Deepriver is the recently formed intercontinental project of Cape Town-based Jason van Wyk and long time Stockholm-based collaborator Joni Ljungqvist. Having worked previously in collaboration mining the more introspective side of trance, Deepriver’s inaugural aural statement, “Volume One”, finds the two experimenting with atmosphere and composition to maximal effect. Van Wyk’s recent viscerally experimental direction seamlessly coalesces with Ljungqvist’s conceptually reflective approach in a way that recalls the sounds and nostalgia of electronic music from decades past. Having slowly formed through many iterations, “Volume One” is out on June 16. — 1. Tides 2. Coastal 3. Home 4. Valley 5. Slower Waves 6. Motion Blur 7. Hours 8. Divided — Written and produced by Jason van Wyk and Joni Ljungqvist Recorded during 2022 in Cape Town, South Africa and Stockholm, Sweden
