Thumbs up Gabriel & Dresden @ Glow REVIEW




so
who else got owned?



mmm, great night, Gabriel & Dresden rocked!
Dave took the decks first at 12 with Annie Lennox - Pavement Cracks (Gabriel & Dresden Remix) and alternated with Josh to play a gourgeous set till 4am.

Motorcycle - Deep Breathe Love...fucking great wonderful tune. A little less anthemish than ATRC, but absolutely beautiful thanks for honoring us with it's debut guys!

other tunes I rememberrrrred:

On A High (G&D Love From Humboldt Dub)
Carrera 2 (g&d remix)
ATRC (Sweeping Strings) mixed into ATRC (Armin van Buuren remix)
Beautiful Things (Josh Gabriel Mix)
Beautiful Things (G&D Unplugged Mix)
A Break In the Clouds
ELEVATION - CLEAR BLUE w00t!!!
Summer Calling (airwave club mix)
Dave Gahan - only when I need you (g&d remix)
mass effect - alphascan
One for the Road
Solar Stone - Release
junkie xl - beauty never fades extension
Josh Gabriel - Alive (Club mix) << requested by moi!
Southern Sun (g&d unpluggd mix) was the last song of the night


Glad to see sooooooooo many TAs there...too many to rember reallY! I was talking to Dave & Josh about how many TAs came out to see them, and then I walk outside, NO ONE IS LEFT....wtf, why did all you guys dip out? we coulda taken a massive group pic with G&D
anyhoo, I will post my pic with them on here when its uploaded.

oh man...I passed up the chance to go back to G&D's hotel, cuz I wanted my gf to be with me, so instead I drove back to her house...how gay am I?

Josh and Dave are some of the coolest & nicest guys Ive met , I hope they come back this way again soon!

PS: I don't want to hear one single thing about trainwrecks or their mixing, because, looking out at all of you from the DJ booth all I saw were happy grinning faces and people goin nuts and dancin their asses off

i only heard 1 shady mix early in their set but freal, last night was crazy. When they first came on and played a coupla songs i wasnt feelin their vibe untill they pumped the bass and killed the place the whole entire night. Their openin dj dave sampson (sp?), was fucking off the hook and to top it off, he played PQM - YOU ARE SLEEPING.
I came into the club anticipating that G&D were gonna play a chill set but instead i got owned.

Good job G&D!!! must come back to Glow

oh yea and i forgot to mention . . . . .

all i gotta say is that i went ape nutz when they dropped mass effect - alphascan. CRAZYYYY

Dave and Josh rocked the joint got to go back stage for the first time @ Glow....somebody was talking to me but i couldnt see them at first....then i looked down and it was Josh shaking my hand.....he is seriouslly only 4' tall......ok maybe 4'1" haha. what a cool couple guys.....so layed back and down to earth. it was great to see so many Ta's out last night.....John, Michelle, Peter, Rueben, Harry, Frank and friends, Janette, Amy, Michelle #2, Erin and friends, tinibuterfly, mebot, Mike......you all rock!!! if i forgot anybody, sorry....introduce yourself next time the only thing that sucks about this weekend is the fact that i have a 4 hour drive back home by myself
Rueben...sorry we didnt stick around for the pic man. John was being a bitch and wanted to dip out...haha j/k.....we were all DEAD

Night was sweet. Were a couple off mixes but nothing that killed it to bad. They were feeling the set and the crowd for sure, and that makes a big dif. They were always dancing and pointing at people, not to mention they had like 100 people behind the booth dancing around at one point and were loving it. The energy was high throughout and the crowd was one of the best iv seen there in a while. Prob due to the massive amount of TAs packed in, good job of representing. Overall sweet ass nite, anyone that showed up and didn't have a good time is crazy. There was always room to dance (Unless you were around that huge purple monster, dude had no idea that he was smashing everone around him)

Also respect to all the new TAs I met i don't remember peoples names ever, but you were all cool(I was dude in the VANDIT shirt.) Also the regulars Busy(GET CRUNK)child, Tranceeyes, Beema. Was going to wait outside, but when i got there nobody els was around so it wouldn't have been much of a group picture. Anyway its only 12 so I think Ill pass back out now, hopefully I wont hurt so much later.
G&D owned, good times, good times.

Peter: opening dj was Dan Sampson

oh yeah...remember "DOWN IN FRONT!" wahahahaha


Posted by Tim_G on Aug-10-2003 19:55:

OMG. I had fun

I just got back home a few minutes ago, since I stayed at hotel in DC. But holy shit...G&D rocked the house! Some of the tracks I remember them playing were:

Dave Gahan - I Need You
Markus Schulz presents Elevation - Clear Blue
Duncan Shiek - I'm on a high
All four? or two? remixes of Andain - Beautiful Things
Two remixes of Motorcycle - As the rush comes
Motorcycle - Deep Breathe Love
Attention Deficit - What?


Deep Breathe love was -ok-. It didn't have much energy as As The Rush Comes in my opinion. Although, I'm sure it will grow on me once I hear it a lot more. It was good though!!!

Dan Simpson owned too! Just like Busy Child said, "He dropped PQM - Sleeping", omg...I died when I heard that. I didn't think he would drop that track. I'm glad he did! I saw a few people taking video and pictures...who was that and will it be posted? I want to check them out! I know both Josh & Dave were holding the video camera. It was great meeting a lot of the TA's from the board! Hope to meet again!


