Biography
"Steve Gerrard is another DJ who is making a name for himself by delivering
great sets everywhere he goes. He always rocks it at Bedrock when he plays."
John Digweed
Steve Gerrard is a name that, if you follow progressive music, you will be
hearing plenty of in 2001. Hailing from Chester, he now lives in Birmingham,
UK and got his first taste of house music in 1994 when he was given a copy
of the first Renaissance album. He recalls hearing the track "Song Of Life"
by Leftfield and it completely changed his ear for music and his life today.
In 1998, Steve won Muzik Magazine's Bedroom Bedlam competition and since
then his career has gone from strength to strength. With influences that
range from the Sasha and Digweed, Nick Warren and Danny Howells to Adam
Freeland and Hybrid and the technical skills of Anthony Pappa, he has
developed quite a unique style. Which is: Deep, progressive house mixed with
breakbeat and a hint of trance, building steadily and creating a set which
is more than the sum of its parts. All the while keeping in mind that it is
his job to make people want to dance and keep on dancing.
Moving along to the present, Steve's living the life that many aspiring DJ's
hope for. He gets to travel all over the world, meeting new people and
playing great music. "If you're lucky", he says "this job allows you to do
all three of those things, and that's something I'm very grateful for."
Although we know it's more than just luck that will take you places. Some of
Steve's notable DJing accomplishments include: Winning the Ericsson Muzik
Award (best bedroom bedlam DJ 2000), starting his own successful club night
in Birmingham called Subspace and headlining at some of the world's greatest
clubs such as Nikita in San Francisco and Giant in Los Angeles. That is just
a small sample of his accomplishments, with a full DJing schedule, Steve has
had the opportunity to play at the following venues with some of the top
DJ's from around the world: Bedrock; Home (London); Nikita (San Francisco);
Giant (LA); Spundae (WMC Miami); Limelight (NYC); Skysound (Mexico); Fluid
(Hong Kong); God's Kitchen; Ministry of Sound; The End (London);
Sundissential; Progress (Istanbul); Snakepit (Denver); Club Amsterdam
(Denver); Trance Buddha (Amsterdam) and alongside Anthony Pappa, Steve
Lawler, Nick Warren, Adam Freeland, Hybrid, Hyper, Craig Richards, Justin
Robertson and John Digweed. His broad musical tastes have given him the
great chance to appear as the support DJ for Oasis at Wembley Stadium in
front of 93,000 people!!!
In other areas, Steve's mixes have been featured on such infamous dance
radio shows such as Pete Tong's Essential Selection and John Digweed's Kiss
FM show in London. He also had the opportunity to have one of his mixes
featured on the cover of the monthly Muzik Magazine (December 2000), which
included tracks by Moby, BT, Underworld, Layo & Bushwacka! and Parks &
Wilson.
As if the life of a jet-setting wasn't enough, Steve's focusing on
production in 2001, and one can only imagine what banging tunes he will put
out, and whether or not it will lean towards a progressive or breakbeat edge
or perhaps a little bit of both. Xpander called Steve "one of the most
impressive upcoming DJ's in the world", and Chris from Hybrid said in Muzik
magazine that "Steve is one of the best up and coming DJs I've heard in a
long time. He has very similar tunes in his box to me, actually - deep,
progressive tracks that aren't too shiny! I walked into a club recently and
he was playing most of the stuff I was going to play... God knows where he
gets all those tunes!"
