Marc Carey (or Mr. C as most people know him) is the founder and creator of Deal Radio (DR). As a lifelong media man, Mr C has worked in all areas of broadcast and performance – from DJ’ing in backstreet pubs through to producing West End Theatre shows, from presenting on Hospital Radio through to show creation on International Multimedia platforms!

"I’ve often thought about doing a radio show like this ever since seeing the Clint Eastwood movie ‘Play Misty For Me’. I’m inspired by the Japanese Jazz Kissaten (Jazz Cafe) culture and Detective Harry Bosch’s consummate music taste, and want to play great jazz music that’s welcoming to new listeners who may not know know much about the genre but are curious to try some"

Irvin Cee has started his second DJ career 100% digital and plays more than ever before on his musical feeling. He practices "Controllerism", by using controllers he makes computers do exactly what and when he wants them to do in order to uplift the musical experience to new heights. No precompiled or edited sets, but music from the depths of his soul. Track choice, order and structure are more important than genres so Irvin plays a broad spectrum of Deep House, House, Tech House, Techno and Hard Techno.

Gary grew up north of Watford in a town called Sheffield. He has always loved music, especially in the heady days of punk, new wave and The Sheffield Sound.

Since Slade released Mama Weer All Crazee Now in 1972, I have always been drawn towards the “rockier” genres of music. My teenage years were spent listening to Alan “Fluff” Freeman on the radio, which broadened my taste and also gave me an awareness and appreciation of classical music, due to his use of it in show jingles. I’d also like to think that he’s had an effect on the way I present Headz Up.

Born in Bradford (a long time ago), Lee wanted to be playing music for as long as he can remember.
