Sounds R E F O R M E R s a m p l e r 01 Claw 1 min. sample 02 Say 1 min. sample 03 Optical One 1 min. sample 04 Position Oldham St Manchester 1 min. sample 05 Gazelle 30 sec. sample 06 New York Girl 30 sec. sample 07 Claw (live) full 5 min. bonus track! Here we have a special page for the generous sampler of seven tracks from the new Gabrielles Wish album, Reformer (Small Adjustments label, 2006). Usually bands will let you hear a couple of weak 30 seconds samples, but here there are four decent quality samples of one minute each. Then come a couple of, well, weak 30 seconds samples (hey they can't give away the full album for free), but will you complain after getting a full live track, an amazing early performance of Claw? You'll get the various tastes of this album (available from Piccadilly and Vox Pop), ranging from emotional post punk to ethereal ambient soundscapes through ass kickin' rock'n'roll. All the album tracks have been produced by Gabrielles Wish and Cristophe Brian, recorded by David Alcock at Butterfly Music and mastered by Simon Archer at Oxygene Studios in Manchester. More details in the Discography. The live track was recorded by Alex Staszko. DOWNLOAD page on TuneTribe £ 1.00 per track - complete album (9 tracks): only £ 7.99!

CLAW DOWNLOAD This minute comes from the incredibly powerful beginning of the album, after a dark descending verse a celestial choir solemnly echoes the wonderful tune of the guitar. Check also the amazing full live version at the bottom. File Size 0.7 MB - Length 01:02 - Bitrate 096 K/s |
|
|
SAY DOWNLOAD These 60 seconds come from an acoustic song enriched by atmospheric sounds which would have made happy the Bowie and Eno of Low and beautiful female backing vocals on a really touching melody. File Size 0.7 MB - Length 01:00 - Bitrate 096 K/s |
|
|
OPTICAL ONE DOWNLOAD To further prove the varied sounds of Reformer, here we have 61 seconds taken from a song which clocks at over 12 minutes. Actually this is a rock song with an ambient interlude inside which reaches moments of astonishing grace like this passage from the heavenly raindrops of the keyboard to a delicate guitar recalling the best Vini Reilly from The Durutti Column. File Size 0.7 MB - Length 01:01 - Bitrate 096 K/s |

POSITION OLDHAM ST MANCHESTER DOWNLOAD The grand final of the album is this fabulous guitar trip, an atmospheric instrumental between acid noises, Fripp-ish sounds and clear tunes. File Size 0.7 MB - Length 01:01 - Bitrate 096 K/s |
|
|
GAZELLE DOWNLOAD This 30 seconds sample comes from the Reformer page on Piccadilly Records and just shows Gabrielles Wish back at their fast and angular post punk. File Size 0.1 MB - Length 00:31 - Bitrate 032 K/s |
|

NEW YORK GIRL DOWNLOAD This fabulous heavy rock monster is another Piccadilly sample and shows another of the many faces of this diamond album. And yet we haven't any samples including the trumpets and violins gracing this eclectic masterpiece... File Size 0.1 MB - Length 00:30 - Bitrate 032 K/s : You can hear the full streaming track of New York Girl on Gabrielles Wish on MySpace.com, where you can also be added to the friends and leave comments. |

CLAW full bonus track Live 04 Mar 2005 : Manchester : The Bierkeller DOWNLOAD And here's a special complete bonus track for the gabrielleswish.com visitors: a jaw dropping early live performance of Claw, the track opening the album, now splendidly produced (of which you can hear a 60 seconds sample above). But this is how it sounded one year before the release: Rob's voice filtered through a megaphone, the choir still sounding like a bunch of desperate drunk hooligans, guitar noises leading through the fast second part. Charmingly raw, dark, powerful, hard and emotional. File Size 4.8 MB - Length 05:08 - Bitrate 120 K/s (On the page with the downloadable gig at the Manchester Castle (Sep 04) you can hear another live performance of Claw) |
