My favorite remixers - so many great ones! They killed each track in the early / mid-2000s! 1) Markus Schulz - Without you near (G&D remix) 2) Zocalo (there is also an amazing mashup of this track together with Coldpay - Fix you) 3) Jewel - Intuition (G&D remix) 4) Britney Spears - Me against the music (G&D remix) 5) Rachel Starr - Till there was you (G&D remix) Honorable mentions: As the rush comes / Around you (Motorcycle), Mindcircus (remix) & Tracking treasure down of course!
I’ve been following these guys since the early 2000s. I could listen them talk about any of their tracks or remixes. They’re responsible for some of the greatest progressive trance tracks of the day.
One thing I do like about both of these guys is that they have a great relationship as brothers. These guys shape my music throughout my life, thanks to both of you for being great producers and DJs. I hope to hear even more great productions soon. Twan, this has to be my second favorite interview. Keep up the good work.
Oh wow, thank you! What's your favorite one if I may ask? haha! And yeah, they're great, very happy to hear we can expect new music from them soon-ish!
This was awesome to watch! Their early songs and remixes got me listening to electronic music and then during Covid, those marathon CQ live streams were one of the few things good in the world. I would fall asleep to them on work nights and wake up to Dave still going hard every night it seemed. Digga digga duh!
I really like their remix of Carrera 2 by Three Drives, a real old but gold tune. I know this is about the duo but need to mention Josh's entire album Winter Kills is insanely good.
Erg leuk om weer een interview met deze helden te zien! Imho is het succes van isos3 voor een groot deel aan hun remixen te danken. Tijs draaide hun producties destijds helemaal grijs 😊
Ja, dat waren echt mooie tijden! Die ISOS compilaties daar keek je gewoon maanden naar uit, te gek! Komt over een tijdje nog een interview met G&D over een paar weken! (Die gaat over "Tracking Treasure Down")
@@muzikxpress nou idd, precies dat 😃 En als er dan weer een nieuwe uitkwam er helemaal voor gaan zitten en van het eerste kabbelende synthje tot de laatste cymball genieten 😎 Top dat er nog een interview aankomt! Lekker bezig Twan👏
@@muzikxpress flew over from Australia so not sure when I'll be back unfortunately 😔 Really hope there will be a next time and then I will. Loved every minute Great interview as always ♥️
I'm surprised you didn't mention the mashup with JASEfos - Do What You Want. The vocal fits Arcadia very well and I think it even become G&D's go to version they played live.
@@natix_643 Well, the interview is about the story behind the track, not the remixes or mash ups etc. I also didn’t mention the remix that’s on the B-side for example 😉
I love this channel a lot and thank you for your work, but seriously, Arcadia's story was the most interesting of them? 😒🫣 Their works Beautiful Things, Swing 2 Harmony and Tracking Treasure Down were much more well-known songs. 🤷🏻♂️ I am left with a serious feeling of missing them with this video..😞
Thank you! And well.... if you watched the full interview (or checked the video description), you would have noticed that the next interview I will post with them is about "Tracking Treasure Down" ;-) We did the interview about "Arcadia" first because next year it turns 20 and it was the very first release of their own label Organized Nature, which was very important for them (as they also mention in this interview). And "Swing To Harmony" is a track from Perasma, not from Gabriel & Dresden. They did a great remix of it, but .... I never do interviews about remixes, all my interviews are about originals ;-) Hope this clears some things up!
All good! And yeah, I only do interviews about originals since there's usually not really an interesting story behind a remix artists do for someone else; most of the time the remix requests comes in, they do the remix and that's it ;-) Doesn't mean I don't like those remixes, but story wise it is way more interesting for me to ask about originals. And often artists rather talk about their own originals instead of a remix they did for someone else ;-) And hopefully I can do an interview about "Beautiful Things" another time. There was only time for 2 interviews last month, since we did record these right before their gig at the Luminosity Beach Festival. They're not often in The Netherlands, last time was in 2018 when we recorded the "As The Rush Comes" interview. So yeah haha ;-)
16:04 In response to Dave's disappointment about DJs not heavily playing their original album tracks on Anjunabeats: I prefer them to the remixes, but part of the issue may have been their unavailability; for instance, the extended mixes of Remedy were only available in MP3 to their Kickstarter supporters. That’s in need of a WAV release.
Any plans for a chat with CJ boland to talk about his track,second phase - mentasm or FSOL - Papua New Guinea,gonna get greedy & suggest KLF - what time is love & last train to trancentral & hardfloor - acperience x
@@-technodream- some of them are on my looooong wish list, but unfortunately I simply don’t have time / budget anytime soon for trips abroad. Muzikxpress is not a cheap hobby and unfortunately the little advertising money that comes in, all goes back into costs for gas, parking, editing software, equipment etc. But, hopefully one day! Oh BTW, already tried the KLF (I’m a huge fan!) but they don’t do interviews unfortunately:( Oh and I think you mix up CJ Bolland with Joey Beltram 😉
@@muzikxpress oh crap! How embarrassing,I was listening to horsepower by cj & had Beltram next up & got confused when typing.as a 54 yr old oldskool lover,I’m deeply embarrassed😂x
Yeah Josh & Dave had a a break for a few years, but they're back making music for many years already, in the last years they released 2 albums and lots of great tracks. Myon & Shane 54 indeed broke up a while ago and they're both solo now.
What is your favorite production or remix made by Gabriel & Dresden?
As the rush comes (g&d sweeping strings mix)
Zocalo with Armin
As The Rush Comes
As the rush comes
NO ONE ON EARTH Above and Beyond GD Remix, Beautiful Things Andain GB Mix
My favorite remixers - so many great ones! They killed each track in the early / mid-2000s!
1) Markus Schulz - Without you near (G&D remix)
2) Zocalo (there is also an amazing mashup of this track together with Coldpay - Fix you)
3) Jewel - Intuition (G&D remix)
4) Britney Spears - Me against the music (G&D remix)
5) Rachel Starr - Till there was you (G&D remix)
Honorable mentions: As the rush comes / Around you (Motorcycle), Mindcircus (remix) & Tracking treasure down of course!
Dave is my favorite DJ to listen to because of his narration and commentary on the history of dance music.
"Michael Burns - Forwards" a masterpiece, thanks for the reminder, Dave 👌
The first time I heard this was from my dad playing the in search of sunrise 4 album in the car. Awesome track for driving even now👌🏼
Those ISOS complilations back then were simply amazing, I miss those times! That's also how I did discover "Arcadia" myself to be honest :)
@@muzikxpresssame at me, lucky to have all the episodes from 1 to 7 🙏
@@vittya4373 Nice! I have them all too, also still buying the new ones.
Tiestos ISOS series were amazing. Im actually listening to it rn, I’m on ISOS 5. Good times tho.
Great song. Terrible edit on that mix.

