"It’s a rare and wonderful thing to be blown away by an album on first listen. And that’s exactly what Super8 & Tab’s debut artist album does." Mixmag

Every great artist has their first crowning moment; their coming of age. After years of DJ support by everyone from Above & Beyond to Armin van Buuren, that moment is now for Super8 & Tab. Completing their transition from architects of the most innovative modern trance to true album artists, the Finnish duo are here with ‘Empire’ – an 11 track journey that will sit as easily on a lazy Sunday afternoon home stereo as it will a laser-shot 3am stadium on a Saturday night.

Firmly established as Anjunabeats’ best selling artists behind Above & Beyond, the humble pair have been building up to this moment ever since joining forces in 2005. As each year has passed, accolades like their IDMA Best Compilation (‘Anjunabeats Worldwide 01’), Beatport No.1 chart positions and five star reviews in global dance bibles like Mixmag and DJ Mag have become increasingly regular propositions.

Always placing quality above quantity, their creations have stood out from the crowd time and again. Side-stepping the obvious and the overblown, releases like their definitive ‘Helsinki Scorchin’, the ethereal epic ‘Suru’ and the hypnotic, electro-twisted ‘Elektra’ have all taken their individual paths, but each one bears the classic Super8 & Tab hallmarks; heart-lifting melody, a wide-screen warmth of sound, solid groove and intricate, innovative and unrushed production values.

On ‘Empire’ their expansive visions are at last given full room to breath. Far from just a collection of dancefloor tracks, Super8 & Tab have crafted an LP of genuine depth and diversity as they head into the realm of powerful song for the first time.

A diversion from the standard cheesy trance vocals so many favour, Jan Burton’s searching, distinctive tones feature on tracks like the bubbling groover ‘Slow To Learn’, the emotional rollercoaster of ‘Mercy’ and the edgy, subtle title track ‘Empire’. A former James Holden collaborator, Julie Thompson graces the blissful, gentle prog-trance of ‘My Enemy’, Alyna is on the swooning St. Etienne-styled electronic-pop of ‘Perfect Day’ and Betsie Larkin contributes a sassy vocal on the upbeat ‘Good Times’.

For fans of Super8 & Tab’s instrumental melodic trance there is still plenty to savour. The strafing Jean Michelle-Jarre-esque melodies of recent single ‘Black Is The New Yellow’ (with fellow Finn Anton Sonin) is Super8 & Tab at their sweeping, soaring best. On ‘Irufushi’ they blend the pacey groove of the Swedish house sound with the stadium sweeping euphoria of climatic trance, while ‘Bliss’ is an unashamed, energised homage to the rushing waves of the ’99 trance era.

The album closes, however, on the appropriately reflective ‘Free Love’ – a beautiful, bittersweet downbeat number with Jan Burton. The perfect finish, it rounds off arguably the most complete trance-influenced artist album since Above & Beyond’s own ‘Tri-State’ in 2006.

Already responsible for two of the most popular EPs on Anjunabeats year in his euphoric 'Elf' and the recent Who.Is EP with Raz Nitzan, Dutch trance legend Bart Claessen continues his rich vein of form with '90 Nights Of Summer' - a warm melodic trancer of the highest order.

On the remix, German star Robert Burian delivers a busy, groove-fuelled remix with plenty of rhythm and interesting electro-edged twists on the melody.

Completing the package, we revisit the aforementioned 'Elf' thanks to Bart's previously unreleased Radio Edit and a uplifting proggy rework by Fine Taste for the earlier hours or less frenetic floors. 
And, included as a cheeky bonus game beat, is Bart’s own NES Returning remix of the same track – best known as the soundtrack to the recent Bart-man computer game.

