Deep Swing Feat. A7 - He's Got The Love

Biography:


Eric Wikman is the owner of Generate Music and Deepswing Productions.. Deepswing is his most well known production name for dance music productions and international DJing. His music style is a mixture of Soulful, Jazzy, Gospel & Disco House which is also known as the disco of today.


Based on the west coast of the United States, in the heart of Hollywood, Los Angeles is home to this label, production studio and Global Groove music publishing company. Deepswing was started in 1995, in Los Angeles, when Eric and then originating partner, James Donaldson put out the first Deepswing release on Kult Records out of NYC. (In 2003 JD moved on to start Big D Records and his own music production company).


The name of Deepswing began after Eric wrote a review in a local LA scene magazine for a song produced by Grant Nelson describing the feeling that was so deep with an infectious swing to it.


The music that influenced this production company included sounds from the original House music producers in Chicago (Hot Mix 5) & New York, along with current ones like Soulfuric, Joey Negro, Steve Silk, Mousse T, Grant Nelson, DJ Disciple, Sandy Rivera, Knee Deep, Masters at Work, Blaze, Basement Boys, Grant Nelson to name just a few of them. Of course the sounds of disco, funk, gospel, R&B and every type of music listened to while growing up had a major impact on how songs and music were written. With this background, all the productions project feelings with a positive and uplifting message.


In the past, Eric Wikman has produced under alias names such as Jazz Transit for Soulfuric Recordings, Sunkids for Yellorange Records, Dept. of Soul for Roger Sanchez / Narcotic Records and released tracks for labels like Urban Motion Project, Soulshine Recordings, Kult Records, Global Groove for Champion Records-UK along with many others.


The years of hard work started to pay off at the 1999 Winter Music Conference under the name of Sunkids, with the song Rescue Me featuring Chance and her powerful voice which sounds like Aretha Franklin. This song was released on legendary Tony Humphries label Yellorange and was remixed by the hit producer Little Louie Vega and Masters at Work. Tony & Little Louie introduced Rescue Me at the famous Magic Sessions in Miami and it was talked about being the hit of the conference. The very next year 2000 Winter Music Conference Yellorange released the follow up song featuring Chance with Rise Up along with remixes by Teddy Douglas - Basement Boys (Crystal Waters fame) & Cricco Castelli. Once again, another hit track! Rise Up went on to become a favorite all over the world and placed a spot in Paramount Pictures major motion picture Sum of all Fears starring Ben Affleck & Morgan Freeman.


Eric also owns Generate Music, the record label that started in June 2000. After releasing numerous tracks through other record labels, building a reputation and realizing that the majority of the successful producers ran their own companies, it was time to start a boutique label and thus Generate Music was born.
