Suffice to say I fell head over heels (heals even?) for the emotion that underpins the ABB sound that night. Here we are 19 years later and they are selling out stadiums around the world. Couldn't be happier for them. Congratulations fellas on an amazing journey, here's to another 500. Thank you. 🙏🏾

    I love Above & Beyond and while I enjoy watching their annual big ABGT milestones, I must admit was expecting the same usual tunes and big hits. I was blown away from start to finish I could not step away without being scared I'd miss a good beat. I had a watch party at home; had my projector, lasers, JBL boombox and invited the whole family. Everyone loved it, even those who know nothing about trance music. Its reasons like this Above & Beyond is unlike any other. They bring people together, no matter the age or background. Thank you again A&B for the best set BY FAR!

      Nice! I remember showing my gf trance music for the first time, and she was like "Wow why haven't I heard this in the radio before, it's incredible!" I remember the first one I showed her was "James Dymond ft. Stine Grove- Birds of a feather", check it out if you haven't! It's one of my fav tunes ever :)

    WOW this set was unbelievable. A&B is absolutely back in their best form. I had such huge expectations for ABGT 500 and they delivered completely. Probably the best set I've seen from them in my 10+ years following.
    I was actually taken aback by some of the disappointment people expressed on social media afterwards. People were apparently complaining about "lack of lyrics", "too hard," "no sun and moon," no push the button, and nothing from we're all we need or common ground??? Then you quickly understand that these were the very 'fans' that grew too accustomed to the watered down-singalong-cookie cutter version of A&B that we got in the post 2015 commercial EDM scene. ABGT500 wasn't a new sound or switch in genre. This is what A&B and anjunabeats has always been at its core - hard, groovy basslines that will melt your face off mixed with both dark and uplifting, but not cringey, breakdowns. This isn't them following the recent dark/techno trend, but more them staying true to that timeless style from years ago now that dance music fans are less basic. Not to mention, ABGT shows are meant for unreleased stuff for the dedicated fans, not the typical festival act. This is the closest we've heard to the ASOT 500 type prog trance of the early 2010s. 350-450 seemed like they were moving back in that direction, but with 500, it seems that they are back completely. Amazing. No fanservice, just a real dj set.
    I will agree with some critics though that ABGT500 seemed to come and go as somewhat of an afterthought. Surprising for such a significant milestone show in such a significant city for dance music and A&B. The venues had a lot to do with it tbh - BOC stadium just feels like such a basic commercial venue where abgt was just 'another show'. The outdoor area for anjunadeep was cool with the coliseum behind it, but otherwise just meh and not very scenic for an open air. A little bit awkward and unnerving having these anjuna shows in south central LA. Also, I remember as we were walking out of the venue on sat, they turned on the lights almost immediately as if to tell us, "get out, no encore." Not only that, but the lineup as well - I thought everyone killed it, but where was I. Bluestone, Spencer Brown, Oli Smith, Sunny Lax, Genix? On the deep side, no big names like Tinlicker, Eli & Fur, Yotto, Ben Bohmer, Luttrell, Lane 8? Everything leading up to this event was a surprisingly underwhelming. I imagine Insomniac dropped the ball a little... i can think of at least 3 other venues that wouldve worked better for either show: the oceanside venue they used for daytrip, la historic park, row dtla or one of the factory 93 spaces in downtown. also, definitely not a coincidence that a bunch of those missing names were also booked in a bunch of 2022 west coast insomniac events likely with exclusive performance deals. These days more than ever, Insomniac really is a capitalistic giant.

      @@varunaX just because you didn’t recognize the classic songs they always play? Clearly you didn’t attend the event live or you’d have the exact opposite opinion. This set and video showing it is sick, but the video doesn’t do the production justice in how immersive, dark & smooth it was from start to finish. None of us knew the new songs, and that’s why we are so ecstatic they are being progressive bc they are leaders in progressive trance music; they enjoy trying out new sounds and it is a risk to not disappoint the fans that only come to hear Sun & Moon. Sort of constructs the talent of the artist, and I reckon that’s why they all thanked the audience at the very last song in this set to show grace and thanks to us fans for being open minded as they try new sounds for us to hear because we haven’t heard these soundscapes before. Lots of new sounds like electric guitar synthesized with electronic beats in the singles like Burma (aname AM remix) and Archons (by Sunny Lax)…
      It was by far the best show I’ve ever heard them play, and I’m so lucky I got to attend it live… I’ve seen dozens of sets by them, but I know people who wanted to only hesr classics would of course be disappointed by this set. That’s not the point of being progressive trance artists nor the motif of this event where they get to try out new progressive sounds for us to react to lol but to each their own…
