Factor B Podcast

Factor B (aka Highlandr) is leading the world as one of modern trance’s most compelling storytellers—an artist whose music is driven by integrity, passion, and a deep respect for the roots of the genre. Blending classic uplifting trance with cinematic depth and long-form progression, his sound is defined by honesty, melody, and an unwavering commitment to music that feels purposeful rather than disposable. That ethos has translated into major fan-voted success through A State of Trance. In 2021, Sea of Thoughts surged to #5 in the ASOT Countdown, marking an early breakthrough. Momentum continued with #3 Tune of the Year in 2022 for Other Side (Factor B’s In Loving Memory Remix), followed by a landmark #2 in the ASOT Top 50 of 2024 with The Girl With Her Head In The Clouds (Ellie’s Song)—a defining moment that firmly established him among the scene’s most respected artists. In 2025, he once again demonstrated consistency at the highest level with You’ll Miss Me When I’m Gone placing #5.
