with his spectecular set at Innercity. And with Gouryella, a production with Ferry Corsten, he get's a Top-20 hit in England. But however the fame and glory of this incredible DJ the man behind DJ Tiësto is still a very normal guy from Breda.


THE FIRST CLUB YEARS

Tijs has always had the feeling that he wanted to share his music with others. He never seriously had in mind to become such a star but everything became more and bigger. At the end of the eighties he mostly played in a little club called Spock, in Breda. Every thunderday, friday and saturday from 22.00 till 4.00 hour in the morning. At that time Breda wasn't the center of House music but that has made the style of his music and the final 'sound of DJ Tiësto'. There weren't any other DJ's so he wasn't influenced by the style of others. Spock was very small club, however very extravagant like the Roxy. There was space for two hundred people.

"It didn't matter if there where less people, I could do what I wanted, the isolement from other DJ's was good. Through that I could develope myself and my music." In the beginning of his carrier as DJ he mostly played new beat and acid house, sometimes some Madonna.Tijs likes the work of Madonna because her music shows that she likes to dance. Before the release of her album there where already dancemixes. for example 'Vogue' was one of the songs of Spock.

He also loves to do sets for seven or eight hours. "Because when you play somewhere for two hours you'll never know what's before and after you. you can't play the same ID's. Seven hours is long to play and after such a performance I am exhausted, because when I play I have to translate my feelings into music. That needs a very hard concentration. Fifteen minutes before I begin I am so in myself that I don't hear anyone talking to me. Playing music is more than put some vinyl on my equipment. timing is the most important thing in house music. You can play the same tracks at two nights but at one night the public get's bored, the other night the people are partying there heads of! Beeing a DJ and perform is like a topsport."


THE BREAKTHROUGH

Well there's one set everybody knows about and that's the one DJ Tiësto played at the first Innercity. It was the breakthrough for him and his music. "Innercity was one of the best party's for me that year, not only because it was my breakthrough. at that time I didn't even realised that but the party was very big and very good. The first Innercity was for me the first big night to DJ and I think that set was one of my best ever! it was a perfect set for a perfect public!" After Innercity DJ Tiësto's DJ agenda was soon be filled with festivals like the Love Parade, Natur One, Gatecrasher summer 1999 and Hyperstate. He travelled also to party island Ibiza." The people who are coming to Ibiza just want one thing and that's good music and party! They are very open minded, I've been there three times this summer, a week and two times for four days. That's long enough! because you don't get any sleep. The party at Ibiza is 24 hours a day. When you're going to Ibiza a week is enough, than it's still fun." Tiësto also performes monthly at Gatecrasher in England. "Gatecrasher is amazing! When your standing there you see an ocean of people. It's a can full of people. Gatecrasher isn't very big, but there can party 2.500 people in it.The public is very faithfull to you. When you're in a little depression during your set the public pulls you through. They love breaks, when the beat faint they're starting to shout and scream, clapping there hands like the English footballteam has scored a penalty!it gives you the feeling you're giving a concert. The interaction with the Gatecrasher public is very special." Unless the amazing succes of his work Tijs Verwest is still the same guy as before. He wanted to do something back for the people who already where his friends before the breakthrough. In authum 1999 he started a recordshop called 'Magik the recordshop' in the hart of is home city Breda in West-Brabant. Together with Arny, Tiësto's bussinesspartner, he started there also the Blackholelabel. The serie Forbidden Paradise and the Guardian Angel label was the idea of Arny before.

1999-2003

His remix of Delerium Featuring Sarh McLachlan - The Silence was the first house track ever broadcasted on daytime radio in northe america and was four weeks in the U.K. top 10 chart. In 2001. The first releases were the 2001 anthems Flight 643 and his long awaited artist album In My Memory, and lately massive anthems from Umerk, Mark Norman and Mr Sam vs. Fred Baker. Summer 2002 Black Hole Recordings UK is born, a sister company set up to service the english market. After winning almost every dance related award in 2002 a crown was put on his career by being voted the number 1 DJ in the world in DJ Magazine's top 100.

