This is a discography of the Dutch trance DJ/producer Tiësto.

During Tiësto's career, he has released three well known albums, after spending years searching for his personal style and working with deejays like Armin van Buuren (as Alibi) and Ferry Corsten (as Gouryella) he decided it was time to focus on his solo work. Tiësto's fame started to rise in the late 1990s after his set at the first ID&T Innercity party (Live at Innercity: Amsterdam RAI), and it continued to skyrocket in the early 2000s following his six-hour "Tiësto Solo" sets which he performed without other DJs or opening acts. He began releasing his Magik series on 1997 and ended in 2001. His last three full-length releases broke the 70,000-unit mark, and 2003 2xCD compilation Nyana recently hit 87,000, according to Nielsen SoundScan.[1]

His first studio album, In My Memory produced five major hits in Tiësto's career, the album was released from 2001 to 2003. The singles which launched his career were "Dallas 4PM", "Flight 643", "Obsession", "Lethal Industry" and "Suburban Train". A remix album was released later on and it charted #12 in the US Hot Dance Club Play[2] After becoming the "No. 1 DJ in the world" according to DJMag for three consecutive years, he released in 2004 his second studio album, entitled Just Be. The album contained a number one hit: its single "Traffic".[3] "Traffic" was the first instrumental track to reach the top spot in his homeland of Holland in 23 years. The album also brought a new trance anthem known as "Adagio for Strings", it is a remake of Samuel Barbers classical song "Adagio for Strings" which was adapted from its original format. By early 2004 Tiësto reached the peak in his career in Europe and had begun releasing his music in the United States and other countries from The Americas. In addition to this, a huge event made the release of the album Parade of the Athletes possible, as it was released worldwide in October 2004, it contains the music from Tiësto's set at the 2004 Summer Olympics Opening Ceremony, and new tracks. Simultaneously, the title song of his Just Be artist album started to climb the lists and it was being heard on the dancefloors everywhere. By the end of the year, he released an unmixed version of Parade of the Athletes, it featured the same tracks in its complete 12" versions. He later released his Just Be: Remixed album.

In 2007 it was announced that Tiësto would release a new album, Elements of Life, the album was a great success and has currently released five singles, the album moved 72,000 units in its April release, according to Nielsen SoundScan.[4] The acclaimed Elements of Life World Tour took place after the release of the album and was later on released as a DVD, titled Copenhagen: Elements of Life World Tour. His work with Elements of Life is not over yet, Tiësto has compiled a remix from every song of the album, originally dated to be released on January 29, 2008. It was first delayed to March 11, 2008,[5] and later April 28, 2008.[6] A Bonus Disc was only available only through the new digital download site of Black Hole Recordings on April 17 but later included on iTunes.

Tiësto, widely known for his Magik series and his In Search of Sunrise series had a couple of charting releases like In Search of Sunrise 6: Ibiza and In Search of Sunrise 5: Los Angeles, ISOS6 reached #46 in the Austria Albums Top 75 and ISOS5 reached #59. Back In 1995 Tiësto released his first compilation, Forbidden Paradise 3: The Quest for Atlantis as well as it's predecessors until Forbidden Paradise 7: Deep Forest. Tiësto has also worked on three Lost Treasures compilations, and two Space Age DJ mixes.[7] In Search of Sunrise 7: Asia is Tiësto's last compilation mix, it is being followed by a North American Tour during all of June.[8] In 2008, Tiësto announced his In Search of Sunrise: Summer Tour 2008, the tour will be presented by Armani Exchange and is set to start on May 23 which will include a stop at the Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival. This tour is in support of his upcoming In Search of Sunrise series compilation, which is part of a sponsorship partnership, with exclusive apparel and a limited edition 3 CD set.[9] An exclusive best of CD from the DJ’s own imprint Black Hole Recordings, called 10 Years of Black Hole Recordings was released also. Armani will sell an exclusive Tiësto branded tour T-shirt, and the artist will perform at three A|X in-stores during the tour.[10]

The remixing capabilities of Tiësto have been of great reluctancy, his most widely known tracks are his latest Klaus Badelt's remix of "He's a Pirate" which appeared on Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean, he also remixed Delerium's "Silence" song which is said to be the remix which sky-rocketed his career; Other remixes are Kane's "Rain Down On Me" song and Cary Brothers' "Ride" remix which he included in his latest In Search of Sunrise compilation.
