DJ DEEKLINE

DJ Deekline makes up one half of the dancefloor-destroying duo that is Deekline and Wizard ( aka Nick Annand and Greg Fleming). Deekline started collecting records as a youngster, inspired by funk and electro, before becoming interested in hardcore and jungle; which led to him being at the forefront of breakbeat culture from the beginning. He has become an iconic name within the breakbeat, Miami bass and dance scene, creating his own unique sound of breakbeat, with a more funky and electro twist, and more recently incorporating a Miami bass style.

Deekline has made a name for himself as a highly skilled DJ and producer being responsible for tunes like "Don't Smoke The Reefer", an official remix of Old Dirty Bastards' "Got Your Money" and "Every Posse & Crew" (with FreQ Nasty) rocketing into the dance charts in the UK and earning Nick maximum kudos in the breaks, garage and 2-step scenes and not to mention his Rat Records label which is gaining momentum in the breakbeat scene for its attention to high quality breakbeat releases.

Over the past 6 years Deekline has been playing in every major city throughout the globe, from Sofia to Sydney, and Frankfurt to Tokyo.

Deekline can credit himself with five tours of America, three tours of Eastern Europe, and two tours of Australia, with more tour dates to follow in 2007. Not only this, Deekline is the founder of up and coming record label ‘Rat Records’ which to date has put out 23 successful releases.
Last year saw the release, of Deekline’s 11 track long-awaited debut album ‘Breaks, Beats & Blondes’, a collaboration with partner Wizard, which led to them being recognised more prominently as one of breakbeats most uber-production duos.

Deekline also runs various club nights, mainly in London, including Bounce at Bar Rhumba, which is now infamous as the UK’s no.1 booty bouncing event. Furthermore, he has worked with everyone from Top Cat to Skinny man, as well as all the major names in the breakbeat scene; Freestyles, Arthur Baker, Stanton Warriors, just to name but a few. His remixes span everyone from Armand Van Heldon, Old Dirty Bastard, Stereo Mcs, and Freesylers. His last track ‘Fame & The Money’ (which was made under the Booty Bouncer title with Wizard) was play listed on MTV .

‘Touch Your Toes’ was signed to Norman Cook’s ‘Skint’ label and went on to full release in the summer of 2006 and in the last year Deekline has been behind some of the biggest selling break beat anthems the scene has ever witnessed, such as the ‘Outta Space’ boot leg which went on to get signed by German label ‘Super Star’, the ‘Boom Blast’ remix for Freestylers and the Armand Van Heldon remix ‘My My My’, Zane Lowes tune of the week on Radio One and one of the best remixes of the year. Both remixes went up for remix of the year at the breaks poll awards in 2006.

In addition to his music, business and record label, Deekline also has a soft spot for pairs and blondes and would one day like to create his own blondes with big pairs machine! Deekline’s drive behind the creation of this scene is to make music that girls just want to wiggle too and has worked out that he has the most excellent view from the turntables to witness such acts.

DJ Annalyze

Fresh off tour with DJ Quik, Annalyze has established herself as one of the leading ladies in Breakbeat, turntablism & hip-hop. She has played all over the US and Canada, alongside DJs such as Qbert, Baby Anne, the X-ecutioners, Dopey and DJ Rap, to name a few. Annalyze has also toured with DJs such as Breakbeat sciences own Reid speed & Playboys 50th anniversary DJ Shortee.

Her stellar turntablism and mixing style have earned her national sponsorships. In June of 2006 she toured as DJ Quiks tour dj and even had a performance on the Jimmy Kimmel show along sides "Cypress Hills" own B-real & "Blink 182's" Travis Barker. Regularly rocking the club and party scene, crowds are not only mesmerized by Annalyzes DMC scratching and turntable trickery, but by her energetic stage presence which creates a vibe that keeps the dancefloor moving all night long. The crowd-pleaser that she is, Annalyze can often be found stepping away from the turntables and joining the crowd in a dance! But in order to truly understand Annalyze, lets take it back to the beginning, to her first residency in Rochester, New York at the legendary club Vibes.

At Vibes, where she played mostly Breakbeats and House, her passion of music fueled her to explore different possibilities and to take DJing to the next level. And coincidentally in the fall of 2001, she became inspired by local scratch/turntablist DJs and realized that scratching was what she really wanted to learn. Two years later at the winter NAMM show 2003 she was able to showcase her skills.. Returning at winter NAMM 2004 show, Annalyze played alongside fellow scratch mistress DJ Shortee (one half of the Atlanta-based duo Faust & Shortee.) Together, Annalyze and Shortee form the first female scratch duo called Twice as Nice. Both ladies are featured in two female DJ documentaries entitled Girl" and Vinyl is a Girl's Best Friend.

Annalyze is also featured in DJ Shortees new instructional DJ DVD entitled DJ shortees 202 . It doesnt end there. Annalyze has also recently stepped into the studio where shes been working on original material with the goal of releasing her first track by the january of 2006. Shes also been collaborating with other Breakbeat producers and has been sampling her scratches for use in their material. Annalyze was featured on Dj fixx's own "bottom end recordings" ..20 & ..31 . She is also doing cuts for other bottom end recordings & afterdarks own Jbreak!! Annalyze is also workin on a few hip hop collaborations with Eyeconz entertainment. Through Eyeconz she has been playing more hip hop and party rocking style. And to think - her journey has just begun!
