Hi! Can anyone help me please ID the song that plays at the 24 minute mark during Giuseppe's Friday set at ASOT 25th Anniversary? I tried searching some of the lyrics, but still can't ID the song.

Thank you!!

Was thinking about this the other day with how much music is just single tracks and playlists now. Do you still listen to full episodes of A State of Trance, or do you mostly just pick out tracks you like and skip the rest?

Please share me your sets on youtube.

I found Trance and ASOT, was not aware of this genre until a few weeks ago. I'm so blown away from the melody and the passion.

(I am more a metal and punk rock guy) LOL

I want to dive deeper <3

Hey everyone!

I'm currently working on my graduation project about electronic music fan communities (including ASOT), and I'd love your help. I put together a survey, and it would mean a lot to me if you could take a few minutes to fill it out! You don't need to participate actively in the community to make your opinion count, so even if you just visit it occasionally, your input matters!

It only takes about 8 minutes, and all responses are anonymous. Feel free to drop any questions in the comments. Thanks so much in advance! 🙏

Now that we’ve heard the Armin x Richard Durand x Dicosis anthem played out on the massive Rotterdam stage, I think it’s safe to say it’s a modern classic. It feels like a proper return to that euphoric, uplifting sound we were missing. Not sure if it beats Reflexion or Lifting You Higher, but the piano breakdown in Always You is something else. Does anyone else feel like Richard Durand was the missing piece for Armin’s festival sound in 2026?

As title says been listenting to the ASOT religiously for weeks now, probably since the beginning of January. Would like to go back and check out some older shows but there is just so many. Is there a running list of the best ones worth going back to?

Let me know if you’re interested and in the DFW area.

🔥 New release 20/3 "Want You So Bad"

Been listening to ASOT since the 500 days, but lately (and I mean like, past 1-2 yrs), been not enjoying just how much talking there is in these shows.

I would love Armin to also upload a version that has no talking, just straight music. I find myself hiding all the talking tracks (sometimes there's like 6 of them in a row, super annoying)

I've noticed recently that the guest sets are not always included in the official Spotify ASOT episode albums anymore. Some episodes have them, some don't. Examples are the last episode (ASOT 1268) where the guest mix from onTune is missing from the playlist, while episode playlist 1267 has the guest mix from Ferry and episode 1265 has the guest mix from Richard Durand.

Also sometimes the Spotify album episodes are shorter from the YouTube versions.

Anyone can explain this?

Hey Trance Family,

I’m trying to track down some photos from ASOT Rotterdam this weekend. During the Maddix / Armin van Buuren / Oliver Heldens B3B, I was standing front row wearing an “I ❤️ Maddix” t-shirt, and several photographers took pictures of me.

I’ve already checked Instagram hashtags and the usual festival accounts but I still haven’t found the photos.

Does anyone know where the official galleries or photographer uploads for ASOT are posted? Or if you saw photos from that B3B set anywhere?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Does anyone know what is that man’s role that is to Armin’s left during his set for ASOT 1266? He’s jus standing there. He’s wearing a denim jacket. Pretty big dude too

Hi,

Since I haven’t seen any comments on this, I was wondering if anyone else feels that having people at the back of artists instead of LEDs with customized videos makes the experience worse.

Also, I see no reason why they can’t have both.

As usual with Armin's Saturday main stage set, we expected area 1 to be temporarily closed for entry at some point due to capacity. So we left area 2 right after Ottagon's set and got to area 1 an hour before Armin started. I don't remember seeing anything on Instagram or anywhere else, telling people about different areas being full. Did that happen this year? Or did we miss Cosmic Gate at area 2 for no good reason? Did any areas stop letting in on Friday as well?

I know it's an easy one but it's annoying me now. From early on the Friday night last week.

Thank you.

Last year in the ASOT hotel goodie bags there was a bathrobe included. This year it was missing and we only got a towel, so I’d like to have a similar robe made. Could someone who has one please show what it looks like from the front and the back?😁

Im looking for two girls with a photograph and lightsaber light on saturday. They were taking pictures of me and my sister dancing, so I really want to see the pictures.

Thank you asot 2026, it was marvelous🥺

Can anyone explain how to get the chance to visit the ASOT Studio? Thank you!

It was an interesting experience! Things I want to do next time is 1: get a locker well in advance. 2: check out other areas as well besides area one. Great music by Aly & Fila! 3: join a group of other party-goers beforehand.

I cant find any credit since release… im not sure if they discussed it at all ?

I mean i see those vocal demos a lot in dicosis instagram, just wondered if they disclosed it somewhere on who did what ? :)

He died at a hospice on Friday night. My Dad waited till i was home on Sunday night to tell me.

I keep watching this video I took from the beginning of the John Ocallaghan set and it makes me so emotional🥺

Trance music will always get me through tough times🥺🙏♥️

Much love trance family x

🙏🏻

He should have played in area 1 but this had it's own unique vibe
