ABOVE & BEYOND: Anjunabeats Vol 11
There is no stopping Above & Beyond right now. From becoming the first UK DJs to sell out Madison Square Garden to their capacity ABGT050 show at London’s legendary 10,000 Alexandra Palace, the London-based trio continue to cement themselves as scene leaders in the electronic music world.
Always separating from the pack and exploring a deeper musicality, the band also recently embarked on their bold Acoustic project – a show that was described as “one of the most memorable in dance music history” by Billboard, who witnessed the two sold out concerts at LA’s iconic Greek Theatre.
Again sidestepping the current trends for instant gratification, Above & Beyond’s “Anjunabeats Volume 11” instead reaches deeper and concentrates on the lost art of the build – joining the dots between deep house, progressive, modern trance and forward-thinking big room sounds. Much like their eclectic weekly Group Therapy Radio Show (weekly listenership of over 20 million), the focus is on quality and musicality rather than genre alone.
For this 11th edition of their iTunes #1 Dance Album series, Jono, Tony and Paavo have created a two-hour plus journey that draws inspiration from classic, carefully crafted mix CDs like Sasha & Digweed’s iconic “Northern Exposure” and the iconic Renaissance mixes. “Anjunabeats Volume 11” marks another year of forward-motion from the critically acclaimed Anjunabeats label.
