GTR news
Gareth Emery

Things have been somewhat hectic in the world of Gareth Emery of late. At the moment, Gaz is solidly locked in the studio working on new material. It's too early to give much away about the new tracks, but they include a vocal project that received a massive reaction at Slinky in April when Gaz tested it, a remix for up and coming UK label Motion: Echano - Nothing To Live, and a huge vocal mix for a major label that we'd love to tell you more about but can't - watch this space for more information.

On other music news, Paul van Dyk can't get enough of Gareth's material at the moment. The Gareth Emery mix of Digital Delinquents - Forever has featured heavily in his recent sets and is due for an imminent release on Equilibrium. He's also caning Gareth Emery & Jon O'Bir - Escapade, a track that's generated a massive amount of hype from just a couple of CDRs, and is due for general release on Five AM in August with a remix from CERN.
