Tony Nicholls and Grant Richards aka Deeptrak are two DJs that have traversed the London and Essex party scene for over 20 years, often crossing paths, but only starting work together several years ago. They have nearly 40 years between them of playing for two extremely long running events – Clockwork Orange and Kinky Malinki – and playing for those events has seen them tick off clubbing hot spots like Ibiza, Marbella, Croatia, Dubai and Amsterdam along with a variety of clubs across the globe and all over the UK.

Two down to earth, professional and humble DJs who know how to get the job done, whether that’s a mood setting warm up, or a hand’s in the air headline set. The pair very much respect their house music roots, which is often evident in their productions. Their sets feature plenty of their own material, edits and even their own updates of classics such as Toddy Terry’s ‘Jumpin’ or Victor Romero’s ‘Love Will Find A Way’.

Tony not only is a DJ and skilled producer, but he is a club owner in his native Essex. Grant has always been interested in the PR/Marketing side of the scene and has interviewed a variety of DJs including Simon Dunmore, Low Steppa and Sam Divine. 

Their most successful track to date has been their update of the UK Garage classic ‘Girls Like Us’ by B15 Project, which eventually signed to Armada after a bidding war after a promotional clip of the remix on their Facebook page went viral pretty much overnight amassing over 3 million views along with several plays on Radio One.

Recent success has seen their remix of Ridney & Terri B!s ‘Rise Up’ supported by a diverse variety of DJs including Claptone, Purple Disco Machine, SKT, Low Steppa, Tough Love and Apres whilst featuring on the Music Week Cool Cuts chart for several weeks reaching #13

The modern media landscape can mean that the next big thing can come from anywhere, but not every new whizz kid has the experience, sensibility, respect for heritage and work ethic that the Deeptrak guys bring to the table.

Electronic music has always been filled with innovative individuals, but even among such company, Dean Zepherin is a producer who has managed to find his lane and appeal.  Born and raised in London, a suitably eclectic city for a man of his musical persuasion he is renowned for his consistently genre-pushing productions, having also spent time in Berlin, it became another city that’s left its mark on his always-captivating sound.
To fully appreciate and understand Zepherin’s approach, it’s necessary to go back to his roots in Harrow, London as it was here where he first encountered soul, funk and jazz fusion records. From an early age he was obsessed with these out-there sounds, as well as their ability to metaphorically transport him to a world far away from the confines of his hometown.
Adopting a more electronic-based sound later on, he soon became a natural at conjuring up “house” tunes with more than a hint of soul, the likes of which spoke to his own Caribbean roots. In the process, Zepherin describes his own raison d’etre with concise charm as ‘championing the emergence of indigenous influence in electronic music’, something now so endemic to much of the most in-vogue house productions, displaying a worldview that values above all the organic and the human in this machine. 
While he’s undoubtedly best known for his work over the past nine years, establishing Tribe as one of the world’s leading labels pushing the afro and soulful envelope, his own legacy goes way back to 1988 when he released ‘Give me back your Love’ under the pseudonym Boyz in Shock, credited as the UK’s first soulful house record.
His label Tribe remains a vehicle for his many solo productions and collaborations and has hosted works and remixes from a diverse range of artists and legends across the electronic music board, as well as hosting his esteemed works with labels Defected, Suol, No Fuss, Soul 2 Soul, Vega records and Jack Trax. 
Zepherin’s productions deliver impeccable slices of soulful and afro sounds fused in a futuristic musicality in which he emphasises the tension that soul music can have, rather than the release. His tracks and particularly his dubs under his moniker Zepherin Saint, are often full of suspense and atmosphere – check his ‘Take You There’ on Suol, or his ‘Skyy and Butterflies Dubs’ released on his own imprint.
Equally respected as a DJ as he is a producer, Zepherin gained his schooling playing the London sound system circuit in the 80’s and managing the legendary Black Market record store in the 90’s.  His unique talents of playing dance music with no boundaries have been sought after in the likes of Japan, Africa, North America, Indonesia, Canada, Europe Australia and the Middle East, while on a club level he’s left his mark at world renowned clubs like Contact, Tresor, Watergate, Cielo, Stereo, Djoon, Ministry of Sound and Pacha. 
A man of many considerable sounds and styles, it’s hardly surprising that Dean Zepherin’s colourful and diverse approach continues to enthral clubbers and electronic music connoisseurs across the world.
