When producers are putting out a massive amount of productions and remixes, it's almost certain that the quality of some tracks would not be perfect. I think Gabriel and Dresden deserve their success.

One thing I would hope to see is that G&D need to come up with a more complex bassline! The same old bassline gets boring!

enh, they were good, but to be honest, all their remixes sound the same to me now, so easy to trainspot.

just seems like they tried to get too big too fast, I dunno, i prefer releases/remixes every now and then, to keep me interested, but not obsessed, seems like every day they have pumped out a new tune.

Ha Ha. It makes perfect sense. It took people some time to catch on to G&D.

Apparently not. You see, the thread is about discussing if Gabriel & Dresden
is overrated or not. This is not a "mention a G&D song quick, win promos!!"-thread.

I think G&D has become boring. The latest remix I heard was of some
Dave Gahan tune and it really blew. Now before everyone goes apeshit
over me, another guy, not liking G&D have this clear for you:
I dont give a rats ass about how popular they are, how many tunes they
have made or how much money they make. If their music doesnt fit my
style it just doesnt fit.

Altho I have almost worn out my Lament-vinyl. But that and is the only
really solid tune I feel they have produced. This lets-remix-all-the-popstars
just makes me sigh. Fine, they can do whatever they want and they can
put out material that is "top notch" but I dont care.

I dont want them to remix Madonna, Britney, DJ Aligator or Pavarotti.
I just dont. Altho that is NOT the reason why I dont feel that
they can produce music that inspires me. The reason is that they are
doing a van Dyk in my eyes, same bassline, same fat beat and the structure
is seldom different.

Its like always having sex with your gf at 19:00 Sunday nights for 15
minutes.
Sure, it feels nice in the beginning but after a month or two you
begin to suspect that there is more in life in a sexual standpoint
then 15 minutes of glory with the lamp off.

Important details to be noted..

i started a thread about this about 1.5 months ago

80% pro gabriel and dresden and 20% anti......people bashed me blah blah blah


today on this thread i see
60% of people who do think they are overhyped and 40% cockriders

its all about this sound and if a sound isnt your cup of tea then thats why Ta is for.
Your expression and feelings about a dj.
Dave dresden even said critisize all you want and he doesnt give a damn. Good idea. He will continue to produce some good tunes and some shit tunes. Its part of being a dj/producer.
same as being a baseball player....youll throw some strikes once in a while.


but im finally seeing some people jumping off this bandwagon......ffs

Gabriel & Dresden still kicks arse! I'd like to hear their remix of some '80 tunes more than pop tunes, even though Evanescene - Hello Mix was mint!

Smiley DJ hah

gabriel & dresden have a sound that I like, It's been a long time since I have heard it, they are good to dance to, they put on a good show, I do admit - their essential mixes are pretty boring, but do enjoy them, and I think they deserve the credit.
