From my experience, Armin has started to get less relevant amongst trancefamily circles, and turning to other trance acts like Solarstone.
He is changing the course of history with that album.
Just like these people:

No disrespect, but Armin is an absolute joke... :haha: Embarrass would have been a better title :toothless
In what universe can you deliver this amount of crap and still being considered a trance dj...??? :crazy: Same goes with his radioshow, where he has ignored/overlooked etc. the majority of the best (true to) trance records for over more than 5-8 years now :conf: :haha:

Yeah, Embarrass also was what I thought. And collabs with good or famous musicians using real instruments still don't make a track good.
I'm wondering if in time he will regret decisions he made in the past years. It's not that strange he wanted to do something else, very pop or maybe EDM, but then just say so, or clearly do it next to the trance (as Gaia?). Now it's looks like he's avoiding saying it's not trance.

Never go full Tiesto.

Tiesto must be proud of his padawan following his footsteps into the dark side.

i am a big fan of many things Armin did in the past, but even for EDM or whatever he is trying to relate to , this album doesnt deliver at all . funny that the best track is the chill out track , Looking for your name .
AVB and Cosmic Gate - Embargo , is not bad
AVB featuring Kensigton - Heading up high is best up beat vocal track on the album
the rest will be easily forgotten
Light The Fuse
What utter .
its funny too - browsing through the youtube playlist for embrace....its like all this electronic soft rock and then theres this vs hardwell song that sounds like it was ghost written in a different country by a different ghost producer on different ghost equipment...oh wait - it is..
and then its back to the soft michael bolton goes electronic .
oh and that title track - a homo erotic version of aerodynamic ffs really?? (no offence to the gays)
What utter .
