We hope you enjoy this short piece about how Darren Tate and I started working together. If you’ve enjoyed the album, we’d love it if you could share it with your friends, and subscribe to the JODA KZbin channel. Thanks, Jono

Is it just me or do I get Kraftwerk vibes and I love it.

[@hussainsauce4059]

Amazing album and a great new team up. Innovation with this album is incredible, firing off new sounds.

JODA IS MAKING INCREDIBLE MUSIC

[@ProfessorNormal-EU]

Thank you for being epic JODA

[@LukeDune]

Cool video you guys are an inspiration to us young producers coming up thank you

[@posmusic]

Great stuff, these guys rock!!!!

[@discoverystudioworld9093]

So i'm obsessed with Above & Beyond & Darren's works...i think for me DT8 Project-Destination the Above & Beyond Remix still remains near perfection to this day....being a bit obsessed with movie composers and compositions from movies when an Above & Beyond flier came through to my email my jaw dropped....Above & Beyond & Darren Tate!....of course i immediately bought the soundtrack...and then much to my shock a flier about JODA flew into my email....i turn 50 next year and when i heard We Find Ourselves...i felt like a big kid again....there is something about a 'pure' sound of trance which i love with a passion and you guys produce that sound in spades....thank you so much guys JODA is definitely on my radio station and We Find Ourselves is currently in 'my listeners Top 40' as are other DT8 tracks & Jono's Summer of '95 Mix of Screwdriver...my obsession for trance has lasted over 20 years...long may it continue.

[@neilvantwuijver983]

love the album! Thank you for this great addition to the anjunabeats legacy 😍

[@JESUS--NEVER--tAPPED]

You guys are musical geniuses!! “Breaking Down Walls” is probably the BEST song I’ve ever heard! 🔥🔥🔥 Keep up the great work! May God bless! 👍💪

Let The Light Shine In is an all time trance classic. Love the new album.

[@martingee1467]

Unbelievable album and been on repeat constantly...so good

[@jls5480]

WEEE FINNDDDDDD OURSELVES……

[@InterruptedByFireW]

Amazing to see you both come back together after so long! I don't doubt JODAs imminent success, but even if it came to nothing - to be able to spend that time together having fun, loving what you're doing... that's all that matters! Now, where are my flash website JODA mixer/decks?

[@darrentatemusic]

Best get on the case to Anjuna about them ;)

[@jls5480]

COMING ALIVE!!!!

[@repo8030]

[@atomicfire909]

Love this!

[@xGorefieldx]

Let The Light Shine In!!! 😭😍🙌

[@natescott1015]

You guys are awesome; your album is absolutely incredible! "Try" and "Smile" are especially hypnotizing, but I seriously love every track. Can't wait to see/hear more in the future!

[@YTB952]

Absolutely fantastic album …I can’t stop listening to it . Always been a massive fan of you both , but this for me is a brilliantly put together album . Think the 80s vibe is cool too xx thanks lads

[@francescovalenti7595]

Perfection

[@adamnavelofficial7999]

Thanks for this, very interesting to see whats behind the music in minds of authors. Seen Jupiter - 8 in this interview have a feeling that this one might be one of the synth you are worked with in this album. Who does the sound mixing and mastering, are you worked both on it, or someone was more focused on arrangement and other one on mixing? Listened it on different devices and on any kind of speakers it's just sounds great. "Let the Light Shine in" still love that tune a golden age of trance music.

[@jls5480]

CLOSER IS AMAZING

[@Arcsprite]

Nocturnal Creatures was special

[@yolamontalvan9502]

Your music is beautiful and very relaxing. But do you realize that Joda is a bad word in Spanish? For example “No Joda” means “F Off”. I use your music to relax. Keep up the good work.

[@pinchevulpes]

Hope the return of Michael cassette wasn’t killed for this project…

[@ashredding_]

Can never get enough of this sort of content and getting a small yet super interesting insight into how all this magic comes together. The album, still in its infancy has been listened to so much that i'm now finding new sounds within the tracks that only reinforce my thoughts and belief as to how good this album is and how brilliant Jono & Darren are at what they do and how they do it. Thanks guys. 🤍🔺️

[@AWL60]

Spent the last few days being really entertained by this album of yours, well done !

[@repo8030]

Spark is brilliant!