Legends ❤️
Superb interview Musikxpress. Thank you Twan for your excellence, and for bringing these two legends home for us. Greet interview.
Thanks so much Michael!
Huge and great Classic by legendary Gabriel & Dresden! My absolute favorite -:Arcadia ❤
Massive track for sure! And very important for them since it was the first release on Organized Nature :)
@@muzikxpress Agree 👍
Never heard his voice, sounds so normal 😊❤

Arcadia is a truly stunning piece of music, one of my all time favourite progressive pieces.
🙌🏻
Great interview, but most of all I love their friendship... ❤
@@kaspessi yes! They’re great together right? And thank you, glad you enjoyed it!!
OMG thank you this channel can only grow!
Thank you! And I really hope so, getting close to 30.000 subscribers now, next goal.... 50.000 and then 100.000 one day hopefully haha

It was VERY good. Winter Kills was a group though.
@@Underbelly1120 I know, what I meant is that out of them two only Josh was in it.
Yeaaahhhhh boyyyyy
I forgot to bring my "Winter Kills" CD so he could sign it, aaargh .... well, hopefully next time ;-)
You deserve a lot more subscribers. Good Job.
@@TheDjirfan Thank you! Hopefully more people will discover my channel soon🤞🏻
Me too. ISOS 4 was (and still) amazing mix. The first time i heard Arcadia 🎉❤.

Great interview Twan, glad Josh is on the mend, he is a synth guru I could talk for hours with ❤
One of my fav’s

Great interview Twan! Enjoyed hearing from Dave and Josh.
@@bradjolly7078 Thank you Brad!
oh god my favorite from them! thank you for sharing!
Glad you like it! Also one of my personal favorites as well, such a great track!
Saw them dj at Amnesia many moons ago. Round about the time of Arcadia and Till There Was You.
Amazing catalogue of music. Love them
Great times! :)
Such humble and funny guys. 🙏 Still waiting for "Mixed For Feet 2". 🎧
Holy crap! Nice present on friday! one of my favorite progressive house tracks
Haha you're welcome, glad you enjoyed it!!
Love you Guys...
And thanks for the interview...
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for all you do this is an amazing track
@@amith4488 thank you too!!!
Another great interview, and I knew they split to do solo productions for awhile.
Thank you!
What a track. Saw them at lumi this year after yonks! What a classic set they played
@@daft009 I recorded this interview a few hours before that set hehe 😉🙌🏻
Think I saw you at lumi too Twan but always from the back or side so was never sure if it was actually you
@@daft009 ahhh next time come say hi if you can! Hope you had a good time!
@@muzikxpressI thought so, Josh wearing the same shirt 😂
@@muzikxpress flew over from Australia so not sure when I'll be back unfortunately 😔
Really hope there will be a next time and then I will. Loved every minute
Great interview as always ♥️
As said here Arcadia, is the opening track on the excellent Bloom Compilation, worth having if you've not heard it yet.💿💿
So good right? They signed my copy of “Bloom” after the interview 🙌🏻😊
@@muzikxpress oh very nice, Bloom is right up there as a fave in my compilations from that period. 🌻🌻

cathartic and ecstatic composition; isn't arcadia dreamy?

I like their remixes more, No One On Earth, As The Rush Comes and Beautiful Things remixes are big classics ❤️ Thank you Twan 🙏
I thought they broke up due to ‘creative differences’ or was that Myon and Shane 54?
Yep, that was May and Shane 54
