Second mix in the monthly Digging Deep series. This is a bit of a weird one and goes in a few directions. Starts of with the signature Digging Deep sound, warm, mellow and soft. It then slowly goes into a darker, spacier place, then out into Tech House territory. Now, after that I don’t know what happened. I went on a bit of a stroll down memory lane and it finishes with a few classic. I hadn’t planned this at all but it seemed right at the time. If the Brian Eno track doesn’t give the dirty raver in you goose bumps, then it was probably never in you to begin with :P

Also, a slight break in the middle as the laptops decided to shut down mid mix. I got it back up and running straight away so it only missed a small section.

100% vinyl again, old and new, with some of the usual analogy slip ups here and there, but hey, that keeps in sounding a bit more real eh? Hope you enjoy it’s meanderings.

I have started off a new monthly series of Podcasts. Indulging in my vinyl addiction I will be playing/mixing alot of the slow and low deep house tracks doing the rounds. First mix is ready for download. Lots of off centre tracks. Kinda mellow and a bit off the danceable path. 100% vinyl. I would love to hear your feedback on this new direction I’m taking. I’m also thinking of doing a bit of talking over it, kinda like a radio podcast introducing tracks etc. So let me know if you think thats a good idea.

Deep house to deep dark Tech House mix here with a bit of progressive thrown in for good measure. Starts of nice and light and ends on a very dark weird twisted vibe. The type of music I’d like to hear in a dark club at 4am. And the type of music robots might make :-)

A new Deep Tech House mix for the summer. This one starts off on a light deep organic type of style, then slowly drifts in and out of the darker techier style of house. A nice collection of tracks that I’ve been enjoying recently.

The latest in the Sunday Snooze series. This one is quit an acoustic trip. Lots of nice vocal tracks, some happy, some very, very sad. But all in all a nice journey. The person speaking in the beginning is non other that Damien Rice, a great Irish artist who has feature on most of the mixes in this series, talking about how he gets inspired. Words to live by. Enjoy.

We have all had one of these mornings. One of those mornings where you just want to stay asleep for month and human contact is the last thing you want. Well this mix was done on one of these rare days… Hense the amount of gushy moody tracks in the mix. Sorry for the bits of cheese in it but it really was one of those ‘ordinary mornings’.

The third in the Sunday Snooze series. Going back to the original format compared to the weird and wonderful ambient Sunday Snooze II. This version is an exploration in great vocal acoustic songs. Lots of happy moments, simple lyrics with a strong message. Good to have in the background on a long Sunday drive in the country.

The second in the Sunday Snooze series. This is quite a different route to the other Sunday Snooze mixes. It is very ambient, lots of soundscapes, sweeps and weird noises. But, it still manages to retain that relaxed spaced out vibe. I originally made it in 1999 but made a redux in 2002. It was made for those ‘chemical’ mornings where you want the daylight to go away so you can re-live the previous night. You can’t sleep, but you can fall into that state of paralysis between reality and god knows where…. Hence the name ‘chemical snooze’
