Armin van Buuren releases new album, 'Breathe In': Listen
Spanning 12 tracks, it's inspired by being back on dancefloors post-pandemic
Armin van Buuren has released his ninth studio album, 'Breathe In'.
Out via his own Armada Music label, the 12-track release features contributions from Ferry Corsten, Rank 1, Vini Vici and a number of guest vocalists. Written over the course of two years or so, it was inspired by being back on dance floors and inside clubs following the COVID-19 pandemic.
The album is described in a press release as the next step in the narrative that began with the 'Feel Again' LP, which came out in March last year. This latest record is said to explore a more upbeat and high-BPM sound than its predecessor.

van Buuren was named the world's No.1 trance DJ in DJ Mag's Top 100 DJs 2023. He finished fifth in the overall poll.
