Search - Armin Van Buuren :: State of Trance Yearmix 2009

Doesn't do it for me

"I'm absolutely hooked to the radio show, and frankly this mix doesn't do justice to it. The mixing part is so amateurish, I couldn't believe it's AvB. It was so smooth and energized in the previous ones, it was a pleasure for about 2hrs. But the 2009 edition is just a vague mix.



The CD1 is a little on the mellow side, which I normally do not expect from AvB; especially when you run through 40+ tracks. Also, the gradual feeling of sinking into the music is totally missing. Try giving it a listen before spending [...] bucks on it, samples should be out soon on amazon."

Great combination of sounds

"This cd combines vocal/progessive trance with deep melodies in a phenomenal 2 disc mix. Literally very easy to listen to from start to finish, and almost every other track makes you look at the title to download the full song. Very solid mix overall, a few sample tracks for you to look up on youtube before purchasing would be Let It All Out Ronski Speed remix, Kidsos remix, Symfo Sunrise festival mix, there are a few ATB sirens of the sea remixes, Home, on a good day, its all great look into it. If you're an avid trance fan I would say this is a key purchase, even if just for the genuine track listing on the back of the dual cd cover."

Excellent Yearmix

"This yearmix is incredible! Although i had already heard most of the songs throughout the year, this is an excellent recap. The songs blend perfectly together and the mixing is flawless and addictive. Best of the best, Very highly recommend it! Armin never disappoints!"
