Two years in the making, Above and Beyond release ‘Tri-State’, their first artist album, on March 6. ‘Tri-State’ is not an easy album to categorise. Tracks like the already hugely received Andy Moor collaboration ‘Air for Life’, ‘World on Fire’ and forthcoming single ‘Alone Tonight’ will immediately impact with A&B devotees everywhere. However, the downtempo Lemon Jelly-esque Balearica of ‘Indonesia’, ambient title track ‘Tri-State’, the epic drama of ‘In the Past’, and the break-beat majesty of ‘Home’ will chart new ground for the trio. Their solo productions have captured the imagination of the clubbers and DJ’s alike, with anthems like ‘Far From in Love’ and ‘No One on Earth’ rocking dance floors worldwide. Meanwhile they’ve tasted chart success twice with the Oceanlab’s singles ‘Satellite’ (Top 20 in 2004) and ‘Clear Blue Water’. Outside of the studio, Above & Beyond also A&R one of the UK’s most successful, independent dance labels, Anjunabeats. Above and Beyond’s ‘Tri-State’ is the album that will not only enrapture their fan base, but cause the rest of the world to sit up and take notice too.
