DJ Deanne
Indianapolis, IN - Talbott Street, INHouseMusic.net
http://www.djdeanne.com

Music has always been present in Deanne’s life. As a child of young parents, Deanne grew up in her hometown of Henderson, Kentucky listening to late 70’s and early 80’s rock, funk, R&B and disco artists like Queen, Aerosmith, Isaac Hayes, Earth, Wind & Fire, Rick James and Donna Summer.

In junior high, Deanne would listen to the local college radio station that was playing the freshest hip-hop, R&B, and dance music every Friday night. Unaware that it would ever play a part in her future, Deanne began developing her “DJ skills” making mix tapes of nothing more than a collection of the hottest songs recorded from the radio. “I can remember sitting in the dark, past my bedtime, with the music really low, so my mom wouldn’t hear me. I would wait for hours for a certain song to come on, try and perfectly time recording the beginning and the ending of the song so that I got every beat. I would record the next song right behind the other with no gaps, commercials or DJ voices. I would just jam to those mixtapes, but always excited to make a new one. It seems pretty lame, but I had no idea that it would later be a part of my life.”

In 1996 Deanne moved to Tampa and it was here that she got a taste of what club music was about and what she had been missing by growing up in the Midwest. She immersed herself in the music, trying to find all the tracks she was hearing in the clubs. This continual search for the newest, freshest tracks ignited a fire and unveiled a passion.

It wasn’t until she moved back to Indiana in 1999 that the pieces started falling into place. She began spinning at the only club in Bloomington with a house music format. In the spring of 2003, Deanne moved to Indianapolis and made her Indy debut spinning at the official Indy Pride Festival T-Dance. Late in 2003, Deanne landed a prime Friday night weekly mix show slot on, Miami-based, Energy Internet Radio/EnergyRadio.fm. A few T-dances and special appearances later, she earned a monthly spot in the rotating line-up at Indy’s hottest club, Talbott Street, which has hosted talents such as Paul Oakenfold, Gabriel and Dresden, Starkillers, Mike Cruz, Twisted Dee, Tracy Young and many more.

With weekend attendance numbers near 1000 at the Indy club, Deanne is no stranger to holding a large dance floor captive to her style of mixing. With influences such as Chicago house legend, Ralphi Rosario and the production powerhouse, Peter Rauhofer, Deanne’s DJ style is defined by the spirit and energy of house music. Vocal, progressive, underground and elec-tribal beats and rhythms are combined to take her listeners on a unique journey that is marked with emotion, sensuality, undeniable energy, and wonderful “dance floor drama”. “When I really started going to the clubs and hearing how music was supposed to be played, the best DJ’s took me on a musical journey -a ride. That’s what I want for my listeners, a night of music that they remember and come back for over and over again.” And they do. Ascension is one of the longest running parties in Indianapolis.

She has been invited to play at this year’s Gay Days at Disney, one of the largest LGBT festivals in the United States.

Her mixshow, FixXxation, can be heard throughout the week on G.I.R.L , Party Radio USA and We Dance As 1.

Jackola
Indianapolis, IN - sideTrack, INHouseMusic.net
http://www.jackola.net

Music has always been at the heart of Jack Shepler, aka Jackola. Growing up Jack performed in many choirs as well as learned to play piano, giving him a strong musical background. All through high school his main interest was music and was a 'bedroom DJ' aspiring for more, so he traded in his bass guitar for a pair of turntables and a mixer - he hasn't left them alone since.

In 2003 he had his first 'real' DJ gig - a benefit dance at his college that he repeated the following year. In late 2005 Jackola was offered a DJ residency at The Mark III Taproom in Muncie, Indiana, where he really honed his skills as a house DJ amongst other styles. Jack promoted indie rock shows in Muncie under the name "Rock Music Review Showcase", featuring bands like Everthus the Deadbeats, Everything, Now!, Brazil and touring bands, supporting and promoting his online music magazine. In early 2007 Jack graduated college and moved to Indianapolis where he quickly became a part of the local music scene - both electronic and indie rock.

In May 2007, Jack and some long time friends founded sideTrack Entertainment. The group started booking and promoting a weekly electronic night called PLUSH on Thursdays at Therapy Nightclub & Lounge in Indianapolis, IN. The night, which went strong for over 9 months, booked over 50 quality, up-and-coming DJs.

Jack is also one of the founding promoters for the Broad Ripple Music Festival, a yearly festival featuring hundreds of bands on 20+ stages that benefits 20+ non-profits. He also writes a monthly column, "Discopolis", for NUVO Newsweekly that covers dance and electronic music in Indianapolis.

Jackola's musical style is eclectic to say the least. You may catch him playing dance rock and electro house between bands at a concert, or spinning funky house, tech house or techno in other atmospheres. Jackola has played alongside many internationally recognized bands and DJs, including DJ Shortee, JJ Flores & Steve Smooth, Mickey Avalon, Dirt Nasty, Tommie Sunshine, Freezepop, Scotty Thomson, Adam Jay, Bryan Jones, DJ Venom, Wilhelm K, StarSteady, Slater Hogan, DJ Shiva, M Project, Everthus the Deadbeats and DJ Deanne.

DJ StarSteady
Indianapolis, IN - Let's Play House Recordings, INHouseMusic.net
http://www.djstarsteady.com

Starting with hip-hop roots, Indianapolis based DJ StarSteady has been making noise in the Midwest house scene for the past couple of years. StarSteady was originally a hip-hop dj, where at age 16 he was already doing gigs at local hip-hop clubs and block parties. After going to his first house show in Chicago and witnessing the legendary house producer Paul Johnson scorch the decks, StarSteady immediately was sucked into the house sound. Some of StarSteady's biggest influences include Bad Boy Bill, DJ Jimmy Paige, DJ Dan, and Hatiras. His sound ranges from the newer more electro funky house, to the less aggressive riding bass house.

StarSteady runs Indy-based label Let's Play House Recordings and has even done remixes for artists The Verdugo Brothers and The Breakfastaz.
