History
Deep Dive Corp. was formed in 1999 in Hamburg/Germany. The driving force and featured guitarist of the band is Peter Musebrink. To this date DDC has released 6 albums. The first 3 albums have been released on Jubilee Records, and the latest releases have been released with their new label In-D Records. The music of Deep Dive Corp. has been included on many compilations such as the Lovefield Comp., Nirvana Lounge, Le Café Abstrait, N.Y. Lounge, DJ-Magazine, Luftkastellet, Hotel Costes, History of Chill, to name just a few.
The amazing feedback of their debut album "Support Your Local Groover" was no unexpected surprise. The range of Deep Dive Corp.'s music has a main connecting thread through all the tracks which fits them all together as an emotionally-experienced album.
Also on "Blackmail Recordings" you can find a likeable world of music that is definitely not able to be put in any genre. Downbeat, ambient, house, rap and dub describe the electronical part,and the warm, natural way of using tools and production gives the musical flavor. The song "Deep Heart" feat. Inaya Day is a good example for that.
With their third album "Beware Of Fake Gurus" these very charming men are once more diving deep into their musical spectrum. In this very fresh album Deep Dive Corp. has developed their multi-stylistic approach and uniqueness even more deeply, without losing the very specific emotional experience their music brings you. The uplifting track "Dehli News" is already the second colaboration between DDC and the master of the bassguitar, Hellmut Hattler.
"Freestyle Floating", their next album, sounds like the logical progression of the DeepDiveSound. With a more driving feeling and a slightly faster groove-base, Deep Dive Corp. repeats the excitement of their live shows in CD-format. A groovy, positive party-atmosphere that make for shaking hips and bobbing heads. Guest musicians like Hellmut Hattler/bass (TabTwo, Kraan) and Dennis Le Gree/voc. (Starlight Express, R. Kelly, etc.) keep the funk-level up.
"...and Some Funky Fish" is even more rythmic and various in style than you might expect. Thanks to Bahram Ji (vocals, santur and setar) and his son Bashir (toombak) in the tracks "Brilliance" and "Beloved", world and ethnic elements are back in the DDC sound.
This time DDC added funk and soul elements as well. Check out the track "Hands Up" with the remarkable voice of Dennis le Gree, who is a regular visitor in Deep Dive Corp. productions. DDC even rocks in "Galaxies" thanks to Patrick P´s soaring vocals + Boris´ powerful guitar. A japanese blues (!) in the track "Jiyou", features the exotic voice of Japanese Hideyo Blackmoon. And than there are the typical driving and phat grooving DDC guitar-tracks like "Blue" + "Slam Jam" which make it quite clear that only where you find the DDC logo on you´ll find sound that fits any mood ,situation, or vibe - from having a shower to rocking out at a spontaneous party.
The latest release "Undiscovered" is a remix cd, a new look back at DDC's work thru the spectacles of artists like Ibizarre (Hands Up), Timewarp Inc. (Blue), Havana Boys (Phony), Ohm-G (Walker), Razoof (Beloved) + Klovn (Brilliance), to name just a few. It´s a cd full of unreleased RMXs plus Deep Dive Corp.´s new track "Shine" which is included in the latest compilation "Luftkastellet 5" from Music For Dreams Records, the very innovative label from Denmark.
In their live shows, these experienced full-on musicians know how to rock the crowd. Today´s DDC-Livecrew is Peter, also known as P.M.FM, playing guitars and sequencing live on stage, with german bass-legend Hellmut Hattler (Kraan, Tab Two) keeping the bass-sections phat and juicy, while Oli Rubow (DePhazz, Die Fantastischen 4, etc.) is the driving force behind the drumset, together creating the perfect soundscapes, plus the true live feeling.
DDC is really playing truly live music in their shows, also using special hardware to create new sounds and effects in each song, and through the whole gig. This unique flexibility has proved to enable the artists to lift the audience to the highest points of ecstasy. During the performance the lively communication between the artists and the crowd supports a deep, personal atmosphere at each concert.

