Armin van Buuren delivers 21st edition of A State of Trance Mix Album series
As an industry icon and seemingly endless source of output and content, Armin van Buuren has now released the latest mix in one of his most celebrated series. Now in its 21st edition, A State Of Trance 2024 (Mixed by Armin van Buuren) continues the tradition of collecting the biggest hits in trance in one place.
No artist or outlet devotes more time and energy to celebrating trance music than Armin van Buuren and his weekly A State of Trance mix show. The weekly radio show and subsequent live events throughout the year give van Buuren a chance to celebrate the music he loves and helped pioneer. With the latest collected mix album, the series moves sternly into the third decade since its inception. He has continued to build upon his recent decision to split the annual A State of Trance Mix album into three distinct collections, On The Beach, In The Club, and Who’s Afraid of 138?! to represent all the styles and moods that he celebrates throughout the year.
“I’m amazed at the quality of music being put out every year; it’s what drives me to keep compiling these albums, even after two-plus decades. Trance music has become so widespread and compatible with other genres that I’m having both a very fun and very difficult time narrowing down the shortlist to “only” 42 tracks. That’s why I love creating these mix albums. Three hours of the best trance music, from me to you. Enjoy!”
– Armin van Buuren
For A State Of Trance 2024 (Mixed by Armin van Buuren), the Dutch DJ has worked hard to narrow down the years releases to just 42 tracks. Featuring his own work as well as music from the likes of HI-LO, Ilan Bluestone, Andrew Rayel, ARTBAT, and more, fans will have a well-varied collection to digest. As Armin van Buuren continues to look forward, delivering new productions and helping to provide a platform for established and rising artists, the A State Of Trance 2024 Mix album is a great moment for him to reflect on his continued commitment to the electronic music community.
