A showcase of dynamic songwriting and forward-thinking sound design, Jordi van Achthoven and Micha Heyboer, a.k.a Tinlicker, announce their debut artist album ‘This Is Not Our Universe’, to be released on Anjunabeats this September.

Fusing Jordi’s polished pop and house production with Micha’s deep sonic palette, honed as a member of drum and bass group Black Sun Empire, Tinlicker has created groove-heavy progressive since 2013. Supported by Above & Beyond, Tiësto and Armin van Buuren, their electro-tinged sound has been championed by both Mau5trap and Anjunabeats. Reworks of Lane 8, Deadmau5 and Reflekt’s iconic ‘Need To Feel Loved’ have become indispensable tools for the world’s biggest DJs.

A comprehensive insight into the Tinlicker sound, ‘This Is Not Our Universe’ features heartfelt songwriting, wistful house grooves and vibrant progressive interludes – a showcase for two innovative producers who are leading the pack.

Igniting dancefloors with ‘Lost’ feat. Run Rivers earlier this summer, the second single from the album is a long-awaited remix of Alt-J’s ‘Breezeblocks’. A platinum-selling hit, the original has been streamed over 320 million times on Spotify since its release on 2012’s ‘An Awesome Wave LP’.

“We’re both fans of alt-J. We had the idea of creating a completely different and unique vibe from the original, and the track has been a highlight in our sets over the past months. We are also very happy that alt-J themselves were happy for us to release this version.

The Tinlicker remix of ‘Breezeblocks’ is available to download and stream now.

Tinlicker’s ‘This Is Not Our Universe’ will be released on September 27th, available on streaming, download, CD, and vinyl. The CD, fittingly, comes in a collector’s edition tin case.

The accompanying ‘This Is Not Our Universe tour’ see Micha and Jordi visit four continents over the next few months including performances at Creamfields Festival, Warehouse Project and Analog Brooklyn. Full tour dates including club shows across Australia, North America, Europe, and Asia can be found here.

      The latest offering from GRAMMY-nominated artists Above & Beyond and Zoë Johnston is an uplifting and ethereal trance record, first debuted to 20,000 fans at the trio’s Group Therapy 500 celebration in Los Angeles in 2022. Road tested at Above & Beyond shows such as Red Rocks in Colorado, EDC Las Vegas, and Printworks in London, the track soon became a mainstay in their sets and a highly-sought after ID. Last year, Above & Beyond achieved RIAA Gold certification on the track, ‘Don’t Leave’, from the 2019 ambient album ‘Flow State,’ and were the only British DJs to sell out two consecutive nights at Printworks as part of the iconic London venue’s closing season. They also returned to Red Rocks Amphitheatre to helm two shows alongside label stars from Anjunabeats and Anjunadeep and made an appearance at Insomniac’s Escape Halloween festival in California. The trio’s last single, ‘Over Now’ with Seven Lions and Opposite The Other, achieved Top 30 status on the Billboard and Mediabase radio charts in the US and earned spins on Sirius XM BPM, iHeart Evolution radio and over 600 local stations worldwide. GRAMMY-nominated singer and songwriter Zöe Johnston first collaborated with Above & Beyond on 2004’s ’No One On Earth.’ She’s since co-written and featured on every Above & Beyond dance and acoustic studio album, which includes beloved hits like ‘Good For Me,’ ‘You Got To Go,’ ‘Love Is Not Enough,’ ‘We’re All We Need’ and ‘Reverie.’ The accomplished British vocalist has also written and recorded songs with the likes of Faithless, Bent, and Delirium and racked up over 12 million combined streams across her catalog in 2023 alone. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2G7bII2T-ec

    • Seven Lions & Andrew Bayer Unveil New Collab ‘Places I Belong’ seven-lions-andrew-bayer-2024

      Seven Lions & Andrew Bayer Join Forces with Vocalist Fiora on Hot New Collaboration. “Places I Belong” is the second collaboration from dance producers Seven Lions and Andrew Bayer. Longing piano chords and vocals from beloved Seven Lions vocal collaborator Fiora transition into nostalgic and simultaneously modern eurodance verses. The track marks the lead single off Andrew Bayer’s debut Ophelia EP and corresponding winter tour. Andrew Bayer has been responsible for the most experimental and ambitious artist albums on Anjunabeats. His 2011 debut ‘It’s Artificial’ merged glitch-hop, electronica and prog house, while on 2013’s ‘If It Were You, We’d Never Leave’ he pushed the envelope further with a critically-acclaimed journey of electronica and sunny, instrumental hip-hop. 2018’s ‘In My Last Life’ wove the emotive songwriting of Ane Brun and Alison May into a modern alt-pop masterpiece. His fourth studio album, ‘Duality’, is one of his most ambitious works to date; climbing to #1 on the US / Canada iTunes Dance chart and attracting support from Sirius XM’s Diplo and Liquid Todd, BBC Radio 1’s Annie Nightingale and KCRW’s Jason Bentley. Last year, Andrew followed up the success of ‘Duality’ with a far-reaching North American tour and made an appearance at Above & Beyond’s Group Therapy Weekender festivities at The Gorge. He also joined Seven Lions on his ‘Journey III’ tour with stops at The Greek Theatre, MGM Hall, Avant Gardner (Brooklyn Mirage), Downtown Las Vegas Event Center, Santa Barbara Bowl and beyond. Washington-based producer Seven Lions has never had an issue pushing the boundaries of electronic music to fulfill his creative vision. Catching a break after winning a Beatport remix contest in 2012 with his dubstep-focused version of Above & Beyond’s “You Got To Go”, Seven Lions, born Jeff Montalvo, garnered support from the likes of Anjunabeats, Casablanca, OWSLA, Viper Recordings, Republic Records, and Monstercat over the past ten years. After releasing on a plethora of labels, Seven Lions created Ophelia Records in 2018 which has since become a leading independent label in the melodic bass subgenre. Since its emergence only four years ago, the label has already made an imprint in the dance music scene having been voted Dancing Astronaut’s Label Of The Year in 2021, releasing multiple #1 iTunes Dance albums and hosting festival stage takeovers and showcases around the country. His productions have seen stages at world-renowned festivals including Ultra Music Festival, Electric Daisy Carnival, Electric Zoo, and HARD.
