’Numb’ partners Genix with BBC Radio 1 supported singer-songwriter Natalie McCool, also known as LYCA. The Liverpool based multi-instrumentalist received acclaim for her 2016 album ’The Great Unknown’, championed by the likes of Q, The Sunday Times, Huw Stephens and Alice Levine.

The first single taken from ‘199X’, ‘Numb’ with LYCA is out now. ‘199X’ will be released on the 10th of September and is available for both vinyl and digital pre-order now on the Anjuna Music Store.

A love letter to rave culture, ‘199X’ is the debut artist album from Anjunabeats stalwart Damion ‘Damo’ Houchen, also known as Genix.

The LP is a departure from the sound Genix is best known for. Through the late 2000’s and 2010’s, Genix was well known for his textured, melodic take on trance. He caught the ear of Armin van Buuren and Paul van Dyk, securing releases on both Armada and Vandit. Genix arrived on Anjunabeats in 2010 and immediately became a mainstay in Above & Beyond’s sets with tracks like ‘Aura’, ‘Destinations’ and ‘Black Water’ (the latter written with regular touring partner Sunny Lax).

From those origins, Genix has blossomed into a mainstay in the trance scene. As his stature grew, so did his approach to his music:

“There have been so many influences [on my sound]; DJs, producers, events and the thousands of records I’ve bought over the years. I don’t try to be any one genre, some people think I produce less trance sometimes, but if you have followed my career from the start it’s always had tech influences. I think any producer should stick to the sounds they love, if it makes me jump out of my seat when I’m making it, then that’s all that really matters. 

My music is a representation of my personal taste, it’s my expression and my passion being put into sound. It really is an art and I just try to be myself, not a genre, not a certain BPM, just Genix.” - Genix

His Anjunabeats Worldwide 09 mix championed these ideas. It was an iTunes #1 dance album that took us from slow burning progressive to fiery techno, landing somewhere between a Global Underground mix and a classic Gatecrasher compilation.

2020’s ‘The Light’ was a bullish electro-edged anthem alongside label mate Grum and hit number one on Beatport’s Melodic Techno chart. DJ support from Etienne De Crecy and Hi-Lo (Oliver Heldens) followed. 

A polished DJ, Genix has performed around the world; festival stages at Creamfields (UK), Tomorrowland, EDC, ABGT250 and 350, to more intimate club affairs; Ministry Of Sound, The Hollywood Palladium, Warehouse Project. 

These shows don’t live up to the heights of playing 5,597 metres above sea level though, where in April 2019 Genix set the Guinness world record for the highest land DJ set, hosting a party at Everest Base Camp.

Oliver Smith, Anjunabeats' first signing and one of our label's oldest and dearest friends, presents new single 'Make Me Feel'.

One of two Oliver Smith productions featured on Anjunabeats Volume 16, 'Make Me Feel' is a rapturous club cut from one of the label's best-loved names. It was met with the roaring support of 22,000 people in Oli's set at Group Therapy Weekender at The Gorge, and has been extensively road-tested by Oli across his busy summer of touring.

"The answer to our favourite Anjuna pub quiz question: ‘who outside of Above & Beyond has appeared on every Volume compilation’. As with the best Oli beats, the charm is in the simplicity. It's feel good music that can’t help but put a smile on your face." - Above & Beyond

In 2018, he mixed the Anjunabeats Worldwide 08 compilation; featuring ten of his own tracks, it reached the #1 spot on the iTunes dance chart in the USA, UK, Canada, Australia, and more. Oli's recent outings 'Borderline', 'Be Alone' and 'Warehouse' have both amassed millions of streams, with the latter becoming this humble hitmaker's best performing track on streaming to date. 

Catch Oliver Smith at Above & Beyond's supersized Group Therapy Weekender London festival, set to take place at a brand new open air venue in the heart of East London on September 10/11. He'll also be taking us into the early hours at Anjunabeats Los Angeles on October 15, alongside Mat Zo, SunrYse and more artists TBA.

"Black Room Boy" is the latest single from Above & Beyond's "Group Therapy" album.

Spearheaded by the powerful Above & Beyond Club Mix, “Black Room Boy” is the seventh – and final - single to be taken from the UK-based trio’s acclaimed “Group Therapy” album.  

With its lyrical inspiration focusing on the bitterness of an insular, introverted character who lives out his frustrations in the virtual world of the internet, “Black Room Boy” is driven by the vocals of Above & Beyond’s own Tony McGuinness – who penned the song’s lyrics –with the familiar tones of Richard Bedford adding a second layer in the chorus.   

A stand-out moment in Above & Beyond’s recent sets everywhere from Australia to Hawaii, the driving progressive-influenced Above & Beyond Club Mix is an unraveling epic with many peaks and a deep, emotive breakdown.

The Above & Beyond Club Mix of “Black Room Boy” will feature on Above & Beyond’s landmark “Anjunabeats Volume 10” compilation – released on 4 March.
