Untitled

Future Memories is the seventh studio album by German artist ATB. Released on May 1st, 2009.

Just like Two Worlds (2000) and Trilogy (2007) before it, this album also features 2 CDs. The first CD consists of dance songs, while the second one is to feature chill-out tunes. In another comparison with Trilogy, Future Memories features 26 tracks in total. Also, the album is released in two different versions: a normal one with two CDs, and a limited edition, which includes a DVD. It is yet to be comfirmed if there are going to be any bonus tracks.

Overview

ATB made almost all announcements considering this new album on his MySpace blog. The first thing he said was that the album won't be promoted in the old-fashioned way, and a single won't be released before the album. Instead, there'll be three tracks released at the same time (two of which are "What About Us" and "L.A. Nights") to represent the main album, and all three of them are going to have their own music videos. Also, four tracks on the album are going to have more than 160 beats per minute (which is uncommon in ATB's songs), but they're not anything close to the hardcore genre.[1] The reason for some of the songs' high BPM is the fact that for the first time in ATB's repertoire, he has incorporated Drum and Bass elements into some of the songs such as "What About Us" and "My Everything."

The opening to the song "Gravity" is similar melodically to the opening track on ATB's debut album Movin' Melodies, entitled "The First Tones."

On March 30th ATB published a preview on YouTube that featured 10 selected tracks from the album, including "What About Us", "My Everything", "Summervibes with 9PM" and others. It's worth noticing that ATB's first hit single "9pm (Till I Come)" turns 10 this year.[2]

Many singers and artists collaborated with ATB on this album, including some backcomers: Josh Gallahan, Haley Gibby (from Summer of Space), Betsie Larkin, Aruna, Tiff Lacey, Roberta Carter Harrison (from Wild Strawberries), Apple&Stone, Jades and Flanders.[3]
