Fresh off the heels of the discharge of his newest studio album Breathe In, Armin van Buuren is again in assist of Ukrainian manufacturing duo ARTBAT on their newest collaborative single, “Take Off.” Armin has been taking part in this one out in his latest units and it’s a delightfully darkish offramp for the trance legend. Featuring mind-blowing manufacturing, epic buildups and a heavy-hitting drop, that is certain to shock and delight followers of each artists.
Originally conceived behind the scenes finally yr’s ASOT (A State of Trance) pageant, ARTBAT obtained the last word seal of approval as Armin sought them out for a collab. Now, that imaginative and prescient has been realized, and us listeners are the direct benefactors of such a beautiful team-up.
“Collaborating with Armin van Buuren, who is such a legend in the dance game, has been really special,” ARTBAT says. “We can’t believe this collaboration hasn’t happened before now, and we’re very happy that Armin asked us to do a collaboration, which has brought something so special to our sound. It’s been enjoyable to explore and push the boundaries of both our sounds. It’s an honor to have worked alongside such a groundbreaker in his lane.”
“ARTBAT’s exceptional performance at last year’s ‘A State of Trance’ festival sparked immense inspiration in me,” Armin van Buuren provides. “Even though I was deep into album mode and immersed in a sound that is quite different from ‘Take Off,’ their music prompted a lot of ideas. I thought of the ‘Space Case’ concept and how its theme, spoken word, and trancey stabs would chime in with the unique ARTBAT sound. This collaboration feels like it’s been a long time coming, and I’m thrilled it’s now seeing the light of day.”
