It is an honour for us to be included on the 333 Sessions Podcast.  We spent many months working on this extended mix, and the entire process was extremely rewarding.  After shortlisting a large set of records, we set out to cohesively piece together just over 3.5 hours of deep hypnotic sounds that we love so much.  The mix starts off with deep slow house, and then extends to Progressive House and Progressive Breaks. It contains a lot of records we specifically wrote for the mix, both individually, as “Mckeown & Bassiray” and  “Depth Institute” production outfits, as well as unreleased and forthcoming releases on our much beloved Zero Tolerance label. 

Many thanks to our friends who provided us with records, and those from around the world who share our mutual love and understanding of progressive sounds that sit within a dark and moody aesthetic

We hope you enjoy the ride

Bringin It Down - The Push (OUT NOW) BEATPORT EXCLUSIVE

I've had a string of very inspiring DJ sets over the last few weeks but I couldn't manage to record any of them unfortunately. Hence my idea of selecting a few current favorites and blend them as if I was playing in a club. It's impossible to translate the energy of a party into a DJ set recorded at home... but I think this mix comes pretty close!
Special thanks to Loe.Loe. (https://soundcloud.com/loe-loe) for the pic and Paul Kav (https://soundcloud.com/cousin-paul) for the extra gear.

Infotext

As we launch into the 20th instalment of our Watergate Mix series, it seems only fitting that we turn to one of our own artists to commemorate the milestone. A man already well known for his poignant and impassioned productions and DJ sets, we are thrilled to present Matthias Meyer as the next master of controls on Watergate 20! 

Over the course of 80 minutes, Meyer skillfully navigates through boundless sonic spaces of lush melodics, organic grooves and sentimental sensations with an effortless approach. From the very beginning, emotions run deep as the sound of rain and strings on Kettenkarussell's 'Ten Friends' sets the stage as YokoO & Retza's exclusive track 'Satori' and Leafar Legov's 'Tribal Girls' establish the percussive tone of the mix. The journey really begins to unfold when back to back exclusive tracks; Gorje Hewek & Izhevski's 'Turgoyakk' and Matthias' own 'Uluwatu' take over. As the mix picks up steam tracks from Palms Trax, Langenberg, Hyenah and another exclusive from Meyer himself provide the perfect momentum that drives us into the deeper side as the mix takes a turn towards the final stretch. The alluring sounds of Marco Resmann's 'Fluid Of Life' and Innervisions' Orchestral mix of Underworld's 'Crocodile' set the stage for a stunning farewell as Patlac's remix of Matthias' 'Ostinato' and Traumprinz' twist on Efdemin's 'Parallaxis' bid us adieu in a manner reminiscent of a 'Northern Exposure' mix from masters like Sasha and Digweed. 

From start to finish, Meyer displays his sound and range with a masters touch, demonstrating exactly the reason for his highly in demand status.
