Deep South Podcast 162 Kai Alcé

the opening song is for zoe...since she loved it so much when she heard it...

you may find her or her love toxic.. its not for everyone. and its not easy to navigate. but, for me at least.. its worth it <for now>. 
everything can change. and i am ok with change. or im learning to be ok with it.

anyway, as she would say.... no techno. you can leave cuz u wont find any techno here. 
i say...i do what i want. and u will find techno here. along with whatever other generic dance music i play.
...and so...her and i establish trust and boundaries. and thats why i have never really had any issues with her.  this is my experience. dont compare yours to mine. just do better for yourself.

Joe Gomez - Range Music NYC Radio Sho 05.28.2025 - Kai Alce / NDATL / Nutria Take over

Monthly House Set From Oakland by DJ TSU ALI

TSU CASA 119.2

NDATL’s sublabel NUTRIA proudly introduces its third release, NUTRIA 003, featuring the dynamic debut of South African artist Reagan Ruler with the _"Trouble Man EP"

Carving out a distinct groove at the intersection of deep house, soul, and jazz-funk, Reagan Ruler makes an undeniable statement with this 5-track EP.

Opening the release is “Hypnotize,” a smooth, spellbinding groove that lives up to its name—gliding effortlessly on warm chords, soft vocals and deep, percussive flow.

On the B-side, “Don't Stop,” a vibrant and uplifting cut driven by shuffling drums, radiant horns, and soulful vocals—guaranteed to move dancefloors from Joburg to Detroit.
Then Reagan delivers a fresh and respectful reinterpretation of Marvin Gaye’s iconic “Trouble Man,” blending his signature production flair with a nod to the original's emotional weight and cinematic soul.

Also included on the 12" are a Hypnotize (Instrumental) and a Trouble Man (Dub)—tailor-made for DJs ready to take dancers deeper.

The Trouble Man EP marks a promising start for Reagan Ruler and another essential release from NUTRIA camp.

OUT LATE JULY / EARLY AUGUST 2025
Distributed worldwide via select vinyl outlets.

I played a gig recently in june and got the recording... and i just didnt think it was great. it wasnt received poorly in the moment at the gig, that was all fine. but as a recording where i played 80/20 digital/vinyl, i just dont think it should have been that "jarring". im not super harsh on myself and i have learned to move on over time in this aspect.  i shared it with a friend and he said "oh dont  sweat it, it went well in the moment" - sure, like i said, it did.  but i would not be happy or "proud" putting it out.  fine. whatever. 
anyway, i kinda was not over it. so i decided to record a mix at home, this time 80/20 vinyl/digital. i got to pull old records that i havent seen or played in a while as well as some of the most recent music ive bought. 


the mix is dedicated to those peeps that care enough to: 
1. keep me in check
2. inspire me to do better; not better than 'others' BUT just, improve myself.

Sharing with the audience what I think are the greatest records of the moment or what I think are timeless and personal classics is something that has motivated me through the years. I see my job as being a big filter: As a vinyl junkie, I am in the record stores chasing jams almost everyday. And I am also following movements in what I hear such as when techno was revolutionary or when the NY deep house sound really expanded, that’s what I would showcase. Now that a lot of techno and house roots are being revived and also reinvented, I can as always, enjoy playing a lot of new amazing records and some classics!

Twenty years in, from house to techno and everything in between, DJ Deep has immersed himself in the ebb and flows of music, be it NY, Chicago, Detroit or today’s current pulsating waves. He captures the magic of each as a leading figure of the Parisian scene and label owner, connecting the dots both forward and back with his own personal and multidimensional touch.

DJ Deep first got his break when he was invited by Laurent Garnier to DJ at parties such as Oz and Zoo at club Palace, or Boy, in his hometown Paris. Followed by regular appearances at the influential Rex Club, radio shows ‘A Deep Groove’ on then pirate station Radio FG, and later Radio Nova, plus a string of mix CDs on Distance and Respect is Burning, DJ Deep began touring worldwide, spreading his house and techno obsession to audiences craving his deep crates of musical truth.

In 2003, DJ Deep launched his labels Deeply Rooted (formerly Deeply Rooted House) and House Music Records, shining a spotlight on true-to-its roots house and techno records and harder to find gems from the likes of Kerri Chandler, L.B. Bad, Terence Fixmer, Mike Dehnert and Roman Poncet. The dream catalogue sealed his music curatorship with timeless records such as Kerri Chandler’s now classic “Back to the Raw”, Ben Klock’s remix of “Pong” by Kerri Chandler and Francois X’s “Code Red” remixed by Marcel Dettmann.

A reformat in 2015 and DJ Deep’s latest evolution in expression sees him join forces with Roman Poncet as Sergie Rezza, an open-minded experimentation with a standout album on Desire Records and performances including Berlin Atonal. Their straight-up techno live project, Adventice, saw a trio of releases on the reputable Tresor with performances at Weather Festival (Paris), Reperkusound Festival (Lyon) and many more to come. Fang is the duo’s house-leaning alias, which marked Deeply Rooted’s momentous 50th release in 2015. Unabatedly, DJ Deep’s solo adventure also continues with his own deep “cuts” out on his label or under his Rébeval raw house alias, on the cult NYC L.I.E.S Records.
