the sound of sound

Deep is broadcast citywide and webcast worldwide on Wellington's Radioactive 88.6FM every Tuesday night from 11pm - 1am.


We are pleased to announce that Podcasts of the last five shows are available once again at:

Deep's mission statement is 'the sound of sound' which offers a pretty wide range of recorded material to draw from. Four djs operate a loosely based four week turnaround which means each week the show sounds quite different from the last.



To get an idea of the artists and labels featured scroll and click through some of the playlists posted below. The only real constant is that you can be sure the sounds will be -

21/06/11 - Playlist - John - Winter Solstice special

Deep's Winter Solstice special  – a show for the misguided, foolhardy and courageous. The pagans believed that the world ended and started again each winter solstice, the longest night, after which the days began to grow longer again. In celebration of this I played, in it’s entirety, New York sound artist William Basinski’s 63 minute piece,  ‘Disintegration Loops 1.1’, which features a single looped sample gradually and  elegantly disintegrating over the period of an hour. It is an incredible and strangely enveloping listening experience and this was a rare opportunity to hear this piece, as there are very few radio stations in the world that would offer the freedom to play it. Incidentally, this piece featured on several 'Best of' lists, including being number 10 on Tiny Mix Tapes list of best releases of the 2000s. The second hour of the show featured Texan sound artist, Akira Rabelais’ stunningly beautiful hour long remix of Harold Budd’s ‘As Long As I Can Hold My Breath’, possibly one of the most sublime pieces of ambient music ever made and a wonderful way to celebrate the coming spring. 

William Basinski - DlP 1.1 - from The Disintegration Loops 1 (2062)
Harold Budd - As Long As I Can Hold My Breath - Akira Rabelais Remix - from Avalon Sutra (Samadhisound)
