On April 20th, 2024, Rex KL is set to host an extraordinary fusion of music and visual arts, brought to life by RXP+ and EvenIf. At the center of this audiovisual feast is A Guy Called Gerald, a name that resonates deeply within the electronic music realm. Gerald, hailing from the vibrant Manchester scene, is celebrated not just as a DJ but as a pioneering force whose tracks, notably “Voodoo Ray,” have left an indelible mark on the acid house movement and beyond. Released in 1988, it became a key piece of the acid house puzzle, capturing the euphoria and freedom of the era. His evolution into jungle and drum & bass further cements his status as a musical innovator.

Gerald didn’t stop there though, he became a pivotal member of the electronic group 808 State (another name that rings bells in the halls of dance music royalty). Together they pushed the boundaries of what electronic music could be.

Aside from his music, Gerald’s influence over the decades has been nothing short of incredible. He has inspired countless DJs and producers across the world, with beats from the heart of Manchester that moved the world.

The Journey with A Guy Called Gerald

This event isn’t just about reliving the glory days of electronic music; it’s a journey through its evolution, guided by Gerald’s visionary hands. His LIVE set promises to be a masterclass in electronic music history, while also pushing into new territories. The inclusion of local DJs like Roshan, Loveseat, and the electrifying partnership of Jony Maddkids b2b with Gasing adds a local flavor, showcasing the diversity and talent within Kuala Lumpur’s own electronic music scene.

But what sets this event apart is its commitment to creating an immersive experience. The collaboration with visual artist Arnaud Blondel and RXP transforms Rex KL into a canvas of light, color, and motion. Each beat and note from Gerald’s set will be visually echoed, creating a captivating experience that blurs the lines between sight and sound. Blondel’s reputation for jaw-dropping visual narratives promises an event where the visual spectacle matches the auditory brilliance.
