DIGITAL RELEASE AVAILABLE ON MAY 26

THE DOUBLE-DISC SET FEATURES PvD CLASSICS, REMIXES AND BRAND NEW SINGLE "HOME"
LIVE ELECTRONIC MUSIC PERFORMER SET TO HIT 17 CITIES IN 17 DAYS ON U.S. 'VOLUME' TOUR

Throughout his unparalleled 15-year career in electronic dance music, PAUL VAN DYK has achieved what most musicians in any genre only dream of: a hugely successful recording career that has resulted in over three and a half million albums sold worldwide, a prestigious Grammy nomination, a high profile remixography that includes U2, Justin Timberlake, Depeche Mode and Britney Spears, multiple sold-out global tours and now his very own DJ iPhone and iPod App. Following the June 9 (retail) and May 26 (digital) release date announcement for his next album VOLUME (Ultra Records), the dance music trailblazer has now unveiled details about the package's track listing and U.S. tour.

VOLUME is a heavyweight two-disc anthology of PAUL VAN DYK's most memorable and requested releases of original songs from his studio albums 45 RPM (1994), Seven Ways (1996), Out There And Back (2000), the Grammy-nominated Reflections (2003) and In Between (2007), plus various remix productions. CD 1 is a mixed collection of his original works including "White Lies," featuring the Pussycat Dolls' Jessica Sutta, "Nothing But You" and "Time Of Our Lives" with Vega 4, whose lead singer Johnny McDaid also lends his vocals to the brand new song "Home" that was created specially for VOLUME. Also highlighted are VAN DYK's stellar hits "Forbidden Fruit" and "We Are Alive" that achieved worldwide chart success.

The set additionally includes a new mix by VAN DYK--as constantly requested by his fans--of his timeless classic "For An Angel." Also available to coincide with the release will be a remix EP of a number of new mixes by Spencer & Hill, Miika Kuisma, Filo and Peri, Dave Darrell and others of "For An Angel." CD 2 consists of his most popular remixes of artists such as U2, Depeche Mode, New Order, Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears. The complete track listing follows below.

In support of VOLUME, the live electronic music performer who's known for his creative on-the-spot mastery will embark on an intense tour, appearing in 17 cities in 17 days. The VOLUME tour kicks off June 11 in Scottsdale, AZ and will take VAN DYK throughout middle-America, making stops in such markets as Salt Lake City, Oklahoma City, Detroit, Chicago, Nashville and Atlanta. The leg wraps June 26 with a headlining spot at the Electric Daisy Carnival in downtown Los Angeles, the two-day festival where over 100,000 people are expected. Select dates prior to the tour will have VAN DYK hitting San Francisco and Las Vegas for headlining one-off Memorial Day weekend performances. The highly anticipated tour is one of the most sought-after tickets this summer.

Since announcing the PAUL VAN DYK iPhone Application, the YouTube link which depicts him demonstrating the different assets of the app has already received over 10,000 views. "What you have is different tools that ... are very, very helpful if you're a DJ," VAN DYK told Deanna Rilling of the Las Vegas Weekly (4/23/09) about the new technology. "Van Dyk explains that he didn't want a boring app that people lose interest in after a few minutes. 'I wanted to have something more than just a gadget,' he says. Van Dyk's app has BPM, decibel and frequency meters, plus a torch function to illuminate the booth in case a DJ loses a contact lens or drink ticket."
