"Love Is Not Enough" is a song from the heart about the challenges in a relationship that can arise outside of a core feeling of love for someone. Love is not enough to be with someone - a relationship needs to "work" day to day." Jono Grant, Above & Beyond

A poignant tale of a deep love that wasn't quite to be, Above & Beyond's "Love Is Not Enough" (feat. Zoë Johnston) is the latest single from the widely acclaimed album "Group Therapy" - last year described by Mixmag as "artist album of the year".

Following last week's main release, we have now released two contrasting remix packages - covering everything from big room house to drum & bass and dubstep.

Maor Levi & Bluestone add their own big room, groove-fuelled trance slant to the track, US house heavyweight Kaskade contributes an uplifting house remix, while the prolific Mat Zo contributing a future funk drum & bass remix under his MRZO guise. An ethereal bass interpretation from Synkro completes the package.

The second package also contains the Beatport Remix Competition winner, Seven Lions' remix of "You Got To Go".

                             


Dimitri Kechagias review: Love is not Enough by Above and Beyond is shaped to become one of the biggest vocal trancers of the year because of the very strong lyrics that can speak straight to the heart of anyone that happened to be in love at least once in his lifetime. The first package included the superb Extended and the Above and Beyond club mix and now is the time to take a closer look at the remix package. The extended remix package covers wide variety of EDM fans so check out what is best for you. First of all the awesome Kaskade who has the magic in his hands to turn any track into a hands in their air big room prog house anthem. Melodic, driving, groovy and blissful Kaskade adds his best ingredients to cook an awesome soundbed for Zoë Johnston to shine on top with her melancholic performance. As always Kaskade composes a touching breakdown and tease his audience right and exact for the hands in the air main part. Great translation that stays close to the atmosphere of the original song. The upcoming duo Maor Levi & Bluestone combine their creative resources to deliver their unique hydrid of prog house and proglifting trance. Full of great melodic layers, sidechain basslines, groovy electro trance beats, distorted choped vocal parts and phenomenal breakdown that will tear apart many dancefloors in the coming months and will cause continous waves of shivers all over your body. MRZO transforms totally the original into a cinematic moving and soothing summery drum n bass version with great application of the original elements. Imagine to dance a long with it early in the morning in Ibiza while the sun is rising. Syncro remix starts with the breathtaking strings and the vocal and then carry on in a very chilling and loungy sound that is perfect for your clubbing come down moments. Last but not least the package includes the winning remix of the competition by Seven Lions Remix on the superb Got To Go. Just check out how masterfully Seven Lions reshaped the original into an atmospheric cinematic dubstep version that is melodic and rough at the same time. If you think dubstep is too rough for you check out this beauty! Changed my mind about this style, maybe you will reconsider yours. Highly recommended! Love iT!
