Gabriel & Dresden’s ‘Only Road’ odyssey continues. In a year that has seen them fund the highest Kickstarter music project, the release of their sublime second album and a global tour, Josh and Dave are once again front and centre of the dance music world.
The pair now turn their attention to remix releases, inviting Anjunfamily members and upcoming talent to rework their tracks.
The first EP sees Anjunabeats stalwart and techno-trance master Genix rework the unforgiving synths of ‘Jupiter’, Mau5trap favourite No Mana take on ‘Waiting For Winter’, veteran U.S. based DJs and producers Isaiah Martin and Ido bring a darker edge to ‘You’, and an uplifting progressive take on ‘Not Like Everybody Else’ from the U.K’s Farius.

[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Gabriel & Dresden manage to resurect their career with their excellently produced and executed album The Only Road. Now is the time for some incredible talents to remix the tracks in their own style and deliver four club & festival ready versions. Firstly Genix transforms the original into a powerful thumping groovy electro trancer with stunning breakdown with the orchestral theme of the original followed by powerful stomping beats and playful electro twisted climax ready to get the crowds on board. The atmospheric Waiting For Winter is translated into a melodic dreamy spacey warm progressive trance version with superb chunky grooves, thumping basslines, warm guitar riffs and full focus on the majestic vocals adding that classic Deadmau5 sound that doesn't sound old-fashion at all. Isaiah Martin and Ido translate the original a feel good travelling indie electronica deep house version perfect for warm up trance sets too. Lastly Farius continues to increase his appeal with superb version of I'm Not Like Everybody Else with plenty of club drums, heavy raunchy electro basslines, thunderous drums, synthy hooks and superb application of the dynamic vocal leading to his hands in the air climax for that perfect peak time moment. #PureGold Love IT [/content]
