Finnish duo (Miika Eloranta and Janne Mansnerus) on Anjunabeats since 2005, credited with kickstarting the "hybrid trance" sound via "Helsinki Scorchin'" (2006).
Super8 & Tab are a Finnish trance production and DJ duo composed of Miika Eloranta (Super8) and Janne Mansnerus (Tab), producing together since 2005 and signed long-term to Above & Beyond's Anjunabeats. The duo helped kickstart the "hybrid trance" sound with their 2006 debut "Helsinki Scorchin'" and have since stood as one of the signature acts on the Anjunabeats roster, earning sustained support from Above & Beyond and the wider label core.
Their two artist albums on Anjunabeats — "Empire" (2010) and "Unified" (2014) — extended the catalogue across full-length progressive-trance form, while singles including "Irufushi", "Black Is The New Yellow", "Let Go" and "No Frontiers" became staples of the late-2000s and 2010s Anjunabeats live and radio circuit. The duo also curated "Super8 & Tab Presents: 20 Years Of Anjunabeats" as part of the label's anniversary editorial programme.
Sound Style
Hybrid trance — progressive arrangement DNA with electro-house punch in the rhythm section, harmonic content drawn from the late-90s/early-2000s Finnish trance lineage, and the polished melodic craft that the Anjunabeats editorial direction defined across the 2000s and 2010s.
