Go Deep classic from a Jam classic from a jazz classic!

I love it when music bends genres. This house track has been tearing it up at Go Deep in the Pavilion lately and I asked Shane about it last night. He told me it was called "Infinity" and my suspicions that it was inspired by the Souls of Mischief hip-hop classic were confirmed (Itself a clever use of Billy Cobham)

Enjoy and catch Go Deep every Saturday at the Pavilion plus folow on Twitter here
