Trance music’s celestial architect, ATB, has announced his final studio album, bringing a poignant closure to a career that soundtracked a generation’s daydreams.
The German dance music legend, who has been active for roughly three decades, is releasing his last studio album in 2025, according to a press release shared with EDM.com. He has not announced a concrete release date at the time of this writing.
10 studio albums and over 55 Gold and Platinum records later, ATB’s euphoric music continues to enrapture fans. From the timeless vocals of “9PM (Till I Come)” to the blissed-out grandeur of “Ecstasy,” many of his songs are considered generational classics in trance lore.
Back in 2021, we asked the influential producer what drove him to continue making music.
“You know, when I was five and 10 years old, I used to take instruments and create new melodies. It’s always been a goal for me to make melodies that survived over the years,” ATB told us in an interview at the time. “Whenever someone comes to me and tells me that a song of mine brought them through really rough times, I tell myself, ‘Okay, that’s why I’m doing music.’ So this is what drives me to do more music. I can be in other people’s lives through my music and it’s a good feeling.”
As the final radiant crescendo echoes from his studio, ATB is launching a 2024 tour, ironically billed as “Don’t Stop.” Kicking off today, the summer tour “will allow the fans to hear all the ATB classics but with special attention given to unreleased music that will appear on the final studio album,” per the press release.
