DJ Gabriel Chong is one of the pioneers that have helped shape the Malaysia's, dance music scene into what it is today. He represented his native Singapore as the youngest-ever participant at the 1988 DMC World Championships in London. As a promoter and DJ he has promoted and played many of the countrys landmark parties, sharing the decks with DJs like Carl Cox, Roger Sanchez, and Sasha both at home and abroad.

Today, Gabriel's experience as a world-class DJ spans Asia, North America and Europe. When not shuttling between residencies throughout South-East Asia, at clubs like Zouk Kuala Lumpur (the sister club of the renowned Zouk Singapore), he can be found polishing his production chops for a forthcoming album that combines dance music's diversity into the potent tribal tech-house brew that has become his signature sound. The release of Malaysias most anticipated record of the year, a collaboration between Gabriel and one of the countrys leading singers, Camelia. Fusing straight-edged pop tunes and dance floor dynamics, the release looks set to add a new twist to Malaysias notoriously conservative pop industry.

Gabriel is renowned for big room peak sets where he creates a driving techno sound track layered with tribal percussion. For smaller rooms he takes the mix deeper with warm, straight-up house. He is an ambitious and progressive experimentalist.
