Podcast deep story nr. 205 | just keep dancing | by Dosem I find myself dancing in a colorful room. I can't see any walls anywhere and yet it feels like I'm inside a building. It seems as if the room is so big that you simply can't see the walls. Lights in all the colors of the rainbow are raining down from the ceiling. Well, actually, I can't really see the ceiling either. I just assume that there is a ceiling behind all the lights. The bodies of dozens of figures are moving around me, but no one seems to be interacting with me. No matter which way I turn, everyone has their backs to me as they twitch ecstatically to the music.I shrug my shoulders and just keep dancing. The exploration of the deeper side of techno by Dosem, since busting onto the scene almost 10 years ago, has seen him clock up countless air miles, release a string of hit club tracks and earn accolades from many of his peers, who deem him to be one of the most influential underground Spanish DJs in the scene today. The demand for Dosem's infusion of deep textured sounds, relentless precision drums and driving rhythms which make up his club cuts that are making dance floors shake the world over shows no sign of slowing. Enjoy the next hour of deep and dark music. Read More

Podcast deep story nr. 204 | modern myths | by Pia Pan & Heyoka Here are modern urban myths that stand the test of time and are considered unspoken truths. Nowhere written down, they are passed on from mouth to ear and only exist in people's heads. They persist and are part of the respective culture. There are also stories like this in the electro scene that fire people's imagination. The parties at Warehouse Chicago in the late 70s are considered the mother of all house parties. Animalistic scenes were said to have taken place there while Frankie Knuckles rained down his marathon sets on the crowd. Pure ecstasy rippled through the bodies of those present and the crowd was no longer made up of individuals, but was one big energy-filled being that had developed an uncontrollable life of its own. A movement emerged that anyone could belong to and which was referred to as "Jack" in later tracks. The urban legend of Jack is still used in tracks and mixtapes today. Of course, this is just one of many myths that have developed in electronic dance music. Perhaps with the deep story of Pia Pan & Heyoka we will be able to create a new modern myth that will bring people together again and let them melt into ecstasy. A mixtape that fires people's imagination and will be the subject of many myths in the future. Read More

Podcast deep story nr. 203 | splashes of color | by Maria Theresia von Eberg At the end of the year, things are known to get a little rougher. The wind picks up and pushes clouds in front of the beloved open-air sun. In the evenings, there's a stiff breeze and the whistling that sweeps through the leaves of the trees signals the dark season. With our beloved memories in our luggage, we curl up on the couch and let the outdoor experiences run through our mind's eye again. Outside, the wind whips incessantly against the façade. Autumn is here, spreading splashes of color here and gray fog there. In its inner conflict, which nature imposes on it as a link between the extremes, it develops a character all of its own. It not only combines the elements of the preceding and following, but also gives the world its own peculiar brilliance. On the one hand effervescent, on the other emphatically in love with detail, he enchants and gently accompanies the slowly tiring spirits into the early dawning cold. Today's deep story by Maria Theresia von Eberg is just as in love with detail as the fall. She combines downtempo with driving bass and covers this mixture with her own fresh ideas. For the acoustic fine-tuning of her deep story she had help from the berlin based artist Reyneke. She now tours all over Germany and plays the country's best-known festival stages. Her fusion set this year is particularly memorable. Read More
