2-Myon & Shane 54 Summer of Love mix
"It doesn't take much for a relationship to slip out of balance, but once it does it can be tough to get it back. "Every Little Beat" is a song about that moment when you realise you've lost the magic and maybe even started acting to keep things normal: the other person is invariably over compensating for your withdrawal by being extra loving but of course that just makes it worse. The balance is lost. Based on all too real events, "Every Little Beat" sounds very much like how it was written - it is a very subtle but emotional production, I think." Above & Beyond, 2011
Featuring the vocals of Richard Bedford (the voice of hits like "Sun & Moon" and "Thing Called Love"), "Every Little Beat" is the latest single from Above & Beyond's acclaimed "Group Therapy" album.
The tale of a relationship where the love is unbalanced between the two sides, "Every Little Beat" is a string-laden electronic ballad that works as both a beautifully constructed club tr ack and reflective sofa song. A blend of French house grooves, poignant lyrics and emotive strings, "Every Little Beat" is the perfect example of Above & Beyond's ability to write musical, meaningful electronic music like few other acts around.
In a year where their remixes of acts like Hybrid, BT and Andain have taken their sound to another level, Myon & Shane 54 were an obvious choice for the remix - and deliver an energised peak-time remix.
With a throbbing three-am groove and a more haunting take on Bedford's vocals, the Hungarian duo's remix comes alive in a bright, energised breakdown that surges with bright, euphoric synths and has been a staple crowd-pleaser in Above & Beyond's recent festival sets.
Dimitri Kechagias review: Above and Beyond is a huge capital in the world of EDM. A driving Force that pushes music boundaries forward! I can not even imagine trance music as it is today without Above & Beyond and their baby labels Anjunabeats and Anjunadeep contribution. I loved the spanish version of this beauty with Miguel Bose on vocals with stunning music video that you can watch for days on repeat mode and never getting bored of it. I'm glad that finally the English version entitled Every Little Beat is out with Richard Bedford on vocals who really adds class and personality on this fantastic trancer. Deep meaningful lyrics and his performance is always right at the top making you feel relaxed and lifted in seconds. It starts with orchestral intro and then goes full on melodic progressive trance for those get together on the dancefloor moments. Myon & Shane 54 who have the midas touch service us their electro prog trance version that is pure quality as well! Of course their remix is faster and bangier perfect for those hands in the air moments. Outstanding breakdown and lovely jobbly groovy electro trance beats for an unforgetable emotional ride. 2 weeks number 1 in my weekly trance chart and i hope the music video to be ready soon. I would love to see this record Christmas UK Top 40 number 1. Love IT!