Posted by beema on Aug-10-2003 21:34:


Me, Ryan (Mebot), Josh Gabriel, Matt, Dave Dresden

I'm starting to think we should take group pics before the show instead of afterwards, cause when it's all over, everyone just looks like crapola


Posted by NYGblue on Aug-10-2003 21:45:

Yeah Reuben seriously man... whats up with that pic?


Posted by trancEyes22 on Aug-10-2003 22:39:

wow!! what an awesome night! i was so pleased with the crowds energy and ability to absolutely go crazy!! josh and dave all in all were great. so what if they cant mix flawlessly? hell, its better than i can say! but they are so good to see live because they play tracks that other dj's havent touched...i died during:

pavement cracks (i knew they were gonna open with it frank!! )
as the rush comes (sweeping strings) mixed into armins rmx
one for the road
junkie xl- beauty never fades
andain- summer calling (airwave club)
andain- beautiful things (both unplugged & joshs rmx)
and of course...

the new motorcycle track- deep breath love

people are saying that it wasnt that great...but honestly, i cannot get it out of my head. the vocals in the beginning ("deeep breath love....deep breath love") just keep replaying in my mind. it is definitely different from ATRC, which is good in my opinion. it has that same deep, dark and sexy feel and the vocalist is the same as in ATRC. i remember it being very trancey at first and then breaks down to very dancey at the end...i think more so than ATRC.


great seeing all the ta's: you know who you are

joel, dave- thank you for saving me and my friends from ogres, rapists, and scary monsters!! had a blast with you two

i must say i think g&d were better when i saw them in NY...i think i wasnt too into the 15 mins sets that they kept switching on and off to. i liked how in ny it was like 2 hrs for gabriel, 2 for dresden...etc. it was a little choppy, but still great nonetheless.

till next time ya'll!!

highlight of the night:

Beema yellin at some ogre looking dude "DOWN IN THE FRONT" and he turns around and stares beema down. So i go up to the ogre and try to hip check him out from the front and he doesnt budge. wtf

That dude was giant. And then his giant girlfriend kept coming to see him right in front for like 3 seconds then ravaging her gigantor ass back through all the people. People that huge shouldnt try to dance up front, my baby toenail is missing.


Posted by Mebot on Aug-11-2003 01:26:

i woke up this morning so sore and congested that at first i thought i must have danced so hard last night..but in actuality i was coming down with a fever and now im all sick..

So i guess i showed true TA spirit by goin to J00F friday night then G&D saturday night all while getting sick!

LOL

but seriously last night was alsome. I got to see all you TAs, tranceEyes, vtec junkie, peter and reuben of course..hahaha peter was crunked but at least this time u made it into the club!

Higuys,

Me and michelle had a sick night at glow...... ? wierd but sick. lol the whole weekend was wierd.


G and D were amazing (besides there fade in fade out style of mixing)

Clear BLUE ROCKED... knocked me and my lady on our ass's.

Did anyone see those Jerry springer strippers in the cage. They were moving too damm fast when as the rush comes came on ...




And finally on my way out I met the numero' uno fan of gabe and dress.

She came all the way from her west virgina farm (thanks to her handy tracktor trailer)

I think she's joining ta soon.......

I have an Armin set somewhere where he does that between each song. It's not exactly my favorite style either. I like smooth transitions.

...as I listen to James Holden - One For You (Avus 'One For Heads' Remix) before I hit the sack. Good night TA's


Posted by djdl on Aug-11-2003 07:16:

yes, wut a night. i had tons o fun, getting fucked up and listening to the best producers in the world. havent heard beautiful things in a club yet, so twas a treat! their new track sounded nice and a little mellow which i like, but i know once i start listening to it more i will fall in love. i hope g&d comes back to dc soon, hopefully to nation (beema hook that up bro).

erin & liz, no prob with the ogres and rapists, anytime. thanx for peeling away the hoes off of me, i dont know why there were so many of them. i think it was the axe body spray, but who knows. hopefully we can all make it to code for steve heklsdfhsjkoot.

joel, good seeing u again, its been way too long my friend.

o yea, i was sooooo happy that glow wasnt packed last night. i just cant stand that.


Posted by davedresden on Aug-11-2003 08:26:

hey all

just wanted to say thanks to everyone for showing up in washington to hear us play last nite - i was completely dumbfounded by how many people drove extremely long distances to come hear us play...(big grin)

as you may have noticed, josh and i are trying to make our dj sets more like our studio collaborations, so we've been experimenting with different things in our sets recently. we tried the 4 on 4 thing for the glow gig and after a rough start, i think we managed to iron out the kinks and rock out. we both certainly had a lot of fun and that is attributed to you guys for creating such a cool vibe, singing the songs and putting your hands in the air a lot!

as for deep breath love - it's most likely not going to be the follow up to "as the rush comes" - it's a song im very proud of on many levels, but it should not be compared to ATRC in any way and i prob made a mistake by calling it the "follow up" to ATRC. we plan on doing an entire album with jes,showing our many musical sides with the songs in the process.

i'm beginning to think that songs like ATRC only come around so often based on the response it got last night...utterly fantastic!!!

oh, by the way, we signed motorcycle to positiva records in the uk! they will be releasing our mixes, markus and armin's mixes sometime in the fall.

regards,
dave
