    Armin van Buuren announced the release of a brand-new single titled, “Need You Now” ft. Jake Reese, which is currently available to stream/download via Armada Music at the following link.

    Adding to van Buuren’s extensive catalog of releases, “Need You Now” shows just how turbulent a love-stricken mind can be. Featuring the dynamic vocals and relatable lyrics of fellow Dutchman Jake Reese at its backdrop, the track’s house-tinged beats, and effervescent piano chords make for a multi-purpose listening experience for all dance music fans to enjoy.

    “You don’t always know when the inspiration for a song may come, but it struck me full force when I heard Jake Reese’s vocals and lyrics for this single.  I love how the story hits home so strongly and got lost in the vocal melody right away. It helped the track come alive very organically and I am very pleased with how it turned out. It’s another tune about love, because I know that’s precisely what you guys need!”
