Armin van Buuren

It takes little to recognize that Armin van Buuren is one of the world’s biggest DJs and producers in electronic music for over twenty years. His life-long dedication to the scene has earned him a Grammy® nomination for ‘This Is What It Feels Like’ (feat. Trevor Guthrie) and saw him release global hit singles such as ‘Blah Blah Blah’, ‘Wild Wild Son’, ‘Therapy’, ‘Sex, Love & Water’, ‘Sunny Days’, ‘I Need You’ and ‘Another You’. Additionally, he claimed the number one spot in the annual DJ Mag Top 100 DJs poll for an unprecedented five times, contributing to the nineteen consecutive top 5 spots to date (the most recent being a #4 in the DJ Mag Top 100 DJs poll of 2020). On October 25, 2019, Armin van Buuren released his seventh artist album, ‘Balance’.

His two-hour radio show, A State of Trance (ASOT), is broadcast weekly from his own radio studio in the Armada Music HQ in Amsterdam to over 44 million listeners in more than 80 countries, as well as online via audio and video live stream on YouTube, Facebook and Twitch. It shows the magnitude of ASOT, which has grown from a small radio show into a complete dance music brand, with stages and events all over the world.

Armin van Buuren has launched several ‘Armin Only’ world tours throughout the years, including the ones based on his albums (‘Imagine’ in 2008, ‘Mirage’ in 2010, ‘Intense’ in 2013 and ‘Embrace’ in 2016) and ‘The Best Of Armin Only’ in 2017. In May 2021, one year later than originally planned due to the Corona pandemic, Armin van Buuren will play his most personal and intimate live shows yet through four sold-out shows in the Ziggo ‘This Is Me’.
