One thing’s for certain: linkups between Armin van Buuren and fellow Dutchmen W&W are tracks of the highest order. Joining forces again for the first time since their 2018 hit ‘Ready To Rave’, the electronic music titans hit Armada Music with their next highly anticipated, rave-leaning festival favorite: ‘Late Checkout’.
Having asserted itself as a peak-time crowd favorite across six months of plays at Ultra Music Festival, Tomorrowland, EDC Las Vegas, and many other premier festivals, ‘Late Checkout’ sees two of dance music’s foremost acts deliver the ultimate mainstage anthem. True to their potent and world-renowned signature sounds, this audial showstopper is powerful, commanding, and a surefire way to make any club night one to remember.
“Working with W&W again was a long time coming”, said Armin van Buuren, for whom this release comes off the back of a standout summer season that included a Latin America tour, a residency at Ushuaïa Ibiza and also his debut collaboration with David Guetta. “The boys and I go way back, and it was so good to hit the studio together to reconnect. I’m not surprised we ended up creating such a banger and I’m sure it will keep spicing up my live sets for the foreseeable future.”
W&W, who have been on quite the roll since they closed the year of 2023 with their collaborative hit remake of Dido’s ‘Thank You’, added: “Working with Armin is always a pleasure and an honor! It’s been a while since our last collab and when he sent us the idea of this track we immediately loved it! Went back and forward working on it with him and started testing the track out and the reactions have been really overwhelming. We’re so happy this one is finally out!”
