Gatekeeper's sound can be compared to Green Rage. Gatekeeper left behind a demo recorded on June 1st 1994 at Penguin Studios. More information regarding (2): Gatekeeper had his first 12", titled "Tomb", released on the now legendary Skull Disco label, which was co-written with producer/DJ Appleblim.
