Deep Essentials Quit?

Dj/Producer duo Deep Essentials are calling it quits! 😱 Their final release, ‘The Last Dance’, drops on Friday, 13 February 2026.

...Backspace-Backspace-Hold backspace... Stop the funeral arrangements!

Despite the dramatic title (and the small detail that the EP is two months late), ‘The Last Dance’ was always meant to be the last dance of 2025 — not the end of Deep Essentials. But the ever-stubborn boss over at Basement Art refused to budge on the name and politely suggested that Deep Essentials save the creative control for their own label. Fair enough.  (Go check out Deep Essentials Records for music that is actually titled correctly).

Now Then, ‘The Last Dance’?

The EP features three tracks with rising talent:

• ‘Kinetic’ – a reunion with Gravy SA (from Let’s Get Groovy) 

-  Vinny Da Vinci Favourited this and gave it an honest 8/10.

• ‘It’s That Groove’ – featuring up-and-coming producer Da Motion 

- Ryan The DJ says this is a 10/10. We Agree!

• ‘Mission Impossible’ – alongside another up-and-coming producer SoullShvker

- Soultronixx (Artwork Sounds) gave this a 9/10.

Other supporting DJs include: Joonya T, JustMo, Salvador, Black Jean, Sir KG. 

Deep Essentials remain fully active, fully accessible, and fully committed to collaborating with fellow DJs and producers — especially the new wave!

So no, this isn’t the end. Listen to the Here