Deep Dive Corp. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Said she's feeling all alone
She′s crying cause she's down and out
Makes me shiver, makes me die
Wants to see me, I agree
Half an hour she'll be here with me
It′s been awhile since we last met
Sister shadow, Sister Moon
You are the candle in my room
You're my Queen
My fairy Queen
In the land of my dreams
She kiss me quiet then she flows through the door
She touches me softly and we fall to the floor
She covers me with a velvet coat
I close my eyes and let my feelings flow
Sister shadow, Sister Moon
You are the candle in my room
You′re my Queen
My fairy Queen
In the land of my dreams
You're dancing naked on the floor
She′s still enraged, i can move no more
How can I help to bring her down
Got no idea, she makes me drown
Next morning I awoke alone
No message left, already gone
I dreamed this night a damaged room
Where are you Sister, got to see you soon
Sister shadow, Sister Moon
You're the candle in my room
You′re my Queen
My fairy Queen
In the land of my dreams
Sister shadow, Sister Moon
You're the candle in my room
You're my Queen
My fairy Queen
In the land of my dreams
The song "Sister" by Deep Dive Corp. is a hauntingly beautiful tribute to the complicated and often tumultuous relationships between siblings. The song tells the story of the singer's sister calling him in distress, feeling down and out and seeking comfort from her brother. Despite the singer's mixed emotions towards his sister, he agrees to see her and the two spend an intimate and intense night together. As the night progresses, the sister's rage and despair become more apparent, and the singer feels helpless to do anything to ease her pain. The morning after, the sister is gone, leaving the singer to ponder his own thoughts and feelings about their relationship.
The lyrics are full of beautiful imagery and metaphors. The sister is described as a "shadow" and a "moon," representing both her mysterious and ethereal nature and the darkness that seems to haunt her. The singer also calls her his "fairy queen," reflecting the mix of magic and danger that he feels when he is with her. Despite his love for her, he cannot help but feel overwhelmed by her emotions and unsure of how to help her.
The song is a poignant exploration of the complexities of sibling relationships, with all of their joys and challenges. It is a beautiful tribute to the bond between siblings, even when that bond is fraught with difficult emotions and complicated histories.
Line by Line Meaning
My Sister's calling on the telephone
My sibling is phoning me right now
Said she's feeling all alone
She's expressing feelings of solitude
She′s crying cause she's down and out
She's sobbing because she's hopeless
Makes me shiver, makes me die
Her emotions affect me deeply
Wants to see me, I agree
She wants to hang out, and I agree to it
Half an hour she'll be here with me
She'll arrive at my location in about thirty minutes
It′s been awhile since we last met
We haven't met in a while
She′s rather strange and makes me mad
She exhibits unusual behavior that annoys me
Sister shadow, Sister Moon
Addressing her with these endearing terms
You are the candle in my room
You provide light in the darkness
You're my Queen
You're significant and special to me
My fairy Queen
An imaginary ruler who has magical powers
In the land of my dreams
In the realm of my imagination
She kiss me quiet then she flows through the door
She kisses me gently and departs without making noise
She touches me softly and we fall to the floor
She touches me tenderly, and we tumble to the ground
She covers me with a velvet coat
She drapes me with a luxurious jacket
I close my eyes and let my feelings flow
I surrender to my emotions
You're dancing naked on the floor
You're prancing around sans clothes
She's still enraged, I can move no more
She's still upset, and I'm paralyzed
How can I help to bring her down
How do I assist her in feeling better
Got no idea, she makes me drown
I don't know, and her actions are suffocating me
Next morning I awoke alone
I woke up by myself the next morning
No message left, already gone
She left without leaving a note
I dreamed this night a damaged room
I had a nightmare about a ruined space
Where are you Sister, got to see you soon
Where are you, sis? I need to meet you soon
