Blasterjaxx & Timmy Trumpet share emotional mainstage anthem !

One of dance music’s most magical and effective collabs is back in action, as Blasterjaxx & Timmy Trumpet deliver their much anticipated 2024 festival anthem “Time To Say Goodbye” Employing the melancholic lyrics from classical singer Andrea Bocelli’s eponymous hit song, this raving version has created a stir throughout the summer, with the headliner DJ’s using it as their closing track every show they played in summer ’24. This tune has become a much sought after mainstage favorite, now finally released through Maxximize to officially close off the festival season – a more than fitting gift to all the fans out there.

Blasterjaxx and Timmy Trumpet share a highly acclaimed history together. Both esteemed acts in their own right, they forged a partnership seven years ago, dropping the genre defining 2017 smash “Narco,” followed last year by another massive tune, “Fuego” (alongside Zafrir), which dominated the festival stages through widespread DJ support and enthused crowds.

The dance music icons teamed up once again, this time working their magic on a worldwide classic by Andrea Bocelli, “Time To Say Goodbye.” Released in the mid-90’s, the song quickly became a staple in contemporary classical music, while also reaching high on pop charts across the globe.

In the hands of Blasterjaxx and Timmy Trumpet, the warm, sentimental vocals are embedded in gentle pads, creating a peaceful moment when played live. Soon after, the guys unleash a series of piercing synth stabs, building on the vocals for an emotionally charged moment that is the highlight of any festival weekend. This is followed by pounding drums and roaring bass in the high-energy drop that gets the  rave flowing to maximum power again.

“Time To Say Goodbye” turned into an omnipresent tune, an emotional soundtrack to 2024’s festival season that perfectly captured both the energy and melancholic vibe of a shared festival experience. 

The dance music icons performed it at the world’s biggest stages, including Creamfields, Balaton, Untold and Ultra Europe. The track also played a part in a major milestone in Timmy Trumpet’s career–when he played it to close Tomorrowland’s iconic main stage for the first time. It also garnered massive support from industry heavyweights like Steve Aoki and Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, lighting up even more of the world’s most beloved festivals.

Now, as it is finally released through Blasterjaxx’ Maxximize label, the moment feels stronger than ever, like the guys say themselves:This track is an ode to the festival summer of 2024, while we reminisce on the amazing memories we made with our friends during the past few months. Thanks everyone for another great season, thank you for all the energy, the laughs, the tears, the memories. This one is for the fans.”
