According to Armin van Buuren, that’s exactly how his new single ‘Not Giving Up On Love’ came into being. The second single of his forthcoming artist album ‘Mirage’ is a collaboration with no one less than Sophie Ellis-Bextor. This follow-up to ‘Full Focus’ definitely combines the best of both worlds.
‘Not Giving Up On Love’ is just as diverse as the rest of Armin’s ‘Mirage’ album, the follow-up to Armin’s ‘76′, ‘Shivers’ and ‘Imagine’, to be released September 10th. Different from Armin’s previous works, ‘Not Giving Up On Love’ is a melodic, electro-sounding vocal beauty with real drums, a piano line and an absolute feel-good to it. Armin:”We used 131 bpm and so it’s a lot groovier and slower. The baseline is more melodic and electro based than you would normally expect from me. But I really like that sort of sound.”
