Arguably one of the greatest body of works to ever be produced, Armin van Buuren iconic ‘Mirage’ album has turned 15 years old.

Solidifying his status in the dance scene to even further heights, legendary DJ and record producer Armin van Buuren released his ‘Mirage’ album back in September of 2010, and as time has progressed, it still remains as one of the most iconic body of works to have ever been produced. The fourth studio album of his career at the time, ‘Mirage’ can be seen as way more than just a collection of tracks, with the ASOT boss showcasing to the world the greatness of his musical capabilities, through a genre-blending project that defied, defies and will continue to defy time.

Creating a movement of its own, ‘Mirage’ would go onto not only shape van Buuren’s legacy as the greatest of trance acts to ever exist, but also, allow for dance music lovers to truly experience the raw emotions and passion that can derive directly from one or more of their favourite genre(s). From timeless anthems in the form of ‘Not Giving Up On Love’ and ‘Full Focus,’ to the emotionally charged track that is ‘Feel So Good,’ this album brought together elements of trance, orchestra and pure vocal power, resulting of course, in the most breathtaking of end products.

Fast-forward to now, and with fifteen years having passed since the release of ‘Mirage,’ van Buuren continues to enhance his legacy with each and every one of his endeavours, however, when taking a minute to look back at everything he has achieved, and will continue to achieve for that matter, ‘Mirage’ will always hold a spot as one of the greatest body of works that he has ever created. Nostalgic but truly invigorating, be sure to reminisce of the past through this trip to memory lane, and whilst doing so, don’t forget to mention which track(s) from the album still ignite all the feels, even fifteen years later!
