ESPAÑOL: BALL OF FYAH-THE DEEP EST .. nace a Modica, en Sicilia en 1977. A los 11 años empieza a escuchar la musica que el hermano trae a casa: primera house from Chicago y primera techno from Detroit. Vynilos de artistas como Frankie Knuckles o Kevin Saunderson empiezan a pasar entre sus manos. A los 13 ya está intentando mezclar dos canciones en el equipo del hermano. A mediados de los años 90 se muda a ROMA. La metropoli empieza a llenarle el cerebro de sonidos muy distintos. Asiste a conciertos de grupos rock emergentes como Mogway, descubre el post-rock, acude a las fiestas de reggae y dub organizadas en la capital, frecuenta locales como el Brancaleone, en cuya programación no falta una noche de reggae, una de drum'n'bass y una de techno por semana, no se pierde la noche de La Palma dedicada a sonoridades como la de To Rococo Rot o Tarwater, conoce el mundo romano de los rave de hard techno y techno trance. Entre los conciertos/live sets/dj sets que más lo sorprenden está: Jah Shaka, King Shiloh, Aba Shanty, Jeff Mills, Carl Craig, Aphex Twin, Amon Tobin. Las numerosas tiendas de musica de la ciudad vienen sistematicamente saqueadas: Remix, Disfunzioni Musicali, One Love, Rinascita, Goodfellas.... Frecuenta un curso para crear música electrónica con el software Reason. Vuelve a Sicilia y empieza a crear su música con el alias Deeper, organiza fiestas con el amigo Frako-Avant rec, y pincha en unos cuantos lugares/eventos. De hace 5 años vive en España, en SEVILLA y pincha por salas de la ciudad, aunque quizá aquí esté más activo como dj de reggae con su alias de BALL OF FYAH. Actualmente, los viernes, es el dj resident de la Sala Museo en las fiestas reggae CATCH A FIRE que cuenta con la participación de artistas nacionales e internacionales. Sus sets en Catch a fire incluyen reggae, dancehall, dub, dubstep, jungle, drum'n bass. Aquí en soundcloud podéis escuchar también sus sesiones de dubtechno y techno.
