Above & Beyond are getting ready to honor their most iconic release in a huge way. It’s hard to believe that it’s been 10 years since the legendary trance music trio dropped Group Therapy. Since then, we’ve seen them produce countless originals, remixes, and collaborative works all while reinforcing their position as one of the leading figures in trance music. Longtime fans have kept the massively popular album that would go on to become the name of their long-running radio show in a special place in their hearts. In honor of this, Above & Beyond have called on some of their favorite dance music producers to reimagine some of their biggest tracks for an upcoming two-part remix album.

For the past year, Pendulum have been slowly releasing the singles that make up their Elemental EP. Now, the final piece has been added to the Elemental puzzle. The fourth and final song included on the new EP is none other than their long-awaited collaboration with Hybrid Minds, “Louder Than Words.” The track was actually debuted all the way back in October when they performed at the picturesque Spitbank Fort in the English Channel. Months after that, they would release the third single “Come Alive,” and eventually the EP we see today. Joining forces with the drum & bass duo, Pendulum inject their signature sound with the oftentimes liquid-leaning act to create an atmospheric single reminiscent of a nighttime drive illuminated by the lights of a big city....
Last year Pendulum made their grand return to the airwaves with a number of new songs and livestreamed performances. Now, the iconic drum & bass group are packaging the singles into a new EP called Elemental, set to be released next month. Across their social media channels, they shared the announcement via a short teaser video. More of an informational video than a music teaser, the clip features orchestral sounds, which follow an animated cat as the record’s release information is shared. At the very end, some familiar drums kick in, but they’re gone in a fleeting instant, leaving fans with just a microscopic taste of what’s to come. The EP’s tracklist was revealed in a press release. Elemental is set to feature four tracks, “Driver,” ...
Fresh off a stellar run of sold-out shows across their New Zealand tour, famed English drum & bass duo Hybrid Minds have returned with a new single in collaboration with vocalist Grace Grundy. “Bad To Me” is a heart-wrenching offering from Hybrid Minds, who are well known for their exceptional soulful and emotional liquid drum & bass works. Grace Grundy puts forth a poignant vocal performance, as her somber tones reverberate across gloomy piano chords and airy pads. Powerful melodies and soul-stirring songwriting make “Bad To Me” a top-shelf liquid tune, in classic Hybrid Minds fashion. “We wanted the lyrics to be reflected in the mood and energy of the song and it turned out exactly as we imagined,” said the duo, speaking on the release. ...
To many fans of Above & Beyond, the trio’s 2012 Group Therapy album is an untouchable cornerstone of their discography. To Hybrid Minds, it’s a chance to breathe new life into a classic. Above & Beyond recently tapped the British production duo for an official remix of Group Therapy cut “Love Is Not Enough.” Hybrid Minds flipped the fabled track into a melodic drum & bass stunner, paying homage to Zoë Johnston‘s ageless vocals in a soulful reimagining. It’s a tall task to rework a song of this acclaim, but Hybrid Minds did well to encapsulate the soaring trance style of the original while creating something true to their own artistry. You can listen to the new remix, which arrived on Anjunabeats today, below and find ...
It’s been a great month to be a Pendulum fan. In the past thirty days, the legendary band released their first songs in ten years, dropped a new music video, and took part in a live performance from Spitbank Fort in the middle of the English Channel. If all of that wasn’t enough to stave off your decade-long Pendulum hunger, during the aforementioned performance, the band premiered an unreleased collaboration with Hybrid Minds. Attentive viewers (or those who checked out the tracklist after the performance) noticed the new track and couldn’t believe their ears. Fans were excited to see the band switch things up and incorporate their iconic sound with that of the veteran duo. Leaving no room for incorrect speculation, shortly after the show, founding member ...
