I've been meaning to look back at this mix for some time, ever since I mixed and earlier version live on radio, so here it is, 26 track's selected from the iconic 'Shelflife' series. 

This was not an easy mix to compile, with over 100 tracks to choose from it took me a bit of time to finally come up with the final track selection (room to do a PT2). So I hope you enjoy the mix and that I have given this phenomenal producer and series the love and respect it deserves. 

Please feel free to repost and share, as always it would be much appreciated.

Enjoy the mix :-)

The King is watching

DEEPNAS Various Artists Vol. 1 is a full-scale portrait of the label. We built this compilation as a living panorama of what DEEPNAS is breathing right now: deep dnb with its cinematic pull and weight, spring-loaded jump up that switches the body on before the mind, melodic liquid funk for moments when you want light without naivety, and neurodeep as the darker, emotionally charged line within our catalog.

Here, the genres don’t compete for space in the frame — they form a single, coherent story. Like walking one long night route: first air and depth, then acceleration, then warmth and memory, and once again a dense, focused stretch where every detail speaks not for form’s sake, but for feeling. This collection is about different states of the same scene and the same language — the language of bass, atmosphere, and honest emotion.

Vol. 1 is our way of showing scale without unnecessary noise or over-explaining. If you’ve been with us for a while, you’ll recognize the DEEPNAS character within the first minutes. If you’re just stepping in, this is the best entry point: one release that opens several doors at once. Press play and choose your shade of depth, your speed, and your state of mind.
