La potencia electrónica ARTBAT se une al pionero del trance Armin van Buuren para su primera colaboración "Take Off"

February 9, 2024 – Sparked by a chat backstage at Armin van Buuren’s flagship trance festival, A State of Trance, back in 2023, electronic music powerhouse duo ARTBAT have teamed up with the trance pioneer for a trance-meets-techno collaboration: ‘Take Off,’ released today on Armada Music.

Merging the pulsating bassline and rolling rhythm, characteristic of an ARTBAT production, with Armin van Buuren's signature trance builds, melodic chords, and driving bass, 'Take Off' skillfully infuses the Ukrainian pair’s distinctive output with the Dutchman’s expertise, resulting in a fresh and dynamic cross-genre debut linkup.

“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.”

"La excepcional actuación de ARTBAT en el festival 'A State of Trance' del año pasado despertó en mí una inmensa inspiración", añade Armin van Buuren. "Aunque estaba metido de lleno en el modo álbum e inmerso en un sonido muy diferente al de 'Take Off', su música me suscitó muchas ideas. Pensé en el concepto de 'Space Case' y en cómo su tema, la palabra hablada y los acordes trancey encajarían con el sonido único de ARTBAT. Esta colaboración parece haber llegado hace mucho tiempo, y estoy encantado de que ahora vea la luz".

Take Off' ya está disponible a través de Armada Music.
