Geary, whose work explores the potential of listening to alter perception and improve wellbeing. We invite you into Eight Fold Way's deep dream.

꿈 Kkum 44 - Eight Fold Way (Live DJ at Springkell 2022)

"Gliding between dub and downtempo, this mix paints lush soundscapes. Every detail is carefully polished, each atmosphere flawlessly intertwined. The rhythm flows smoothly, creating a unified, enchanting story that’s hypnotic and deeply immersive."

Adhémar (@adhemarmusic) is a multi-disciplinary artist, establishing his universe through music and visual works. Constantly in search of the luminous quality of sounds, in a world made of shadows and light, his music is closely linked to his plastic work. This obsession with shadows leads him to think and create spaces, atmospheres that focus on the lightness and poetry of light. The idea of "narrative potential of music", allows us to confront the psychological and philosophical journey with a particular relationship on what is alive and what surrounds us (whether it is the material, immaterial world, the fact that everything is constantly becoming). With a particular rigour for transitions, whether in his own production or in his DJset, his universe is built little by little, with the passing of sound transformations and the light and poetic transportation of it all.

Deep Breakfast 302 ~ Bambi

"Pause, serenity, preciousness. Healing. Sometimes, it’s simply about stopping. Taking a deep breath. Letting something subtle wrap around you and gently reach within. Travelling to places of harmonic beauty, where time stretches softly, where the mind can unravel. Returning. Resting. And perhaps, beginning again - with a clearer gaze, a quiet reset."

Dérive (@derive_ambient) is the co-founder of Muzan Editions (@muzaneditions), a tape label from Osaka, Japan, focusing on ambient and experimental sound.

In this new episode of the Deep Breakfast Series, we're pleased to host a DJ whose work we genuinely respect. Please join us in welcoming Verveine!
Co-founder of Ouroboros festival and audiovisual EWO collective, Verveine explores music without boundaries, blending ethereal ambient soundscapes, tribal percussions and dub-heavy basslines.

About the mix:
An invitation to introspection.

“ Here, in this wholly mineral landscape lighted by stars like flares, even memory disappears; nothing is left but your own breathing and the sound of your heart beating. A strange, and by no means pleasant, process of reintegration begins inside you, and you have the choice of fighting against it, and insisting on remaining the person you have always been, or letting it take its course. “ - Paul Bowles

2. From Within - Lost
3. Paul Bowles - Baptism of Solitude

Deep Breakfast 317 ~ Verveine

There’s something profoundly healing in the music of French duo Javier Salazar, whose output embodies the true medicinal power of sound. 

This mix takes our mind’s eye into the sunshine - grass between our toes, spliff in hand - as we get intimate with the scoops, wrapped in a warm, enveloping blanket of sound.

We hope this beautiful contribution brings you an hour of peace, just as it has for us many times over the past month. Thanks, Leo & Simon <3

The Observatory - Javier Salazar

A voice in the ether. A calm, clement drone. A gentle, pulsing throb. Like the ghost of a forgotten future as imagined by the distant past, Certain Creatures' sophomore LP Nasadiya Sukta is a study in timelessness — crystalline, heartfelt ambient music designed to push light through shadow. 

CERTAIN CREATURES is the alias of Brooklyn-based artist Oliver Chapoy, and Nasadiya Sukta was crafted especially for Mysteries of the Deep. Divided into six tracks, Nasadiya coheres into a single extraterrestrial mass, its beautiful understated elegance encouraging repeat listens. Simultaneously harking back to ambient classics from the '90s while cementing Chapoy as a visionary artist with his own unique voice, Nasadiya Sukta is one for the space travellers indeed.

MOTDLP001 - Certain Creatures | Nasadiya Sukta

What if music had no beginning, no end? Can music exist "for itself" or "of itself," without structure constraining it, defining it? Can music be non-linear, non-narrative, simply experiential, existential? The second full-length album on Mysteries of the Deep, Musica Enterrada from Portland's William Selman, neither answers these questions nor supposes them. But in listening, one can't help but wonder: What if I disappeared into this record forever?

In another time and place, William Selman was known as Warmdesk, an alias through which he issued a series of sharply precise minimal techno records. In recent past, Selman shifted gears, shedding the dynamics of tension and release that characterized his previous alias' output. Under his own name, Selman began releasing process-oriented, freeform experimental music on cassette-focused outlets like Digitalis and Hausu Mountain. Now comes Musica Enterrada, a diaphanous, weightless musical vision not unlike the theoretical square root of GRM and Popol Vuh's early electronic forays. 

Split into six tracks across two sides of vinyl, Musica Enterrada bubbles, churns, drifts, and dozes. Dulcet tones pile up gently like waves on shore. Patterns repeat and reconfigure, as if heard from different angles. Rhythms appear, shift the frame, then disappear, into the ether whence they came. Play Musica Enterrada on repeat. And if you disappear into it, fret not — you have drifted into solace.

Deeper still goes Interpretations Vol. II, Mysteries of the Deep's next collection of edits, reworks, and revisions, all culled from our second full-length LP, William Selman's "Musica Enterrada." Both the gentle bloom of Matthew Patterson Curry’s twist on the title track and Borne's shimmering percussion-forward version of 'The Island Before The Internet' hew pleasingly close to the source material. Elsewhere, rrao and Clay Wilson transform 'Thick Description' into a stygian journey, with a susurrant reiki session, and Strategy recombines 'Musica Enterrada' into a classic subaquatic house tune. A bonus original work from Selman, 'Sun Tunnels Tree Tunnels,' completes the release.

Interpretations Vol II - Musica Enterrada

MOTDEP002 - William Selman - Interpretations Vol II | Musica Enterrada

"I think of myself as a naturalist no matter the palette," says Lori Scacco, the New York multi-instrumentalist, composer, and electronic musician whose new album, 'Desire Loop,' is Mysteries of the Deep's third full-length LP.

Natural indeed: Scacco's music effuses warmth, enveloping listeners like a gentle embrace. Her first album, 'Circles,' was released in the early aughts on Eastern Developments, an imprint co-founded by Guillermo Scott Herren, aka Prefuse 73. She spent much of the interim period composing music for performance, film, and classical ballet, influences audible throughout 'Desire Loop.'

Flush with incandescent scree, bubbly synthesizer, and easygoing dulcet tones, the album's simplicity belies its emotional impact. At times — "Cosmographia" and "Other Flowers," for instance — Scacco's songwriting approaches a therapeutic purity that feels nearly virtuous, immaculate. This is by design: she wrote this album as counterpoint to today's destructive political landscape . "I had to create an empathic means of access for myself, and in turn, for the listener, using the core of all that I value as my way into the music,” she explains.

"I wanted to provide a vehicle for the listener to impart their own emotional experience without imposing my own meaning. I found myself returning to that space over and over again.” After listening to 'Desire Loop,' we expect that you will, too.
