The Deep Series imprint returns this September with its sixth release, a split EP coming from Nekes & George P., including Sascha Dive & Skipson remixes.
The Deep Series imprint was launched in 2010 by George P. and Kaitow out of Berlin, Germany, and has since unveiled material from the likes of Ekkohaus, Santos Reisak and Housewax’s Kammerton. Here the label offers up a split release from label co-founder George P. and Oslo’s Nekes, the pair have known each other for over twenty-five years now, so the aptly named ‘Family’ EP has been a long time coming.
Opening the release is the original mix of ‘Rain’, a mood-driven, percussive led composition employing hypnotic atmospherics and processed vocal snippets to form texture, while the organic drums sounds intricately evolve and unfold over the tracks six and half a minutes to create a raw and understated cut. Following we see Sascha Dive step up to remix ‘Rain’ with his ‘Northern Lights Remix’, as always from Dive we’re treated to sheer quality as he remoulds the original number into a dynamic, ever-blossoming record led by bumpy rhythms, resonant synth sweeps and a general dubbed-out, psychedelic feel.
On the flip side Nekes offers up ‘On The Road’, the German producer opts for ethereal, analogue pads here, while the sparse, yet punchy percussive elements smoothly carry the groove to keep you locked in for the duration. Then the package is rounded off with Skipson’s ‘Inspectah Nek’ take on ‘On The Road’, taking his typically raw production approach Skipson shapes the cut up with dusty drum sounds, gritty samples and subtle extractions from the original track, closing the package on a classy tip.
Nekes & George P.’s ‘Family’ EP is out on Deep Series 22nd September 2014.
