The assimilation of the best Anjunadeep and other deep tracks on Soundcloud.

Best of Deep & Progressive - Part 1

One of France's rising star's Michael Calfan returns to Axtone reworking the cinematic original into something quite different but just as unique. Marcus describes it better than we ever could... "I love this remix, the breakdown is such a nice piece of art, the way he respected the pads and still did something totally new with it is just phenomenal" 'Resurrection' Michael's debut release on Axtone firmly cemented him in clubland and that record itself continues to raise roofs globally.

With support from MK, The Magician, Bondax and the French Express crew, Australian house producer Lancelot has stealthily built up a name as one of his country's hottest talents - even being named by Mixmag as one to watch for 2014.

Lancelot now presents his debut release on Anjunadeep - the label that has nurtured talents such as Dusky - which sees him collaborate with exciting new act Antony & Cleopatra on two vibrant pieces of contemporary house music. Givin’ It Up builds from soft pads into an infectious slab of piano house with a infectious bass groove, whilst the two vocalists, Alex Burnett of Sparkadia, and Anita Blay of CocknBullKid, go back and forth on clandestine vocals.

Givin’ It Up is already getting attention from the right people, including T.Williams, Tensnake, Perseus and man of the hour, MK, who loved the track so much that he found time in his hectic schedule to turn out a remix. Expect that one in February.

On the flip, Make Ends Meet again features soulful vocals, textured with layers of chugging bass, brilliantly hooky melodies and clean skipping percussion. Blending stylish harmonics with a real dancefloor sensibility it rounds off an exciting debut on the label, packed full of complex, classy melodies and pure feel-good vibes.

An early stand out of our 2014 releases, “The One EP” firmly established Lane 8 as one of the most exciting young artists around, picking up heavy support from Pete Tong, The Magician and Tensnake.

Following the heavy-hitting Klangkarussell Remix that featured on the EP, Matt Lange, Baio and Bhok come together on a diverse, genre spanning remix package.

Matt Lange takes “The One” on a techy journey, twisting the searing bass of the original into a subtle, hypnotic melody, surrounded by trademark Matt Lange atmospherics and the infectious vocal.

“Nothing You Can Say” gets the remix treatment from Baio, who as well as being a Grammy winning member of Vampire Weekend is also making a name for himself with his solo productions on Greco-Roman and Future Classic. A quirky blend of stuttering clicks and warm flowing bass, his mix once again brings the gorgeous vocal of Lucy Stone to the fore.

Rounding off the package is a remix from up and coming UK producer Bhok, who’s early productions have garnered him the support of XLR8R. He brings his bass heavy style to “The One”, creating a complex low end roller.

Lane 8 feat. Patrick Baker - The One (Matt Lange Remix)

Listen now: https://anjunabeats.lnk.to/Acoustic2

A small taste of Above & Beyond's forthcoming album 'Acoustic II'. The trio will perform with a full band at some of the world's most iconic venues including London's Royal Albert Hall, Sydney Opera House and LA's Hollywood Bowl.

Above & Beyond are a phenomenon unlike any other in dance music. Grammy-nominated songwriters, they are the only British dance act to sell out Madison Square Garden as DJs, and yet are about to take an 18-piece band set up on a sold out tour of the world's most iconic concert halls: including London's Royal Albert Hall, Sydney Opera House and Hollywood Bowl to name just three.

A show described by Billboard as “one of the finest in dance music history”, the tour - and accompanying Acoustic II studio album - represents yet another against-the-odds landmark in the unique story of Above & Beyond. Venues that normally take years of hard touring to reach are sold out on only the band's second acoustic tour - you are left wondering: just how do they do it?

The secret is in the songs. Sung back at them by thousands at their celebratory DJ sets, Above & Beyond's tales of life, love and loss have soundtracked weddings, proposals, hikes up Everest, marathons and funerals - stories which are tweeted and emailed in to A&B HQ each week. The lyrics have been plastered on festival signs, provided solace for fans in hard times and have been tattooed with pride by thousands of fans.

Following last year's critically acclaimed electronic album, “We Are All We Need”, Above & Beyond Acoustic II revisits several of the best loved songs from that album and as well as classics from Above & Beyond’s wide back catalogue and reworks them for concert halls rather than clubs; breathing new life and context into them.

Under the supervision of musical director Bob Bradley, the legendary trio have reworked a total of 13 tracks into rich, string-laden band arrangements that reference Portishead, Angelo Badalamenti and movie soundtracks with a uniquely Above & Beyond idiosyncrasy.

