In his opening message, he looked back on how electronic music changed over the years.

He recalled its journey from underground club culture to a dominant presence on global festival stages.

Over that period, he witnessed new artists break through, musical styles evolve, and festivals expand into massive global events.

He also expressed gratitude for being able to keep performing around the world.

Along the way, he continues to discover new talent.

Most of all, he values the deep emotional connection he still shares with audiences across generations.

Throughout its run, CLUBLIFE served as more than just a radio show.

Many artists first gained international exposure through the program before going on to build major careers.

In his farewell remarks, Tiësto highlighted the show’s role as a launchpad for new talent within electronic music.
