Gerard presents The Hit List 58 on Scientific Sound Asia. Scientific Sound Asia is an Asian electronic music radio station, DJ agency, promoter and music-news platform connecting audiences across Asia and internationally.
Gerard is a Florida-based DJ from the USA whose production work is informed by energy and a passion for electronic music. He has built a profile in House music through productions and performances that have engaged audiences wherever he has played.
Gerard began as part of DeviceRATT with F.L.I. Records, where his interest in electronic music developed into a deep commitment to the genre. That period helped him establish his path as a DJ, presenting beat-led selections and electronic sounds to underground audiences.
He performed across South Florida's underground circuit, including appearances at Treehouse and Nocturnal. Those shows brought positive reviews, sold-out events and a growing following.
In 2014, Gerard released his debut with Aerotek Records and began establishing his place in electronic music. Further releases on labels including Pure Pitch and LTHM strengthened his presence within the scene.
Gerard's work also took him beyond the United States, where he secured residencies at venues across East Asia. By laying down beats for live audiences, he found a similarly receptive response to that of his home territory.
After building a substantial following at venues in the region, Gerard became an established name on China's music scene. When the pandemic struck, he returned to America and was unable to continue his work in the Far East.
Since returning to the States, Gerard has wielded his craft for audiences while his following has grown internationally. His productions and DJ work have secured him a place in the wider electronic music community.
Gerard's The Hit List 58 episode opens with Connor Wood's One More Time on Feel Hype, bringing a measured Deep House opening to the programme. Étienne (DE) follows with Exodus on PDD Tamed, shifting the set into Peak Time Techno.
FJ9's Deeper Than Us on Vested Recordings and Gelassenheit's Let You Go on Soleid establish the melodic direction. Bedroom Logic and Jeff Ozmits then bring Secret Sky, also on Vested Recordings, into Progressive House territory.
Moritz Hofbauer's Transit on Soleid returns to Melodic House and Techno, before Victor Kesiora's I Wanna Feel You on Purple Sun Records introduces Deep Tech House. Monologue's Time Machine on Feel Hype and Miklavcic's Sick on Purple Sun Records keep the melodic tension in place.
Hummingbird's Clearing Space, released through Vested Recordings, carries the same melodic thread into the middle of the selection. Kilany M's Rhodos on PDD Tamed precedes Fausto Arduino's Transistor, which returns the programme to Peak Time Techno on the same label.
Sergey Kors contributes Anomaly on Syncopate Afterhours, while SABRI's Lee Pennington remix of Interstellar Machine appears via Paradiso Records. Franky Klassen's Far on Feel Hype and Monarke's Apache on Steyoyoke sustain the melodic House and Techno emphasis into the later section.
Locomosquito's Dark Bass and Rhythm Wolf & Lamb on Menomale Music turns towards Tech House, with Marsha's Penelope on D-ROM following that direction. Deetech closes the final stretch with Red Tide on Basica Recordings before Endor's extended mix of Fur on Defected provides the programme's final Tech House cut.
