Speaking further on the album and his change in approach on ‘As Above So Below’Ferry commented, “I normally produce with a certain structure in mind, which is mostly designed for the dancefloor amongst other things. For this album, however, I went in with a completely blank piece paper, shut f the autopilot and just went with the flow. No rules, no overthinking. Just let it come naturally. That was one the biggest changes to how I approached the whole process making this album.”

As an artist who continues to challenge what it means to be an artist in dance music today, this transparent relationship and sharing his most inward and creative thoughts with his fans, Ferry Corsten has exhibited yet another multi-faceted side to his spectrum interests and talents, ‘As Above So Below’. Often in a world chaos we all need our own little piece calm, and perhaps none more so than in these current times. Through ‘As Above So Below’, Ferry Corsten seeks to express his own interpretation tranquillity and enables others to find their peaceful moment reflection that allows the listener to find their equilibrium.
