Gabi
Born in Frankfurt, Germany and raised in the suburbs of Detroit, Gābi naturally developed an attraction to electronic music. As a talented singer and pianist from a young age, Gabriele Schwarz began her career with a foundation of music theory and diligent practice. As a teenager, she discovered Detroit's underground techno scene: inspired by the sounds of the city, she found a pair of cheap turntables and taught herself to mix vinyl. She soon began playing at underground clubs in Detroit under her nickname and moniker, Gābi.
Since her debut in 2011, Gābi has become a familiar face in Detroit’s underground dance community, holding multiple residencies over the years. Gābi has performed twice at Detroit’s world-renowned Movement Electronic Music Festival in both 2014 (Made in Detroit Stage) and 2015 (Movement Main Stage). “Her DJ sets have a minimalistic dub techno chug with a melodic, deep-tech house feel that will keep you grooving” Thump said of the artist’s 2015 main stage performance.

As a producer, her style captures what she brings to the club: Gabi's music combines dark techno and dub elements with deep and ethereal melodies, creating a unique take on modern techno that stays true to the soul of classic Detroit music. Her debut EP, “Pangaea” was released in 2013 on German label Clear-Cut Records; she has also released on Bronzai Records (Spain), and Mintek Music (Detroit).
