With the sun out and the arrival of Spring, I have this one popping in my head:
Title: Gabrielle (Live Garage Version)
Artist: Roy Davis Jr. Featuring Peven Everett
Label: Large Records / XL Recordings
Genre(s): Garage House, 2-Step
Year released: 1996
I had actually first heard this tune in 1999, when Muzik Magazine gave a free CD with their issue. I always held a fondness for the raw soul of the tune, as well as the different sound of 2-Step, which was new to me at the time. I mainly listen and remember that brief time from 1999 through 2000 when I’d see many 2-Step DJs and events pop up as an alternative to the popularity of trance music at that time. Always seemed like a sophisticated music, but better suited for lounges and smaller venues.
