'Above & Beyond Anjunabeats 100' is the culmination of the first vinyl century of one of the UK's most accomplished & unswerving independent dance labels. 3 DJs and 1000's of meticulous & painstaking A&R man-hours have brought Above & Beyond's brainchild Anjunabeats to the threshold of this 100th release compilation and bonus DVD. Over the last 8 years trance music's true artisans: Jono Grant, Tony McGuinness, & Paavo Siljamäki have cultivated Anjunabeats from it's backroom beginnings to the apex of worldwide dance recognition. DJ Mag described Anjunabeats in 2008 as "the most consistent trance label in the world" and it's discography has engaged the playlists of pretty much every EDM DJ out there. Central to that success has been the forging of the oft-noted 'Anjunabeats sound'... Part of the label's DNA from the very start, it has rendered their releases instantly identifiable as 'an Anjuna track' to music lovers & diehard clubbers alike. Here in 2008 Above & Beyond themselves need very little introduction. 2 top 20 hits (including one under their OceanLab alias) and a mega-selling, hugely-praised debut album in the form of 'Tri-State' have firmly established them (to quote Pete Tong) as "the UK's new dance superstars". in addition to that they've remixed some of the world's most influential artists (including Madonna & Dido) and regularly DJ to stadium-sized audiences, most recently performing to an audience of 1 million on Barra Beach in Rio on New Year's Eve. In that process they have propelled themselves up the DJ rankings, breaking into the world's Top 10 in 2006 and taking them within touching distance of the coveted No.1 position.