The year 2003 has been a year filled with highlights. Tiësto is now officially the first DJ in the world ever to sell out a stadium event with a solo performance for over 25.000 people. Like Nyana, the Tiësto In Concert DVD has reached the gold status, same for the hitsingle Traffic which is the first instrumental track to reach the number 1 chart position in 23 years. In 2003 Tiësto has won 3 TMF awards (Holland & Belgium), 2 Dutch DJ awards, one MTV holland award, and was again number 1 in DJ Magzine's top 100, first time a DJ got this spot twice in a row!

Until now this is the success and life story of this fabulous DJ, this year you can expect many, many more of DJ Tiësto.


2004

Tiësto to perform at the Opening Ceremony of the Olympic Games in Athens, Greece

Tiësto, twice voted the 1 DJ in the world by DJ Magazine,made Olympic history on Friday, August 13, when he became the first DJ ever to perform in an Opening Ceremony of the Olympic Games. Some four billion people were watching the planet's premier sport event, when the 28th Olympiad of the modern era opens in Greece, the land where the Olympics were born, and the City where they were revived 108 years ago. No DJ has ever performed at the Olympic Games. The President of the ATHENS 2004 Organizing Committee, Mrs. Gianna Angelopoulos-Daskalaki, heralded the announcement of Tiësto&8217;s participation, saying: "Our Ceremonies will include unique Greek artistic elements along with modern and international perspectives. While it is path-breaking, it is also natural, that a modern artist like Tiësto will contribute to the celebration we're planning on our opening night. We welcome him to Athens." In October 2003, Tiësto was approached by the Athens Organizing Committee for the Olympic Games (ATHOC) for a DJ-performance of 90 minutes during the parade of the athletes, a part of the Opening Ceremony of the Olympic Games. During this parade, all participating nations introduce their athletes, over 10,000 in total. ATHOC has shown it values art and innovation by asking the most popular DJ on Earth to produce the music for the parade. Tiësto performed his DJ-set live in the Olympic Stadium in Athens. This included new tracks produced especially for the Opening Ceremony and songs that have been tailored to compliment the spirit of the Ceremony. In connection with this announcement, Tiësto said, "I am honored to be to be part of the biggest sports event in the world. The fact that the Games are returned to their birthplace and to the city where they were revived makes Athens 2004 very special. The opportunity to perform my music for billions of people around the globe was one of the greatest highlight of my life."

Dj tiesto - Urban Train

We go our separate ways through the portals of love
truth was in creating, not the aftermath
can’t say I was nothing before you came into my life
but I will keep the memories for when my soul gets weary

bittersweet stores, they always have no end
in the quietude of daybreak, we watch the sunlight bend
can’t say I was nothing before you came into my life
now I’m late for the urban train to get back on the road again

running thristy in the rain
I’m breaking through those clouds again

DJ Tiesto - Ur

Wish I was a better man
Wish I had a better plan for dealing with this
What am I
What am I to do now?

Maybe I should run away
Maybe I could run away and never be found
What am I
What am I to do?

The way that I'm feeling
The dreams when I'm dreaming
Can this really be happening
Can it really be true?

You are
My love and my life
My heart and my soul
Just trying to keep the world
From smashing crashing in

I had this dream the other night
I had this crazy dream the other night
How have I
How have I arrived here?

My heart is unladed (!?)
and my head is exhausted
Is this powerful magic
Can it really be true?

You are
My blood is in your blood
My breathe in your mouth
Just trying to keep the world
From smashing crashing in

What about us?
What about all the plans that we made?
What about all those careful plans
Just careful plans we made
An else is clear (!?)

