Cedric
Gervais, came to South Florida at the young age of 18
with the focus to grow his name in the music industry
in the United States. Known for his personal blend of
progressive music and tribal house Cedric has built
an empire in the Miami scene with accomplishments that
extend across the US and Europe. Having secured both
local and international acclaim for his talent and diversified
music, his colorful list of accolades includes remixes
for nationally and internationally renowned celebrities.
World famous, Lenny Kravitz, approached Gervais personally
while hearing him spin at south beach staple hotspot
Crobar. Kravitz, appreciating his talents, decided to
work with Gervais, to produce the remixes for two of
Kravitz’s chart-stopping hits: “Believe
in Me and Stillness of Heart.” These projects
have set him apart due to “Stillness of Heart”
holding a spot on the Billboard Charts for four weeks
solid at number 10. The video can be seen on MTV2, MTV
Europe Mun2, and Altv3.
Cedric’s arrival from France in 1998, was a natural
“next step.” In his country, he was a resident
DJ at the ever-famous club Queen in Paris. Although
he had name recognition there, Cedric Gervais knew that
his desires were great and unlimited. He wanted to be
a top name in the club industry all over the world,
and a big player in Miami’s famous venues. He
concentrated on this goal, by unleashing his sound and
gaining huge popularity. He also created and incorporated
Gervais Music Inc with goals of: “Providing Artist
and DJ Management, Interaction and liaise with record
labels, Club involvement, and production / remixes.”
His goals have been brought forward and have built a
solid reputation for Gervais Music.
His various
accomplishments to date include working alongside
such world recognized names as: Robbie Rivera, Timo
Maas, Josh Wink, Lee Burridge, Tom Stephan (Super
Chumbo), Danny Howells, Angel Morales, Dirty Vegas,
Deep Dish, and Steve Lawler. Production accolades
include working in unison with meritorious producers
such as: Peter Rauhofer, David Waxman and Dirty Vegas.
His company,
Gervais Music is responsible for various projects
that have gained success in the global dance arena
with hits such as “Burning” on YU Records,
produced in collaboration with singer/songwriter Tony
Choy reaching #3 on Billboard’s Hot Club Play
chart as well as #1 on Steve Lawler’s Ministry
top 10 chart. Another to date, “Talking about
a Revolution,” featuring Shauna Solomon, released
by Hydrogen Records UK and Panic Attackers featuring
Alan T. “Rock the Beat” released by Star
69 have gained widespread success.
Part of
his company venture includes continuing the lineup
featuring Cedric as resident DJ of Crobar Miami, Chicago
and New York, as well as his residency at Indioloco
Nikki beach, Miami. He plans to also continue his
traveling show featuring guest DJs that has gained
spotlights in the club scene including, Club Stereo,
Montreal, and Pacha, Ibiza. This all part of his vision
to expose other areas of the world to his truly unique
sound capabilities as a DJ/Producer as well as bridging
the gap for some of his colleagues.
At this
time Cedric’s second focus is on his newest
venture: Crobar Records which he created in March
2003 alongside Crobar owners, Kenny Smith, and Callin
Frotis. Part of the venture includes the first release
being “Something about Your Body,” featuring
Shauna Solomon.
His future
goals are: “to continue building an awareness
of his musical sound, to sign artists, and to turn
his small empire to one worth millions by collaborating
with world renowned artists.”
