Gab (23)

Gabriel Ramirez (Gab) Montreal born dj/producer, at age of two he moved with his family to Chile where he grew up. At age 16 he decided to move back to the city of his birth, Montreal. It seems as right after that move he started making his way into the world of music, Montreal made it very easy as the city is a melting pot of various music establishments no matter the genre. Initially, Gab’s influences came from the punk & rock side of things, bands such as NOFX, Fiskales Ad-Hok, Crudos, Mr. Bungle, and Slayer just to name a few. Gab’s musical background as a drummer landed him into a band “Man Kills Man” that he was part of for 13 years. Montreal offered many musical “adventures” by night, and in one of those outings, Gab discovered the Jungle and D&B scene which led him to many other explorations in the electronic music scene. "I think it was at this point when I somehow swapped my drumset for two Technics turntables and a mixer”. While shopping for vinyl he stumbled on a secondhand drum machine that quickly escalated to owning a few drum machines and a few synths that to this day he uses to sketch out projects. The rest is history…
