Paul van Dyk – For An Angel

There are moments in our lives which holds the seal of eternity. They are everlasting due to their meaning and because of the timeless sense of wonderful they imprint in our being. Once encountered, they accompany us for the rest of our lives, emotionally holding us when needed, or waiting to be awaken, but never leaving our memory or senses, being part of ourselves forever.

Paul Van Dyk’s masterpiece, „For an Angel”, has certainly earned the best evoker status of these moments, for each and every one of the beautiful hearts resonating with this song.

For those wondering how this is possible, a reminder of the classical features „For An Angel” represents could be provided.
„For An Angel”, first released in 1994 (30 years ago), transcends its original context and time and remains relevant today, so much so that its simple introduction within a set at a concert for sure will pull out shouts of delight, goosebumps, applause, tears of joy and happy smiles on the faces of the ardent audience.

Its powerful impact on the electronic musical scene, its influence over three decades, its significance, as an essential part of the trance culture all over the world, are undeniable and so present, that one can hardly imagine a world of music without „For An Angel” shining upon it.

Moreover, „For An Angel” has an enduring magic which could not be matched over time, continuing to be performed, reinterpreted, covered, enjoyed by new public, as well as by the ones knowing it well enough to say that it is one of those miracles beautifying and inspiring their life.

This wonderful overload of inspiration born from a magical moment, as the author describes it, has generated so much love and feels so close to the audiences across generations, that its experience could be very well crowned as the ultimate celebration of joy and beauty of electronic music, connecting millions of people in the world.

Needless to say that „For An Angel” will always represent the essence of creativity and classical aesthetic, as well as grace in electronic music, and its author, the true king of this artistic realm.

On its 30’th anniversary, we can only say this: Thank you, PVD, for this true musical anthem! Looking forward to the celebration of its first centenary, when it would probably be loved as much as today, or even more.
