There’s a considered and conscientious edge to every record that comes from the studio of Graeme Shepherd, a.k.a. Grum. Strip away the club exterior and you will find a nuanced, sometimes provocative, message that asks us to challenge our outlook on the world.

Progressive house connoisseur, Deep State label head and Anjunabeats stalwart, June 24 sees the release of his fourth artist album, ‘Unreality’; his most reflective work to date, putting human connection in the digital age under the microscope. 

“This is about remembering our humanity, which perhaps we lost a little bit over the last couple of years - maybe we can get a bit of it back in the dark, under some strobe lights.” 

A story in two halves, the album is introspective, ideas-driven and song heavy, holding a mirror to Graeme’s own emotional journey over the last two years. 

“The first half mostly came about in the summer of 2020. With all that time on my hands, and as a form of therapy, I started rediscovering a lot of 80s music I loved and hadn’t listened to for a long time. This turned into doing special 80s livestreams to connect with my fans. There is definitely a bit of longing here for simpler and happier times.” Grum explains. “The second half of the album has a darker, apocalypse rave feel to it”.

Designed for the darkest of dance floors, lead single ‘Disconnected’ featuring Daniel Sealine provides one of those cataclysmic moments; a techno infused helter-skelter ride with Daniel’s vocal bursting out of the shadows.

Grum embarks on phase one of his ‘Unreality’ tour this summer, stage one including 18 dates across North America with shows in San Francisco, Las Vegas, Chicago, Toronto and more.

Grum feat. Sealine ‘Disconnected’ is out now. ‘Unreality’ arrives June 24 on Anjunabeats, and is available to pre-order as a single 12” vinyl, and as a bundle with Deep State via the Anjuna Music Store.

Release Date: 24th June 2022

Anjunabeats stalwart Graeme Shepherd, aka Grum, releases his fourth artist album, ‘Unreality’. Out now.

‘Unreality’ is his most reflective work to date, putting human connection in the digital age under the microscope. A story in two halves, the album is introspective, ideas-driven and song-heavy, holding a mirror to Graeme’s own emotional journey over the last two years.

The visceral nature of Graeme’s work has been present since his debut LP ‘Heartbeats’. A feel-good, get up and dance record championed by Annie Mac and Pete Tong in the early 2010s, Grum was a product of the blog era, riding the heights of Hype Machine with his synth-heavy sound. As he pivoted towards the dance floor, both his sound and the stories he wanted to tell became more daring.

‘Shout’, his cover of the Tears For Fears classic, was a prog house protest anthem that foreshadowed 2019’s ‘Deep State’ LP - an underground epic with an undercurrent of discontent, evident in the acid-tinged ‘Stay’, Depeche Mode-esque ‘Lose Control’ or hypnotic ‘Altered State’. 'Deep State' eventually spawned his own record label of the same name which has gone from strength to strength in recent years.

On his new album 'Unreality', there’s an undeniable summer euphoria to ‘Don’t Look Down’ and ‘Taking Over Me’, written alongside regular collaborator Natalie Shay, a rising star of the U.K. indie-pop scene. ‘Faded Memory’ and ‘Come Alive’, both featuring Sarah Appel, are a synth-heavy shot of adrenalin, channelling the glossy optimism of 1980s pop in a punchy contemporary production.

Another recognisable voice, Dom Youdan, enters the fold. Having previously worked with Grum on Tomorrow’ and ‘Invisible’, there’s a tangible yearning for deeper human connection in ‘Be The Horizon’ and ‘Virtual Companion’. Lead single ‘Disconnected’, featuring Daniel Sealine, is designed for the darkest corners of a club; a techno-infused helter-skelter ride with Daniel’s vocal bursting out of the shadows.

We close with a moment of hope in ‘Look To The Light’, Graeme’s first vocal performance on a record, and the introspective acceptance of ‘Our Cosmic Insignificance’.

Grum’s ‘Unreality’ is out now on Anjunabeats, with vinyl available to pre-order on the Anjuna Music Store now. Grum embarks on phase one of his ‘Unreality’ tour this summer, including 18 dates across North America with shows in San Francisco, Las Vegas, Chicago, Toronto and more, plus a stop off at Above & Beyond’s Group Therapy Weekender London festival this September.

Meet JODA: a fresh musical pairing with shared DNA. 

Jono Grant and Darren Tate have history. Both together and apart, they have been there, done that and bought the vintage synth gear to celebrate.

Grant is one-third of Above & Beyond who, over the course of a two-decade career, have established themselves as one of the biggest electronic groups in the world. Eight studio albums (including one as vocal trance group OceanLab and two acoustic reworks), 17 compilation albums, a film score and nearing 100 singles speak to an output as varied as it is prodigious. Their label Anjunabeats is home to a bustling community of artists with over twenty years of catalogue.

As a classically trained musician, songwriter, producer and hitmaker, Tate is an OG Top of the Pops-botherer. In the early Noughties, at the outset of his career, he appeared on the show three times, once with Angelic, his collaboration with Judge Jules and the latter’s wife, performing classic trance banger It’s My Turn, then twice under the name Jurgen Vries. The following years saw more musical adventures, more Top 40 UK hits (12 in total) and more pseudonyms, including the trance-facing DT8 Project.

In 2003, the pair managed to sync their schedules to work on a couple of tracks, 'Let The Light Shine In' and 'Nocturnal Creatures'. Clearly, there was chemistry here. But as the pair’s respective careers subsequently took them off round the world in opposite directions, reconnecting other than fleetingly was never easy.

Then in 2019 Tate returned to his trance roots and signed to Anjunabeats for his DT8 Project releases. Around the same time, Above & Beyond received an offer to score an environmental documentary, 'The Last Glaciers'.

