About
Music is the answer...
Get started in 1993
gabriel discovers electronic music in 1993. As he's listening to mythic "Pump it up live" on "Couleur 3", gabriel realizes he's got a strong passion for these lively and exhilarating sounds called house and trance music.
He bought his first tracks from the yet unavoidable José Camacho. That was back then, when "Maniak Records" still was in that famous clothes shop at Le Flon. The title of the track was the hit "I like to move it" from Real to Real, which landed into gabriel's flight case right away.
From 1998 to 2003
gabriel has been able to express his passion for electronic music in many ways ever since, particularly while organizing events with his friends between 1998 and 2003. Only to mention a few: Xterminated, Mindcontrol and Goldfinger, which attracted over 18'000 people. Gabriel took advantage of these events to demonstrate his skills under different names, such as "DJ Drake" and "The Collective" for live shows.
He's had gigs at a quite impressive number of clubs, out of which: Mad, D! and Cult in Lausanne; Bierhubeli in Berne; as well as Roxy, and Volkshaus in Zürich.
Whatismore, gabriel performed at many private and prestigious events like the private Blue Game event, which took place on the Atlantis Yacht (the boat was mooring at the Olympic harbour of Barcelona in 2001). He also played at the unforgettable and amazing "Mary-Anne" boat party in Venice in 2002. This event gathered many VIPs coming from all around Switzerland and will forever remain in its privileged guests' minds. He also exhibited his talent at the famous Nightlife Forum, in Alicante (Spain).
Between 2003 and 2006, gabriel decided to take a break from the spotlights and devoted himself to his marketing job, while keeping his music library growing.
As of 2007
Today, both the passion and the emotions felt through music are too strong for him, so gabriel has finally decided to let his energy explode again.
In order to protect this liveliness, gabriel has voluntarily decided to perform in a few occasions rather than being overbooked. Indeed, he feels that grasping each show in a conceptual, innovative and, above all warming way is essential. He chose two main musical orientations: joyful minimal-electro and chillout-lounge, which totally reflect his own emotions.
It looks like...live projects and productions are coming up...
Influences: Sasha, Hernan Cattaneo, Ellen Allien, Booka Shade, Gilles Peterson, Kruder & Dorfmeister
