Above & Beyond refresh the summer with the new “Anjunabeats Volume 16”

After three years from the last collection, the magic trio propose again this year their multicolored sound in two CDs

The path that leads the Anjunafamily to the fateful milestone of the 500 episodes of the Group Therapy radioshow, with the celebrations to be held in Los Angeles on the next 15 and 16 October, as well as being studded with as many events, such as the double “Group Therapy Weekender”, at The Gorge Amphitreatre in WA State (22-23 and 24 July) and in London (10 and 11 September) is obviously characterized by the release of a lot of new music.

For Above & Beyond, without a doubt, this 2022 is characterized by the success of the collaboration with anamē (Marcus Schössow and Thomas Sagstad) for their appreciated track “Gratitude” (with Marty Longstaff), by the launch of the new downtempo and ambient label, Anjunadeep Reflections and by the new project that explores the side progressive and synthpop (which recalls the sound of the 80s, once again) of Jono Grant from Above & Beyond with Darren Tate called JODA: the duo had already been involved in a fruitful trance collaboration in the past (for the wonderful “Let The Light Shine In” and “Nocturnal Creatures”) and just this year, for the soundtrack of the environmental documentary, “The Last Glaciers”. After the release of the three singles “We Find Ourselves”, “Try” and “Shape Of Your Heart”, on August 26th is expected the release of the debut album which bears the name of the duo.

The new compilation is obviously inspired by the two flows that coexist within the Anjuna world: CD 1, with deep and progressive harmonies and CD 2, where the progressive trance sound we all know is more markedly enhanced.
