0:00 In this video I've got the Underground releases November 2020 CD pool

Right, so in this video I've got the Underground releases November 2020 CD pool. I'm going to play a bunch of the tunes and let's work out what genre the tracks are, alright? So if you agree with me, leave a comment. If you disagree with me, of course, leave a comment. Don't forget to like and subscribe. Please like the video because it always helps me get booted up the system. I like that. Give him a good old boot up the bloody system. Anyway, this one here... Sorry, I had to do that. Bit of a mess around. Now, I would class this as almost like minimalistic tech house. Alright? So this is track 1 from disc number 1 and this is MK featuring Carla Menor 2AM. So what do you think it is? What would you...

Class this style as tech, minimal, deep. Let me know. This is really interesting actually because what we can do with this video is we could work out what other people think about tracks. So let's try track one from disc number two. Okay, Paul Wolfold and Diplo featuring Karen... Kareen! Sorry, Lomax looking for me.

1:55 Track number four on disc number

It's almost got that new age style house feel. Okay, what style would you give this? In a comment perhaps put track one, track two and so on and then leave your style next to said numbers. Okay, I'm going to do a random tune here. I'm going to go to track number four on disc number one and this one is Raven by Divine. Nice piano break there. It's almost like seven ways to love. Seven ways to love. Yeah, all right. Put it forward a bit. Okay, Raven. Again, with the Underground series, you know, you will expect to have more sort of your techy, twisted, left-field, bendy kind of tunes. You know, you're not going to have very many soulful, deep, shadow style, even though we had a little bit there. Oh, I like it.

A bit like a Cryoman tune. It's got that bassline. Okay, track three here from disc number two, entitled Lost in the Waves. Don't forget, all of these tunes can be found on the website cdpool.com. Just check out Underground November 2020 and you'll be able to hear these tracks as well as all the others. Stand by. What do you think of this one? A classic sort of more progressive house. Okay, coming up next... House Delo, The Emperor Machine Warehouse Jam. This is track number six from disc number one. Nice sort of 80s vibe there. Going forward a bit. Nice synth. It's got that deep kind of house feel. It's also got acid house styles in there as well. You know, it's got that original 808 sort of sound. Like it. Very nice.

4:53 Track number seven here from disc number two

Okay, track number seven here from disc number two. What's this one here? Let's have a look. This is Oh Baby by Danamo, original mix. A little bit deep but sort of progressive style as well. Again, quite techy. It's got that really nice metronome style clap, not the clap, the drum sample, the sound.

5:42 It's the hi-hat sound

That's what I was looking for, sorry, very funny. It's the hi-hat sound. Track number nine here from disc number one, Bronson featuring Gallant, Nomi, The Kassian Remix. Progressive House. Very nice. I'd love to hear this on a big sound system. Love to hear it on a big sound system. Really good. This is my favourite tune so far off everything I've heard. Definitely, by far. Very nice. Very well produced. Track number nine here. The last one I'm going to be playing today, and this is from disc number two. Track entitled Baby Forgive Me. In fact, I'll play you one more, so just think of a number now. Eleven. Right, I'll do that for you. Some of you are like, uh? How do you manage that? It's almost Deep House, really, this. Some people would class this as Deep House, but it's not really soulful.

Okay, high contrast, more likely it's drum and bass. Yeah, okay, I'll leave it at that. Again, sort of the new releases from CDPool every single month you get a whole bunch of different styles and genres. These are the underground releases and if you are interested in, you know, dipping your little toe inside the CDPool stable... Then there is a link in the description. Click on that, take your CDPool website. If you're a DJ in and around Europe and you haven't used CDPool before and you'd like to, you will get still I believe to this day terms and conditions apply but also contact the people at the website just in case. But you get 50% off your first two months downloads. Now that's not everything but...

It's worth giving it a shot, okay? Thanks for watching, practice and enjoy.
