There’s something different about summer. The days become longer, the evenings become slower, and life naturally invites us to pause, reflect and simply be present. UnderDeep 114 – Summer Session was curated for exactly those moments. This isn't a mix that chases the peak. It settles into the groove, allowing every record the space to breathe while gently guiding you somewhere calmer, deeper and more connected. As always, UnderDeep is a collection of music that has genuinely moved me throughout the year. This summer edition features incredible sounds from Hagan, Khadija, Aizo Clutch, Atmos Blaq, Sio & Dwson, alongside a future exclusive from Sef Kombo that I'm excited to finally share... • Press play. • Disconnect to reconnect.

There’s something sacred about pressing play on UnderDeep mixed live from Downtown Msheireb, Doha. It’s a decision. A shift. An agreement with yourself to slow down and tune in. This isn’t music for the algorithm. It’s music for alignment. Episode 112 moves like a conversation you didn’t know you needed. It doesn’t demand attention; it earns it. It doesn’t rush; it unfolds. Each moment layered with intention, space, and the quiet confidence of knowing that depth will always outlast noise. UnderDeep isn’t about being loud in the room. It’s about owning your presence within it. For the ones who feel before they speak. For the ones who move without performance. For the ones who understand that groove is a language. Press play. Disconnect to reconnect. Find your centre.
