Armind

Armind is a Dutch electronic dance music sub-label operating under Armada Music, the independent dance label founded by Armin van Buuren, Maykel Piron and David Lewis. As the first imprint established within the Armada group, Armind occupies a special position in the company's history and is described by Armada as a recognizable and beloved label, symbolized by its trademark 'Armind Angel'. The imprint is curated by Armin van Buuren himself, who selects what Armada characterizes as the best and most original tunes, often instant classics or future favorites, and who has chosen Armind as the home for all of his own productions. Musically, Armind is focused primarily on trance and house, with a strong association with progressive trance anthems. Its very first release, 'Motorcycle – As The Rush Comes', became one of the most cherished trance tracks ever released, setting the tone for a catalog that includes big monster tunes such as 'Synergy – Hello Strings' and 'Mark Otten – So Serene', alongside exclusive remix packs and releases deemed worthy of the 'Armind halo'. The label has released music by Armin van Buuren, Ben Gold, Andrew Rayel, Alexander Popov, Ørjan Nilsen and many other leading producers in the global trance scene. As part of Armada Music, Armind benefits from the infrastructure of what Armada describes as the biggest independent dance music label in the world, with a catalog of over 50,000 tracks, more than one billion streams per month, and offices in Amsterdam (HQ), New York, London and Laren (NL). Armada's roster includes Armin van Buuren, ARTY, D.O.D, Eelke Kleijn, Jan Blomqvist, Joris Voorn, KI/KI, Lilly Palmer, Loud Luxury, Sunnery James & Ryan Marciano, THEMBA and Yulia Niko, and the group operates its own club, radio studio and multiple production studios, as well as the producer platform Armada University. Within this ecosystem, Armind functions as a prestige trance imprint, carrying the personal curation of Armin van Buuren and a catalog oriented toward high-quality, anthemic electronic music.

Armind was founded by Armin van Buuren as the first imprint of Armada Music, the independent dance label he established together with Maykel Piron and David Lewis. Because it was the first label to be launched within the Armada group, Armind holds a special place in the company's history and is described by Armada as a recognizable and beloved imprint, distinguished by its trademark 'Armind Angel'. From the outset, Armin van Buuren took personal charge of the label's curation, selecting the best and most original tunes and choosing Armind as the home of all of his own productions. The label's very first release was 'Motorcycle – As The Rush Comes', which went on to become one of the most cherished trance tracks ever released. This early success established Armind's identity as a home for anthemic, high-quality trance and progressive music. The catalog grew to include big monster tunes such as 'Synergy – Hello Strings' and 'Mark Otten – So Serene', as well as exclusive remix packs and releases that Armada considers worthy of the 'Armind halo'. Over the years, Armind has released music by many of the biggest producers in the world, including Armin van Buuren, Ben Gold, Andrew Rayel, Alexander Popov and Ørjan Nilsen. By 2015, the label's regular roster also included artists such as ALPHA 9, Arty, BT, Fatum, Gaia, Genix, KhoMha, Luke Bond, Mark Sixma, MaRLo, Omnia, Radion6, Rodg, Shogun, Simon Patterson, Super8 & Tab, Thomas Gold, Vini Vici, Willem de Roo, W&W and Yoel Lewis. As part of Armada Music, Armind operates within a group that has grown into what Armada describes as the biggest independent dance music label in the world, with a catalog of over 50,000 tracks built up across more than twenty years of specialized dance music exploitation. Armada Music represents artists such as Armin van Buuren, ARTY, D.O.D, Eelke Kleijn, Jan Blomqvist, Joris Voorn, KI/KI, Lilly Palmer, Loud Luxury, Sunnery James & Ryan Marciano, THEMBA and Yulia Niko, and amasses more than one billion streams per month, with airplay on leading radio outlets such as BBC Radio 1 and Sirius XM and top positions in the world's most notable charts. Significant group milestones include Armin van Buuren's Grammy nomination for 'This Is What It Feels Like' and two tracks surpassing one billion streams on Spotify: Loud Luxury and Brando's 'Body' and Lost Frequencies' 'Are You With Me'.
