In case you didn’t know, trance is my all-time favorite genre of music. I can seriously listen to it all day. I do listen to all kinds of music, yes, including country and classical; but if given a choice, I’ll go with either trance or rock. It really puts me into “the zone” where I need to stay focus on a certain task like photo editing, coding, working out. And by working out I mean doing house chores and stuff 🙂

A few days before Christmas 2011, Armin Van Buuren released his A State of Trance episode 540, which is a compilation of the top 20 most popular songs in 2011. I’ve been listening to the episode every single day ever since. Below are my favorite tracks from the compilation. This makes me want to go to EDC in Vegas this year. Who else is going?
