DrMindbender was hooked on techno on a cold winter morning in 1994...from the first night Romper Room spit him out onto the sidewalk on Market street at 6am... 
Having "grown up" amongst Legendary San Diego DJs like Jon E Thin, Paolo, Mark E Quark, G.Maxim, Alien Tom, Jef Scott and Steve Pagan, B-Side, Merlyn... Visited by some of Los Angeles' and San Francisco's best underground DJs like DJ Dan, Christopher Lawrence, Xavier, Thee-O, Ron D Core, Garth, Thomas, and many others...it didn't take long for a tenderfoot raver to find enough of his own vinyl to become DrMindbender... 
Thanks to Equinox Records, Elevator Records, and United Records, DrMindbender percolated in the deepest House, Techno, and Trance the scene could offer... 
Teaming up with DJ Device, Energy Quotient was born and after a run of underground gatherings from '98 to '99 from the SD metro area to the Borrego desert with DJs including Christoper Lawrence, Brownie, Brad and Ben Annand, DrMindbender turned to producing tracks... 
In 2004 David Gates moved to the San Francisco bay area to re-invent his music, expand the horizon of opportunities, and most importantly, start his family with beloved wife Adrienne. Together, David and Adrienne created Golden Gate Sound and began building a platform to bring light and joy to people everywhere... 
Having shared the decks with some of San Francisco's revered DJs like M3, Jeno, Solar, DJ Adnan, Michael Liu, Harry Who, Alland Byallo, David Gates and Golden Gate Sound are set to help elevate human conciousness to the next level!
