Background and release

Tiësto said about the album:

I was very inspired by the music coming from London and the scene there. London has always been a great place to discover new music and artists that inspire me. Working with these incredible artists and making music in the great city of London has been a great experience and I am delighted to show you the recorded momentum that we have experienced these weeks in London. All the ideas for the London Sessions album started in London at Sarm Studios.^[1]
