# OceanLab

OceanLab (or Above & Beyond presents OceanLab) is a vocal trance group formed in 2000 in London. The group consists of vocalist Justine Suissa and the three members of Above & Beyond: Jono Grant, Paavo Siljamäki, and Tony McGuinness.

## History
### 2000s

The group's first single, released in 2001, was "Clear Blue Water", which was remixed by several artists, including Ferry Corsten. The track peaked at #48 in the UK Singles Chart in April 2002. The second single, "Sky Falls Down", was released in 2002 and remixed by Armin van Buuren. The third single, "Beautiful Together", was released in 2003 and was remixed by Seraque, Silvester, and Signum. Their fourth single, considered to be their breakthrough, was "Satellite", which was playlisted by BBC Radio 1 and reached #19 in the UK charts in May 2004. The track remains the highest-charting single by OceanLab or Above & Beyond.
On 7 April 2008, the single "Sirens of the Sea" was released, including remixes by Sonorous, Cosmic Gate, Maor Levi, and Kyau & Albert.
On 10 June 2008, OceanLab's debut album, Sirens of the Sea, was announced on the Anjunabeats website with a release date of 21 July 2008. The single "Miracle" appeared a week earlier, on 14 July 2008. Included on the single are Above and Beyond's Club Mix of tracks, as well as remixes by Martin Roth, Michael Cassette, and Fletch. The "Sirens of the Sea Remixed" album, released in 2009, includes the most successful remixes of OceanLab singles "Satellite", "Sky Falls Down", and "Clear Blue Water".

### 2010s

On 30 January 2014 McGuinness and Siljamäki confirmed via Reddit that the artist name OceanLab would no longer be used on future productions, with Justine Suissa now being identified as a part of Above & Beyond.
After a full-year hiatus, the group announced their return with a new single at Above & Beyond's ABGT150 concert in September 2015. On 26 September 2015, however, Above & Beyond featured a new surprise OceanLab production at ABGT150 in Sydney, titled Another Chance. It was released as a single containing the original mix and the Above & Beyond Club Mix on 4 November 2016.
On 24 September 2016 Above & Beyond featured a new OceanLab production at ABGT200 in the Ziggo Dome, Amsterdam. The title of this new single is "Alright Now." The Above & Beyond Club Mix of the track was originally released on Anjunabeats Volume 13, but was released as a standalone single on 12 May 2017. It was released on Above & Beyond's 2018 album, Common Ground.

### 2020s

Justine with Above & Beyond have collaborated to release a "Almost Home" track in 2021. It was the first collab after a 4-year period of falling out.
In 2023, a limited edition music set (featuring Seven Lions, with remixes of greatest hits), to commemorate a second decade of their existence, was released.
