At that time, Breda was not the center of House music, but it has created his style of music and wrap-up "sounding DJ Tiesto". There were no other DJs, therefore, it is not influenced by the style of work anyone else. Spock is a very small club, however, a very extravagant as the Roxy. There is enough space for 200 people. "Do not have values if there were fewer people, I can do what want." Isolation "from other DJs was only useful. I could develop their music and themselves."

Soon he moved to a more prominent clubs, which focus on the club and popular music from the Dutch charts. As a result, he opted for house music, simple hybrids bits imposed on deep bass, and began to create his own musical style. This recipe yielded excellent results.

You can not play the same their songs, so you always know ... Seven hours - so long game, and after a submission, I exhale completely, because when I play, I need to transfer my feelings into music. This requires very serious concentration. For 15 minutes before the start so I'm in itself that I did not even hear what I say . Playing music is much more than just put a plate on my equipment. Tempo - the most important thing in house music. You can play the same tracks two nights in succession, but one night the audience will be bored, but on the other - to disengage full! Being a DJ and play - as a sport. " There is one muses. The theme that everyone knows - one of those DJ Tiesto played at the first Innercity. It was the bombing of a career for him and his music.