“I'm musical, but I've never done a score before, which would be quite an undertaking. And I knew Darren was massively experienced at doing that, and I've always admired what he does in his film work. So my first thought was: why don't we do it with Darren?” 

Jono and Darren got stuck into composing together, and it became a dream project all round ­– not least because it sparked further ideas. So, JODA was born. Working in Tate’s studio in suburban north London, and A&B’s south London HQ, the pair were in a creative bubble during the early days of the pandemic. And the partnership proved fruitful.

It was as if this pair of young-minded veterans were finding themselves all over again. Aptly enough, that fed into 'We Find Ourselves', featuring Grant's own vocals.

“Darren had the idea of using the ARP Odyssey for the bass sound,” explains Grant, “and it sounds very retro. We were listening to stuff like the Drive soundtrack by Kavinsky. So the tempo of the track actually comes from that style of music. We wouldn't have ended up at 110 BPM if it wasn't for listening to that kind of music."

Watch this space for more from JODA across spring and summer 2022. 'We Find Ourselves' is out now on Anjunabeats.

Grum shares new music from his upcoming album ‘Unreality’: ‘Come Alive / Pattern Recognition’.

Progressive house connoisseur, Deep State label head and Anjunabeats stalwart, June 24 sees the release of Grum's fourth artist album, ‘Unreality’; his most reflective work to date, putting human connection in the digital age under the microscope. A story in two halves, the album is introspective, ideas-driven and song heavy, holding a mirror to Graeme’s own emotional journey over the last two years.

“The first half mostly came about in the summer of 2020. With all that time on my hands, and as a form of therapy, I started rediscovering a lot of 80s music I loved and hadn’t listened to for a long time. This turned into doing special 80s livestreams to connect with my fans. There is definitely a bit of longing here for simpler and happier times.” Grum explains. “The second half of the album has a darker, apocalypse rave feel to it”.

The final singles to be released before the album’s launch, ‘Come Alive’ and ‘Pattern Recognition’ connect both sides of the ‘Unreality’ narrative. “This is a bit of an oddball track which is possibly turning into my favourite off the album.” says Grum on ‘Come Alive’. “Sarah delivered a really lovely vocal about pulling yourself together. Musically, a big Depeche Mode influence on this one, with a bit of James Holden too.” A “proper synth workout”, ‘Pattern Recognition’ takes proceedings into Gabriel & Dresden vs. Felix da Housecat territory.

Grum embarks on phase one of his ‘Unreality’ tour this summer, including 18 dates across North America with shows in San Francisco, Las Vegas, Chicago, Toronto and more.

‘Come Alive / Pattern Recognition’ is out now. ‘Unreality’ arrives June 24 on Anjunabeats, and is available to pre-order as a single 12” vinyl via the Anjuna Music Store.

A new era begins for ALPHA 9 with 'Calling', a collaboration featuring Brazilian DJ and producer Scorz and vocalist/multi-instrumentalist Tom Bailey.

Artem Stolyarov. Whether he's ARTY or ALPHA 9, he's always been sensational. Artem first arrived on Anjuna's radar in 2010. What followed was a stellar run under his ARTY alias: 'Rush', 'Zara', 'Around The World', 'Rebound' and 'Kate' are Anjunabeats classics, and helped define the sound of the label in the early 2010s.

Artem's ALPHA 9 alias is where he has found his stride in recent years. Focusing on the progressive trance that he fell in love with as a teenager, some of Artem's standout moments as ALPHA 9 include 'Before The Dawn', 'Stellar', 'Skin', and his faithful update of Above & Beyond and Zoë Johnston’s evergreen classic ‘Good For Me’.

ALPHA 9's energetic sets have been heard at Steel Yard, Dreamstate, Electric Daisy Carnival, Tomorrowland, Ushuaïa, Amnesia Ibiza, and Creamfields, winning him millions of fans worldwide. 

To begin the next chapter in the ALPHA 9 story, Artem has enlisted two collaborators on 'Calling': Scorz and Tom Bailey.

With over 380k monthly listeners on Spotify, Scorz's melodic, upbeat tracks push musical boundaries and transcend genres. This is the Brazilian artist’s first time collaborating with ALPHA 9.

Musically speaking, there’s not much Tom Bailey can’t do. He’s a multi-instrumentalist producer, writer and performer, and a graduate of the Institute of Contemporary Music Performance. Some might recognise him from his You Tube channel – he’s the founder and creator of Tom Bailey Backing Tracks which offers backing tracks to aspiring writers, singers and jammers. Bailey has been credited on dozens of songs across multiple genres.

‘Calling’ is only the start of a whole new chapter for ALPHA 9. Expect to hear much more over the coming months, and more new material in his set at Above & Beyond's sold out Group Therapy 500 celebrations in Los Angeles. Fans can tune in to watch via Above & Beyond's Twitch and YouTube.

ALPHA 9 ‘Calling’ with Scorz feat. Tom Bailey is out on Anjunabeats.

Response (Extended Mix)

This December we're celebrating two new club tracks to round out a special year in the world of Jaytech releases. With more time in the studio this year, Jimbo has been hard at work writing the next big hits for the forthcoming chapter of dance music renaissance.

Inspired by his recent journeys in the state of Arizona, "Vortex" is equally at home in a club set or a festival main stage, an expedition in analog chords and slamming prog beats. On the flipside, "Midnight Sonora" balances a soulful cello breakdown with a rolling bassline and punchy groove that's sure to put a smile on your face.

Mixed by Jaytech, mastered by Walter Coelho at Atlantico Blue Studios. Out everywhere December 11th 2020 on Positronic.
