Tiësto Embraces His Trance Roots in New Genre-Spanning Live Show, PRISMATIC

Tiësto is going on his own Eras Tour. 

The megawatt producer is officially plotting his return to trance, a strategic next step his fans have suspected since his two-hour "In Search of Sunshine" set at EDC Las Vegas in May. Named after his 1999 trance compilation album, the set returned Tiësto to his roots. With the revelation of PRISMATIC, his new live show, the trance titan pays homage to the genre that launched his career more than two decades ago – and the many styles of dance/electronic music he's since embraced.

"PRISMATIC is an epic [four-hour] musical journey...A mix of all the different Tiësto styles over the years. This includes TRANCE, which hasn't been part of my sets until my recent and very special In Search of Sunrise performance at EDC," he wrote in an Instagram post collating clips from the first PRISMATIC show in Mexico City. 

While details about future PRISMATIC dates are still to come, the live concept promises to be a kaleidoscopic tribute to trance, progressive house, slap house, bigroom house, and beyond that colorfully embodies Tiësto's experimentation with different sounds over the years. The latest example, dance/rap crossover "OMG!" with Sexyy Red, recently landed on the F1 soundtrack, F1 The Album.
