so, there are no tracks that we might have heard snippets of anywhere?
Oh, no, no, the thing is when you hear me on tour, of course, I’m playing quite a lot of the new stuff. So when you see me playing you may have heard a few pieces. And then as well, there was kind of a track that we gave a sneaky preview before the Ibiza season, it was called “Rock This”, which become quite a big hit our there. It’s a really punchy, “electro’y”, “trancy”, piano anthem.
This already told me that it's going to be an album that I'm not going to like.

There's a word that sums up this sort of behaviour, and that word is 'reject.'

" There is a track on the album, which captures one of these moments– when I played Creamfields in Argentina, and the track is called A Wonderful Day . I played this massive riff and no one knew it, but everyone was instantly hooked. It was one of those special moments."
"Then also another approach is a track called Everywhere. When people write about love they write about it in a very sad painful way, or they write about it in a way where everything is over sized, super-duper big. But if it comes down to it, and this is what I believe, what everyone has felt before is those very tiny intimate moments. This is what I tried to capture with Everywhere. It’s very hard electro sounding, but the lyrics are very fine and very thin. Very intimate, very sensitive, but at the same time, very massive."

DD: Speaking of the music being more intense, there’s a drum and bass track on the new album, yes?
PvD: Yes. I’ve been called a trance DJ. I’m not even really playing any trance tracks. Yes I have synth sweeps and big pads but at the same time it’s much techier and more electro than what you would get in the trance world. For me it’s all about electronic music and for me, electronic music is combining all my favorite elements. For that particular song it just felt like, ‘wow, it’s so much better for the composition if I speed the whole song up.’ This track, at 130 with a house beat, would sound like shit.
