I would like to say now, if it weren't for those old Ferry Corsten productions and remixes, i probably wouldn't be a DJ right now. Yes, thats how good those 1998/1999 tracks of his were. There are too many to mention. It's safe to say that he definitely inspired a generation of clubbers and DJ's - myself included.
His tunes have aged so well, they still sound as fresh today as they did in 1999. Others have tried to copy his sound but no one has come remotely close. I have seen him at Gatecrasher, Godskitchen and various other club nights and he is a very down to earth guy who loves his music. Ferry Corsten, we thank you.
Ferry can only be described as a genius, the Rotterdam based producer has been making Trance for many years, and is possibly the best producer to come out of Holland. He has taken abit of a backseat right now with other Dutch producers taking the limelight the most notable are Dj Tiesto, Armin Van Buuren, Roland Van Gelderen, Cor Fijneman, and Misja Helsloot, But the flying dutchman is still popping with tunes under various guises, Gouryella and System F to just name to of them. The man can only be described as the "God Of Trance".
Ferry Corsten is my absolute favorite DJ/producer of all time, alongside with Liam Howlett of the Prodigy. Who could forget such unforgettable Ferry productions such as "Carte Blanche", "Gouryella", and "The World", as well as remixes of "Barber's Adagio for Strings", Matt Darey's "Liberation", and "Madagascar"? His records inspired me to become a DJ, and it was Ferry that opened the door for me to the Electronic dance music scene. I think we all owe him much gratitude.
