David Dee

DEEP HOUSE // NU DISCO // UNDERGROUND HOUSE DAVID DEE – INFAMOUS LAST WORDS: "It's all about House" Joe Claussell , Masters At Work , Francois Kevorkian , Marshall Jefferson , Frankie Knuckles to name a few were influences why the Maltese born started Djing. David Dominic Mizzi a.k.a. David Dee’s career kicked off after listening to Funk and Disco – "The vibe back in the days of Disco was extraordinary – I remember the first record I bought was “Dancer” by Gino Soccio followed by Patrick Hernandez “Born To Be Alive”. Then after the 70’s sound started to die, I got into a lot of new electronic sounds which we used to call New Wave. It was a great change, but my heart still was attached to Funk and Soul, so when House Music was born in the late 80’s, I was very happy cause I felt that this is going to be my future style. When Marshall Jefferson released “Move Your Body, he opened this genre for all DJs to start making music with a simple keyboard which does everything…then drum machine for grooves, etc. It's very funny to look back on that because now I am working with one of the innovators of House Music. There will always be a lot of producers who always inspire me such as Joe Claussell, Masters At Work and Francois K just to name a few. I am very selective nowadays – I spin Afro Latin-flavoured Jazz & Deep Souful House, but I play everything that sounds good in the end. I can drop a Techno, RnB or even Funky Disco track if the mood takes me, and I never seem to have let anyone down by doing that.” David’s current base is Miami Florida via New York since he runs a record label called Open House w/ Marshall Jefferson & Chauncey Alexander. The Austrian production team work was a destiny and since David’s spiritual theory, he felt that something was going to happen if he moves there. He met Romac (one half of Ultra Deep Boys) & Philipp in a record shop and was hearing some of their work and he quite liked it so he went humorously to introduce himself to them. A couple of days later and they started to work together producing Deep music as a production team in the name of Ultra Deep Productions and it was really great but he still felt that something bigger was about to come and change his life? Hooking up with legendary American singer CeCe Rogers – The hook up with the living legend CeCe Rogers was certainly the destiny mentioned above – to be established worldwide due to the effort he put in his career. It was just an e-mail followed by a phone call when he brought CeCe over for a couple of gigs in Austria and Switzerland since he was organizing and DJing at his own parties too. After talking to CeCe on the phone, they both felt that they should be doing some work together and during the period of time when CeCe had to come over to meet up, David sent him this track which he felt he can put some vocals on top of it. “After receiving the track, CeCe was calling me every second day and I was shocked ?cause I wasn’t expecting that he will call me but I then realized that the dream was becoming a music industry reality for David Dee. And so the story continues. CeCe’s hook up was the key to my dream and success.” David’s productions go under a countless stream of pseudonyms so he uses a lot of different names and in fact he does this due to record labels which may stop a career with just a simple name. Some of the names he records under Ultra Deep Productions and KJR Productions, and as an artist he records under Ultra Deep Boys, CeCe Rogers, NuPhunk, MoodLife and also DJ David Dee for his Unreleased Project Parts. His prolific DJing schedule has seen him playing worldwide in major countries such as USA, Canada, India, UK, Ibiza, Italy, Switzerland, Austria, Germany, Greece, Serbia, Croatia, Portugal, Georgia, Armenia, France to name a few. “My current biggest Gig memory is Belgrade seeing 10000 people screaming on every track I was playing followed by Street Parade in Zurich & Ibiza at Amnesia” Played alongside and collaborated with Erick Morillo, Roger Sanchez, Marshall Jefferson, Frankie Knuckles, Deep Dish… Grant Nelson, Eddie Amador, Brian Tappert, Junior Jack & Kid Creme, Spiller, Tiefschwarz, Dennis Ferrer, Quentin Harris, Nick Holder, Osunlade, DJ Camacho, Blaze, David Guetta, Tommy Vee, Soul Seduction and many more… What will we await from the Workaholic Master?? “I am currently working on various projects with my production partner and will be releasing my debut compilation at the end of the year. Watch out for it and stay tuned!” So as you may captured something from David Dee’s words, he is truly one of the most respected DJs, workaholic and always present for the next goal in his life.
