Armin van Buuren Further Perfects Sonic Blend with Twenty-Second Mix Album: ‘A State of Trance 2025’
The Mix Album Continues the Three-Mix Format: ‘On the Beach’, ‘In the Club’ and ‘Who’s Afraid of 138?!’
March 28, 2025 – For well over two decades now, Armin van Buuren’s ‘A State of Trance’ mix album series has been a staple in dance music land. And much like his globally esteemed radio show itself, the sound of the mix albums evolves with each passing year, reflecting the Dutchman’s explorative nature and the ever-changing scene itself. This year, the mix series walks further down that path to deliver a trifecta of sound, guiding listeners through trance’s full spectrum—from sunlit melodies to peak-time intensity: ‘A State of Trance 2025’.
Across its three parts and 43 tracks, the new mix album offers the very best of modern trance, from the sea-side grooves of ‘On The Beach’—with tracks from Claptone x Chicane, OTTAGON (Giuseppe Ottaviani) and AVIRA—to the club-driven energy of ‘In The Club’ at the hands of Andrew Bayer, Ferry Corsten, Richard Durand and Gabry Ponte x Jerome Isma-Ae. With Armin van Buuren and Rob Swire’s show-stopping new collaboration and the official anthem for A State of Trance 2025, the energy reaches full throttle with ‘Who’s Afraid of 138?!’, the third mix—a no-holds-barred adrenaline rush spearheaded by Sander van Doorn, Orjan Nilsen x Mark Sixma, Oliver Heldens & Armin van Buuren and Mauro Picotto.
As fans have come to expect and cherish, this year’s mix album is, once again, packed with exclusive tracks, sought-after IDs and brand-new collaborations. It’s the ultimate soundtrack for dance music fans, carrying them from sunrise bliss to afterhours madness, with the sonic signature of Armin van Buuren himself and his celebrated A State of Trance brand.
