One-hour Deep House Mix

For your streaming enjoyment. I’ve recently posted a mix of some of my deeper, vibier tracks. This one covers both some very recent tracks as well as some of my classic tracks. Sit back and enjoy the grooves. I rarely post mixes so this is a rare one from me. Let me know if you enjoy it and would like me to post some more.

Behind the scenes – I usually make tracks in an environment called Reaper. But for this one I got out my classic copy of Ableton Live. I got my set list together and then pulled all the tracks into Ableton. Then I started thinking about set tempo. I usually produce tracks in the 120-125 BPM range, but here I thought I would go for 120 BPM so the vibe would be a bit more laid back. Next up I worked on track transitions. Once I had everything the way I liked it, I bounced it all out for sharing.

Out soon – Midnight Hearts!

I am so elated to share Midnight Hearts is coming out on June 26! Featuring the chillest deep house groove I’ve ever made at 120 bpm. Fast or slow, listen and decide for yourself! This track started out with an electric piano portion that was so tasty. I added a bass line that drew a lot on my bass guitar playing days. The vocal was a great addition, and my favorite is the harmony parts at the end. I almost didn’t have these but it just kind of came to me. It’s kind of like a harmony but also like an echo. You’ll know what I mean when you hear it. I also really like this vibe-y quiet part of vocals and electric piano that I put after the middle.

Of course, drums and this was coming along well for the most part. But there was a problem, the kick was a little off. I made some social media posts about this kick — it had a phasing issue. I thought I fixed it but… it always kept nagging me a little bit. Finally, late in the game, I was still messing it with so I got an even better kick that really shone. That meant some other adjustments which called for a drum reset. but it all turned out! Head to my Spotify playlist and follow so you’re all set on release day. Thanks so much for your support!
