ARMIN VAN BUUREN - Piano - 2LP - Deluxe 180g Vinyl [DEC 12]

2LP - 180g Black Vinyl with 16-page booklet housed in a deluxe heavyweight sleeve. Brand new album feat. 15 intimate piano songs, including a cover of Robert Miles 'Children'.

“There’s something about sitting there—just me, the keys, and the silence. No beats, no drops. Only raw emotion.”
 
Amid the euphoric rush of electronic dance music, Armin van Buuren found space in the quiet to write his most honest music yet. As someone who knows better than anyone what moves a crowd, he set out to discover what moved him. And often, that instrument is the piano.
 
Containing 15 intimate piano songs, this album shows a different side to the world-famous DJ and producer: more personal, more emotional. First recorded on his Steinway, then arranged into proper scores alongside piano teacher Geronimo, this body of work is saturated with the vulnerability of stepping beyond his comfort zone: swapping the grandiosity of the mainstage for rich piano tones lingering in silence. It’s pure, reflective, and as much as the beat-driven music he’s released over his storied career—100% Armin van Buuren.
 
Piano is available on a 2LP set, complete with 16-page booklet including pictures and liner notes by Armin.
