Super8 + Tab are the antidote to anyone who says the trance scene has gone stale. By combining dark and driving progressive elements with more traditional melodic trance sounds, the pair have created a unique sound that has had the worlds A-list DJs clamouring for their music.
Super8 + Tab's "Helsinki Scorchin" is arguably the biggest instrumental trancer of the year so far its not often you get a 1000+ crowd singing along to an instrumental but thats exactly what happened at the recent Anjuna Night in London! and has featured on 15 compilations to date, including the latest from Tiesto, Above & Beyond and Armin van Buuren.
The follow-up, "Won't Sleep Tonight" threatens to be just as good, with Global Underground's Ben Lost drafted in to provide a druggy and Underworld-esque vocal backdrop to the dirty and driving groove.
Before these two monsters and debut collaboration "First Aid", Super8 & Tab had been building the kind of production CV that will soon see them being mentioned in the same breath as the likes of Tiesto, Paul van Dyk and Above & Beyond at the pinnacle of the trance scene.
Super8's (aka Miika Eloranta) debut single "Alba/Dawn" is Anjunabeats biggest selling release to date, and together with the follow-up "Cre8", has featured heavily in the sets of the worlds top trance jocks over the past few years. Meanwhile, such is the demand for Super8's latest single, "Get Off", that Anjunabeats received personal requests for an early copy from both Tiesto and Armin.
Super8 also forms one half of the mighty Aalto, alongside Above & Beyonds Paavo Siljamäki. Their 5th single, the massive electro-tinged "5" is currently tearing up clubland, while the 4 previous Aalto singles, "Liquid Sweep", "Rush", "Taurine" and "Resolution" have each become global club anthems in their own right. "Rush" in particular blew up so big that the guys received a personal invite from Paul van Dyk to perform at his legendary Casino night in Berlin.
Tab (aka Janne Mansnerus) has also released solo production, with "Unforgiven" and the "Verso/Radiate E.P." on Anjunabeats plus his work as AR52 on Joof earning him many new fans around the world. A technically brilliant DJ with over 10 years experience as one Finlands top trance jocks, Tab's understanding of dance floor mechanics has perfectly complemented Super8's peerless production skills.
The pair have produced their best work together and have been playing out as a duo with great success, notably at Anjunabeatss hugely popular Anjuna Nights which have taken place at venues such as Turnmills, Canvas, Passion and Godskitchen.
Building on the worldwide following for their productions, Super8 + Tab are now ready to unleash their pioneering sound on dancefloors around the globe.
