Deep Threes
What songs would you want if you could only download one track per album? Deep Threes is the weekly radio show for the 21st Century digital music collector. Deep is a nod to the deep tracks of the past. Threes refers to the MP3s that fill up our hard drives. We mix extended eclectic sets that fuse jazz, rock, modern classical, electronica, world music and more. Since going on the air in 2010, Deep Threes has always dared to play long pieces that take music beyond boundaries. New releases from indie artists. Underground music from the commons. Rediscovered gems from the past. Music with bite, passion and depth. A Deep Threes mix can float over the clouds in the night sky, or gradually take you across terrain that is radically different than the starting point. Layers of found sounds, spoken words and subtle remixes are there to mark the way points in each excursion. Your destination: an oasis of deep listening and discovery.
