Tiesto fifth studio album has had us at the edge of our seat for months now! With snippets and mini-previews floating around here and there, his fans and followers have gone about compiling playlists and rips tirelessly in anticipation of the release of ‘A Town Called Paradise‘. The EDM Mogul has been at the forefront of pioneering dance music for over 15 years, and while we all may have our reservations about the sound styles he chooses to produce – Tiesto is a master at what he does!
Ahead of the album release on June 16th, Tiesto has uploaded a track-by-track video preview for fans to share and enjoy. It features preview of every track on the album, including thoughts and emotions behind each track from Tiesto himself and exclusive gig footage, adding that slight personal touch. After already revealing his playlist and list of collaborators on the album, one can expect that ‘A Town Called Paradise’ may just become Tiesto’s most exciting and comprehensive album of his career, reinstating his status as one of the greatest musicians in the Dance Music industry.
The video starts with the careful & caressing sound of ‘Red Lights‘, as Tiesto explains it was his first track he composed and how he was inspired by walking around in the streets of Sweden while producing it. ‘Footprints‘ was in response to him constantly touring and globetrotting around the world, leaving his footprints wherever he goes, and ‘Lightyears away‘ was described by him as a Massive Attack-inspired track with a haunting feel to it. He then speaks about ‘A Town Called Paradise‘, ‘Echoes‘, ‘Lost Train‘ and other tracks as he reminisces the inspiration behind them, giving us a good insight on the album making process!
