"DJ DEITY, FUTURE FUNK INFINITY DJS AND O.3.D
William D Holland III born Dec.15, 1977. Aka DJ Deity.
Deity has always been enthused by the thought of making music. To Deity it was the most powerful and motivating force in the universe. He knew from a very young age that the love of music would keep him going toward his goal. From rock to rap, hardcore to house, Deity has been influenced by all and it is reflected in his diversity as a dj and a producer. Deity feels that to be a true artist you have to first be true to yourself, first and foremost . With his keen sence of knowing what he likes and what the crowd wants to hear Deity always has a sense of what to bring to the tables.
Deity started in the industry in 1999 and in the clubs since 2001. Deity has spun along side some of Florida's top dj's such as: DJS 303 , Three Bad Brother's, Faze & D-Lerium, WizzKid, Factor E, Tony Faline, Chris Craze, DJ Deuce, DJ Mondo, Davie-D, MyKeyMike, DJ Neto, Jade , The Future Funk Infinity DJ's and the Untouchables. Deity was inspired by the sound he had discovered in dj's and producers such as DJ Icey, Agent K and Deuce, Huda Hudia, Rabbit in the Moon, Tiesto, Paul Van Dyke, Hybrid, B.T, Deekline and Wizzard, Stantion Warriors, AutoBots etc. As the scene changed so did the music Deity likes to stay on the cutting edge of music evolution and has found a new sound he likes to incorporate into his sets, high energy heavy hard hitting nu-skool beats and deep bass lines accented with sweet melodic vocals (always guaranteed to keep the dance floor packed and the crowd screaming for more). With his smooth as silk mixing accompanied by a dynamic turntablistic approach to djing makes Deity a serious entertainer and a force to be reckoned with. DJ Deity has spun at such clubs as:
Club Skye, Ybor City. Tampa, Fl.(Resident)
Club Pyro, Ybor City. Tampa, Fl. (Resident),
Kachaza's Patio, Ybor City. Tampa. Fl.(Resident)
Faze 2 Lounge, Tampa, Fl. (Resident),
The Groovy Mule Late Night, Tampa, Fl.
Gonzo's Night Club, Lakeland, Fl.
The Majestic, Clearwater, Fl.
And most recently Club Quench, Brandon Fl.(Resident)
It wasn't long before Deity and his crew the Future Funk Infinity DJ's (DJs Jade, Mynx, Philimmon, Oracle, Deity, and D Mac ) where frequently guest djs on various internet radio shows and finally hosting a show of their own on www.Tampa.FM called "Live From Club Infinity". Fans from around the world were tuning in but Tampa.FM was a station in turmoil and soon was no more...but that wasn't it for Deity and the FFI djs, soon they were back doing what they do best "moving the world one beat at a time", and streaming live on WWW.BPM.FM Sat 7-11pm. . Taking a different approach with his group "Future Funk Infinity" they developed a live multi dj with multi turntable set and added their blend of style and diversity for a mind blowing experience. Most recently Deity and Oracle took their talents and syle to a station devoted strictly to their main style of E.D.M. Breakbeats @ www.Unitedbreaks.fm With their show Audio Alchemy . Streaming live every wed 10:30-12:30 est.
After a lengthy tour of residencies and various guest spots Deity decided it was time to take a break from spinning in clubs and concentrate on producing. With the help of producers like 303, Dj MykeyMike , DJ Oracle and the entire Future Funk Infinity crew, Deity was able to express himself through his own production. Deity now has several remixes and original Digital releases on clubtunesonline.com. Deity and DJ Oracle have been given the opportunity to do a couple of official remixes. From Tears of Technology (Saphera) and also a live breakbeat band out of the Netherlands called RavenGlass ("looking glass" and "live or die").
Here is a bit of their press release (Ravenglass)
