>>>>>QUOTE TAKE FROM THIS WEEKS LA WEEKLY

DJ Deep, Scott K at Betty Ford at Ultra Suede. 
"Today, the spirit of house has been ruined," says French four-to-the-floor 
connoisseur DJ Deep. "Everybody thinks he’s a DJ. There are DJs in Coca-Cola 
adverts. That’s ridiculous, and it’s bad for the movement." Thing is, every 
time a jock opens his mouth, it just sounds plain stupid. Of course everyone 
thinks he’s a DJ — ‘cause it’s mighty easy to be one. In all fairness, 
though, not as good a one as Deep, the man behind the absolutely divine 
Respect Is Burning compilation series. Last year, Deep dropped Respect to DJ 
Deep, featuring a nude ‘n’ sweaty canvas of jazzy house, soulful garage and 
Afro-funk, thus putting fellow French funkster Dimitri of Paris on notice. DJ 
Deep, like Dimitri, has high respect for disco-soul, leaning more toward a 
brutal dance-floor workout (hollerin’ divas in tow) than the 
midtempo-funk-brushed instrumental shit so popular among rhythm-challenged 
urban folk nowadays. Deep will be helped out by local spinster Scott K. of 
More. Probably a good idea to bring an extra T-shirt. 661 N. Robertson Blvd., 
W. Hlywd. (310) 659-4551. (Derrick Mathis)
