DJ Aquana's "Time To Say Goodbye": A Dance Tribute to Love, Loss, and Resilience

thisaktmusic

3 Aug, 2025

Taking you straight from Hoensbroek, Netherlands, DJ Aquana delivers a new chapter in his Ghost Story collection, the deeply moving "Time To Say Goodbye". A dance track based on love, loss, heartbreak, healing, and hope, this is not just a song, but an intimate relationship with his grief in the voice of a survivor and the spirit of an artist who was a true witness to the baggage of goodbye.

Written in tribute to his wife, who lost her remarkable 7-year battle with cancer, this song lets DJ Aquana release his grief through his creative interpretation of life.

The production, crafted in his private home studio, blends authentic lyrical emotion with upbeat dance energy, pulling together Akai beat taps, midi keyboard melodies, and the cinematic journey of storytelling. Doused in Avicii influence, the dance music track is both party-ready and loaded with real-life experiences.

Even though "Time To Say Goodbye" invites you to dance, it also permits you to feel reflective. It's a tune that allows for movement, even if it's engaged with your soul, as your feet just have to tap. More than a song, the song honors you to love deeply while being present in life's moments that are getting shorter by the day.
