Well that certainly BITES....

But then, I'm one of those listeners that d/l the sets and listens to them in my own time.
I'm sure with AvB's credibility someone will snap him up and another source will arise.
Seems my thoughts were correct...taken from the AvB website...

blah :P people don't you understand... its all about commercial trance and making money - ASOT was a pure advertisement for Armin's Label,thats it - i guess they didn't agreed on the price with ID&T
this sucks.
These things happened thursday:
- There was NO ASOT 183 thursday. Instead of that ID&T rebroadcasted ASOT 175.
- Still unknown if ASOT is gonna continue in it's original name.
- The format (2 hours: New Tunes + Non Stop Mix) might be there no more.
- Most likely Armin is gonna do a 1 hour set on Thursdays from 23:00 till 00:00 CET.
- Still unknown if this is weekly or occasionaly.
- ID&T said that next week Armin will be back between 23:00 till 00:00 CET

wow this is amazing
watch that u dont get bumped paul 
You realize that if that actually happends all of TOTA will be camping outside the studio
...screw that, we'll be storming the studio...
And then we'll have an after-party at teh guv 
This is messed up...ID&T after so many successful years of EDM support and sponsoring are pulling the plug....First they shutdown the record label and now ASOT...Whats next??? ... Their corporate priorities are changing drastically....

I have a feeling that paul doesnt mean bringing Armin here physically on a weekly basis, although i wish i was wrong!
it just doesnt seem practical, its a lot of extra travel!
This..... is the saddest day of my life

| Hey everybody, I'm actually still on holiday as we speak but I got quite a few worrying messages about my radioshow. no more?? I don't think so!! Here's where we stand: Before I left for Australia I had a meeting with the radio people and they simply stated they wanted A STATE OF TRANCE to continue, in my face. I prepared all radioshows for my absense like i always do (including the YEARMIX which took me two weeks productiontime). I get to Australia only to hear that the show is discontinued, including a beautiful recording of my Sydney NYE set (which was supposed to be ASOT 183). The last rating showed that ASOT had 6,3% marketshare, which makes the cancellation of the show quite hard to understand. But then again, it's not my station, it's not my money, this is something we have to deal with. But it does feel like a stab in the back and a big disrespect for all the years of free work. I do want to thank ID&T for all the freedom they have given me over the years. The good news is however, we have SEVERAL options to choose from. So far there has been SERIOUS interest from MAJOR stations in Holland and all around the world. It's quite luxurious actually. And the reactions from the people when they heard the show wasn't there (the phone at Armada rang the WHOLE week) was really a nice thing to hear...The most important thing for me now is to think what I want with the show. It's been 3 1/2 years in running now, (the longest on ID&T), the music has changed and meanwhile a lot of people started shows that look awefully like ASOT (which is definitely not a bad thing!). I think it's a good idea to look back and consider the future. Personally, the XXL shows were always my favorites and I loved the live aspect of it all. On the other hand, mostly two full workingdays a week were spend in searching new tracks for the show and I often drove to the studio in Amsterdam thinking: why the hell am I doing this? The fanbase of the show kept the show running so far and kept me awake however and is more important than anything else. So, what do you want? An English version of the show? More livesets? A new name for the show? A new broadcast time? ASOT is still here, we just need to think what we want with the future. Armin van Buuren |
Good to hear Armin's side of things. I also like how he is asking his fans for input about the show and what direction it should go.
