Above & Beyond’s 2011 has been all about one thing – landmarks. In January they celebrated 10 years of their Anjunabeats label, before March’s 200th single release on the imprint; the Beatport #1 hit “Rebound” by Arty & Mat Zo.
In April, Jono, Tony and Paavo then embarked on their biggest ever tour of the US with a road blocked 22-date stretch, including two sold out shows at LA’s legendary Hollywood Palladium, with the first selling out in just 90 minutes - a new record for the legendary venue.
After seeing their “Sun & Moon” anthem playlisted by BBC Radio 1 and reach the top 15 of the Billboard Dance Charts in the US, the trio were ready to unveil their second artist album – “Group Therapy.” Earning them a cover star interview with DJ Magazine and described as “stadium dance with an incredibly personal feel” and “artist album of the year” in a Mixmag review, the string-laden album has been praised by critics and fans alike for its emotive, song-based electronic music.
In such a fast moving year, it seems fitting to close on a familiar totem pole in Above & Beyond’s annual calendar; their Anjunabeats Volume series. Capturing the sound of the label, Anjunabeats Volume 9 offers 2 CDs of predominantly unreleased, exclusive tracks from the label.
"Anjunabeats Volume 9" mixed by Above & Beyond will now be released on Sunday 6th November. More info will follow soon.
