Guy Gerber’s Rumors Party emerged as a clandestine beach party in Ibiza several years ago, since then it has emerged into a global touchpoint for cutting edge underground house music held in far flung locales. Rumors has traveled from cliff top locales in Ibiza, to Mayan cenotes in Mexico, to courtyards in old London town, evolving into a one-of-a-kind party, that could only have been conceived by the contrarian imagination of Guy Gerber.

After a summer spent hosting an oceanfront Sunday party in Ibiza, Rumors will migrate West, touching down for a open-air fashion week soiree at the Mirage in Brooklyn. This year Rumors has already hosted Coachella’s ‘most epic after-party’, sold-out it’s annual block party in Los Angeles’ historic Chinatown and popped up poolside in Miami during WMC.

Gerber’s party has built its name hosting the most exciting talent from across the spectrum of electronic music. In 2018 Rumors has already showcased emerging stars like DJ Seinfeld and Bedouin as well as icons like DJ Harvey, Sven Väth and Danny Tenaglia.

In NYC Gerber will be joined by his brother in arms, Crosstown Rebels sonic wizard Damian Lazarus, DC10’s new resident Lauren Lane, and Australian fire-cracker and party starter Kaz James.

Rumors New York will run from sunset deep into the night, with Gerber playing an extended set. The Garden will be hosted by LA’s most fabulous pansexual party, the inimitable Club Called Rhoda, led by Rhoda’s DJs Goddolars and Paradise. Taking place under the open Brooklyn skyline at the iconic Brooklyn Mirage uring one of NYC’s most exciting weeks of the year, this is a party not to be missed.

In the last year Gerber has debuted a new live set at the legendary Hollywood Bowl, remixed Tokimonsta’s Don’t Call Me and released his EP What to Do, which has been soundtracking discerning dancefloors throughout the summer, and points to a new body of work forthcoming from Gerber in 2019.

One thing about a rumor is that it takes a minute to start one and a life-time to stop it. Like any guilty pleasure, a good Rumor is a little bit clandestine, a little bit naughty, and something you always want more of
 

About Guy Gerber

Guy Gerber has always favored the road less traveled. The Israeli DJ thrives on confounding expectations. What other underground DJ could collaborate with one of hip-hops biggest moguls, Puff Daddy, or start a left-field night at one of Ibiza’s most commercial clubs, Pacha? What other producer blends the worlds of melancholy and euphoria so effortlessly, or turns in a breakup album as an official mix for a revered club brand? It’s these kind of contradictions that define Gerber’s compelling duality.

Before he was fiddling with drum machines and synths, Gerber was all about groups like Joy Division and My Bloody Valentine. These influences still echo clearly in his music today, whether it be his hypnotizing live performances or contemplative, moody productions. Over the course of four albums, Gerber has shown himself to be a singular artist. In 2007, he brought his debut album Late Bloomers to Sven Vath’s Cocoon, following that with 2009’s My Invisible Romance. In 2012 and 2013, he usurped the concept of a mix CD, delivering a Fabric album made up of 100% original new productions; then on Who’s Stalking Who creating an LP more akin to an extended composition than anything else.

As a performer, Guy Gerber is consistently rated one of the best touring acts in dance music, earning a top 10 live performer nod three years in a row for Resident Advisor. When DJing he’s known for extended sets, epitomized by a 12-hour performance at Burning Man in 2014. Gerber’s sets are never forgettable, and he has an unerring ability to disrupt expectations, whether it be confounding Ibiza VIPs with his 2013 Wisdom of the Glove residency at Pacha -- which even caught the New York Times’ attention -- or 12 months later going in a totally new direction with his clandestine free Ibiza beach party, Rumors. Even at more traditional club residencies like those he holds at Marquee, Sound, and Story, Gerber acts as the subversor, transforming the normative experience into something alive with mysticism and mystique.

On the label front, Gerber has helped curate and A&R some of underground music’s most intriguing talents. His label Supplement Facts hosted everyone from Chaim, to dOP, Guti and Kate Simko. In typical Gerber fashion, just as it was reaching its apex he put it on hold to launch a new imprint Rumors, a befitting title for the mischievously minded Gerber. The new project is off to a promising start, serving as home to Guy’s colossal collaboration with Dixon, “No Distance,” as well as his crossover album with Puff Daddy, 11:11, which proved one of 2014’s most startling and impressive LPs. As with Supplement Facts, Rumors reiterates Gerber’s attention to the visual aesthetic. Both labels have seen him collaborating with artists all over the globe -- most recently, visual trio WIFE at Art Basel in Miami.

What’s next for Guy Gerber? Like any good rumor, it’s sure to have tongues wagging.
