DEEE-LITE

From New York City. Led by Lady Miss Kier Kirby (vocals) with Super DJ Dmitry Brill (sampling/turntables) and Jungle DJ Towa Tei (sampling/turntables). A club based phenomenon aided by M-TV with only small amounts of alternative airplay unfortunately. Mining a combination of techno and psychedelia mixed with old school disco created a new danceable sound that was at once recognizably urban yet international new in feel and style. Deee-lite was one of only a few alternative acts that successfully combined the feel of New York City within the music (ie.; The Beastie Boys, Luscious Jackson). When Kier's relationship fizzled with Brill, so did the group. Towa Tei has gone on to a strong solo career. Kirby relocated to London to learn to dj herself for clubs and has since moved back to the United States and is preparing her comeback. 1990-96.
