Above & Beyond are gearing up for the global release of their third artist album We Are All We Need and to promote the new LP, the UK based trance trio have released a video showing how the album was made. The video walks through the heart-felt process of writing and creating the album and how personal experiences, like death of Paavo's father, shaped the songs and the lyrics. It catches up with them in the studio with the singers who appear on the LP including Zoë Johnston, Alex Vargas and Justine Suissa, as well as their label signee and close collaborator, Andrew Bayer who helps with the production to bring the ideas to life.
The struggle for them has been balancing an incredibly busy touring schedule and needing to record music. One man stays behind to work on their radio show, Group Therapy and music, while two others go out and play shows. Paavo makes the point that everything in music seems to be about getting bigger and louder, but to him "the real power is in something small and elegant" via EDM.com.
We Are All We Need Is available now for purchase in the UK and will be out tomorrow, Jan. 20 in the US. It can be streamed via iTunes radio in the interim. Check out the tracklist for the album below. Watch the 10-minute documentary right here via Above & Beyond's YouTube channel.
