Andain

Andain, an electronic music duo from San Francisco, United States, was formed in 2000 by producer Josh Gabriel and vocalist Mavie Marcos. The pair initially collaborated with guitarist David Penner, creating experimental electronica that attracted the attention of DJ Tiësto. Their breakthrough came with the 2002 single "Summer Calling", which appeared on Tiësto’s In Search of Sunrise 3 compilation and was later released as a 12" single; the following year "Beautiful Things" was issued, gaining widespread club play and earning a nomination for Best Progressive/Trance at the 2004 Winter Music Conference. After a brief period of touring, the group disbanded in 2006. In 2011, Gabriel and Marcos reunited and released the single "Promises", followed by the full-length album You Once Told Me on 24 September 2012, which included eleven tracks and several remixes. Subsequent singles "What It’s Like" (2012) and "You Once Told Me" (2013) expanded the album’s reach. The duo received multiple International Dance Music Award nominations, including Best Progressive/Trance for "Beautiful Things" in 2004 and Best Trance Track for "Promises" in 2012. After 2014, members pursued solo projects, concluding Andain’s active period.
