Touring top billing dj set along-side the likes of Richie Hawtin and Green Velvet (EXIT Festival, Serbia, as well as the legendary Detroit Electronic Music Fetival in Detroit) Jeff Mills (Tribal Sessions in Leeds), Jesse Rose, Dixon and Sebo K (for Jesse’s “Made to Play” monthly at Berlin’s legendary Panorama Bar), M.A.N.D.Y (Watergate, Berlin), Ewan Pearson and Will Saul (SONAR, Barcelona) to remix work for techno superstars Booka Shade, there’s much that can be said for this genre-mashing producer.

Detroit, Berlin, Tokyo, London, Sanfrancisco, Prague, Cologne, Manchester, Leeds, Serbia,  and more all feature in a yearly extensive dj/live touring schedule…club institutions Berghain/Panoramabar (Berlin), Watergate (Berlin), Endup (Sanfran), Sankeys (Manchester) all continue to feature on a saturated touring schedule.

From ‘big-label’ original releases for labels like Trapez and Resopal Schallware, remix work for legendary producers Booka Shade (Get Physical), Jimpster (Freerange), and [a]pendics.shuffle (Trapez / Adjunct Audio), deeper cuts for  Affin (German), and Kaato, and serious tech-weapons for BEEF, Om, and SanFrancisco’s Anabatic Records, a steady stream of bouncy, crunked-up tech-house sounds have insured deepchild has remained one of Australia’s most in-demand producers.

Butch, Hipp-e, Robert Babicz, Tigerstripes, Jet Project, Worthy, Jimpster, KiNK and Luomo (amongst others!) have all lent their remix credits to deepchild 12″s….

The journey has been a long and sonically expansive one. Recent dj support from the likes of Stacey Pullen, Troy Peirce (MINUS), Justin Martin (Dirtybird), Ivan Smagghe, Matthias Tanzman (Moon Harbour), and Abe Duque  sits solidly against the proclamations of respected music journal, The Wire, who went as far as to proclaim that this sound was “as sexy and addictive as new-dub electronica gets”. From quirky, stripped-back techno to deep dub explorations, deepchild has proven a robust producer and highly respected dj and live-performer.

When Stereo-Heaven (the biggest dj store in Essen, Germany) found that their biggest selling tech-house record was infact written in a small share-house studio in Sydney’s Inner-West (deepchild’s “No Disgrace”, on Future Classic), they took the time to make special mention of what is indicative of deepchild’s head-turning appeal:

“over here in my hometown in Germany, we really love “no disgrace”!! it’s also by far the best selling record in our new local shop, too…from deep or tech house to minimal djs, hiphop and electronica fans – everybody is into that 3-tracker…really an amazing 12″ you’ve created!”.

More recently, deepchild has produced #1-sellers for Anabatic Records and Cologne’s finest – Trapez…

Freerange Record’s ‘tech-house institution’, Milton Jackson, phrased is rather more succinctly, “Oh My God. I think you are my new hero”.
