Jeremy Underground is a French DJ and record collector from a Paris suburb. He develops a reputation for deep house, with a particular focus on the New York and New Jersey house sound, and he is known for working as a DJ rather than as a producer.

Background and musical interests

Born in 1986, Jeremy Underground falls in love with deep house in 1997 after hearing it on Radio Nova in Paris. He spends his teenage years searching record shops for hidden house records, and later extends his collecting to jazz, soul and funk. His approach is shaped by a strong interest in rare and out-of-print music, alongside detailed knowledge of deep house.

My Love Is Underground

In 2010, he starts My Love Is Underground, a vinyl-only label dedicated to what he sees as the authentic New York/New Jersey house sound. The label is intended to revive the warm feel of that era and to present its spirit through releases and parties. It builds a reputation through label events that attract dance music fans in different cities.

The label issues a debut compilation in 2014, the three-LP My Love Is Underground, which features Jeremy Underground’s selection of rare and long out-of-print house tracks. The compilation is ranked by Resident Advisor as the number one compilation of the year and receives praise from DJs and collectors for the breadth and raw quality of its selection.

Jeremy Underground tours internationally as a DJ, carrying a large record collection and presenting sets centred on underground house music. He is regarded as a selector with a distinctive musical identity, and his sets are associated with a strong focus on deep house and classic house sounds.
