Trance titan Armin van Buuren<\/a> has officially entered drum & bass territory\u2014and he didn’t come alone. He’s teamed up with\u00a0Pendulum<\/a>\u00a0and the band’s frontman,\u00a0Rob Swire<\/a>, to release a blistering rework of last month’s progressive house release, “Sound of You<\/a>.”<\/p>\n

This time around, the music hits with the unmistakable grit of drum & bass. While the new rework maintains the melodic punch of its predecessor’s build, it quickly veers into uncharted territory for van Buuren. The drop represents a full-blown genre pivot\u00a0that belies the Dutchman’s newcomer status in the drum & bass world.<\/p>\n

“Drum & bass isn\u2019t my usual space, but I had some ideas and it was a no-brainer to collaborate closely with Pendulum on this version,” van Buuren said in a press release. “Being in the studio together made all the difference.”<\/p>\n

The collaboration is fitting. Pendulum built its legacy on genre fusion\u2014metal, drum & bass and beyond\u2014and continues to deliver boundary-breaking sets. Their new version of “Sound of You” adds yet another stylistic badge to van Buuren’s crowded sash, reinforcing his standing as an electronic music icon unafraid of evolution.<\/p>\n
