Deep House Mini-mix (2009 repost)
Written by Saïd
This is a mix I made back in 2009, 13 years ago! I posted it on my back-then blog which I then forgot about (it was pretty much the only post). PHP / Wordpress versions on that blog are so old it made it crippled with vulnerabilities and the comment section got flooded by bots. I got access to it to close the comment section and I tried to update the thing but I then gave up, I wasn't able to figure out an easy way to update it while keeping the content. For the story, I got that space even before, near 2004. I was actively participating in a music website/forum called Universdj that was run by Dj TuXxL with the help of some house music heads. House music fans were sharing their mixes on the website. It was a challenge back then to share anything for free when there was no Soundcloud and MP3 sharing in personal websites was closely monitored by ISPs in France, afraid to get sued by Major record labels : my personal website hosted at Orange got closed multiple times and I had to reach out to them to get it reopened. I went to Free which had a more "open" policy regarding that kind of sharing. I'm no longer a Free customer but it amaze me that the website is still up ... for Free. The mix reflect the kind of music I was listening to back then, pretty heterogeneous, from Deep Techno to Detroit House and some Disco and Deep House Music. Good listening!
