Original & Remixes released on Yoshitoshi/Shinichi 

Sultan & Ned Shepard - Together We Rise (Original Mix)

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.





Gabriel & Dresden - Arcadia (Original 12" mix - edited)

Oakenfold - "Southern Sun" (Gabriel & Dresden Unplugged Mix)

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.
