Renowned electronic artist Armin van Buuren releases his first-ever acoustic album, Piano, out now via Armada Music.
The 15-track album features ‘Sonic Samba’ and brand-new songs like ‘Be My Lighthouse’ and ‘Fathers And Sons’. To complement the album, Armin has produced a unique DJ mix featuring tracks from Piano alongside works by composers such as Hans Zimmer, Jon Hopkins, and Ludovico Einaudi, bridging the gap between the classical and electronic worlds.
Far from being a departure from his electronic roots, Piano emphasizes the classical influences that have long shaped Armin’s sound. His music is deeply rooted in a lifelong connection to classical tradition—nurtured by a piano-playing father and an early immersion in composers whose works instilled in him a lasting respect for melody, harmony, and structure.