Full of Fear
Full of Hope
Full of You

My love and my life
My heart and my soul
Just trying to keep the world
From smashing crashing in

My blood is in your blood
Just trying to keep the world
From smashing crashing in

Dj tiesto - Walking On Clouds

Chase faded dayswith eyes that cannot see
I wanna feel it againwashing over me
Discover all of you one moment at a time
Taste,smell,secret cell,your soul,it touches mine

I need to feel up
Hope knows I need it this way
Like I'm Walking On Clouds
I can't come down-even if you wanted me to
I can't come down-even if you wanted me to

Nothing can stop me,I'm never satisfied
I take what i want,refuse to be denied
Live in the moment,the future can disguise
It's starting to touch us,but i still can't touch the sky

I need to feel up
Hope knows I need it this way
Like I'm Walking On Clouds
I can't come down

Even if you wanted me to,I can't come down
Even if you wanted me to,I can't come down
I can't come down......

Dj tiesto - Rain Down On Me (Tiesto Remix)

I've been running through this town,
I've been combing every street.
I've been searching for the reason within reasons,
Been searching for the higher ground in me.
And I've been trying to surrender,
To trust in every word.
All my days of misery,
Someone could have taken them from me.

So tell me where you are,
Tell me how you feel.
Tell me what you need,
Just tell me how you feel.
And let it all just rain on me,
Let it all just rain on me,
Let it all just rain on me....
Rain down on me.

If only for a day,
Oh if only for one night,
I could tell you this is everything that i have ever lived for,
But I'd be giving it all away.
So look into these eyes,
And tell me how you feel.
All my days of misery, someone could have taken them from me.

So tell me where you are,
Tell me how you feel.
Tell me what you need,
Just tell me how you feel.
And let it all just rain on me,
Let it all just rain on me,
Let it all just rain on me...
Rain down on me

So tell me where you are,
Tell me how you feel.
Tell me what you need,
Just tell me how you feel.
And let it all just rain on me,
Let it all just rain on me,
Let it all just rain on me...
Rain down on me
Let it all just rain on me

So tell me where you are,
Tell me how you feel.
Tell me what you need,
Just tell me how you feel.
And let it all just rain on me,
Let it all just rain on me,
Let it all just rain on me...
Rain down on me

Dj tiesto - Sweet Misery

Fall into you
Do you really want to know?
Tell me, tell me
Can you feel me lettin go? slowly
I'm scared to fall into you

I want to
Feel you
Touch you
Know you
I want to, so I let you set me free
Into sweet misery

There's a hunger do you know
Feed me, feed me
It's gettin harder not to show
Free me
I'm scared to fall into you

I want to
Feel you
Touch you
Know you
I want to, so I let you set me free
Into sweet misery

*chantin*

Sweet misery
I want to
Feel you
Touch you
Know you
I want to, so I let you set me free into Sweet misery

I want to
Feel you
Touch you
Know you
I want to, so I let you set me free
Sweet misery

Dj tiesto - Just Be

You can travel the world
But you can't run away
From the person you are in your heart
You can be who you want to be
Make us believe in you
Keep all your light in the dark
If you're searchin for truth
You must look in the mirror
And make sense of what you can see
Just be
Just be

They say learning to love yourself
Is the first step
That you take when you want to be real
Flying on planes to exotic locations
Won't teach you
How you really feel
Face up to the fact
That you are who you are
Nothing can change that belief
Just be
Just be

'cause now I know
It's not so far
To where I go
The hardest part
Is inside me
I need
To just be
Just be

Just be
Just be
Just be

I was lost
And I'm still lost
But I feel so much better

'cause now I know
It's not so far
To were I go
The hardest part
Is inside me
I need
To just be
Just be

DJ Tiesto - Love Comes Again

You have become
What you have always been
Life figuring out
Rephrase your vision

No words I can speak
A path should been chosen
All trembling track
She lead us back and here
the guts are

Love comes again
Just when I booked in none of her
Love can come again
You gotta believe that
Love comes again
Just when I booked in none of her
Love can come again

Deep within me
Turn all the secret stones
Voice of fields
Breathing when love holds
Still no word we can speak
A path should been chosen
But all trembling track
She lead us back and here
the guts are

Love comes again
Just when I booked in none of her
Love can come again
You gotta believe that
Love comes again
Just when I booked in none of her
Love can come again
