About Gerard Laatz
I have been djing from around 1998 still on me beloved vinyl. I only really started taking it serious about 2 years ago. I Residented at Voodoo Lounge, News cafe Bedfordview and obviously did my 2hr sets around jhb. I was asked to play in Mozambique in December 2010 but declined due to personal reasons. I stopped playing out at the beggining 2011 as I wanted to redefine my music and only now I think I have it. I have put out a cd (nothing major just burned off my laptop) and the response has been overwhelming. I play trance but please I know most guys think reckless dj playing at 140bpm. It’s not it’s a light journey from 128bpm to 130bpm with good summer vibes. I on the other hand can play a progressive set filled with tech sounds, breaks and progressive trance which can go up to 135bpm. I don’t go quicker as I don’t click with that speed. I consider my sound upliftiing and epic with vocal. My inspirations are. Paul Oakenfold, Chicane, Faithless, John Digweed, Carl Cox, U2 and Linkin Park.
