This Is What It Feels Like

Armin Van Buuren feat. Trevor Guthrie

Positiva/Virgin

WE SAY

This Is What It Feels Like sees enormously popular trance DJ and producer Armin Van Buuren joining the Positiva stable in its twentieth year. Voted the no. 1 DJ by readers of DJ magazine for five out of the last six years, Van Buuren is expanding his horizons into territory that might just deliver his biggest hit yet. This fusion of dance, rock and pop is a collaboration with Canadian singer-songwriter Trevor Guthrie and has already been an Essential New Tune for Pete Tong and a Future Anthem for Danny Howard, being the first single from Van Buuren's diverse and surprising fifth album Intense. An eye-catching video shot in the Nevada desert features a cameo from none other than adult film legend Ron Jeremy, notching up more than half a million views in the week following its debut on Van Buuren's own YouTube channel. File under 'no brainer'.
