Suburban Train/Urban Train Explained

"Suburban Train" / "Urban Train" is a double A-side single by DJ Tiësto, from his debut album In My Memory. "Suburban Train" was produced by Kid Vicious (Ronald van Gelderen). The vocal version, titled "Urban Train", contains vocals by Kirsty Hawkshaw written by Kirsty and Tom Greenwood.^[1] The original single was released with remixes from German DJ Marc O'Tool, and English group Way Out West.

"Suburban Train" was mixed with Armin van Buuren's song "Yet Another Day" in a famous "Armin van Buuren Mash-Up" which is known officially as "Yet Another Suburban Train" or simply "Another Suburban Train".^[2]

"Suburban Train" is heavily based on Ronald van Gelderen's track "Re-Form", which was released in 2000 under the alias Kid Vicious along with a remix by Tiësto.^{[3] [4]}
