The London Sessions
Tiësto’s seventh album is a collage of glossy dance-pop collaborations that feature some of the UK’s finest vocalists, including Becky Hill (“Nothing Really Matters,” “Over You\"), Mabel (“God Is a Dancer”), and Rita Ora (“Ritual”). Despite its title, the project isn’t exclusively British; Snoop Dogg, Post Malone, and The Kid Daytona also make appearances on tracks like “On My California” and “Jackie Chan” that feel more Hollywood than London. Even though the album emphasizes Tiësto’s pop prowess, the Dutch producer is first and foremost a house head, and his longtime fans will particularly appreciate “Insomnia,” the adrenaline-pumping club cut that relies as heavily on rhythm, tension, and release as it does on Violet Skies’ soprano.
