I did buy this when it first came out ( used to buy everything Masters at Work put out in the early 90s). But times change and tastes change and by the end of the 90s it got sold along with a heap of other records. ( I did keep the clear vinyl 12” of Just Believe” lifted from this e.p. for some reason!). As mentioned below - I think this came out around the same time as NuYorican Soul - The Nervous Track. The Nervous Track to me is a timeless classic - whereas Deep Inside is, I feel, very much 'of its time'. However - if you like it - I'd recommend checking out Mood II Swing's excellent dub mix of Barbara Tucker's Beautiful People.

Louie Vega has made reference on how the mastering of this record is not good. He did so during the RMBA lecture with Kenny. I feel the sound bangs. The top-end is a bit muddy but its a raw record so thats the feel I expected. He references over-compression by mastering engineer or perhaps the cutting engineer. I do feel the record has less dynamics than others, but again, i thought that was the mission for this track. Thoughts?

“Deep Inside” is definitely one of the most important songs in the history of house. It’s 2023 and this song still rocks. I’d love to hear the story behind this song.

August 1993. Pretty sure this came out same week as 'The Nervous Track' as I remember buying them both in City Sounds as new imports the same day.

Just an absolute classic, that shows the quality of music at the time.

This is a piece of my life. Love it so much.

I was coming to take a look at who produced this track, and quickly discovered that nearly all of the major names in house music came together to make this EP. No wonder Deep Inside is played so much!
