Gabriel & Dresden vs. Francis Prève
"Servo vs. Colossus"

After a year of sold-out reunion shows crisscrossing the world from Hollywood to Mumbai, legendary EDM duo Gabriel & Dresden kick off 2012 with "Servo vs. Colossus" - a collaboration with synth guru, Francis Prève.

"Servo vs. Colossus" is a knockout tour-de-force that fuses electro with techno, crossing so many stylistic boundaries as only this trio can. Originating as a mashup of two of Prève's original tracks, "Servo" and "Colossus", Josh & Dave have placed their unmistakable thumbprint on the finished product, resulting in a six-minute opus that has served as a centerpiece of G&Ds sets since last summer.

First appearing as an edited version on Gabriel & Dresden's now classic 2011 mix CD, "Mixed For Feet Volume 1" (Armada), "Servo vs. Colossus" garnered instant acclaim from both G&D and Prève fans alike last fall. Considering the amount of buzz that surrounded the collaboration, the trio has opted to release the full length and completely re-mixed version of "Servo vs. Colossus" on Prève's shiny new imprint, Academik, to launch the label's 2012 release schedule with a bang.

Starting out hard with Gabriel & Dresden's signature toms-plus-trance drum sound, "Servo vs. Colossus" grabs the floor and refuses to let go, even as Prève's assault of analog hooks skyrocket the groove to dizzying heights. Then, after a few wholly unexpected twists and turns in the journey, G&D deliver not one, but two brilliant breakdowns keeping the energy at peak intensity throughout the trip.

Coming from a group of artists who have collectively made their mark in the club world, with Gabriel & Dresden's decade-long string of hits like "As The Rush Comes" and "Tracking Treasure Down", as well as Prève's recent classics, "Yin" and "Yang" (with Wolfgang Gartner), "Servo vs. Colossus" is poised to pack floors from its January release on Beatport all the way through WMC and SXSW. 

"This track oozes class borne of years smashing dancefloors across the word. Dance music used to be about innovation and creativity, about surprising us with sounds so imaginative we didn’t even know they existed. This a return to that tradition, a prickly, annoyingly catchy journey that unwinds with deliberate ease. Dance music that makes you dance." - Dancing Astronaut

Beatport Release Date: January 30, 2012
