Above & Beyond release ‘React’, the lead single from their forthcoming ‘Tranquility Base Vol. 2’ EP.
With its heavy bassline and multiple tempo changes, ‘React’ has been delighting audiences across the world this year and is set to become a club and festival favourite. Debuted at the Radio 1 Dance show back in March at the Drumsheds in London, the track was recently played at Above & Beyond’s Group Therapy 600 celebrations in Mexico City where it was met with roaring response by the 14,000 person crowd.
During a busy year of worldwide shows, including Brazil, Canada, the UK and the US, the GRAMMY-nominated founders of Anjunabeats have been hard at work in the studio on their next Tranquility Base volume.
The name of the EP series references Above & Beyond’s beloved Tranquility Base alias, which was revered for its contribution to the trance genre, including iconic records such as ‘Surrender’, ‘Oceanic’ and ‘Razorfish’.
Following the enormous success of Volume 1 of the EP series last year, Above & Beyond are back with the second set of five club-dominating instrumental records. The Tranquility Base Vol. 1 EP peaked in the #1 slot on Beatport’s Techno releases chart, with singles ‘Angry JP8’ and ‘500’ both hitting Beatport Trance #1.
Above & Beyond’s ‘React’ is out now, with the full Tranquility Base Vol. 2 EP dropping December 6.

Above & Beyond - React10
Summary
Above & Beyond’s latest club banger, React, is a powerful proglifting track with a 130 BPM beat. It features a big, bold, and tough kick, thumping pulsating basslines, heavy raw percussion, and an addictive synthy hook that instantly mesmerizes the crowd. The breakdown allows the big synths to take center stage, and then the beat drops for a playful and surprising part of the track. The rhythm and groove change completely, making it danceable and more house-oriented. The final breakdown pushes the big synths to the maximum with even electro-touched short sequences. The climax goes off the hook to dominate and conquer the dancefloor. React is a track that aims to make the crowd react instantly, and with its cool variations in tone and mode, it keeps you interested and dancing throughout. #PureGold Love iT10.0
