Armin van Buuren Releases ‘A State of Trance Ibiza 2024’: Marking a Decade of Iconic Ibiza-Inspired Mix Albums
August 30, 2024 – Today, just two days before he kicks off of his five-show summer residency on Sunday’s at Ushuaïa Ibiza, Armin van Buuren has released the tenth Ibiza-themed instalment of his globally acclaimed A State of Trance mix album series. This tenth edition continues the tradition of the three-part mix series, capturing the electrifying spirit of the White Isle and bringing it to listeners around the world.
‘A State of Trance Ibiza 2024 (Mixed by Armin van Buuren)’ is a three-part journey through Ibiza's diverse soundscape. Divided into On The Beach, In The Club, and Who’s Afraid Of 138?!, the mix album captures the essence of the island’s music scene, soundtracking the serene shorelines and breathtaking sunsets, as well as the exhilarating nightlife. Featuring forty-two tracks, it includes contributions from renowned artists such as Agents Of Time, Aly & Fila, David Forbes, Gabry Ponte, Heløwed, Joris Voorn, KI/KI, and Mauro Picotto.
“I've been a huge fan of Ibiza for many years, and I know the island inside and out, but I still find new ways to fall in love with it all over again,” says Armin van Buuren. “It's not just a hotspot for new music, but also a place where people create unforgettable moments and lifelong friendships. Celebrating ten years of Ibiza-themed albums is incredible. There are a lot of new songs on there that I've only played in my sets so far. It feels good to get it out right before my residency starts. I hope you love it!”
