The sixth particle of the already impressive Different Pieces catalogue comes from the studio of the label boss himself, Josh Gabriel. As most people know now, Gabriel (backed up with a staggering 25 years of music involvement) chose to go solo in 2008. Waving off his successful career as part of the legendary Gabriel & Dresden duo, he made a creative change from the more trance-oriented G&D sound to explore new dimensions and a challenging techno & tech-house orientated sound. He has received a warm welcome for his journey down this new path. Testing his abilities to the fullest, it’s clear there’s a whole lot more to Josh Gabriel than meets the ear on a first listen.

Undefinable and different would be possible words to describe the follow-up to Gabriel’s ‘Tone Program EP’ (the opening salvo from Different Pieces in 2008). However, the name ‘Rubber’ couldn’t have been more fitting to this heavily distorted techno blend of sounds. A thick, stretched out whirl of bass, kicks and melodic stabs keep order in a house of chaos, as ‘Rubber’ limbers up to be one of the major dance floor destroyers in the through the summer months.
