After decades of success in the industry, Armin van Buuren could certainly rest on his accolades and an incredible back catalog of hits. Fortunately for fans, he thrives on breaking new ground and did so most recently at AMF 2025 alongside KI/KI.
Just one night after delivering their hard-hitting AMF 2025 anthem, Put Your Bassline, to streaming services, Armin van Buuren and KI/KI joined together for an incredible b2b set at the annual event. Alongside a stacked lineup featuring Hardwell, Sara Landry, John Summit, and many more, van Buuren and KI/KI celebrated their new collaboration together in one of the weekend’s most iconic moments. Discussing the work on the track, Armin said, “KI/KI and I come from different styles, but we share a passion for energy and progression. ‘Put Your Bassline’ captures that balance of something driving and direct, but with both our identities in it.” The two leaned into this energy for nearly an hour to the delight of the audience.
Now, fans can relive this epic moment between the trance icon and the rising star as the performance has been uploaded to YouTube. The set served as a revival of AMF’s II=I concept, which was first introduced in 2017 with Armin van Buuren sharing the stage with Hardwell. For his set with KI/KI, the pair opened with their latest release, Put Your Bassline before navigating a wide range of tracks from both of their arsenals. Whether fortunate enough to have experienced the performance first hand in Amsterdam this year, or having the first listen, it is clear that this stands out as one of the premier b2b sets of 2025.
