This track comes off a 3 track, pink coloured 12 inch. The tracks are all based on the Aaron Carl 1996 garage house track ‘Crucified’. Let me start by saying that this track isn’t going to burn down the house, it has no infectious hook, not stomping baseline, just pure, sweeping, hypnotic deepness. With its repetitive loop of the “like a river’ portion of the original, a simple soft jabbing chord and subtle baseline, it really manages to get inside your head and not let go. It’s a long track, a full side of a 33rpm 12 inch, but it keeps its relentless deepness throughout and really lets you get lost in it. All three tracks here are fantastic but for me this b side mix is the best.
Nu Frequency - Go That Deep (Charles Webster Remix)
Beautiful piece of music here as ever from Charles Webster. Featuring the vocals from the Massive Attack vocalist Shara Nelson. The 4/4 beat takes a back seat on this one and it works really well as it lets the vocals shine. A rolling brooding baseline with a spine tingling hypnotic synth. This is a hugely emotive track and gets two thumbs up from me. Its out on vinyl already and a digital release later in the month. I have just heard another Webster remix of the same track (Remix 2) and it sound pretty decent too. This one is the pick of the bunch for me though.
Howdy all. Just letting you know that the entire Laidback Niceness series has been uploaded. This series is probably the most popular out of all the genres on the site, as my webstats would lead me to believe. The mixes have been going for about 6 years now and there are 9 in total. Great for working or driving to. Normally with this series I start of quite laidback and slowly shift the pace a bit as the mix progresses. They contain plenty of soundscapes, vocals and acoustic elements with a nice solid beat resounding throughout.
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 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.
