Deeper Substance - the pre wmc edition feat: superstar DJ DEMI

along with crobar resident Jaun Mejia and Nerve Resident Jon Cowan

DJ magazine recently quoted Deeper Substance as a place to discover deliciously devastating house music. It is this strong music policy defined by both the star residents and the strength of world-wide talent this night has managed to pull since its conception in May 2001 that has led to increasing recognition from the music press.

Now into it's third year and in its new spiritual home at The Rhythm Factory, the night has been gaining considerable support from the likes of Danny Tenaglia and Pete Tong, with it being regularly featured in top nights out on his Essential Selection show. Become a part of this regular miami installment of deeper substance @ nerve.

SOME INFO ON OUR BELOVED DEMI:

“An Up and Coming DJ to look out for!†(PETE TONG, Essential Selection)

“His sets are awesome. Incredibly hard-working and talentedâ€

(DANNY TENAGLIA)

“One of the most invigorating and stimulating DJ’s DJ mag has seen all yearâ€

(DJ Magazine Nov 2003)

When you’ve been asked by legendary DJ Danny Tenaglia to fly over to New York twice and warm up for him at his Be Yourself residency at Vinyl/Arc as well as being asked by distinguished DJ John Digweed to perform a guest mix on his acclaimed Kiss 100 London Show, you being to realise the extent of how far this young talented and hard working individual has come in such a short space of time.

Demi is a nu-breed of enterprising young DJ’s, demonstrating not only the skill of the DJ, but the sheer determination and hard graft needed to make yourself count and stand amongst the elite in the industry.

Having learnt his trade with an exclusive summer residency in Bali for Indonesia’s biggest Club Night, Global Hedonism in 2000, Demi returned to the UK and along with his partner Sian, set up Deeper Substance in May 2001. With Sian moving on to pursue her solo interests, Demi has been carving a reputation for hosting one of London’s best kept secrets attracting some of the finest DJ’s on the planet including Lee Burridge, Rui da Silva, James Zabiela and Peace Divison.

The night has been a platform for Demi to establish himself and be heard across the globe. As well as playing alongside Tenaglia in New York on four separate occasions, Demi has continually been touring, hosting Deeper Substance parties across the globe.

An extensive summer tour in the US (including a coveted main room slot at Club Space in Miami) as well as regular visits to Miami during the Winter Music Conference period has seen Demi win many admirers all over the States and in South America. His recent US summer tour 2003, saw Demi gain respect from punters and promoters in Miami, Tijuana, Ecuador, and in Los Angeles.

The success of the summer tour also landed Demi with a debut performance at Ibiza’s legendary Pacha club at the DEF MIX Closing party as well as extra dates playing extended 5 hour sets with DT at Arc in New York.

Demi’s efforts have also seen the night reach to the Far East this year with a spectacular show in Hong Kong at the exclusive Club Ing and will be touring Australasia again during the Winter 2004.

Demi’s talent and perseverance has also seen him be booked on several occasions to play for Cream both in the UK and abroad since reaching the finals in a national competition run by Muzik and Cream to find Cream’s new resident, playing alongside the likes of Jon Carter, Sander Kleinenberg and standing in for Nick Warren on tour in Egypt.

On the production side to things, Demi has been busy in the studio collaborating with producers and caused a stir on his debut at Arc playing with DT with a track, which he dubbed “The Bass Testâ€. The track known as Stinker which was a collaboration with Max Mason (whose own track Doin It is featured on the new 24/7 Global Underground CD by Lee Burridge) has been devastating dancefloors as well as sound systems across the globe.

Their follow up track `Riding Close` moves to the more deeper progressive circles, demonstrating the diversity of the pair.

Further tracks completed included a remix of one of his all time classics “Let’s Dance†by David Bowie, which with the help of LA’s up and coming producers Trifactor sees Demi now attempt to stamp further his own unique sleaze fuelled house sound.

The track has been receiving rave reviews and support from the likes of Sander Kleinenberg and Desyn Masiello as well as Bowie and his management, who liked the remix so much, that they are featuring it on a forthcoming CD release of remixes of David Bowie tracks.

The follow up to “Let’s Danceâ€, “Hypokondriak†has been road-tested throughout the summer and looks set to be the track that thrusts Demi into the limelight. Still unfinished, the track has been setting dancefloors across the globe alight. Again fusing percussive rhythms, sleazy deep throbbing basslines with an incredible piano arrangement by studio partner Solare, . DT and Francois K were both so impressed with the track that he requested his own copy.

2004 looks set to build on the momentum from 2003. As Pete Tong, said, “watch him fly!â€

:D this should be the perfect way to warm up for wmc.. free admission til 11pm - open bar til 11pm for list - email sammi@nervelounge.com - see you all at nerve - the little club that could!:D
