LOOP STAGE and BARENA presents Above and Beyond at Loop Stage in Lima, Peru (Saturday, March 10th. 2012). Jono Grant, Paavo Siljamäki and Tony McGuinness - Above and Beyond make music, pure and simple. That music happens to be electronic. And it connects. "We're a group," says Above and Beyond founder Tony McGuinness. "And what we're trying to do is exactly do that, connect with people. You try and describe something in your own life, but in a way that will resonate with other people. When you see people singing along as passionately as they do, I guess you're getting it right." This makes Above & Beyond unique, not just in trance, but in popular music as well. "We like to think of ourselves as songwriters first," says Paavo Siljamaki, who with Jono Grant makes up the trio. "That's our approach to music. The most challenging thing is to write a song that really touches the listener."

Chunk after chunk of electronic music that has been patiently crafted and produced with emotion and care. It's music that creates atmospheres as well as deliver a killer blow without the need of resorting to the overused and obvious.

In the last year alone, they have sound-tracked the unveiling of a new spaceship, performed an acoustic show in a hot air balloon, and entranced a crowd of 8,000 in Beirut with their first full live show. For the world's most famous trance trio, there are no limits. "There's so much going on," says Tony McGuinness. "We're trying to do so many things."

Having hit number 1 in the iTunes Dance Albums Chart for the last two years running, Jaytech is again mixing the annual Anjunadeep label compilation, "Anjunadeep 04" this coming February. With a brand new artist album due in the summer - to follow on from his universally acclaimed "Everything Is OK" LP (**** DJ Mag) - Jaytech is a man on a mission and the perfect choice to warm up a buzzing Brixton crowd.