Avalon At Large GO! - Day 2 Line up

Friday September 24th

Avalon At Large GO! - Day 2 Line up

Chemical Brothers
DJ set

Since they first met two decades ago, the Chemical Brothers have been on a mission. Their aims: to find the sounds no one had heard before, to push their music as far as it will go, to make each record fresher and more exciting than the last. And from "Song To The Siren" in 1992 to the brain-blitzing mutant psychedelia of their third album, Surrender, that's what they've done. On the way they've invented (and transcended) big beat, toured the globe, remixed the world and his brother, soundtracked some of the messier nights out of the last few years and made some of the most influential music of the decade.

The studio-single "Setting Sun" climbed to the #1 spot on The Official U.K. chart and broke The Billboard Hot 100 Stateside.The Chemical Brothers' second studio-effort, "Dig Your Own Hole", arrived in the spring of 1997 going straight to #1 in the British chart and hitting #14 on The Billboard Top 200 chart; Elektro Bank" was released off the album in autumn and reached the #17 in the British Singles chart; "Dig Your Own Hole" eventually went on to sell over 2 million units worldwide. >>> More information

Empire of the Sun

Making their Singapore debut, Empire Of The Sun continue the rise of their international success with sold out shows in both Los Angeles and New York.

So what is Singapore in for? Considering that they managed to upstage Lady Gaga's costumes at Lollapalooza it has to be a real treat. Helmed by Luke Steele and Nick Littlemore, Empire of the Sun's set turned into Lolla's biggest -- and most unexpected -- rave with the audience decked out from head-to-toe in neon glowsticks. >>> More information

Make the Girl Dance

Paris-based electro producers Make The Girl Dance have sealed their reputation for making flashy, must-watch videos.
Comprised of Greg Gozo & Pierre Mathieu, who have produced Baby Baby Baby, an electro glam track that bleeps, squelches and scratches in all the right places. >>> More information

Thursday September 23rd

Avalon At Large GO! - Day 1 Line up

Flo Rida

Called the new "It" of hip-hop music, Flo Rida is a well known rapper from Carol City , gaining fame for "Low" which featuresT-Pain, and is his debut single. "Low" was included in the Billboard Chart (Hot 100), starting from the 91st spot during its first week of release, and moving to #64, then finally reaching the 4th spot on the chart. Radio stations and iTunesdownloads proved the popularity of Flo Rida's music, not to mention so many ringtone requests for "Low." It is no wonder why Flo Rida may be viewed as one of the future "kings of hip-hop".

FloRida is primed to burst on to the scene with his versatile lyricism in tow. FloRida's exceptional creativity-a fresh and energetic flow, escorted by a melodic delivery- ensures there is never a dull moment. >>> More information

Above & Beyond

Above & Beyond is a British trance music group formed in 2000 by Jono Grant, Tony McGuinness, and Paavo Siljamaki. The trio are popular in the trance scene for their uplifting trance productions and collaborations with several vocalists. They also host their own weekly radio show, Trance Around the World. The group's tracks are regularly played by well-known DJs, such as Tiesto, Armin van Buuren, Ferry Corsten, ATB, Judge Jules and Paul van Dyk. On 28 October 2009 DJ Magazineannounced the results of their annual Top 100 DJ Poll, with Above & Beyond placed at #4, for the second year in a row. >>> More information

Santigold

As a solo project with a revolving door of members, the heart and face of Santigold is vivacious frontwoman Santi White. White uses her common backgrounds as production-savvy musicians to make bombastic, bass-oriented songs that fuse punk, reggae, grime, and indie rock with electro. Tribal island rhythms merge with flavorful digital chirps and blips, culminating in an original sound.

White was spotted by Martin Heath, who made her an offer to record a solo record on Lizard King, the label responsible for the successful promotion of the Killers. White and John Hill (her former counterpart from ska-punk band Stiffed) decided to pair up, and create the project Santogold. They continuously join forces with likeminded musicians -- including Freq Nasty,Disco D, Switch, Spank Rock's Naeem, Xxxchange, Steel Pulse guitarist Clifford Moonie Pusey, and none other than M.I.A. herself. >>> More information

Steve Angello
(Swedish House Mafia)

A Greek-Swedish DJ, producer, and record label owner. He is part of a three person group dubbed the Swedish House Mafia.

