The Deja Vue story...expanded....

"It started in 1988 when I teamed up with the Mix Kid (we were also know as the Parana Brothers for a while - Doug & Dinsdale), we used to do mixing using nothing more sophisticated than a twin tape deck. We would play a snippet from one tape to the other and then another from a different bit of music. This would go on until the mix was completed, the process being known as 'bouncing'
Then in 1998 came Sounds From The South. This started as a solo project, after moving back home. Later a friend moved in and we were going to start up together but we ever actually recorded anything together...all that remains is an album that I recorded on my own and another tape of remixes that I did myself.
After this nothing musical happened in my life for a number of years until in 2006 by Deja Vue, my third project. This started off by me doing cover songs. In fact I produced six albums worth. As these were never released, they have all been deleted. I then went onto think about some of my other favourite influences like The Art of Noise, Kraftwerk and Jean Michel Jarre, and decided I wanted to move more into the field of playing electro music. The result of this was the album Retro-Electro. A combination of eight styles of electro music including dance, techno, DnB and disco. I finished the album in early August 2007. Around this time I had met up with my old friend The Mix Kid, and although we had remained friends throughout the years, had not colaborated since the early days. After playing a demo of the CD and talking for a while he agreed to join the band. The Mix Kid (DJ Ears, Steve) composes / produces and will be doingthe groove and drum box programming for the band.
I still do the remixing as DJ GK and I do my own production work under the name of LHP (Long Hall Productions).
Are next step is to get some more tracks ready for a second album and to get managed/promoted and signed to a label" -- Gaz (DJ GK)

Deja Vue is currently UNSIGNED and looking for a deal and promotion

Sneek Peek Video

I have uploaded a sneek peek video of DJ GK (Gaz) in the process of creating a new minimix of The Who. Quality is not brilliant as this was taking using a mobile phone cam but shows some of the processes that take place using Adobe Audition.
