Armin van Buuren pres. « The Orb » - Zoa City

On 11 July 2026, Armin van Buuren brings his project The Orb to the Dolder Kunsteisbahn in Zurich. The Leiden‑born producer and DJ has been synonymous since the late ’90s with melodic, progressive trance drawing on elements of uplifting, house and EDM. His weekly radio show A State of Trance shapes the dramaturgy of his sets: clearly drawn tension arcs, carefully placed breaks, vocal moments, then longer instrumental phases where melodies can breathe. The Orb digs deep into his own catalogue and his many collaborations, from early tracks to more recent chapters such as Balance or Feel Again. Expect a set that navigates between catchy hooks and a deeper groove, with measured build‑ups, fresh edits and unreleased IDs. Not a nostalgic look back, but an update of his signature: precise mixing, clear harmonies and a flow that brings trance into the present without losing its emotional edge. A focused journey through the facets that have been shaping Armin van Buuren’s sound for years.
