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’.
