      • Future is the ninth studio album of the music project Schiller created by the German electronic musician Christopher von Deylen. The album was released on February 26, 2016 (2016-02-26). On this album Schiller has collaborated with the singers Kêta, Arlissa, Emma Hewitt, Samu Haber, Sheppard Solomon, Maggie Szabo, Cristina Scabbia and Tawgs Salter and with Sharon Stone, who wrote the lyrics of "For You". The album reached in its first week number 1 of the German albums chart. This is Schiller's fifth number-1-album in Germany.
      It was released in different editions, including the limited "Ultra Deluxe Edition". It's the first studio album of Schiller with a title in English language. The cover art work includes pictures by photographer Philip Glaser. On May 26, 2016 (2016-05-26) the Standard Edition was released on Spotify.
      The album is something of a departure from Schiller's previous body of work, with a somewhat harsher and colder sound and style, and with more focus on synth pop than ambient soundscapes. It also features a number of vocalists that Schiller had not previously worked with, whilst regular vocalists from recent years do not appear at all.
      The music video of The Future I + II had its world premiere on December 26, 2015 (2015-12-26) on YouTube. The first single Paradise featuring Arlissa was released in February 2016 and the music video had its premiere on February 17, 2016 (2016-02-17).
      After the release of Opus in 2013, Schiller announced that there will be no release of a new studio album until 2016. For the production of the album von Deylen left Berlin and moved to California and spent some time in the Mojave Desert.
      Von Deylen describes his album as a movie soundtrack, which has to be listened as whole.
