Part 2 of 2. Live on the decks at Lake Don Pedro boat party. Morning set very eclectic...many personal faves for the folks still standing at 7am. If you missed it, now it's yours to put it in your car and drive real far. Complete with Frank Zappa's "Dirty Love":)
Enjoy.

Release #2 from Tropical 27-Year is on Oct. 9, 2025, the actual anniversary date of the event!

Recorded live 7pm-9pm Sunday September 28, 2025 on a beautiful night under a bouquet of stars in the high desert of Southern California...

...is Tropical resident / founder Ben Annand's 2-hour Sunday night set which bridges the musical space between Evan Hatfield's live ethnic techno, and DJ Dazy's deep house closing set...

This set has two different feels in its 2 halves, starting with a dreamy and lightly progressive minimal house vibe, and switching into deep house about halfway through.  

It was followed by an hour of Dazy and Ben switching off every 3 tracks, and then Dazy's 2 hour closing set, posted previously.

Enjoy!

Note:  Tropical 28-Year Hot Tub Oasis Retreat will take place Sept 18-21, 2026 and will be a completely private event.  If you are interested in attending, please complete the form:

This DJ mix is an absolute masterclass in everything I love about A Deeper Groove.

You can hear the full weight of their 30-plus years in dance culture woven into every transition, deep electronic textures melting effortlessly into warm, soulful grooves. 

That Scotland-born, Berlin-shaped sensibility shines through loud and clear, capturing the spirit of those formative nights at places like Panorama Bar, Berghain, and all the underground corners that helped refine their sound.

What blows me away most is how naturally they move across genres, just like they always have. Hip hop foundations, acid house edges, Detroit pulse, Chicago swing, soulful uplifts, none of that single-genre nonsense. 

If it sounds good, they play it, and this mix is living proof. It feels like being transported back to 1989, wide-eyed and 17 again, discovering all the music that changes you for life.

A Deeper Groove and Passenger, It feels like a perfect fit, their depth, their musical honesty, their history, and their visionaire values aligning with everything that Passenger represents, it just makes this mix feel even more special.

You can catch them at Passenger presents {BODY LANGUAGE} at El Santo on 27th December with DJ Q.
