Above & Beyond
Above & Beyond is an English trance music group formed in 2000 and consists of the members Jono Grant, Tony McGuinness, and Paavo Siljamäki. They have their own record label Anjunabeats, which releases trance and progressive music, and they also host their own weekly radio show Group Therapy Radio. The group's tracks are regularly played by DJs around the world, including Armin van Buuren, Gareth Emery, Ferry Corsten, and Kyau & Albert. On 19 October 2012 DJ Magazine announced the results of their annual Top 100 DJ Poll, with Above & Beyond placed at #8 in the world.
Jono Grant and Paavo Siljamäki met at the University of Westminster where they were both pursuing a degree in Electronic Engineering. Having discovered a common mutual interest for electronic music, they decided to collaborate in writing music together. Following Paavo's suggestion, they set up the Anjunabeats label in the summer of 1999 with the release of their first single 'Volume One' under the alias Anjunabeats.
