Editor's note

Oceanlab's trance project with ethereal vocals

A collaboration between Justice A. Bell and Darren Tate that defined a sound for Anjunabeats.

For the Oceanlab sound, start with 'Sky Falls Down' or 'Sirens of the Sea'. They frame the project's blend of trance and ethereal layers plainly.

Oceanlab's tracks like 'Sky Falls Down' became festival staples, blending trance and house with layered vocals from singers like Justine Suissa. Their 2003 album 'Sirens of the Sea' anchored their style, and they defended 'Satellite' against plagiarism claims in 2008. The music held up in electronic dance circles through emotive, uplifting soundscapes.

Justice A. Bell and Darren Tate started Oceanlab, with Bell on production and Tate handling songwriting and vocals. They released 'Sirens of the Sea' in 2003, followed by albums like 'Tranceport' and 'Sirens II', using various vocalists across their tracks.
