Cat no. DWEP001
Format : 12" Vinyl
Release Date : Nov.2001

This, the first release form Deep-Water Recordings, sets the stage for the label’s musical mission. The EP opens with Bathysphere’s ‘Where’s Vicky?’ which uses horizontal breaks and slices of live trumpet to light up the darkest fathoms of lo-tempo jazz. Quantic take off where Bathysphere left off with a vibrant and beatz-heavy dance floor remix of ‘Where’s Vicky’ – to create the definitive future-past sound.
Flipping the 12 over reveals Normal Position’s ‘Verb’, an anthemic combination of time-stretched hip-hop deformity and Fila-Brazilia-esque late night atmosphere. Hint closes the EP with ‘Count Your Blessings’ – a loose funky slab of instrumental UK hip-hop which meanders into post-rock melodic territory.
