Wasteland (feat. Thea Alien)

Wait for you (feat. Mellowdine)

If much of the mindset and mantra behind Above & Beyond over the last quarter of a century has been born from the idea of connection, then their fifth artist album ‘Bigger Than All Of Us’ is best summed up in one word: reconnection. 

The depth of those intuitive reconnections, both between the three band members and with their inner circle of trusted collaborators, is evidenced in the latest single 'Start A Fire’. Originated as a deep instrumental cut from Paavo Siljamäki’s vaults, it’s a demo that he estimates is “easily seven, eight years old. Tony [McGuinness] had always said: ‘I like this...’ Then as we were entering this album process, Tony's like: ‘Hey, I've written something on this! Then everybody's going: ‘Oh my God, this is great!"

"I have a notebook that I keep for song ideas", says McGuinness. "I had this thought a few years back, 'There’s enough of you in me to start a fire' and after dwelling on it for a few months I found that it worked great over a piece of music Paavo had written. I had just that one line for years, until I went to The Gorge two years ago and one afternoon the verses came together. I was trying to do something conversational, like one of Dire Straits love songs. I think it’s ended up being one of our favourites."

“That’s been really nice for me,” continues Siljamäki, “because it's something that I completely forgot that I'd created. Then I get something fresh from Tony, and his input reignites my excitement. And then, it would have never been as good if it didn't have Richard’s new vocal.” It is, he concludes, “that thing where it's the power of a team.”

Now in its completed form, the track features Richard Bedford singing Tony McGuinness’s lyrics and melody line.

Of course, it’s not the first time Richard Bedford has teamed up with Above & Beyond on a Tony McGuinness-written song — see beloved classics “Sun & Moon”, “Thing Called Love”, and "Northern Soul", to name a few.

Debuted at Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival this past April, "Start A Fire” kicked off an Above & Beyond set that would become a defining moment in the ‘Bigger Than All Of Us’ campaign.

Lane 8 makes his return to Anjunadeep, teaming up with German singer-songwriter Jyll on 'Stay Still, A Little While'.

Arriving ten years after his debut album ‘Rise’, a record that gave fans countless unforgettable moments, this single is set to be another standout Lane 8 release on the label.

‘Stay Still, A Little While’ explores the fragility of human connection and life itself. It captures that moment when someone begins to lose themselves, standing still as the weight of life takes hold. One voice urges them to keep moving, but another truth emerges: sometimes stillness is the real way forward. By pausing, facing our fears, and embracing the darkness, we find strength, because the magic lies in contrast; we can’t recognise the light without its shadows.

Recently played during his unforgettable set at Red Rocks in front of 10,000 fans, and teased in his Fall Mixtape, ‘Stay Still, A Little While’ has already become one of the most anticipated Lane 8 tracks of the year.

Since releasing his 'Childish' album in September 2024, Lane 8 has shared his music with tens of thousands of fans worldwide and will close the European leg of the tour with a special headline show at The Roundhouse in London on December 2. He will then take the Childish tour to Australia for three dates in Brisbane, Sydney, and Melbourne in March.

‘Stay Still, A Little While’ is out October 28th on Anjunadeep.
