Armin van Buuren & W&W – D# Fat (Original Mix)

Every now and then, amid the vast sea of electronic releases, a song comes along that knocks you off your feet. Armin van Buuren and W&W’s latest effort, “D# Fat,” is one of those songs. While Armin’s collaboration with Arty, “Nehalennia,” was wonderful for its spiritual and revitalizing potency, “D# Fat” excels through sheer immensity. From the thumping kicks of its riveting intro, to the delicate-turned-exhilarating atmosphere of its breakdown and its ensuing devastating drop, “D# Fat” is dripping with a masterful prowess from start to finish. After the rampant success of W&W and Ummet Ozcan’s “The Code,” ”D# Fat” feels like a natural succession to the ubiquitous single, guided by the hands of trance’s beloved patriarch.
