Above & Beyond

Just days after their acoustic shows at LA's Greek Theatre, Above & Beyond did a live broadcast from London's 10,000 capacity Alexandra Palace on Saturday, during which they debuted five brand new personal productions. Sold out weeks in advance, the ABGT050 event means Above & Beyond have sold over 20,000 tickets across their latest two show weekends on both sides of the Atlantic.

Celebrating their landmark 500^th radio show and the 50^th episode of "Group Therapy" since renaming the show last year, the London based trio opened their set with a new Genix remix of Above & Beyond classic ‘Anjunabeach’, before a techno-influenced remix of New Order's iconic ‘Blue Monday’. Also debuted were two brand new instrumentals – ‘Mariana Trench’ and ‘ID’ - which both fused hard-hitting club elements with the deep, melodic musicality that the band are known for. Teasing fans with a possible track from their third artist album, expected in 2014, Above & Beyond also dropped a new vocal track featuring Alex Vargas, titled ‘Sticky Fingers’.

Other debuts included ‘Prototype’ by Artificial, new project from Anjunabeats’ Andrew Bayer and Norin & Rad, and a slew of new melodic productions from Ilan Bluestone. Fans were also treated to an as-yet-unidentified remix of the A&B classic ‘Alone Tonight’, as well as a preview from the forthcoming A&B Acoustic album, when Above & Beyond dropped ‘Sun & Moon Acoustic’ as their closing track - prompting a memorable crowd singalong.
