it's coming out I believe, not on SD tho. Shouldn't be too long I don't think.
Killer tune tho, Gatekeeper has some amazing beats, such an original and well-developed sound.

definitely hear the resemblence.
the strings & vocals remind of something off of platinum breakz too however cliche the reference might be... ; )

no probs, funny I wouldn't have thought of it as a SD kind of tune really - their stuff is usually more tripped out/tribal, Let Go is definitely more of a post-jungle sound to me.
btw Gatekeeper was orginally a project between Appleblim and his mate Will - they both worked on the tune on SD004 - but now Gatekeeper is just Will on his own, and has more tunes on the way.

word.
i agree it's not the typical SD sound. but the minimalism and the vibe seem very skull disco-y to me...
thanks for the link too.

finally something new from the man that appeared in fine style at the Skull's 2CD, that tune was a good start for me cos for some reason it stands a big track even in the middle of those heavyweight productions from the labels heads.
So i was pretty curious about to listen some new serious stuff from Gatekeeper and it didnt dissapoint me, solid.

Is this the one with the vocal saying somthing like "i keep on falling..."?
If its the one i'm thinkin of, i did the whole rewindin & listening again obsessively bit when i first got that peverelist mix. Sick tune! Did a tracklist ever emerge for that mix, anyone?
edit: just clocked the clip at the top there! So yeah, confirmed. Wicked tune. I reckon it'd go well on a Skull Disco plate.
