Armin van Buuren’s New Album Will Feature 51 Tracks

Armin van Buuren ’s Breathe is a bold statement of personal growth and creative evolution. Spanning 51 tracks across two parts, with Breathe Out set for release on June 27, the project marks a significant shift in the trance legend’s career. After decades at the top of the EDM world, Breathe is van Buuren’s reflection on finding balance between fame and self-care, turning his journey of mental health and personal growth into an expansive, genre-defying sonic experience.

The album’s centerpiece is its honesty. Van Buuren’s evolution is palpable throughout the release, from introspective tracks like Alive and Want Some More to more experimental collaborations with the likes of David Guetta, Moby, and even Bon Jovi. Keep the Faith—a rock-trance crossover—might raise eyebrows, but it’s a testament to van Buuren’s willingness to stretch boundaries while staying true to his roots.

Breathe isn’t just about high-energy festival anthems; it’s also about deep, therapeutic moments. The tracks pulse with raw emotion, offering glimpses into an artist who’s experienced both the highs of global stardom and the lows of mental struggles. Van Buuren’s statement rings true: “This album is about creative freedom, living fully, and putting everything I’ve learned—especially through my journey with mental health and self-growth—into the music.”

The album’s sheer size may feel overwhelming, but it works as a cathartic exhale—a release of years of pressure and expectation. It’s a celebration of life, freedom, and, ultimately, peace. With Breathe, Armin van Buuren proves that, after two decades at the forefront of EDM, true artistry comes when you let go of perfection and embrace growth.
