DJ/Producer
Deep South Music aka Gordon John has been a dj on the London underground scene with a decade of experience in the highly competitive bar & club scene. First starting off in Soho’s bars, from here he quickly moved onto the club scene including a long resident stint at Substation Soho which then led him to the world famous club Heaven, where he became a resident for almost ten years. He has played most of the big clubs in London - Fire, DTPM, Trade, Crash, Action, Juicy Melt, Habit, Warriors, Salvation, Factor 25 and Heaven as well as regular once a month guest gigs in Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds and Nottingham, Cardiff, Bristol and Plymouth.
Gordon’s reputation of spinning quality house music soon spread further and recent years we have seen him spread his wings internationally and clock up gigs in Milan, Rome, Verona, Paris, Amsterdam, Barcelona, Berlin, Hamburg, Munich, Cologne, Copenhagen, Helsinki, New York, Atlanta, San Francisco, Seattle, Canada, South Africa & Australia. He also runs his own club nights in London, New York, Seattle, Atlanta, and San Francisco. At present in London you can catch him at Orange Events such as A:M, Gravity, Beyond & Orange, in London & abroad for Papa events also soon in Europe for Cox @ Italy, Cocon @ Krakow, Insomnia @ Marseille plus further afield gigs in Atlanta, Sydney, Toronto, Melbourne, New York, San Francisco & San Diego. His sound ranges from deep & dirty to techy & funky.
This last year has seen Gordon enter a different realm and earn a different respect as he discovered a love for producing music. These days he spends much of his time producing tech house music with successful & future releases as himself or as Deep South Music on labels such as Instereo, Hot Fingers, Kidology, Zero Urban, Jungle Funk, Koolwaters, Rock-It, Playground, Subterraneo, Hedonistic, Nova27, Conkrete Digital, Soulfreak, Influential, Jango, Patent Skillz, Avenue Recordings, Check-In, Leap4rog, Red Drum Music, No Color, Phunk Traxx and Tripoli Trax. With Gordon’s tracks receiving a lot of love from other djs and growing in reputation, you’re bound to be hearing the name Gordon John/Deep South Music a lot more in the future.
