Nativo di New York, il gruppo Indeep, fondato da Michael Cleveland autore dei brani, è il classico esempio di One Shot.
Nel 1983 il brano "Last Night a D.J. Saved My Life" tratto dall'omonimo album è l'unico testimone degno di nota.
Il sound del gruppo è chiaramente intriso di riferimenti alla disco-music degli anni '70.
Il gruppo riesce comunque a pubblicare nel corso degli anni '80 una manciata di singoli tutti tratti dall'album: "When Boys Talk", "Buffalo Bill" e soprattutto "The Record Keeps Spinning", con suoni che si avvicinano sempre di più al rap.
Nel 1991 viene pubblicato un Best of contenente 23 brani tra i più significativi della loro storia.

Last night a deejay saved my life
Last night a deejay saved my life, yeah
‘Cause I was sittin’ there bored to death
And in just one breathe he said
“You got get up, you got get up, you got get down girl”
You know you drive me crazy, baby
You got me turnin’ to another man
Called you on the phone no one’s home
Baby, why you leave me all alone
And if it wasn’t for the music
I don’t know what I’d do, yeah
Last night a deejay saved my life
Last night a deejay saved my life from a broken heart
Last night a deejay saved my life
Last night a deejay saved my life with a song
You know I hopped into my car, didn’t get very far, no
Because I had you on my mind, why be so unkind
You got your women all around, all around this town
But I was trapped in love with you and I didn’t know what to do
But when I turned on my radio
I found out all I needed to know
Check it out
Last night a deejay saved my live

Last night a deejay saved my life
Last night a deejay saved my life from a broken heart
Last night a deejay saved my life
Last night a deejay saved my life with a song
Hey, listen up to your local deejay
You better hear what he’s got to say
There’s not a problem that I can’t fix
‘Cause I can do it in the mix
And if your man gives you trouble
Just move out on a double
And you don’t let it trouble your brain
‘Cause away goes trouble down the drain
Said away goes trouble down the drain
Well, alright
Dub time
