Anjunabeats is proud to present the first official remix of Above & Beyond’s ‘Quicksand (Don’t Go)’ with longtime vocal collaborator Zoë Johnston, reimagined by GRAMMY®-nominated Canadian electronic duo Sultan + Shepard.

Mainstays of Lane 8’s This Never Happened imprint and hosts of their acclaimed Dialekt Radio, Sultan + Shepard have become synonymous with emotionally charged, cinematic melodic house and progressive productions. Their remix of ‘Quicksand’ leans into a darker, driving energy, while preserving the ethereal textures and timeless vocal delivery that Zoë Johnston is beloved for.

Sultan + Shepard Reimagine Above & Beyond’s “Quicksand”

“Above & Beyond have always embodied the spirit of melodic, emotional dance music that first inspired us to start writing music. Remixing Quicksand gave us the chance to honor that legacy while reshaping it into something that feels authentic to our own journey and the music we play today.” — Ned Shepard & Ossama Al Sarraf, Sultan + Shepard

The release arrives as Sultan + Shepard prepare to join Above & Beyond on the band’s Bigger Than All Of Us North American amphitheater tour, supporting the group’s fifth studio album. The duo will appear alongside A&B at Fiddler’s Green Amphitheater in Denver, CO, on Saturday, September 27.

Bigger Than All of Us, released this summer on Anjunabeats, is the group’s first full-length electronic studio album in seven years and features a cast of collaborators both familiar and new, including Zoë Johnston, Richard Bedford, Justine Suissa, Malou, Victoria Horn, and Sam Burger. The record reflects Above & Beyond’s deeply rooted belief in collective joy, empathy, and emotional expression—values that have remained at the heart of their music for over two decades.

Above & Beyond’s Legacy in Electronic Music

Above & Beyond, or Jono, Tony, and Paavo, as they are better known to their legions of fans worldwide, have been at the forefront of electronic dance music for two decades.

Founders of the iconic Anjunabeats and Anjunadeep record labels and hosts of a weekly radio show that reaches millions of dance lovers every Friday (Group Therapy), the trio has earned two GRAMMY™️ nominations for the anthems “Northern Soul” feat. Richard Bedford and “We’re All We Need” feat. Zoë Johnston. In 2018, the band’s fourth electronic album, ‘Common Ground,’ debuted at number three on the Official Billboard 200 Albums Chart.

Described by UK music bible Q Magazine as “the world’s biggest cult band,” Above & Beyond’s enviable list of sold-out shows includes headline performances at historic venues like Madison Square Garden in NYC, Hollywood Bowl, The Sydney Opera House, Royal Albert Hall London, and Red Rocks Amphitheatre, as well as record-breaking turnouts for their own festival events on LA’s Huntington Beach and at The Gorge Amphitheatre in Washington State.

Songwriters and producers first, and DJs second, Above & Beyond’s unwavering commitment to their craft has fuelled a career that many electronic artists today might only dream of: four acclaimed electronic studio albums, 16 compilation albums (Anjunabeats Volume series), two ‘acoustic’ albums, and a stand-alone album for yoga and meditation – not to mention innumerable club cuts and dance remixes.
