Quel che c'è da notare di quest'evento è che come sempre gli olandesi sono avanti anni luce e non hanno la spocchia di noi italiani, sempre pronti a dividere i dj in commerciali e non commerciali. I dj sono tutti commerciali e non fanno musica di ricerca, in quanto se fai ricerca non fai ballare. O fanno tutti musica di ricerca ballerina. Tiesto equivale in questo a Sinclar e Danny Howells e a chi vi viene in mente. E per questo si tratta di un evento IMPERDIBILE per gli amanti della club culture mondiale.
