Rowick Stevens “AKA” Rowick Deep’s passion for music started at an early age, he was influenced by music with visits to his late uncle during school holidays, Dominique Marian. Whom was a former dj and manager of a popular club that was based in Morula Sun Mabopane. Rowick had an opportunity to learn how to DJ by playing around with his uncle’s equipment. He developed a love for house music by listening to his uncle’s disco and dance records. Rowick got to play for the public the first time at a year-end function that was organized for Morula Sun staff members. After hearing Rowick play, people started asking him to play at many of the major events held at Morula Sun and most of the surrounding areas like Mabopane/ Ga-Rankuwa to name a few.
At one of these events Rowick met and became friends with one of the big named dj’s of the area “Positive K”, which showed him the final touches of how to perfect his dj’ing skills.
A few years later Rowick got the opportunity to get involved in mixing and compiling two major house music projects called, 45 BPM by the Heavy D Krew (Rowick,Vernon and Dominique) and then House vs. Latino with fellow DJ friend - Vernon. 45 BPM became one of the biggest selling dance compilations and from there Rowick went on to hold a residency at one of Pretoria’s hottest nightclubs, Voodoo Lounge with fellow friends Sisco, DJ Bubbles and BlackCoffee.
A few years later Rowick took a break from the industry for more than 5 years, where he ventured into other business, but music however was always his number one passion. After meeting up with his long time friend, Sisco (owner of Multi-Racial Records) who gave him the opportunity to attend the first South African Music Conference that was held in Johannesburg 2005. After attending the conference, Rowick decided to give up a fruitful business and go back to the music industry. He joined Multi-Racial Records to follow his dream to become a house music producer, but because of his DJ experience, he started as a lecturer at the DJ school department.
