An early ASOT episode featuring Ferry Corsten, useful for the 2002 transition into the radio-show era.
This 2002 A State Of Trance entry captures Ferry Corsten / Armin van Buuren during a key stretch of classic trance history. Ferry Corsten and Armin van Buuren mark two sides of the Dutch trance boom: production-led anthems and radio-led curation. A State Of Trance became a central radio archive for melodic trance, tracking the sound as it moved from club records into a global community. Kept here as a reference point for the archive, it helps show how the sound evolved in pacing, melody and club context.
