Listen to ‘What Took You So Long’
Premiered live on stage at Ultra Music Festival in Miami, ‘What Took You So Long’ sees Armin van Buuren and Gryffin turn heads with their debut linkup.

Listen to “Armin van Buuren – Breathe In” now

There’s more to breathing in than simply inhaling oxygen. Beyond the former, it’s about appreciating the moment and what’s about to happen, and about seeing the light in others. Taking a breath means accepting and respecting what’s in front of you, welcoming the outside influence and establishing a deeper connection with everything, or everyone, around you. And that’s what drives Armin van Buuren’s ninth studio album.

Inextricably linked to meditation and the major part it has come to play in Armin van Buuren’s life, ‘Breathe In’ follows on from ‘Feel Again’ to mark the next chapter in the Dutchman’s inspiring career. Across its twelve tracks, which were written in the two-plus years following the end of the pandemic and includes great songs such as ‘Forever (Stay Like This)’, ‘God Is In The Soundwaves’, ‘Love Is A Drug’, ‘Lose This Feeling’ and ‘Bed Of Rain’, the album radiates positivity, open-mindedness and unity, presenting a multidimensional snapshot of who Armin van Buuren is right now as a person and producer.

In sound, soul and spirit, the album is a celebration of life and an ode to how music and dance floors keep bringing people together. So focus on the wonder around you, inhale and let it shape a deeper understanding for one another. Just ‘Breathe In’.

Featuring a total of 29 new takes on the songs that comprise Armin van Buuren’s eighth studio album, ‘Feel Again (Remixes)’ has some of scene’s most exciting artists rekindling the audial remnants of the Dutchman’s search for harmony within. From Dr Phunk’s remix of ‘Superman’, which was already played Ushuaïa and Amsterdam Music Festival, to previously unreleased renditions from artists such as C-Systems, LÜRUM, anamē, Brian Kearney, MatricK, Bogdan Vix & UUFO, Ilan Bluestone and Starpicker, this remix album offers a listening experience as inspired, balanced and touching as the original body of work.

One of the biggest hits in the U.K. this summer, D.O.D’s chart-conquering single ‘So Much In Love’ welcomes a big, club-centric remix from none other than Grammy-nominated scene leader Armin van Buuren. Upholding the key elements of the original record whilst bringing in a rousing melody that nods toward the Dutchman’s trance-minded output, this take on the internationally acclaimed hit only adds to the surging momentum.

About a year and a half after its late-2021 release, Armin van Buuren and The Stickmen Project’s ‘No Fun’ is back in action through this two-track remix pack. Containing a groove-driven version from Brazilian producer Öwnboss as well as a deeper, techno-leaning rework created by rising duo Goom Gum, ‘No Fun (Remixes)’ is marking the global club scene as its personal playground.

As some may recall, there used to be a time when trance music was stylistically boxed in. Either it fit the predominant view of high-energy uplifting to a tee, or a barrage of “this is not trance” comments would be imminent. But over time, even the most headstrong purists came to realize that trance music can’t, won’t and shouldn’t be pigeonholed. It’s about breaking the mold instead, to capture that particular feeling no matter the tempo or the sound. And that notion is echoed by the twentieth installment of his A State of Trance mix album series: ‘A State of Trance 2023 (Mixed by Armin van Buuren)’.

Brandishing tracks from artists such as Ahmed Helmy, Ben Gold, Bryan Kearney, Eelke Kleijn, Ferry Corsten, Luke Bond, Maarten de Jong and Maddix across three sides rather than the usual two, ‘A State Of Trance 2023 (Mixed by Armin van Buuren)’ shows that the essence of trance music reaches far, wide and beyond the once-imposed borders. From the slower, melodic house & techno-tinged tracks you hear on the beach to the crossbreed bangers played in the club to the highly energetic Who’s Afraid Of 138?! tunes that tears the dance floor apart, the mix album imparts that the genre’s diversity is a major strength rather than a flaw. And if we could just take that view and apply it to the grand scheme of things, the world may just become a much better place.
