Gerard presents The Hit List episode 48, featuring guest 6047, on Scientific Sound Asia. Scientific Sound Asia is an Asian electronic music radio station, DJ agency, promoter and music-news platform connecting audiences across the region and internationally.
Gerard is a DJ from Florida, USA, whose productions span deep house, deep tech, tech house and techno. His work is rooted in house music, and he has performed for audiences in the United States and East Asia.
Gerard began as part of DeviceRATT with F.L.I. Records, where his interest in electronic music developed into a lasting commitment to the genre. That period helped establish the beats and sounds that he brought to his DJ sets.
He performed across South Florida’s underground scene, including appearances at Treehouse and Nocturnal. Positive reviews, sold-out shows and a growing following accompanied his work in the region.
In 2014, Gerard released his debut with Aerotek Records and went on to build a place within the electronic scene. Further releases with labels including Pure Pitch and LTHM added to that catalogue.
Gerard also secured a series of residencies at venues across East Asia. There he played sets for audiences and built on the profile he had established in his home region.
After becoming a familiar name at venues in China, Gerard returned to America when the pandemic began. His departure brought an end to that period of activity in the Far East.
Following his return to the United States, Gerard worked on his craft and performed for audiences. At the time of publication, his fan base was growing as his music reached listeners beyond his home territory.
Guest DJ 6047 (first hour)
6047 (read as 60:47) is a Los Angeles-based DJ and producer whose origins are in Vietnam but whose heart lies in California. His background in the electronic arts is stunning and he has released across a variety of genres on many labels.
He is very light-hearted in his perception of himself and prefers to let his tracks and remixes tell his story. He has under a variety of formats and labels released well over 800 tracks and remixes in his 20-year tenure.
His production abilities have gained him a reputation and earnt him a number of guest shows on international stations worldwide and recognition of his work is significant. His attention to finite details and his performance style which revolves around Progressive, breaks and beat matching make him formidable in the booth as a DJ.
He is involved in many collaborations at present with many of the other Scientific Sound Asia artists and can be heard on radio stations and podcasts the world over. His guest show features his multi-genre favourites from the label Sincopat.
Gerard’s The Hit List episode 48 with guest 6047 opens with Mundo D and Roglar’s No Name on Sincopat, setting an Indie Dance tone. Christian Nielsen’s The Tide, also on Sincopat, follows with Melodic House and Techno detail.
AFFKT’s Capote returns to the indie dance side of Sincopat’s catalogue. Patrick Kunkel’s Creed then brings the selection back towards melodic house and techno on the same label.
Mattia Pompeo’s Grado and Point Sole’s Zero sustain the melodic direction through two further Sincopat releases. Renato Cohen’s Vacuum Light introduces an indie dance variation before Paul Ursin’s Learn Wave returns to the label’s melodic house and techno output.
Johan Mila’s Crystal keeps the early section focused through another Sincopat release. Deeplomat and Dublatov’s Afrodisiac, featuring Mbaye and released on Sincopat, adds an Electronica edge.
Placebo eFx’s Redux Saints remix of Give Me A Reason on Deep Tech Los Angeles Records shifts the programme into Tech House. Luca Secco and Craftkind’s That Bitch on NVDRZ holds that firmer club-focused approach.
Deiver’s Pass on Lemon-aid Music introduces Deep Tech House, followed by Kabbina’s Amnesia on Issues and LondonGround’s Loco22 on Bamboleo. Reflux’s Pressure on Tech City, Drew Dapps’ Full Effect on WB Trax, Ramin Rezaie’s No Chance on Solid Grooves Raw and Latmun’s Ready And Willing on Repopulate Mars close with alternating deep tech house and tech house energy.
