DeepWit Essentials Week 12

I’m going to come right out and say I would love to offer a valid excuse for not having kept up with the blog chart. Honestly though, I don’t have one. Yes we have been busy with building a new website, where this blog will call home along all of our other awesome stuff. Yes, it is warming up, which means more time preparing the vegetable garden for planting and getting new fruit bushes in the ground. Yes, we did decide to start on a ridiculously huge release schedule for the year, with something like a release every week. Oh and have I mentioned I’ve taken up knitting? Ok I feel much better about having dropped off from the DeepWit Essentials posts in the last three months but I plan on making them a bi-weekly habit again, alongside writing more advice posts, how-to’s and Q & A’s. Maybe slide in a few guest posts and charts if I can manage to get anyone interested! And with no further chit chat let me start off on this weeks essential tunes.

This one is a bit older, from last month. Which lets be honest, with quality music there isn’t an expiration date. Thanks Stratospherik for always putting out quality music, we are big fans of the Stratoliner sound.

Up next, another one from last month we missed out on. This one comes from Ready Mix Records and Addex plus remixers. We are really partial to the Original and Forteba Remix.

 

---

 

And now for some more recent stuff, including this great remix on Lagaffee Tales. The entire release is lovely but the Lay-Far remix really hits the spot.

 

---

 

This one from the Allovers on Pole Position Records is exactly what we like in a Dub.

 

---

 

As a general rule, you can count on DeepClass Records to come up with some lovely deep stuff and this EP from Hraach is no exception.

---

 

Here is the latest from Adaptation Music with Yan Gordo is an all around charmer, especially the Yohan Esprada Remix.

 

---

 

Now for some floor moving sounds from Tim Andresen on his own label What Happens.

---

 

And it wouldn’t be fitting to make an entire chart without adding in our latest release with Venntaur, which has been blowing up across the globe, getting massive airplay and support due to how very awesome it is. Just Listen.

---

 

To finish off the digital side and bordering on the vinyl we have this remix from Kalabrese of “Signs” from the Howling. Something that should be in all our collections.

---

 

This Vinyl releases on Big Bait Records with Odysea, Georgi Barrel, Joseph Tacker and Hendrik Vogel is available now.

---

 

And the last of our chart this week is another Vinyl but in it’s pre-order stage from Muzik & Friendz and we love the Pablo Bolivar remix of Frederick Alonso & Pat Lezizmo‘s track “Tablao”.

 

See I told you, I’ve been busy.

DeepWit Essentials // Weeks 38 & 39

The weather here has started changing and as it happens every year it goes from warm to cold way to fast for my tastes. Even the trees get little time to adjust with the most common thing being the dropping of leaves before even half have a tint of colour on them. With the cold comes the desire to spend more time under the blankets, fireplace going and nothing but a good book and some excellent music in the background. Of course there are other times were we still need a bit of happy House sounds to keep a smile on our faces and some lovely Deep House for the evenings while making dinner and catching up on the days chores. Every type of music has a mood that helps it fit into those certain places in our lives and we hope some of these tracks find a place in yours.

 

I want to start off with this outstanding mellow Album from our Mastering Engineer here at DeepWit, Nikosf. You can grab this beautiful release on vinyl and digitally if thats the route you prefer.

After all the chilled out moods we move onto a release from Chillin Music, with their “10 Years of Chillin Music” compilation. Some really outstanding tracks here that go beyond the genre the name implies.

And from one VA to another, this one comes from Haute Musique. With some lush deep vibes from producers  BiG Al, Adam Byrd, Jero Nougues, Kiano & Below Bangkok, Moe Turk, Anthony Mea and Tamandua Twist you can’t go wrong getting your hands on this.

Speaking of BiG Al, he has a killer remix out on Soul Deeparture Records of Phasen and Refurbs track “Comfortable”.

If you are looking for something deep and mellow, look no farther than Jero Nougues new EP on the brand new label Limitation Music.

And if you are needing something deep and for the dance floor, I can’t think of a better track than Miss Disk‘s remix of Fabien Kamb‘s track “Free” on Ready Mix Records. A head down groove I can’t get enough of.

Of course, it wouldn’t be a DeepWit chart without some DeepClass Records love, this new one from Jarquin & Cano is well, deep class all the way through 🙂

Now, I have to admit there really is nothing like some happy sounding synths to put a smile on my face and this very Happy House track from Bordland on Dimentique is perfect for just that.

Speaking of happy, feel good House music, it would be a shame to miss out on this great track from Other2Sides on Muskox Records.

And to finish us off for the week is this remix from Edu Imbernon on Fayer Records of Qtier is just… well it leaves me speechless. I love this track and I dare you to listen to it and not feel the same.

DeepWit Essentials // Weeks 34 – 37

I am not exactly a morning person. Maybe you are, maybe you aren’t. I can promise though, that as a non-morning person, one of the best ways for me to start off the day the right way is of course with a cup of coffee and some perfectly laid back music. As the day progresses maybe I need something a bit more uplifting and eventually work my way into the mood for some proper Deep House and House sounds.

This to me, is what would qualify is a perfectly musical day. A big thanks to all the labels and artists that didn’t disappoint with your lovely vibes 🙂

Let’s start out with a new remix of an old track from Kollektiv Turmestrasse, musical art with an awesome video. Big respect to Dynamic for pretty much being awesome.

Moving right along to not just one but two albums from Cold Busted. The first one are some instrumentals off a Hip Hop album which I can’t get enough of. A class full of groove and if you enjoy them I recommend checking out the Original Album, even if your not “into” that sort of stuff.

And this second album from afore said label comes from a kid, ya a kid, way too talented for his young years. I really look forward to keeping an eye on this YellowJacket fellow to see what other creatively original sounds he puts out in the future.

Now, I generally shop on iTunes but when given the chance I will always, ALWAYS pick Bandcamp. And since you are there anyways buying the last two albums, you can go ahead and pick up this compilation from Peng, just in case you were missing some of these classy tunes.

Which is the perfect segue into the new EP from Kiano & Below Bangkok on Ready Mix Records.

Now safely in the world of Deep House, I have to say I am really enjoying this EP from Deephope on Deep Clicks.

And if you need something a bit more lush, Deported Music delivers with these two great tracks from our friends Soulight.

Then there is the new EP from Loz Goddard on Large Music. A big congratulations to him on this killer release.

Now this last track here from Ezlv on Save Room Records is really up my ally, deep and housey (is housey a word?) and perfect with a glass of wine and good conversation. Perfect way to end a day eh?
