The Liquid Lowdown, the premier Auckland club night for 'Drum & Bass of a Soulful Nature & a Deeper Flavour' presents GEST (Shogun Audio)Harry Hackett & David Stone aka GEST (formally known as Gerra & Stone) have risen rapidly through the Drum & Bass world over the last 9 years. Having released on such commercially acclaimed labels as Ram Records, Dispatch Recordings and now signed to Shogun Audio - it’s fair to say their production style thrives on diversity.
The duo are equally at home taking a more soulful, vocal orientated direction with their music, for instance 2015’s release ‘Unbreakable’, as they are with more straight up dance floor smashers such as ‘Too Deep’ and ‘L.I.E.S’. It’s easy to see how their records have not only gained support from the majority of leading DJ’s in the genre such as Andy C and Friction, but are just as likely to be heard at deeper, underground Drum & Bass parties across the globe.
This diversity has lead to releases and remixes regularly charting into the genre’s top 10 on popular distribution platform Beatport, and taken their DJ career worldwide. The pair have extensively toured the UK and EU as well as more recently taking the G&S sound to North America, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Asia and South Africa - alongside being invited to record DJ mixes for well known brands brands such as BBC Radio1/ 1xtra, Fabriclive, Ministry of Sound, and more.
Their debut Dispatch Recordings album entitled ‘Polarism’ was released to critical acclaim in September 2017. The project received support from across the scene, as well as from household names like Noisia and Friction - and as a result charted into the Top 10 on Beatport and Juno Records. The 16 track playlist saw the pair move between both dark and light themes, and contained vocal features from Peta Oneir, Visionobi and JNR.
Their most recent EP 'Superstructure' out now on Shogun Audio has come with critical acclaim and features names such as Javeon
Also on the lineup we have the incredible production/DJ duo NOSPEAK, Coco and Liquid Lowdown's head honcho Chiccoreli
