Released 7 Years Ago: Armin van Buuren – Ping Pong (Hardwell Remix)

Following up from his previous release ‘Everybody Is In The Place’, Dutch maestro Hardwell released his remix of Armin van Buuren’s ‘Ping Pong’. Never originally intended for release, Armin’s ‘Ping Pong’ song grew organically into a life of its own. Spawned from an idea to set a special mind-blowing 3D graphics moment apart during his globally renowned Armin Only show, the ‘Ping Pong’ song had since snatched the attention of fans not just at the show but also across the socials. In a bid to give this fan-favourite something extra Armin called in a favour from his long-time buddy and fellow countryman, Hardwell. Delivering all the added progressive house-tinged potency desired, Hardwell’s signature sound simply emanates from the core of Armin’s original to give the track a coating of big room house that will have your sense rebounding from pillar to post.

Given its world premiere during his Ultra Music Festival 2014 closing set, which to date has received over 12 million views on YouTube, Hardwell’s interaction with the crowd had them clambering for the skies with hands ricocheting from side-to-side before the drop threw the audience into a rapturous wave of energy and unleashing another Hardwell remix hit. Released via Armada Music on the 28th of April 2014, Hardwell’s cut of Armin van Buuren’s ‘Ping Pong’ was a sure-fire festival anthem ready for the summer season.
