Douglas Deep is one of the many pseudonyms of music producer Steve Kelly. However, you may know him as Macerator, Manfred Hamil or as his original incarnation, SK123. Steve has been releasing his diverse range of electronica to appreciative online audiences for the last 20 years.
Covering all styles of electronic music from Techno to Ambient, Drum 'n' Bass to Breaks, Glitch to Dub, Steve's capricious production style invites and rewards repeated listens. The sheer variety of his output is matched only by his consummate ability to weave compelling electronic threads and abstract storylines through his work.
Although typically shying away from live performances, Steve can be found occasionally collaborating with other likeminded artists such as Dementio13 (Wales), Pixieguts (Aus) and Wayne D'Mellow (UK).
To quote the aforementioned Dementio13 from is his review of Douglas Deep's debut album '&U';
"So often the term IDM (Intelligent Dance Music) is bandied around, but basically it means nothing. In Steve′s case, ‘intelligent’ is exactly what it is. Coupled with a sense of melody, drama and incredibly deep production, creating the subtlest of sound-scapes at times; or the hardest audio assault at others."
