2005 marked the introduction of a talented Canadian, from Guatemalan
descent, new comer to the electronic dance music scene, Gabriel Batz.
Originating from Montreal, Quebec, Canada, Gabriel Ernesto Batz-Hernandez opted for a career
as a professional tennis player, but his love for the game of tennis was
quickly replaced and pushed aside by his other passion: music.
As long as he can remember, music has played an essential part in his life.
Raised by deep melodic new age music, it is electronic dance music that
captured his heart the most. From a very early age, his father introduced
him to ambient and atmospheric music, styles that would eventually shape
Gabriel Batz’s ear and vision to what music should. He would listen for
hours to his father’s vast collection of records on old belt-driven Technics
turntables. At that time, he started to DJ and felt that making people dance
was way more.
His admiration for dance floor driven baselines, progressive house, techno
and atmospheric breaks soon led him to the studio where he discovered his
own unique style. His sound can be described as a fresh, sophisticated blend
of looped rhythms, deep melodies, hypnotic grooves and pounding progressive
electro baselines.
Gabriel Batz’s initial bootleg remix of “The World Is Mine” by David Guetta
received enthusiastic responses from many GDJB audiences and provoked Markus Schulz to personally contact and comment on the quality of his remix. Markus Schulz wasted no time in commissioning Batz to remix Attention Deficit's
track "What?" for his label Coldharbour Recordings.
This slowly led to the signing of more productions and remixes by several
record labels. In addition, international support was received from some of
the world's top producers and DJ's.
Currently with 88 released productions and remixes, Gabriel Batz has a very promising future ahead for him. With more productions and remixes already in the works for 2009, you can listen for a deeper refined sound from Gabriel Batz who will continue to grow and thrive in the music industry.
Gabriel Batz hosts a weekly radio show 'Reves Numeriques' exclusively on ETN.FM. He also hosts a monthly show 'Montreal Mix Sessions' exclusively on DI.FM. Both shows showcase his new productions as well as the sound of his label Ora Recordings.
