Gerry Hectic's roots are in 1970s Birmingham. He has also lived in Bournemouth, Balham SW17 but mostly, Walthamstow E17. With a short career as club DJ over before it started (see Hoe Street Cinema), the boy Hectic forgot the Soho nite club scene and headed for the anonymity of real ale Pubs and East London CAMRA. Excessive drinking and smoking replaced the punk, reggae and samba-jazz of his youth. Things didn't look up until he met Mrs. Hectic. The pair settled down in East London and produced two daughters.

Much later, after becoming a vegetarian and having quit smoking, we now find Hectic on the broadband of modern music with a newfound enthusiasm to catch up on missed years. Picking up from the metaphysical days when DJs Paul Murphy and Gilles Peterson left him to carry their 12"s and dusty LPs to Dingwalls and the Electric Ballroom in Camden, he's now dedicated himself to finding the perfect beat for the 'Jazz Room' of life. Each week he reports on what he has uncovered for 3hedz in The Gerry Hectic Review. Fly has been kind enough to host some of his longer electronic scratchings.

Stay peaceful, keep creative.
