Crates & Cuts — 821 by Obi-Wan SA 03 July 2026
from The Deep House Show · host Obakeng Mholo
Crates & Cuts 821 is a celebration of everything that makes deep house timeless—soulful melodies, meaningful grooves, and records that continue to connect people long after their first release. This edition weaves together contemporary South African deep house with carefully reimagined classics, creating a journey built on gratitude, warmth, and musical craftsmanship. From uplifting vocal moments and groove-driven rhythms to heartfelt tributes and soulful reflections, every selection contributes to a story that unfolds naturally. The mix moves with confidence but never rushes, allowing each record to breathe while staying true to the spirit of long-form DJ curation. There is joy in this journey, but also reverence—for the artists, the culture, and the records that continue to inspire us. It is a reminder that deep house is at its most powerful when it brings people together through feeling rather than spectacle. Crates & Cuts 821 isn't about looking back. It's about celebrating how far the music has carried us—and continuing the journey, one record at a time. 1. Mariah Carey – Make It Happen (Aizo Clutch ReBass) 2. DJ Kent feat.
