Lately Armin has been writing the wildest garbage, but there was also a time when he released crazy good records. Here’s a four-hour mixtape about it, which probably won’t be liked by anyone, but you’ll learn a lot of new things about our hero.
Before becoming a trance deity and known to everyone, Armin was releasing good French/funky/disco house on tiny labels, experimenting with uplifting trance as well, which was gaining momentum. His hobby grew into a profession, and this genre became his guiding star. He should be given credit: having started in 2001 as the host of his own show on a local radio station, speaking only Dutch and then clumsy English, in 10-15 years, Armin brought his own A State of Trance to the top of the genre, became a number one DJ many times, created an influential label, got his own entourage, and also, thanks to his anthem In & Out of Love (which is not in this mix), he’s known even by those who have never been interested in electronic music. You can now track how trance music has changed through Armin’s shows, week by week. Not even mentioning the honourable title of proud son of his fatherland. And it’s all about the music that does pums-pums, it’s all about the records.
