For Getting Deeper's 70th podcast, Kai Hillman has given us a beautiful and clean deep tech set perfect for long drives. 

What you will find is deep, repetitive music laced with swirling, spacious melodies arising from a post-techno style. Which means that the set embodies softer, deeper sounds that contemporary techno carries, as opposed to old school, raw techno that is more fast paced with harder edges. 

It is that repetitive character in the set's functionality that makes it so timeless. Subtle transitions and hypnotic melodies make it an absolute must for any kind of journey. It's slow and steady with grandiose stretches, just like a long therapeutic drive in a big but empty city late during the night. The set captures that feeling of being comfortably lost and provides an accurate snapshot of the drive that quite often accompanies that feeling. 

It wouldn't have been possible without a good hand that knows how to work with the technicalities of mixing sets. Kai has, indeed, made a set that is mixed in such a way that it never loses its balance. The result is not many tracks, but one deep and timeless sound... swirling around its own axis, and gently taking you into the cosmic world of deep, lush techno. 

And that gives the set a clear musical identity.We love it.

Thank you Kai for such a heartwarming effort!

==========================
"Dear Baikal Nomads,
I am glad to finally deliver your podcast 🙂 Thank you for your patience !
I’m really happy with the result, it is a very special podcast for me, probably because while making it I ended up finding a lot of what I call  super match, those rare and magical combinations of tracks that fit perfectly together from the beginning to the end, and also because I had to dig in many different places to find the right ones, originals, tracks I edited, tracks I encoded from my vinyl collection, a Soulwax track from a cassette, old stuff and new promos…  all this mix that create those special vibes and already makes of this podcast one of my favourites.
I hope you like it and that the listeners will too 🙂
Much love from the Brazilian’s forest

Mixtape #239 by Xique-Xique

A journey through the shifting sands, where deep rhythms and ancient melodies awaken both joy and longing. Raw percussion and flowing soundscapes create a space for reflection and hope. The desert breathes through the music, carrying you through light, shadow, and the depths of emotion.

Session #103 - Rimaal [ZO.]

OMNI-030 DJ LEONT (DEEP CONNECTION)

Created during a tranquil vacation in the stunning village of Masca on Tenerife, this downtempo track captures the awe-inspiring serenity of gazing out at the ocean, framed by towering cliffs on either side. With its slow, immersive beats and lush electronic textures, the song embodies the meditative calmness of the moment. Layered with delicate field recordings of local birds perched on the cliffs, this track weaves nature’s voice into its rhythm, bringing to life the peaceful yet powerful atmosphere of this breathtaking landscape.

Another one from my favorite party of NY. The closing of Season 6 with over 600 guests, for another memorable day into night. 

This is my 2 hour set playing at sunset, building up for Theo Meier. I was feeling particularly bouncy that day, which I believe is reflected in the music :) Hope you enjoy! 

Thanks again Jon and Alaya for putting together such a beautiful space for us all <3

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.
