On the same day that ‘A State Of Trance Year Mix 2014’ (the 11th chapter of the now popular series) saw light for the first time, Armin van Buuren also received a 4x platinum award for over 200,000 copies sold of the complete ‘A State of Trance Year Mix 2004 -2013′ series.

Armin on the award: “It’s a lot of work to put the mix together each time, but it’s really cool that it’s apparently appreciated by so many people. I remember that Raymond van Vliet of Cloud 9 Music came to me with the idea of bringing out the mix. I thought he was crazy, and I thought he would never succeed in clearing all the tracks. I think it’s fantastic that we have already been able to bring out the A State Of Trance Year Mix for eleven years!”

Armin van Buuren, who is still one of the most successful DJs in the world (and is once again in the top 3 of the DJ Mag Top 100 this year), just mixed the eleventh edition, ‘A State Of Trance Year Mix 2014′. The record is a megamix of over 2 hours containing around 100 trance hits from the past year, tracks which were chosen by global listeners of Armin’s radio show on Radio 538, ‘A State Of Trance’ (ASOT). Armin supplemented these songs with his own favorite trance hits of 2014.
