ANJUNABEATS takeover w/ ILAN BLUESTONE, JASON ROSS and GENIX in The Lab LA
The Anjunabeats takeover in The Lab LA is a three-hour group hug for the emotionally invested trance faithful, a marathon where the only thing more relentless than the arpeggios is our collective willingness to feel things deeply at 127 BPM. The vibe is one of shared, uplifting catharsis, a room united by a belief in the power of a well-placed supersaw. Technically, this is a seamless blend from Ilan Bluestone, Jason Ross, and Genix, holding an average BPM of 127.5 and weaving through keys like 12A, 3B, and 4B with harmonic precision. The energy profile is classic trance: a high low-end average (0.601) provides the driving foundation, while the mid-range (0.339) carries the melodic weight, and the restrained high-end (0.059) ensures clarity without harshness.
The mixing is swift and emotional, prioritizing flow over shock, building peaks through layered crescendos rather than abrupt drops. For the dedicated tracklist compilers, the riches are abundant. The journey begins with the timeless deadmau5 remix of Morgan Page’s ‘The Longest Road’. GSR & Metaverse’s ‘Stop Thinking, Try Feeling’ remix is a modern progressive gem, and the inclusion of Genghis Khan’s ‘Moskau’ is a wonderfully cheesy, hard-trance moment.
David Guetta & MORTEN’s ‘Dreams’ gets the Anjuna treatment, while Killmode’s ‘The Countdown’ delivers peak-time urgency. The mammoth 12-minute run of ‘Leave the World Behind’ is a masterclass in classic prog-house nostalgia, and the set closes on the soaring heights of Above & Beyond’s ‘Peace of Mind’ in its Summer of Love mix. From opening melancholy to closing euphoria, this is trance as a full-spectrum emotional journey.
