Featured track is: Imagine

The main inspiration for a lot of the tracks has come from the theme imagine. Says Armin, Imagine for me stands for the way I visualize music when I listen to it, and a lot of people have that same connection with music, especially trance which is so emotionally driven. Music is very personal for everybody, and what I've realized from my travels is that music transcends everything the same music can touch people all over the world. You cant judge someone else on their taste in music, and you cant turn people onto music that isnt for them - its just something that resonates with each individual. One of the beautiful things about being human is that we can imagine, create, and escape back into our imagination when we want to recall a feeling or invent something new

While trances universal appeal and Armins dedication to the genre have contributed to his huge global success (including a radio show that broadcasts on a massive 40 FM stations as well as satellite and internet radio, with over 6 million listeners a week), Armins albums are more than a series of trance tracks based on an 8-bar loop. Imagine is the product of two years work, with tracks recorded across 8 locations - everywhere from Washington to Holland, and LA to Ireland - and featuring a number of vocals, from the sublime tones of American Jennifer Rene to the rock-friendly sound of Liverpudlian Chris Jones on Going Wrong.

Some of the tracks are more melodic and chilled than past productions, says Armin, but the great thing about trance is the number of guises that it comes in. The intro track, Imagine, is an instrumental that takes in a number of different styles orchestral elements, guitasr, kickdrums trance has been criticised for being stuck in one formula but if you look around that just isnt the case. Trance DJs dont just play one style of music and are often influenced by many different genres as well. For me, it can be everything from the lush chords and guitars of Pink Floyd to the song structures of the Beatles or the vocal sounds of Amy Winehouse!

As well as vocals from the likes of Cathy Burton, Audrey Gallagher (a former Agnelli and Nelson collaborator and vocalist on the gorgeous John O Callaghan track Big Sky), Vera Ostrova of The Bluestorm, Sharon den Adel of rock band Within Temptation and more, the album features Armins brother on guitar on four of the tracks as well.

Prior to the albums release, Armin had been undertaking his usual grueling gig schedule, including an Armin Only event based around the Imagine theme another sell-out event.

Its amazing how much we use the word Imagine in our daily language says Armin. I hope this album resonates in the same way, and everybody can find a piece of music or a lyric that means something to them. A lot of the tracks are about love one of the ultimate triggers of emotion on all ends of the spectrum. Ive loved putting them together, from sitting down to write them to arranging and recording them. I tell all of the producers on Armada to do something they love, not just to produce what people expect, and this is what Ive done with Imagine.
