Interview with Gabriel & Dresden

Exclusive Matt Darey Interview with Gabriel & Dresden

MD: You've achieved an awful lot considering you've only been together since 2001, what's the G&D vision for the future?

G&D: Well, at the moment we are working on our debut artist album. We have already started playing the first single "Tracking Treasure Down" at shows. The album will be released in the spring of 2006 and we will tour the world to support it.

MD: Did you realise how huge 'As The Rush Comes' would be while you were writing it?

G&D: We new it was special, but that's it. We had no idea that it would get as big as it did.

MD: Is there a tension between writing progressive house and trance, or do you happily have a foot in each camp?

G&D: Dave: It's not that we have feet in camps, but more like we are both heavily influenced by both progressive and the "first" wave of trance in the mid to late 90s.
Josh: I grew up listening to a lot of Jean Michel Jarre and when you listen back to albums like Equinox, it sounds pretty trancy, but that was 1978! We just make music and can't help what we have been influenced by. All that said there does seem to be this artificial tension across style lines, which is just silly if you think about it.

MD: Do you really not respect your own album 'Bloom' because it's ‘only' a mix album?

G&D: Bloom was a labor of love, so we have total respect for it. There are a lot of original productions on it and most of the remixes came from our studio, so it's a very personal record. Unfortunately, since it did have other peoples music on it, it was looked at as a mix CD.

MD: Pls tell us about the artist album you're currently working on? Dave already sent me the first track off your artist Album “Tracking Treasure downâ€
