The group's initial success was aided in part by popular trance musicians remixing their original work. The first single to be released in 2001 was the song "Clear Blue Water" which was remixed by several artists, but the most successful remix was done by Ferry Corsten. 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. The single that is considered to be their break-through track is "Satellite" their fourth single which was released in 2004.
On 24 August 2007 "Breaking Ties" (Above & Beyond's Analog Haven Mix), was featured on TATW #178. Audio footage of "Breaking Ties" started to surface on YouTube around October 2007. On 1 November 2007, Miracle also appeared on YouTube. Although this was given as the title on the Above & Beyond official forum, at the time the title was unconfirmed.
McGuinness and Siljamäki of OceanLab discussed the album during an interview in Riga, Latvia: We've been experimenting with a completely new sound - one of the tracks we're working on right now features a 56 piece mouse choir. We went diving in Formentera too to record some noises from the dolphins.
On 14 March 2008, "Sirens of the Sea" (Above & Beyond Club Mix) premiered on TATW #207. It was presented as one of the new singles for the upcoming album. Prior to this, "Sirens of the Sea" (Kyau & Albert Remix) was released on Above and Beyond's Anjunabeats Volume 3.
On 7 April 2008, the single "Sirens of the Sea" was released. New remixes by Sonorous, Cosmic Gate, as well as the Kyau & Albert remix were included. Also included was a .WAV file of Maor Levi's remix of "Sirens of the Sea".
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 in 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's three most popular tracks that had only been released as singles - Satellite, Sky Falls Down and Clear Blue Water.
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.
On 26 September 2015, however, Above & Beyond featured a new surprise Oceanlab production at ABGT150 in Sydney, Australia. The title of this new trance single is Another Chance.

Beautiful Together
Oceanlab Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sunrise
Looking out across the bay
And in your eyes
I see all I want to say
And now you love me
The clouds above me
Couldn't stop the way I'm feeling
Together we are beautiful, I miss you
I see clearly
I am not afraid to fall
And with you near me
I can rise above it all
And now you love me
The clouds above me
Couldn't stop the way I'm feeling
Together we are beautiful, I miss you
"Beautiful Together" by Oceanlab is a song that talks about love and how together, people can overcome everything. The lyrics start off with a beautiful scenery, a sunrise over the bay, and the singer sees all they want to say in their lover's eyes. The singer then confesses that they are in love and that even the clouds couldn't stop the way they feel. With their lover, the singer feels unstoppable and is not afraid to fall, because they know that with their lover near, they can rise above anything. The song ends with the singer confessing their love and how beautiful they are together.
The song's message is about how love brings people together and how it can help overcome any obstacles. The beautiful scenery described in the lyrics symbolizes the beauty and hope that love brings to people. The lyrics also convey a sense of vulnerability, where the singer might have been hurt before, but now with their lover, they feel complete and protected.

Podróże małe i te duże
zabierają mnie ku górze
gdzie myśli są łagodne
i niosą mnie swobodnie
zamknięty w kokonie szczelnie
w nocy jak i we dnie
zapominam o problemach moich
w marzeniach zaplątany swoich
czy szanse mam na powrót panie
nie wiem co się z silnikiem stanie
szpera spina należycie
tu się dopiero zaczyna życie
trance dudni bassem
motyle w brzuchu nad pasem
księżyc świeci, kilometry lecą
latarnie na trasie magicznie świecą…
powiedz mi chłopie czy to jest raj
chciałbym przemierzyć tak każdy kraj
czy ten Tadek da sobie radę ?
w sumie to chuja na to kładę
człowiek w nostalgii jest zatracony
w drogę jak kuna zapatrzony
poczuj ten klimat przesłanie moje
miej co wspominać na stare lata swoje
