Shystie, Deekline, Assault

Please tell me about:

Shystie
DJ Deekline
DJ Assault

The DJ Deekline mix of Shystie's "New Style" is my track of the year so far, though I gather that earlier versions of the track have been kicking around for a while. Shystie got drowned out on a mediocre track back on the Run The Road compilation, and that was all I knew about her, but now I want to know everything. I gather that Deekline has been getting attention since the early '90s, and I ran across the excellent Stanton Warriors Mix of "Handz Up" recently. (Sorry U.K. residents, those are both YouTube links, though if they don't work, you can try this imeem for "Handz Up," and the Shystie video which is YouTube but from a non-"premium" user.)

My knowledge of DJ Assault is confined entirely to what's on these two links, and the four tracks or so I've heard of his:

Detroit "ghettotech" guy, most of his stuff released second half of '90s, first half of '00s.
