He began releasing information on Noculan Records' sub-labels Chemo and Coolman in 1994. He released hardcore and gabber tracks under Da Joker and DJ Limited names during his years. Tisto was later discovered by the general manager of Rotterdam-based Basic Beat Recordings.

Tisto purchased records on the sub-label Trashcan, which was established by Arny, and later launched the Guardian Angel sub-label with Arny, in which they introduced the famous Forbidden Paradise line. He appeared on Bonzai Jumps and XTC, the Lightning Records sub-labels, from 1995 to 1996. He met Yves Vandichel on his sub-label DJ Yves, a division of the now defunct Human Resource label XSV Music in 1997.

Tisto decided to concentrate on his solo work after the release of "Tenshi" in September 2000 and left Ferry Corsten to take on the Gouryella project solely as his own.

Tisto and the ATHOC met in Athens in January 2004 to attend a meeting.

Almost 60,000 people attended the last rehearsal, which took place on August 10th.

The Dutch athletes began dancing in front of the DJ booth and then had to be led by authorities during their Olympian appearances. The performance featured new songs that were specially made for the Opening Ceremony and songs that were intended to match the ceremony's spirit and theme.

Tisto discussed why he left trance music in a 2014 interview with DJ Magazine. When asked if his decision to leave the genre had a huge influence on his success in the United States, the Dutch artiste said, "Maybe, it's impossible to say." I think I'd still be the 'Trance guy,' but the difference is that you're not really being relevant. While some of the old trance guys still have their following, it doesn't appear that anyone really cares, which is the biggest difference. It's cool to be in touch with the new ones who are coming up – the 16 and 18-year olds who are making house music see me as a godfather and it's really cool to be in touch with them. "I believe if I'd been a trance DJ, they'd have been so disengaged with the music that they wouldn't be able to inspire them, and vice versa."
