"Blue Fear" is an instrumenal composition by Dutch disc jockey and producer Armin. It was initially released on 13 October 1997 as 12" vinyl in the Netherlands by Cyber Records. It is the first track from Armin van Buuren which reached a significant success. The single was rereleased on 16 August 2004 by Nebula as the fifth and final single from Armin's first studio album, 76.

Background and release

At the moment of the release of the track, van Buuren was 19 years old and he was still living with his parents in Leiden. He created "Blue Fear" in his bedroom with a sampler bought with his own pocket money. In 2020, during an episode of A State of Trance, van Buuren explained to Ruben de Ronde the context of production of the track : “I was bullied by a couple of guys and i was afraid to go outside, so i was afraid of the ‘blue’, afraid of the light of the blue skies. I got over that, thank god, but yeah... That's the true story.”

Music video

A music video was realised by Ciro Ayala with the actress Calina Chan for the track 12 years after its official release. It was published on 23 November 2009 by Armada Music's Youtube channel.
