I had a couple A&B mixes that I downloaded and took with me to Afghanistan in 2012. I listened to this mix probably over 100 times because I would play it in my ear buds while trying to fall asleep and block out the chaos going on around me since I was working nights and sleeping in the day.
This is an essential mix I fell in love with and still listen to all the time. I’ve love Above & Beyond since my ears fell on them and listen this and their podcasts daily. I’ve seen them but definitely not enough, their music is inspiring and thought provoking. Well done Jonno, Paavo & Tony, you make me smile everyday as much as my other half does. By the the way one of my favourite tunes is on this set, Formula Rossa, I love this tune and takes me back to my younger days of all nighters, what a tune.
Love that smile as the melody for Superman comes in. This song brings me back to the days of grinding all night studying to get into medical school. I'm now three years OUT of medical school. Time flies man.
I've listened to your 2011 essential mix over 1000 times. To hear you bring it back brings chills. This mix is one of the best mixes I've ever heard. THANK YOU TONY and A&B for bringing your light forward.
I saw Above and Beyond and other Anjuna artists at Ice Palace in Miami in early 2011 in one night during Miami Music Week. To me, it’s the most legendary party. This mix brought me back to that night. I miss it all of the time
Listen to this a few times a year... a staple on any and every road trip of mine since 2012. Thank you Tony for recreating the most special 2hrs of music I know🙏🏼
Absolutely love this mix, it's been a favourite of mine for years and I still listen to it reguarly. I get goosebumps every time I hear the track with the School of Rock audio over it. Amazing.
totally one of my favorite Above and Beyond mixes. it lives on my running ipods. theres just so much greatness here. to see Tony jamming out and recreating it is priceless
I remember this set as if I had heard it for the first time yesterday. And I don't know whether to be happy about it and be proud or to worry about being old: D
This had such a profound impact on me. I listened to it, got hooked on electronic music and went down a long and beautiful path of meeting so many good people through live events.
One of the greatest mixes ever that took me down the path to another world of love and hope when ever i feel my mental health needs a boost this mix is my medicine thank you above and beyond and the Ajuna family
Listened to this mix for years after it came out first. As stated by others, probably one of the best mixes I've ever heard. Such flow, such vibes, one big journey. The voice overs from different movies mixed in perfectly add to the overall story and are just cherry on the cake. Essential mix of the year was well deserved. Masterpiece.
The 2004 and 2011 essential mix were before my time with A&B but no doubt stood the test of time as essential. The lovely opening & closing tracks mashed w/ spoken words & then just the absolute classy mix of tracks that follows. Thank you A&B, thank you Tony.
It’s amazing to think of the amount of times i have heard this set over the years but watching Tony recreate it takes it to a brand new level. Love it. Never knew I could enjoy watching someone DJ from their living room this much!
I remember that 2011 was the time when I first listened to Above & Beyond and Anjunabeats in general. At that time, I could still feel the progressive nuance of the music with a pumping bassline & kickdrum. We could still rarely see the typical drops with supersaw synth just like what we can easily listen to the Anjunabeats records these days. Nothing wrong with that. In reality, music is changing. And I am super happy with Above & beyond who is trying to be relevant with the current trend of electronic music.
Thank you guys so so SO MUCH. This sent me on the journey to A&B superfandom. Don't ever feel afraid of going with the big themes. You'll touch people you never know you could.
love this mix Tony, one of my favorites. thank you for sharing such great music in such a difficult time. looking forward to seeing you guys again when this all over. stay safe and take care
thank you some much for all of this great content! So happy that you are here supporting us in those challenging times. I am so grateful to have your music ,the ones from AB and all the ones the anjuna label.
Ok, this is nuts. I asked Tony a question about this mix on a Q&A and if he would consider doing something similar and now he went ahead and re-recorded it. I feel special! Haha

One of THE ALL TIME greatest mixes. I still listen to it every 6 months or so. Heres to another listen!
Me too.
I fell in love with A&B when I heard their 2004 Essential mix
@@Stpetersburginjurylawyersmp So did I
Great thinking guys
@@Stpetersburginjurylawyersmp 2004 was the pick for me.. thats the one I listen to repeatedly

What i wouldn't give just to see A&B live one more time. There is no better therapy than group therapy
This is empirically correct information.
This remains my number 1 essential mix. It doesn’t age
this mix may save lives
This made me so happy! Watch how Tony's dance changes around Min 26:10 to 26:40 as Matzo's Superman comes on!! 2011 was such a good year for music.
Matzo? What is he a jewish flatbread?
This is an essential mix I fell in love with and still listen to all the time. I’ve love Above & Beyond since my ears fell on them and listen this and their podcasts daily.

What a wonderful sound, I would give anything to listen to this live in 2021+!
This mix just perfectly captures an amazing chapter in my life. Thanks for the memories, Tony.
One of my favourite mixes of all time. Huge nostalgia and throwback
This episode has been so special to so many of us,,still get goosebumps,,
I still remember this podcast.. one of the best from A&B ever.. and that george coolney narration in the end
Love that smile as the melody for Superman comes in. This song brings me back to the days of grinding all night studying to get into medical school. I'm now three years OUT of medical school. Time flies man.
That "Counting The Points" drop never fails to get me up out of my seat and dancing
55:22 - one of the best moments in the whole world of EDM
I've listened to your 2011 essential mix over 1000 times. To hear you bring it back brings chills. This mix is one of the best mixes I've ever heard. THANK YOU TONY and A&B for bringing your light forward.

This is the best Essential Mix in BBC Radio1 history. Wonderful, a musical gem! Saludos desde Chile ;)
Listen to you often, over so many years...💕🤗
This mix has patience and class the likes of which I haven't heard in a very long time. Damn.
Hello from Puerto Rico. Tu musica es plenitud a mi alma 😍
I fell in love with A&B when I heard their 2004 Essential mix, I love this one as well
Oh my god, the 2004 Essential Mix was amazing. Loved the vocals and Hollywoods clips.
Absolute chills! This is a regular on my playlist, and for very good reason. It is just beautiful. Stay safe, create and the love will be returned x
Perfection. Thank you so much Tony we all really appreciate the time and thought you are giving everyone right now with amazing music like this.

This was a real treat, thanks so much for putting this together again!
56:00 so many feelings come back. I would love to just hear this mix once live!
I remember this set as if I had heard it for the first time yesterday. And I don't know whether to be happy about it and be proud or to worry about being old: D
26:30 this song used to (and still does) send chills down my spine.
Making the lockdown that much more bearable. Best set I've listened to in years!
Fell in love with A&B when i heard this mix in 2011. You guys are awesome, thank you for all the happiness and unity you spread throughout the world
Tony's moving culture - priceless 😄❤️

супер! Знакомы ритмы ,темы ..... кайф ! )))))
One of my favorite Essential Mixes for the song selection and film sound bytes. Very emotional overall.
I love these living room live DJ sets @Tony! Thanks for getting up at 6 in the morning to do them! They're fantastic study music.
The 2004 and 2011 essential mix were before my time with A&B but no doubt stood the test of time as essential. The lovely opening & closing tracks mashed w/ spoken words & then just the absolute classy mix of tracks that follows. Thank you A&B, thank you Tony.
Tony I love your dance moves man awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just what I needed tony. Sun is shining and the therapy is doing its job. Keep it up
Incredible set, deservedly essential mix of the year! This is timeless ❤

It’s amazing to think of the amount of times i have heard this set over the years but watching Tony recreate it takes it to a brand new level. Love it. Never knew I could enjoy watching someone DJ from their living room this much!
