Armin van Buuren debuts ASOT 2027 anthem during ASOT 1300 marathon

Armin van Buuren has played the ASOT 2027 anthem for the first time during a 13-hour marathon broadcast of the 1300th episode of A State of Trance, aired live from Amsterdam during Amsterdam Dance Event, according to We Rave You. The track was played as an untitled ID.

Armin had already teased it at his show in New York and during his back-to-back set with Benwal at Gashouder the night before the broadcast. The title and release details have not been confirmed, but the lyrics include the line “into the unknown”.

The new anthem arrives as A State of Trance marks 25 years. Recent anthems include “Always You” with Richard Durand and Dicosis (2026), “Is It Beautiful?” with Ben Hemsley and Lucy Pullin (2025), “Destination” with Ferry Corsten, Rank 1 and Ruben de Ronde (2024) and “Reflexion” with Cosmic Gate (2023). In 2022, “Turn The World Into A Dancefloor” served as the ASOT 1000 anthem.

Looking ahead to 2027, ASOT Rotterdam has revealed its first wave of acts, and A State of Trance makes its US festival debut in Los Angeles in June 2027. Also during ADE, Armin played a sold-out AMF at the Johan Cruijff ArenA.

Armin van Buuren is a Dutch trance DJ and record producer, born in 1976 in Leiden. In October mbuzz reported that AMF 2026 had sold out, with around 40,000 people expected, and that Jean-Michel Jarre brought him out on ADE's opening night to perform “Stardust” together.
