About Me


DeepCitySoul are the mesmerizing Birmingham based duo that have fast come under the spotlight, owing to their fascinating production style and suitably eclectic DJ sets that, without doubt captivate the crowds. Matt McKillop and Owen Taylor devised DeepCitySoul out of their necessity and love for quality house music, which has subsequently provided them the platform to associate with some of the most prolific artists and DJs around today.
Influenced primarily by Masters at Work,Llorca, Dennis Ferrer, Kerri Chandler and Blaze, the DeepCitySoul productions deliver a distinctive sound, astutely blending aspects of soul and jazz with exceptional house and funk rhythms. They recieve regular support from the likes of Tony Humphries, Miguel Migs and Dimitri from Paris.
Being a relatively fresh brand in the house music scene, the DeepCitySoul discography already includes releases and remixes on Universe Media, Universe City, ToolRoom, Pacha Multimedia, Moneypennys Music , LoveHouse Records, Further Recordings and Citrus. They are now working under their very own DeeCeeEss label, providing them with the opportunity to work with the likes of Pete Tong, Timmy Vegas, Jake Island, Graeme Park, Guy Robin, Fanatix, Kenny Thomas, Pauline Henry, Sybil, Peyton and Shola Ama to name only a few.
Representing themselves and the brand DeepCitySoul, Matt and Owen have a wealth of experience in the house music industry. As DJs they have procreated their individual sounds that animate dance floors across the globe.
Owen Taylor is relatively young considering the success he has achieved. Previous to forming DeepCitySoul, Owen had been producing for various independent labels and promoting events for worldwide super brand Godskitchen. Being classically trained and adept in a number of instruments (Piano, Drums, Clarinet, Saxophone), Owen brings essential ingredients to the DCS camp.
Matt McKillop's passion for house music was exposed when his event, Boogie Wonderland established itself. It ran for 8 years and toured across his home country, Australia, cramming venues of 1500+ on a weekly basis. Matt has been involved in production and remixing since settling in the UK, working as the A & R representative for Further Recordings since 2001. He also works with a number of producers under a variety of familiar names in house music, including DropFunkDialect and Nowheremen.
DJing as the collective DeepCitySoul they have featured alongside Louie Vega, DJ Spen, Joey Negro, Norman Jay, Karizma, Sasha & Digweed, Carl Cox, Charles Webster, Sir Piers, Alistair Whitehead, Kklass and Bert Bevans for established events such as Global Gathering, Godskitchen (where they hold a monthly residency), The Factory, Café Mambo, The Rainbow, Pacha (Ibiza), Chuff Chuff, Miss Moneypennys, Ministry Of Sound, El Devino and The Garden Party (Croatia). They are now also running their own events namely House is Home, Further and Like Minded, alongside having a string of prominent UK residencies.
Delivering a steady stream of fresh productions and remixes in conjunction with their regular international DJ appearances, DeepCitySoul are fast becoming a household name and one to watch out for in the very near future!
