Motorcycle - As The Rush Comes [Sweeping Strings Radio Edit]

Our friendship with Above & Beyond started in earnest when they heard our song "As The Rush Comes" - They loved it so much they wanted to do us a remix for it. We did the favor back to them with our remix of "No One on Earth." The #1 song of 2004 according to the listeners of Armin Van Buuren's A State of Trance radio show!

Above & Beyond - No One On Earth  (Gabriel & Dresden Remix Radio Edit)

Rachael Starr gave Dave a demo copy of this song in 2003. Dave immediately loved it but didn't really think Josh was going to so he never played it for him. But then one day almost two years later, Dave got up the balls to play it for Josh and, lo and behold, he loved it. So, in 2005 Gabriel & Dresden did a remix for this song which helped get it signed to Positiva Records as well as Ultra Music. 

One of our best-loved remixes to this day.



Rachael Starr - Till There Was You (Gabriel & Dresden Club Mix)

The seeds of Zocalo were planted in early 2003 when Dave handed a demo of "As The Rush Comes" to Armin when he was playing at the Mayan in downtown LA. The next day Armin called Dave to tell him how much he loved the song and that he wanted to sign it to the label he was starting called Armada Music, thus becoming one Armada's first releases.

At that point, Armin wanted to get into the studio with us and create an original song together. In the fall of 2003 we went to Armin's house in Leiden, NL to create something. We spent a week in his studio and made a demo titled "16 Days Ago"  that we liked but didn't love. And thus, it never was finished.

Two years later, Armin got a copy of our song "Arcadia" and once again, this opened the conversation for us to collaborate. After the Winter Music Conference that year, we all headed to San Leandro, California to create something together in the studio and this is exactly what was made that first week of April, 2005.

While we were making the song, Armin and Dave decided to walk down the street to the local Zocalo Coffeehouse to get an afternoon pick-me-up. Armin loved their coffee so much that he decided that "Zocalo" should be the name of the song. We both agreed and the rest is dance music history.






Armin van Buuren feat Gabriel & Dresden - Zocalo

In 2004, We released a mix compilation on Nettwerk Records called "Bloom" - it was a 2 disc affair which included some of our favorite songs we were playing in our sets along with our newest tracks and remixes. 

Once we had most of the songs compiled, we felt like the compilation was missing something. Something that "took you there" but also with a bit of soul and real instruments. 

So one day, on a lark, Josh decided to pick up his Fender Jazz bass and start playing some stuff. Dave immediately loved what Josh was playing and implored him to record what he was doing so it would not be lost in the ether of "great ideas never recorded."

What happened next was pretty incredible. We started building this song layer by layer. By the end of that day, we pretty much had it finished. A couple days of tweaks and it was done. 

We were so over the moon that we had made a song in such a short period of time that we didn't know what to call it. Enter Dave's realtor, Carol Robbiano, who was showing him a house on Arcadia Avenue in Oakland, CA. While driving to see the house, Dave played her the song. She suggested we name it "Arcadia" if Dave ended up liking the property. 

in 2005, we decided to start our own label called "Organized Nature" and we knew immediately that "Arcadia" would be our first release. For the single we updated a couple of things, re-mixed it to sound bigger and fatter and added a swing-y house beat. So the version of "Arcadia" on the "Bloom" compilation is technically a demo.

Nalin & Kane "Beach Ball" (Gabriel & Dresden's South Beach Vacation Remix)

We found out about this song on James Holden's Balance 05 Mix CD (still to this day one of the best mix CD's ever made)

So, when Ministry of Sound records asked us to remix it a year later, we jumped at the chance and treated it with kid gloves. 

What that breakdown does to a dancefloor...

Pryda vs Human League - Don't You Want Me Allein (Gabriel & Dresden electric zoo mashup)

Gift #3 goes way, way (throw) back to the summer of 2003.

the song "Imagination" which was released on Jes' solo debut album Disconnect in 2007 started out its life as a motorcycle song years earlier

"Imagination" was supposed to be the follow-up single to As The Rush Comes, but our label didn't hear it so we shelved it. And then Motorcycle took a permanent hiatus.

this version is real simple. Just Jes behind a microphone with an acoustic guitar. We added a little bit of effects to the overall track afterward and also the record pops.

it was featured as the last song on our 2004 "Bloom" mix compilation.

Motorcycle - Imagination - Acoustic Mix

For their next Organized Nature release Gabriel & Dresden look back in
time and revisit one of their most-loved classics, "Tracking Treasure
Down"

The original song was born in a chance meeting between the legendary
duo and the vocalist Molly Bancroft. She was a fan of Josh & Dave's
Depeche Mode "Here Is The House" bootleg and reached out on
MySpace.The boys in turn loved her voice and invited her to their Bay
Area studio. Little did anyone know at the time she would eventually
be the female voice of their debut album and it's lead single
"Tracking Treasure Down"

"Tracking Treasure Down" was a huge hit when it was released in 2006
and was played by virtually every DJ. It topped the Billboard Dance
charts and scored a ton of airplay. The song has proven to stand the
test of time and receives attention to this day, with regular airings
on the radio and millions of plays annually of their homemade video on
YouTube.

With this in mind, Gabriel & Dresden went on a mission to create the
perfect version for their current DJ sets. With an eye on classic
techno sounds and armed with analog synthesizers, Josh and Dave
re-imagined this song in a way that feels fresh, respects the original
and delivers plenty of classic G&D twists, turns and drama.

For remix duties, Gabriel & Dresden called in young Dutch producer and
Hardwell protegee' Dyro who has delivered what will invariably be one
of the festival anthems of the year. Two massive breakdowns meet two
huge drops that will make any DJ look and feel like a rock star!
