They got some nice productions and made some very good remixes such as Safri-Duo - Samb-Adagio (Cosmic Gate Remix).
But I have the feeling that they're not really sure whether they'll make a hard-trance track or a (more profitable) club trance track. To play on the save side they tend to make something in between which I don't like at all (I refer to their own productions). When they remix they generally make great stuff.

hmm.. cosmic gate - as far as producing is concerned, yeh, they're allrite, although the cosmic gate firewire'esque vibe is really startin to piss me off in remixes, although most of the time they can get away with it.
I (and az) went out of our way 2 see cosmic gate last week.. 1st ever gig in england apparently (and you can see why.. maan they suck) .. they cant even beatmatch..
producing; they're allrite, but for fuck sake, some1 plz keep them the fuck away from decks!
Who was there? Bossi or Nic Chaggal? They are the 2 Djs of Cosmic gate and there is a 3rd man behind the project who is into producing.
Cosmic Gate are nice live, but I cant stand their productions anymore. Always the same, quality missing since Fire Wire!
THE DRUMS is still their beste tune!

Bossi and Nic are nice guys in real life
Their remixes are even better than their own productions

For me too much of this German 'Hard' stuff gets tiring after a while so I only listen to it in small amounts. However, Cosmic Gate are one of the better artists doing it. I love Raging (The Storm with Jan Johnston's vocals and Exploration Of Space is pretty good too, as is Melt To The Ocean and their remix of Vanessa Mae - White Bird and Rank 1 - Awakening. Not my favourites but I certainally like quite a few tunes of theirs.
