Hipp-E's Confessions
Музыкальные зарубежные · 31.01.2007
The idol of underground house music from the West Coast, Hipp-E, expressed his admiration for Tiesto this week and told the audience that he was completely captivated by the magnificent performance of the Dutch star DJ. "Tiesto creates a unique sense of presence; it's like watching a live rock concert when you see the musician, feel the energy emanating from him, and that's what people, in my opinion, like so much," reflects Hipp-E. "Most American DJs stand behind their consoles so indifferently and gloomily, remaining in the shadows, putting music first. But the musician at a concert is the main thing – the 'star of the show,' and the music is his creation. Honestly, I'm impressed by Tiesto's achievements in this regard; he deserves respect."

Hipp-E's own performance also went surprisingly well, as the musician himself claims, even though he played sets in techno and minimal styles before a whole army of trance fans. "Later, I learned from the event organizers that people were very engaged with my set, and there were even a few truly climactic moments, though it was quite a hard push, to put it mildly," says the musician. "But this push was because of Tiesto, and after I played my two hours, I joined in."
