Responsible for some of the finest vocal tracks in the Anjuna
archives, Mario Egeto aka. Myon makes his solo debut on the label alongside Alissa Feudo for ‘Omen In The Rain’.
With his Velvetine productions and Summer Of Love remixes
having a cult following in the trance world, ‘Omen In The Rain’ 
is yet another poignant piece of songwriting from the Hungarian producer.

Returning to the progressive trance sound that he initially built his name on, Artem Stoliarov aka Arty reprises the well-loved Alpha 9 alias for his latest Anjunabeats outing alongside London duo Koven.

Following a series of Arty instrumentals on the label throughout 2016 including ‘Patriots’ and ‘Follow The Light’ (alongside Andrew Bayer), ‘Only Good Mistake’ feat. Koven surprisingly marks the Russian producer’s first ever vocal single on Anjunabeats.

A vocalist and producer duo in the bass world, Max Rowat and Katie Boyle aka Koven have released on a number of renowned labels including Viper Recordings and Monstercat. 

Recent years have seen Arty himself explore all sides of the electronic music world, most noticeably in 2015’s diverse and experimental ‘Glorious’ LP. Elsewhere his mix for Moby’s iconic ‘Porcelain’ showed a deeper, broken beat side to his sound. 

In ‘Only Good Mistake’, however, the Russian producer defines a clear, singular melodic progressive house sound that has all the hallmarks of a festival hit and bodes well for the rebirth of the Alpha 9 alias.

Alpha 9 & Koven - Only Good Mistake

September sees Myon renew a studio relationship first formed in 2014 with his debut co-production with the US Late Night Alumni collective. 
Tonally and thematically ‘Hearts &amp; Silence’ picks up where ‘Under Your Cloud’ left off. It again underscores the brilliant, near-alchemic triangulation between Myon’s clubbier, more driving studio
instincts, L.N.A.’s cooler housier, elements and the quiet persuasion of singer Becky Jean Williams’ empathetic,
affecting vocals.
On the club mix Myon‘s techier contours and more electro-lining FX light the track’s touch-paper. Against its
riding percussion lines and elegiacally bleeping intro melody, collectively they instil a lament-filled emotive to its
early minutes.
As sensitively written as they are deeply moving, Becky’s ‘Hearts &amp; Silence’ lyrics and vocal put the brilliance of
her from-the-heart songwriting into sharpest possible focus. As the track moves towards the drop, those more
wistful vocal accents fade, replaced - in feel and tone - with first hope, and then belief.
Though their music Myon and L.N.A. skilfully shadow this transition. With evermore uplifting elements –
orchestral strings, seaside atmospherics and beautifully crafted/strikingly elevating synths all supporting the shift,
it swells to its heartening, enriching post-break conclusion. Classy, organic music making at its absolute finest.

Crafting a record that ignites festivals dancefloors worldwide? Well, it’s not brain surgery. It is, however, ‘Rocket Science’.

Debuted for 23 000 fans at the Gorge Amphitheater last September, Above & Beyond present their latest, inimitable formula for dancefloor propulsion. Tweaked and tinkered in the rarefied environment of their Hello studio, Anjunabeats Propulsion Labs predict the track will achieve an optimal angle for atmospheric re-entry on September 7.

‘Rocket Science’ will touch down in time for Jono, Tony and Paavo’s Group Therapy 300 weekend in Hong Kong. The main event at AsiaWorld-Expo will be broadcast live on the Above & Beyond’s Youtube, Facebook, Twitter and Twitch with mainland China able to enjoy the livestream on Netease. FM Radio stations worldwide will carry the vibe to millions around the world.

Dance music… it’s not rocket science, unless it is.

A special moment for us, as our new collaboration  “SHIVOHUM” with Henry Dark dropped today! 🧘🏽‍♂️ This record is so close to our hearts, as the lyrics point to a place inside each of us that can best be described as inner stillness.  We wrote this Mantra, SHIVOHUM, in Sanskrit and hope each of you can have an experience with the vibration of that Mantra.  Shout out to young gun Henry Dark for starting the melody, you have a bright future and we enjoyed digging into a lil Progressive Trance with you. 🙏🏼  Happy SHIVOHUM Day! 🧘🏽‍♂️
