Hey Together, I need following Track IDs please! The first and the last one (as we can hear its Somfay himself) and at 01:00:00 and 01:56:00!

From his early releases on imprints such as Traum Schallplatten, Archipel and the iconic Kompakt, Global Underground & Balance Music, to launching his own label Three Graces, his spectrum of influences is astounding, with musical contributions spanning nearly two decades. It's with great pleasure today that we welcome Canadian producer, composer, sound designer, and visual media artist, Somfay, for a very special extended mid-year guest mix - a 5 hour journey of mind-bending twists & curves, unveiling a certain ritual energy & experimental rawness that commands the listener’s immediate, unwavering attention.

For Jesse Somfay, music is high bandwidth communication. Now composing under the name Somfay and previously his pseudonym Borealis, Jesse's primary focus is translating and sharing through music, powerful emotions and experiences which cannot easily be defined.

For years, he has experienced intense synaesthesia, thus both his musical projects reflect that influence; primarily aural to visual, & visual to aural synaesthesia, plus a number of other sensory combinations, all experientially interlaced. This is the most important filter through which his inspiration passes & serves as one of the heaviest influences. A single tone with subtle texture can evoke immense inner experience.

As a producer, his focus is on discovering old, abandoned, and unkempt paths within the arts and bringing them through the flickering lenses of a parallel multiverse - in the same way that listening to an album or watching a film, while between waking and sleep, bends, corrupts and reassembles what is being experienced into something entirely new, but with a core that is somehow familiar and warm.

As a musician, melody must always be definite & strong, yet unexpected & illusory, the burning black hole at the centre of a galaxy and its gravitational lensing - while using unconventional rhythmic structures and textures, in a hypnotic manner, to deliver the emotional payload contained within.

Much of his inspiration comes from lucid dreaming, with a central desire as a creator to come close to repeating some of the dream sourced music in waking life & to inspire these experiences within others.

His impressive discography includes the timeless 2009 album, 'A Catch in the Voice', on Canadian imprint Archipel; productions on the iconic Kompakt, Global Underground, & Balance Music; plus a multitude of stunning EPs & extended compilations on his own label, Three Graces. 

Not simply a superbly talented musician, producer, sound designer and composer, Jesse has seamlessly fused his literary & visual media skills & passion throughout all of his work.

Jesse will continue to bring his work into constantly new and changing territory where emotion is consistently glowing vibrantly at its core. He believes vehemently that the unknown is where the most intensely rich beauty resides, yet undiscovered, and is well worth straying from the paths of convention to unravel.

Getting Deeper Podcast #138 by Somfay

*We have currently paused operations due to limited capacity*

Founded originally as a boutique electronic music blog in 2012 in India, now crossing borders in Berlin, Getting Deeper has organically grown and consistently delivered authentic music with genres such as deep house, deep tech, minimal, IDM, downtempo, trip-hop and techno.

Lush vibes, melodic intricacies and sublime mindstates are places we constantly strive to reach through the music we publish. We also like to encourage escapism, philosophical meanderings and sometimes indulging in the dark side of things. In simple words, we like to get deep.