Reaching back into their individual musical histories, each member of Above & Beyond performs different parts of the arrangements, including Jono on Rhodes, Tony on guitar and vocals, and Paavo on grand piano. Celebrated A&B collaborator Zoë Johnston sings on re-imagined dancefloor anthems like “We're All We Need” and “Alchemy”, and is joined by a host of other contributing vocalists from Above & Beyond's past and present. Completing the ensemble, string quartets and percussion sections provide a big room feel of a completely different kind.

On A Good Day (ilan Bluestone Remix (Edit))

Joonas Hahmo & Audioventura ‘Tomorrow’

Hahmo Recordings welcomes in the New Year with a driving melodic trancer that sees label boss Joonas Hahmo collaborating with Finnish newcomer Audioventura, who returns to the label after making a rather impressive debut with ‘The Beach’ last year, a record that earned a requisite nod from the benevolent leader of the trance scene himself, Armin van Buuren.

‘Tomorrow’ is a record that reinforces the Hahmo Recordings reputation of fusing polished studio work, deeper progressive vibes as well as euphoric mainstage trance. Drawing on those afore mentioned deeper vibes in its introduction, there’s a quick shift into turbo-charged grooves after the drop, with its powered bassline ensuring ‘Tomorrow’ isn’t left wanting for energy. The lush melody that’s welcomed in the breakdown draws on the ‘80s nostalgia that’s defined seminal Hahmo records like ‘Cocktail Bar.’

It’s the combination of cleverly executed ideas and studio polish that gives ‘Tomorrow’ its edge. Initially a musical concoction from Audioventura that he’d written in the hope of releasing on Hahmo Recordings, his label boss saw the potential for something even more special after an early listen, inspiring the studio collaboration that led to the level of sonic polish that can be heard in the final product.

Release Date: 16th June 2017

Way Out West (a.k.a Nick Warren & Jody Wisternoff) present their new studio album - ‘Tuesday Maybe’ - to be released on June 16th on Anjunadeep (“One of the hottest electronic labels in the world” - Hype Machine).

The pioneering duo have forged a reputation as as one of the UK’s most influential electronic acts in their 25 years together, reaching the Top 20 of the UK’s singles chart, touring their live show globally, and remixing the likes of Orbital, Unkle, James Holden, St. Etienne and Ian Brown.

In addition to their impressive collaborative back catalogue, the duo are both internationally renowned DJs in their own right. Nick runs the influential Soundgarden label and has helmed eight instalments of the iconic Global Underground compilation series. Jody released a solo album on Anjunadeep in 2012 and has since mixed the last four editions of the labels much-loved compilation series, all of which have topped the iTunes Dance Album chart.

They now return as Way Out West with ‘Tuesday Maybe’ their fifth LP, and their first in almost eight years.

Known for fusing elements of breaks, techno, trance and progressive house, Nick and Jody again combine wide-ranging influences on their new album. Title track ‘Tuesday Maybe’ has become something of a cult favourite since it’s release in early 2016, it’s haunting melody and rolling low-end becoming a firm favourite for the likes of Pete Tong, Lee Burridge and John Digweed. Parisian legend I:Cube worked his magic on an atmospheric remix that was supported by Mano Le Tough, Ricardo Villalobos and Maceo Plex.

Across the LP we hear a contemporary take on classic Way Out West elements, from raucous basslines and ravey breakbeats on ‘Set My Mind’ and ‘Slam’, to warm melodic deep house on ‘Lullaby Horizon’ and ‘We Move In The Dark’, featuring vocals from Hendrik Burkhard. The duo collaborate with five vocalists on the album, including label-mates Eli & Fur on opening track ‘Running Away’, and former Solomun collaborator Liu Bei on ‘Oceans’.

Released alongside the announcement of the album, ‘Oceans’ is a trademark piece of emotive dancefloor music from Nick and Jody, pairing textured melodies with haunting vocals.

Throughout 2017 Way Out West bring their well-honed live show to venues large and small across North America and the UK, with a notable performance at Glastonbury Festival in June the week after the album’s release.

‘Tuesday Maybe’ is set to be the eigth artist album to be released on Anjunadeep, an A&R hotbed celebrated for the release of debut LPs from Dusky, Cubicolor and Lane 8. With nearly 300 single releases and a string of iTunes #1 albums and compilations under its belt, the label has distinguished itself as one of the scene’s leading imprints, earning glowing coverage everywhere from Resident Advisor to Pitchfork, whilst receiving heavy support on BBC Radio 1 from Annie Mac, Pete Tong, B.Traits and Phil Taggart.
