a little bit of Dean Coleman.. (taken from www.residentadvisor.net)
Dean Coleman started his illustrious career in the mid ‘90s. Armed with his creativity and a strong passion for music, he began to do mobile parties while in college at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. He was quickly thrust into the local NC club scene and eventually progressed to regional parties. In 1997, Dean made the move to Atlanta and immediately made an impact with his first attempt at production - a bootleg of Pete Heller's anthem "Big Love." With a couple of solid years under his belt to fine tune his sound and style, Dean struck gold in 2002 with a bootleg of Narcotic Thrust’s “Safe From Harm,” which was subsequently signed by Deep Dish to their Yoshitoshi imprint. The remixes found their way to #1 on the Billboard chart and Dean was well on his way to being a favorite of the label. In 2004 alone, Dean Coleman has been on four Yoshitoshi releases and there are more to come. Within the last few years, Dean has already created a discography that many in the industry have taken a lifetime to produce. He has produced/remixed for Deep Dish, Erick Morillo, Harry Choo-Choo Romero, Roger Sanchez, Hernan Cattaneo, Josh Wink, Eddie Amador, Julie McKnight, and Felix Da Housecat. With countless original production, edits, and remixes to his credit, Dean always has something fresh in his record box.
One of Dean’s latest accomplishments was in the genre of commercial music score. He produced an original score for a new international TV commercial for PIONEER featuring their revolutionary DVJ-X1 Player. Along with his production credit for the commercial, Dean was cast as the starring actor, further increasing his international exposure. "I've had the pleasure of working with Pioneer since 1995, and they always strive to make the best product and use most innovative technology," states Dean on the collaboration.
The summer of 2005 is going to be his busiest ever as Dean’s annual residency with Roger Sanchez at Pacha in Ibiza, continues to grow into a popular international event. Dean also recently added a second Ibiza residency featuring Deep Dish and Yoshitoshi, which will surely become an annual event to remember. Some of the other International Summer Tour hot spots include: Tunisia; Budapest; Portugal; Washington DC; Montreal; and many more. Whether combining ever-futuristic technology, or just rocking the mixer, Dean’s DJ sets are not to be missed. Bringing 10 years of experience to the decks, as well as, a flare for on-the-fly remixes, Dean always lights up the room. "One of my favorite gigs was playing for Deep Dish's GU Release Party at Cielo in NYC, however, I always feel at home behind the tables whatever city I'm in. When I DJ I want people to feel like they are a part of what I'm doing and not that I'm there to play to them. I completely vibe off my crowd and the closer I am to them the better!" says Dean.
On May 31st, Yoshitoshi will release their first ever hits compilation entitled “House of Yoshi - The Collection” m¬¬ixed by Dean Coleman. Alongside the launch of the album will be a massive press and music tour for Yoshitoshi and Deep Dish, which are being fully sponsored by Pioneer, as they simultaneously launch their new DJM1000 DJ mixer. As well as¬¬ doing several DVJ sets in the US, Dean will tour worldwide to promote the new Yoshitoshi CD and the new Pioneer gear. This summer, without a doubt, will be a major move forward for the Deep Dish protégé as both Sharam and Ali of Deep Dish have handpicked Dean to tour with them on some of their biggest US and International Tour dates.
Also this year, look out for new original tracks and remixes including: "Remember" by Dean Coleman featuring Melanie Denard, on SR2 label; “Over and Under” by Dean Coleman, on Heavy Rotation; “The EP” by Dean Coleman (aka Dirty By Design) featuring Back to Deep, on Stealth Records; “Livin’ By Atlanta” by Dean Coleman, on Jamayka Records; and a fresh remix for the new Roger Sanchez album entitled "Lost." Along with these hot tracks, Dean completed a side project producing an original film score for “Glass Beads,” a short film showing at the 2005 Cannes Film Festival written by Angeles Woo, and Executive Produced by John Woo.
Dean will continue his dedicated relationship with NARAS and the AUDIO ENGINEERING SOCIETY as well as his long-standing relationship with keyboard legend ROLAND. Look for Dean this fall in Paris, Budapest, Morocco, Tunisia, Dubai, Los Angeles, and DC as he continues his partnership with powerhouse booking agency BULLITT, Deep Dish's DJ Agency.