As a small boy Steve was introduced to the wonders and delights of the Athen’s club culture and underworld in which his father moved. Deeply enthused by all of this and, as it emerged, incredibly talented, Steve quickly honed his turntablism skills, fusing hip-hop, breakbeats and 70’s classics until he won himself his first club residency in Stockholm. Under-age (16) and out way past his bedtime, Steve was earning a not-so-honest crust to support his family alone. Whatever, he was seriously rocking that club week in week out!

Steve Angello's claim to fame came when he released his remix of Eurythmics "Sweet Dreams" in late 2004. Since then he has exploded onto the house music scene. In 2007 his eternal club banger, a remix of Robin S "Show Me Love" was released on Data Records. >>> More information

Major Lazer

Major Lazer is the digital reggae/dancehall project of Diplo (Philadelphia's Wes Pentz) and Switch (London's Dave Taylor), two globetrotting, tastemaking DJ/producers whose previous collaborations notably included production work for M.I.A. and Santigold. Recorded at Jamaica's Tuff Gong studios, the debut album “Guns Don't Kill People... Lazers Do” featured vocal contributions from noted dancehall stars including Vybz Cartel, Busy Signal, Mr. Vegas, and Turbulence as well as Santigold,Nina Sky, and rapper Amanda Blank.

Much anticipation and online chatter were fueled in part by the novelty video/song "Zumbi," featuring the comedian Andy Milonakis, the frenetic, legitimate lead single "Hold the Line," and a goofy, invented backstory about a renegade Jamaican commando with prosthetic laser arms who was allegedly a Zombie War veteran and vampire-fighting C.I.A. operative (but was demonstrably a rampant Twitter user). The album was released in June of 2009 as a joint venture between Downtown Records and Diplo's Mad Decent label. >>> More information

Steve Aoki

DJ Steve Aoki Kid Millionaire has risen from throwing impromptu concerts in his living room while a student at UC Santa Barbara in the late '90s to becoIme one of the most sought after DJs in the country. Deemed the music tastemaker by those in the know, his ear for music paired with his ability to drop party rocking beats has championed dance floors night after night.

Steve Aoki is a celebrity DJ and also the founder of Dim Mak Records, which counts leading indie rock bands such as Gossip,Bloc Party, and Battles among its stable of signees.

n 2007 he released his first official mix CD, Pillowface and His Airplane Chronicles, on Thrive Records. Featuring tracks by Justice, Klaxons, Mystery Jets, Peaches, Datarock, Yelle, Franz Ferdinand, Bloc Party, and Scanners -- most of them remixed -- Pillowface and His Airplane Chronicles is fairly representative of the Aoki's renown as a tastemaking dance-party DJ rather than a skillful turntablist. >>> More information

Shogun feat. Emma Lock - Run To My Rescue

Shogun Feat Emma Lock - Run To My Rescue

Maybe I could just choose to ignore this
Let it fade like water through the sand
Maybe I cold just leave this behind me
Somethings you'll never understand
Cause this is such a fine line
A fine line to cross

And this is not a question
weather you will or you won't
You either have it or you don't

Our loves a stone throw away
We get so near
But we've still so far away
Concealed behind all our floored disguises

We're even here at the turn of the tide
Words escape
Like ocean ray of lights
They say you hear it before you see it coming
But you got to see it to believe it with your eyes

Baby are we dreaming
Through this sky free falling
I'll never stop lovin you
Run to my rescue
I'll never stop lovin you
Run to my rescue

Our loves a stone throw away
We get so near
But we're still so far away
Concealed behind all our floored disguises

We're even here at the turn of the tide
Words escape
Like ocean ray of lights
They say you hear it before you see it coming
But you got to see it to believe it with your eyes

Baby are we dreaming
Run to my Rescue
