It's true that to most of us the addition of a third day for EDC NY seemed like an afterthought - an entire stage had been from the lineup and the addition of Armin Van Buuren as the closer felt forced. We asked ourselves "Wouldn't two closing sets cheapen the Armin experience?" The answer after two days at EDC NY is a resounding "HELL NO!" Armin Van Buuren is the world's biggest DJ for a reason - he is one of the few left whose sets are true artistry. He masterfully mixes tracks to create an atmosphere rather than a [...]

After listening to this week's Drop, it is hard to imagine anyone thinking of EDM as a singular genre, or even 128 as a sole representative. These two Philly homies are presenting the full range of the 128 BPM spectrum. After experiencing the power of tempo, 24 year old, Canadian Sensation ImanoS takes over the boards and [...]
Hey everybody welcome to another edition of Robot Music. Before we get to the music, I'd like to say congrats to any recent collegiate graduates reading and wish you well in the future! Hitting your ears today is going to be some fresh new tunes from the likes of Pretty Lights, Laidback Luke, Armin Van Buuren, and a new take on a Flosstradamus tune provided by the one and only D.Veloped. First I'm going to introduce you to a new song by, who most would say, is the king of trance, Armin Van Buuren . [...]
The potential to achieve the absolute best in what you can do each and every time, may well have just been achieved in regards to Ryan Henderon's latest Project 46 remix. Using the already familiar and distinctive main vocal that envelops Deadmau5's Original in 'The Veldt,' Ryan retains the lead vocal in parts but opts for some flowery & pretty chord-punches that sound like your heart and air columns are gasping for their last breath. On 'The Rift,' we are surrounded by all the happy people in world jumping as [...]
"We Are Here To Make Some Noise" is less of a title and more of a statement. Armin van Buuren reigning king of trance, released today an attractive orginal that will appeal to the progressive house listeners as well. Following the overwhelmingly successful A State Of Trance 550, Mr Buuren is releasing a fantastic track for the summer parties and festivals to come. A much harsher sound than what we are used to, drilling down with heavy low-end growls but still sustaining the loud and energetic synths that hypnotize the mind to keep dancing. Armin [...]
Armada's Youtube page may have more advertisements than Comedy Central after midnight, but god dangit this song is no average Armin. Mr. van Buuren, the wily veteran he has become, is well aware that festival season approaches, and this track has been finely tuned to induce jumping, dancing, and all other kinds of rhythmically inscrutable [...]
It's not a casual occurrence for the godfather of trance to release his own singles, but today, Armin van Buuren has done just that. Following a successful celebration of A State Of Trance 550, which captivated audiences in every corner of the world, Armin is taking his talents to the summer and beyond with his latest hit "We Are Here To Make Some Noise." The trance anthem is built upon contagious drums and hypnotizing synths along with his signature chord work to form a spellbinding melody. "We Are Here To Make Some Noise" is business as usual for Armin and [...]

On a rainy day in London we with put through two songs from Calvin Harris and Morgan Page that refuse to go away – but steady over a forecast which renditions in some drumtastic programming from Pickster One's Santigold re-rub.

Armin Van Buuren recently spoke with DJ Mag about everything from summer in Ibiza to ASOT 550 to the current state of EDM. The interview is extensive, but like Pete Tong's candid piece for Miami Music Week , it's quite revealing. Armin rightfully recognizes that EDM has become "the 2012 pop music," and credits social media and YouTube — along with the rise of dubstep Stateside — for making it viral and giving it the radio play to hit critical mass. The interviewer asks if the "drive towards the big room synths, [...]
