Armin van Buuren has shared a new mix album celebrating 25 years of A State Of Trance.
Out today (5th June), the 31-track release features a curated selection of tracks hand-picked by the Dutch DJ and producer, tracing the evolution of the long-running radio show and events brand.
Featured tracks on ‘A State of Trance 25 Years: Selected Highlights’ include Ben Gold’s ‘Rest of Our Lives’, Above & Beyond’s ‘Good For Me’, ‘Big Sky’ by John O’Callaghan and Audrey Gallagher and GAIA’s ‘Tuvan’.
Elsewhere, the mix album includes new remixes from artists including Andrew Rayel, Matt Fax, and Dan Harrison. The ASOT 950 anthem ‘Let The Music Guide You’, produced by van Buuren and remixed by ReOrder, also features, with the original released as a standalone single yesterday (Thursday 4th June).
The release marks the latest stage in the 25th anniversary celebrations, following a three-part mix that landed last month. Meanwhile, in March, van Buuren told DJ Mag he was planning to take the brand across the Atlantic for the first-ever A State of Trance festival on US soil.
