As one of the United Kingdom's shining stars in the house music scene for the last few years, Deeper Purpose is set to play The Ruins at Knockdown Center on September 27th, 2024. His recent appearances include Forever Midnight in Las Vegas, Groove Cruise, Club Space, Club Vinyl, Imagine Music Festival, and Sundown Festival, showcasing his widespread appeal and versatility as a DJ. His musical output remains strong, with recent releases on esteemed labels such as Defected Records, Fisher's Catch N' Release Records, Spinnin' Records, and Repopulate Mars, highlighting his creative prowess and the industry's recognition of his talent.

In addition to his busy performance schedule, Deeper Purpose has made significant strides in the studio. His ability to blend tech house with catchy vocal hooks and memorable melodies has led to tracks that have caught the attention and praise of industry stalwarts like Jamie Jones, Lee Foss, Detlef, Richy Ahmed, and Groove Armada.

Deeper Purpose's journey from aspiring DJ in Croydon, South London, to an internationally celebrated artist is a story of passion, dedication, and the transformative power of music. To get more information on his background, check out a spotlight we did with him 

The last time we hosted Deeper Purpose, it was for a special double-header in the Room of Superior Ingredients, where he played alongside fellow UK artist Joshwa. Now it’s time to bring him to the Ruins. The Ruins, part of the Knockdown Center in Queens, New York, embodies a renaissance of large-scale clubbing intertwined with a flourishing underground scene. This 50,000-square-foot venue has transformed from its industrial origins to an avant-garde cultural destination, renowned for hosting legendary acts across the electronic music spectrum.

Check out his exclusive OCHO mix with us down below. 

Deeper Purpose started releasing music in 2017 and has produced hit after hit ever since. In 2020 he released “Elevate”, which has now accumulated almost 5 million streams and in 2021, he was awarded Beatport’s longest-running Beatport Tech House #1 of the year with his remix of Piero Pirupa's "Everybody's Free (To Feel Good)".
