Just like *[Two Worlds](/source/Two_Worlds_(ATB_album))* (2000) and *[Trilogy](/source/Trilogy_(ATB_album))* (2007) before it, this album also features two [CDs](/source/Compact_Disc). The first CD consists of dance songs, while the second one features chill-out tunes. Similarly to *Trilogy*, *Future Memories* also features 26 tracks in total and is released in two different versions: a normal one with two CDs, and a limited edition, which includes a DVD. On the iTunes version of the album there are two bonus tracks, a full-length club remix of "L.A. Nights" and a 12-minute minimix featuring most songs from the album. This minimix was used to promote the album on [YouTube](/source/YouTube). ## Overview ATB made almost all announcements concerning this new album on his [MySpace](/source/MySpace) blog. The first thing he said was that the album would not be promoted in the old-fashioned way, and a [single](/source/Single_(music)) would not be released before the album. Instead, there would be three tracks released at the same time (two of which are "What About Us" and "L.A. Nights") to represent the main album, and all three of them were going to have their own music videos. Also, four tracks on the album were going to have more than 160 [beats per minute](/source/Beats_per_minute) (bpm), rare in ATB's songs, but they were not anything close to the [hardcore](/source/UK_Hardcore) genre.[1] The reason for some of the songs' high bpm was that for the first time in ATB's repertoire, he has incorporated [drum and bass](/source/Drum_and_bass) elements into some of the songs such as "What About Us" and "My Everything". The opening to the song "Gravity" is similar melodically to the opening track on ATB's first album *[Movin' Melodies](/source/Movin'_Melodies)*, entitled "The First Tones". On 30 March 2009 ATB published a preview on YouTube that featured 10 selected tracks from the album, including "What About Us", "My Everything", "Summervibes with [9PM](/source/9pm_(Till_I_Come))" and others. Many singers and artists collaborated with ATB on this album, including Josh Gallahan, Haley Gibby (from Summer of Space), Betsie Larkin, Aruna, [Tiff Lacey](/source/Tiff_Lacey), Roberta Carter-Harrison (from [Wild Strawberries](/source/Wild_Strawberries_(band))), [Apple&Stone](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Apple%26Stone&action=edit&redlink=1), Jades and Flanders.[2] ## Track listing ATB announced the official track list on 27 March 2009 on his MySpace blog.[3] Future Memories – CD 1 No. Title Writer(s) Length 1.
