But a few notes: I have to admit, I have not yet heard some of the other nominees yet, especially as most have not yet played Miami, but often times from previous years we have seen the DJ/Producer get shafted for the normal POP REMIX flair because of name recognition. Lets hope things happen diferrently this year.
Good Luck Tijs (Tiesto's real name)! that statue will look great in your new Miami apartment!

New Years Eve 07/08
Well another marathon night awaits us this New Years........
For professional clubbers like us, NYE usually becomes a night to get away from the usual venue anarchy or 300 door fees and over priced bottle service (more overpriced than usual).
Whereas VIPs from the New York will come down and party at the various high-end, poolside hotel events, and Floridians will get their tickets to the clubs, its a different story for the A3 crew. In the world of nightlife, there are two nights that are considered "amateur hour" by most professional partiers. These are the nights when the people who never go out deem themselves ready to throw down. These are the people who get ready at their friends apartments, downing shots before even getting to their destinations......all the while announcing to the world (or anyone in earshot) "look out world here we come!" These are also the same people we regularly get footage of outside of the club, doubled over a storm drain retching up what was dinner while their friends hold their hair back asking "why did we have those Slippery Nipple shots before coming here?!"
Amateurs.....plain and simple.
There is an art to clubbing, staying out late enough to experience it all, but balancing the mix of alcohol, smoke and your own sense of self satisfaction. And when it comes to New Years Eve....satisfaction must always be 100% guaranteed!
Thats why at A3 we always want to take our viewers into the parties they werent invited.....showing you exclusive events at multi million dollar estates or unique venues. This New Years will be no diferrent of course.....
A3 will be at 2 private mansion parties and Shy's annual "After Hours" party, a schedule that will bring us well into the first sunrise of 2008.
Keep a look out about a week or so after the big night for our annual NYE roundup including all the outrageous parties and beautiful people we encountered in the first few hours of 2008.
Happy new year!

Tiesto Interview @ Winter Music Conference 2007
There are few dj/producers in the world who evoke the kind of passion that Tiesto does when brough up in conversation. Unless you are a die-hard "house head" most will immediatly bring up stories of where they were when they had their Tiesto "Moment." Originally from Holland, Tiesto's name is synonymous with massive walls of sound and music that takes you on a journey through peaks and valleys of energy culminating in massive explosions of energy. Spinning a mix of trance and "progressive house" Tiesto has always been a sucker for haunting vocals and etherial melodies. His tastes in venues have changed during the Winter Music Conference, and he has settled on a new tradition of playing one large venue (MANSION) and one smaller VIP style venue (The Setai Hotel) where he adjusts his music selections accordingly and plays with a little more of a "housey" feel as reflected in his famous summer series "In Search Of Sunrise."
He's come under fire in the last few years for what some consider "outrageous" fee's to spin, but in a world of consumerism, the market sets the prices and Tiesto fills up clubs from Miami to Tokyo to Cartegena.
Here we sit down with Tiesto, whose real name is Tijs Verwest just before the release of his "ELEMENTS OF LIFE" CD which has now been nominated for a Grammy Award.
