Deepa is a dance floor favourite for her ability to connect genres with a signature warmth and flirtiness, exchanging energies with audiences through her sets that will see them leave a little sexier than when they entered. 

A love of community and culture has forever moulded Deepa’s personal ethos, with all of her music projects honing that even further. Through the airwaves via FBi Radio’s Thursday Sunset slot, on the ground running her own party Bypass, or across the nation as a founding member of Aus South Asian creative collective Kerfew, Deepa proudly champions the sound of Eoracore, broadcasting the interconnectedness that makes the city unique and bringing dancers along for the ride. As a DJ her history as part of duo Honey Point, an outfit championing cozy neo-soul and jazzy house, reflects into her club focussed selections, echoing a warmth and human touch that amplifies the intimacy of the dancefloor.

Deepa’s taste for all things naturalistic and clubby, finds her unifying genres and reshaping crowd expectations with a joyous charm. Playing with dichotomies of density and intensity, her craft looks outside of pure club and techno creating a hot’n’heavy dancefloor pastiche you can get lost in. Locked in grooves, chugging percussion and invigorating baselines are dealt with ease when she’s behind the decks, and after playing in her hometown of Eora Sydney for over seven years now she’s become a mainstay on dancefloors and as a part of the wider club community. 

Her ability to align with the energy of an audience and reflect their rhythmic needs has taken Deepa to the stages of Pitch Music & Arts Festival, Strawberry Fields Festival, Subsonic Festival and Boiler Room, as well as landing her a residency leading the legendary dancefloor of Club 77. This has also caught the attention of international acts such as Ahadadream, Jamz Supernova, Four Tet, John Talabot, Hagan, and Honey Dijon to name a few, pulling Deepa as support for their time in so called Aus.

Community is at the forefront of Deepa’s DJ practice, and with this branching into the European and Asian party scene she hopes to connect even further and sexify even more dancefloors.
