DEEKLINE AND THE WIZARD are the hottest and most talented production
duo to rock the London scene since the early nineties!!! Their
backgrounds are as diverse as you can imagine yet this allows
them to unleash a formidable and unique style! Their sound can
be described as breaks/house & electro meets Miami bass/UK
garage/Rock & Hiphop.
They have already captured interest from dance heavyweights notably
The Prodigy, Fatboy Slim , & The Chemical Brothers and are
receiving radio support as far as Australia and the USA.
2005 saw the release of the duo’s critically acclaimed first
album, “Breaks, Beats and Blondes”. And since then
the boys have been busy remixing tracks for the likes of Ol Dirty
Bastard, The Prodigy & Armand Van Heldon. With a 3 month US & AUSTRALIA
tour; together with the release of album No. 2 and mix CD “DEEKLINE & WIZARD
LIVE” 2006 Is already looking to be a big year for the booty
loving duo!!
“
Fresh, funky and fun-loving, Breaks Beats & Blondes is an album
that does that rare thing of maintaining street cred while appealing
to ears that only bass and beats would never reach.” Album
of month June issue 5/5 IDJ.
“
If ever there was a two-step tune to hit the dance floors with
such immense success “Don’t Smoke (Da Reefer)” became
a household hit with its bass heavy, two stepping monster of a
record with the catchiest vocal line ever. ”
Deekline, aka Nick Annand, has since well and truly earned his
reputation in the dance scene having worked with legends like Arthur
Baker, and chart successes namely “Don’t smoke (The
Reefa) – UK Number 9
Deekline is also known for shaking up the whole nu-skool scene
and twisting out the fattest of bass lines wherever he is playing
including the legendary club night Breakbeat Connection. He’s
also known to be a player when it comes down to Miami WMC ;)

The Wizard, AKA Greg Fleming, is a London born musician/producer
and engineer whose youth belies his formidable expertise.
Since working in recording studios form a very early age with the
likes of New Order the Chemical Brothers & Sex Pistols greg’s

on his creative input. Remarkably he has since put his own imprints
on projects/albums for the likes of The Rolling Stones, Damien
Marley, X-Press 2, Britney Spears, The Prodigy, Placebo, Fatboy
Slim and Usher.
And the list goes on. Wizard has worked with the forefront of artists
from the “UK Dance scene. The Wizard is surely set to influence
a wide range of genres (is anything out of this man’s grasp?!)
including the now massive UK Grime sound and the most ground breaking
of movements in house .

remarkable. Stay tuned for the sound of Deekline & Wizard!!!!!!!!!!!!!
