Anjunabeats

Anjunabeats is a UK EDM label that was established in 2000 by Above & Beyond. Originally focused on Trance, the label expanded its repertoire to include various sub-styles around 2010. In 2005, Above & Beyond and Jono Grant's brother, James Grant, started Anjunadeep, a deeper label specializing in Deep and Progressive House.

The packaging for Anjunabeats CDrs varied as they were manufactured on demand. Different sleeve options included white cardboard sleeves with stickers, plastic sleeves, release-specific cardboard sleeves, grey cardboard sleeves, and blue cardboard sleeves for promos with stickers.

With an authoritative presence in the EDM scene for over two decades, Anjunabeats continues to deliver cutting-edge music across genres while maintaining its distinct sound and identity.

Introducing 'Duality', the new double album from Andrew Bayer.   Two musical threads weave through the collected works of Andrew Bayer. One thread gave us the downtempo masterclass of 2013's 'If It Were You We'd Never Leave' and the brilliant 'In My Last Life' LP. The other thread produced arena-sized anthems like 2014's 'Once Lydian', his epic 'Super Human' with Asbj?rn and the club remix project 'In My Next Life'.   From the introspective to the explosive, these records are our community's shared soundtrack: we've all got a favourite Andrew Bayer record. But they have come in so many forms and styles.  It leaves us asking the question, who exactly is Andrew Bayer? It's a question he's asked himself.  "Since day one, I have always struggled with how to present myself. I love making these experimental home listening albums of electronica and indie sounds, but I also love DJing and making trance bangers. On my last album I had to remix the album in full after it was released to make the worlds fit. This time around I wanted to capture all the breadth, depth and tension within that duality under one single project" - Andrew Bayer  'Duality' brings these two creative threads together under one album for the first time since his debut album 'It's Artificial'.   Crafted over three years, Bayer is joined by an eclectic cast of collaborators old and new. 'Duality' pt. 1 explores Bayer's passion for downtempo and indie-pop, while 'Duality' pt. 2 takes on his forward-thinking trance and progressive sond. Both are tied by Bayer's unique vision, a shared sensibility and same group of collaborators. Today, you can hear a sample from each side: 'Equal' (with Asbj?rn), and 'Midnight' (with Alison May).  'Duality' is the true follow up to my first album 'It's Artificial'. It is by far my most raw and honest work, and I can't wait to celebrate the album around the world with you all on tour" - Andrew Bayer
