Among his most famous songs is “9pm (Till I Come)”, which topped the charts in the United Kingdom in 1998 and is widely regarded as the UK’s first Trance number one. The track features a guitar riff which became hugely popular. This guitar sound, which he accidentally found while experimenting with a new producing deck, became the trademark of his early hits. ATB continues to evolve and change with every album. His current style involves more vocals and varied sounds, with frequent pianos.
Despite only releasing a few more singles in the UK, namely “Don’t stop!” (No.3, 300,000 copies sold) and “Killer” (No.4, 200,000 copies sold), he still regularly releases music in his native Germany and in other parts of Europe, where he has scored big hits such as “I Don’t Wanna Stop” and his cover of Olive’s 1996 hit “You’re Not Alone”.
“Two Worlds” (2000) is a two-disc album based upon the concept of different types of music for different moods, with titles such as “The World Of Movement” and “The Relaxing World”.
ATB’s latest hits include uplifting “Ecstasy” and chilling “Marrakech”, both from the album “No Silence” (2004) and also released as singles.
In 2005, ATB released “Seven Years”, a compilation of 20 songs, including many greatest hits such as “The Summer”, “Let U Go”, “Hold U”, “Long Way Home”, and “I Don’t Wanna Stop”. Additionally, “Seven Years includes six new tracks: “Humanity”; “Let U Go (2005 Reworked)”; “Believe in Me”; “Trilogie, Pt. 2”; “Take Me Over”; and “Far Beyond”. Many of ATB’s recent albums have featured vocals from Roberta Carter Harrison, singer for the Canadian duo Wild Strawberries.
His next album was co-written by vocalist Tiff Lacey. “Trilogy” was released in 2007. The release of his second single “Justify” was moved from November 2006 to 2007. The single “Renegade” was released on 2007-04-12 and features Heather Nova.
On 2009-05-01 ATB released his latest album “Future Memories” featuring Josh Gallahan (a.k.a. jades) and others. The first single release of Future Memories which was also released on May 1st 2009 features What About Us and L.A. Nights.
His highly anticipated "Distant Earth" album was released 29th April 2011 and was comprised of 2CDs including combined work with Armin Van Buuren, Dash Berlin, Melissa Loretta and Josh Gallahan. A 3rd CD was also produced with all the club versions of the first CD hits. Singles released from the album include Twisted Love ft. Cristina Soto and Gold ft. JanSoon.
To date André continues to maintain a connection with his fans through social networking sites and still goes on tour.
The Fields Of Love
ATB Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Have you ever felt the seeds of love?
Fields of love
is a poetic representation of the intense emotions experienced during the phase of love. The opening lyrics of the song carry rhetorical questions that ask the listeners about their perception and experience of love's essence. The fields of love represent the romanticism that surrounds the feeling of love. It's a place where lovers go to enjoy the awe-inspiring beauty of nature's purest representation of love. The singer is asking the listeners if they ever experienced the same intense feelings of love and witnessed the incredible beauty of love that he did. It shows that the singer is in love and that he is trying to share his feelings and perspectives with others through this song.
Moreover, the seeds of love refer to the early stages of a romantic relationship. Just like a seed, love starts to sprout in the early stages, and with proper nurturing, it grows into a beautiful plant. Similarly, in the early stages of a relationship, the love between two individuals is raw and pure. It's a stage where the couple is starting to learn about each other and deciding if they are meant to be together. The singer is asking whether the listeners have felt the same excitement and attraction towards someone they love. Thus, the lyrics provide an introspective view of love and the dynamics of a romantic relationship.

I remember being a little girl and listening to this CD while traveling with my parents... Seeing beautiful fields and the sea for the first time in my life, though the bus window... And dreaming, dreaming non-stop. Such beautiful memories.
