Just days after scoring their very own custom kit in FIFA 22, AREA21’s debut album finally bears both a name and artwork ahead of its November 12 arrival. Martin Garrix and Maejor had been slowly trickling out information surrounding their alias’ project since the former first disclosed its existence exactly one year ago during ADE’s virtual edition, with the two formally branding it Greatest Hits Vol. 1 and pairing the transmission with its sixth tracklist extension, “Own The Night.”We have to start off by stating the obvious that attaching a numeral to the 12-track LP optimistically alludes towards Greatest Hits Vol. 1 being the first of many AREA21 projects to come. Presumably the terminal preview before AREA21’s spaceship reaches its final destination in November and confirmed not to be the “21” ID from Garrix’s Spring Awakening set, AREA21’s latest tosses a third hat into the production mix, with STMPD RCRDS resident Todd Helder joining Garrix and Maejor after the three had previously hinted at a collaboration. “Own The Night” is without question the darkest-sounding member of Greatest Hits Vol. 1 yet, with Helder’s influence being outwardly noticeable from the get go as the trio dices elements from older alias cuts like “We Did It” and “Spaceships” with the unbridled originality soaked throughout the LP thus far.Watch another award-worthy animation from Titmouse for AREA21’s sixth single below.
