Perpetuous Dreamer
Perpetuous Dreamer was an alias of Armin van Buuren, which is known for the songs "Future Fun-Land", "Dust.wav", and "Dub.wav". These songs have also been produced in various remixes. One of the group's releases, entitled, "The Sound of Goodbye" went to number one the US dance chart.[1] This is one of Armin's early aliases (something very common in the trance genre). This alias has been halted and only had three releases to date in which Armin collaborated with a few artists. Armin now has only two other active aliases known as Gaia and Rising Star. The alias might be revived by Armin in the future, however it seems unlikely.

The Sound of Goodbye
This was the biggest Perpetuous Dreamer release. It is important to note that this track was not released under its original Perpetuous Dreamer mix. Instead Armin van Buuren released it as a variety of remixes. He himself put out two remixes of this track known as the "Armin van Buuren Tribal Feel Remix" and the "Rising Star Remix".
This track was later re-released under the name Armin van Buuren - The Sound of Goodbye. There is a common misconception that the Simon & Shaker Remix is the original mix of the song.
This track contains uncredited vocals from Elles de Graaf.
