Artist Biography
TiΓ«sto is a name that no longer needs an introduction. He is synonymous with the best of electronic music, and continues to inspire a generation of up-and-coming young artists.
In addition to two Grammy nominations and a Grammy win in 2015, TiΓ«sto has been named the #1 DJ by Rolling Stone, voted βThe Greatest DJ of All Timeβ by Mixmag, ranked the #1 DJ in the world three times by DJ Mag, and was recently awarded the Edison Pop Oeuvre Lifetime Achievement Award (an honor he shares with David Bowie, Quincy Jones and U2 among others).
After conquering the house and trance worlds, the superstar producer led the charge in helping electronic music crossover into the mainstream with his last album, A Town Called Paradise in 2014. His single βRed Lightsβ is now certified gold in the US, Sweden and Canada, while βWastedβ with Matthew Koma recently went platinum in the US and is his highest-charting release to date. Clearly a taste of what was to come, TiΓ«sto has recently dropped new tunes with the The Chainsmokers, Martin Garrix, and pop sensation Natalie La Rose.
Collaborations are nothing new for TiΓ«sto, who believes in passing along his success by working with well-known names like Martin Garrix and Oliver Heldens, to name a few. For years now, he has helped up-and-coming acts in the electronic world find their way with his record label, Musical Freedom. Aside from his label, he also took part in 7Upβs DJing competition βYour Shot,β a competition for aspiring DJβs to learn the craft and perform alongside TiΓ«sto in Las Vegas.
At this point in his career, TiΓ«sto has toured the world countless times, performing for millions at Ultra, Coachella, Tomorrowland, TomorrowWorld and Electric Daisy Carnival, in addition to the innumerable clubs that he headlines. Heβs one of the few DJs in the world to hold a residency in Las Vegas, where he plays at Hakkasan and Wet Republic.
In spite of his hectic tour schedule, residency, and focus on creating new music, TiΓ«sto hasnβt forgotten his roots. As a champion of the DJ mix for decades, his Club Life compilations have become a staple in the dance world as has his Sirius XM channel of the same name. In addition, his weekly radio show is broadcast on 350 stations in 77 countries and has over 35 million listeners.
TiΓ«sto also remains an expert remixer to the biggest names in music, reworking smash hits for the likes of BeyoncΓ©, Coldplay, Kanye West, Sam Smith, Ellie Goulding, David Guetta, Major Lazer, Calvin Harris, and many more. In 2015, he won his first Grammy Award for his massively popular remix of John Legendβs βAll Of Me.β
TiΓ«sto has successfully transitioned his influence and savvy to industries beyond music, acting as an advisor to tech startups like Splice, Dubset and Doppler. Most recently, TiΓ«sto released his newly re-designed mobile app, where fans can consume all things TiΓ«sto. Through current collaborations with T-Mobile and Budweiser and soon-to-be-revealed efforts in the fashion space, the DJ is bringing dance music culture to more people than ever before.
Throughout the past two decades, TiΓ«sto has remained not only one of the worldβs most prolific and enduring artists, but one of musicβs top innovators. In spite of his accomplishments, TiΓ«sto does not see his work as being done. βDJing is my life,β the man isnβt afraid to admit. But more than that, βItβs a lifestyle.βTiΓ«sto is a name that no longer needs an introduction.
