DeepDives With Patrick Hemming

DeepDives: Live, Summer 2025

Here's my latest escape. For this episode of DeepDives I've collected some of my favorite live songs pulled from decades of concerts both common and quite hard to find. I've taken great care in sequencing these songs as to flow in and out of each other creating (hopefully) a most enjoyable listening experience. Look for a tribute to the late great, Brian Wilson at the top of the show. Also look for a special episode of Dives next month focusing on the genius Brian Wilson's oeuvre has on offer. My friends, I hope you have a great week, and I'll see you in seven with a brand new episode for your ears to enjoy! 🤘

DeepDives: Hot Ones

As the start of summer is just around the corner later this month I thought now would be a good time to put out the sequel to January's Cold Ones Dive. All the songs revolve around the theme of 'Heat". 🔥 All the usual DeepDives formats are in here spanning the years 1979 through 2022. I hope you enjoy, my friends and I'll see you back here next week for a brand new episode for your ears to enjoy. 🤘

DeepDives: AOR & Melodic Rock, 1982 - 1995

My friends, here's this week's offering. A 1982 through 1995 Dive featuring AOR, Melodic Rock, Hard Rock, Hi-Tech & a smidge of WestCoast. This was a fun episode to put together. I added a few songs that might not necessarily be all that deep but they sure aren't ones you'll hear on the radio that's for sure. I hope you enjoy, and I'll see you back here next week for a brand new  DeepDives. I'm thinking about a "Hot Ones" episode. 🤔🤘

DeepDives: Hi-Tech AOR, Melodic Rock & Pop - 1984 - 1994 (Corrected)

This is the corrected version of this week's show. I played the wrong, Living In A Box, song and that mistake was driving me nuts. 😁 
After a week spent playing WestCoast I was chomping at the bit to transition into some Hi-Tech. This episode has a little bit of Hi-tech everything, all between the years 1984 through 1994. Hi-Tech AOR, Melodic Rock, Classic Rock, Pop & R&B. These are the salad years of Hi-Tech, and everyone was dipping a toe into its sounds. You're going to be surprised at some of the artists you'll find in this week's show. My friends, I hope you enjoy, and the good Lord willing and the creek don't rise I'll see you back here next week for a brand new Dive for your ears to enjoy. 🤘

DeepDives: WestCoast-ish II

Here's another round of some of my favorite WestCoast songs spanning the last six decades, from 1977 through to just a couple of weeks ago. Some might say they don't make music like this anymore. I hope with this episode I'll be able to prove those folks wrong. Enjoy, my friends and I'll see you next week for another Dive for your ears to enjoy. 🤘

DeepDives: Melodic Rock & AOR, 2000 - 2024

I hope you enjoyed last week's show because we're heading back to dive the same waters. The same genres apply: Melodic Rock, AOR, West Coast, Synthwave, Hard Rock & a wee smidge of Pop. All between the years 2000 through 2024. I hope you find this week's offering to your liking, my friends.🤘 Have a great week and I'll see you in seven-ish. 👊

DeepDives: Melodic Rock, 2002 - 2023

It's been a hot minute since we've dived off the waters of the first twenty years of the new millennium, 2002 through 2023 to be exact. AOR, Melodic Rock, Powerpop, Synthwave, Hard Rock, Pop & Rock are all spots we'll be diving too. Get your flipper, goggles and wetsuit and let's go for a Dive! 🤘

DeepDives: Ladies' Night, 1971 - 2025

I'm back with a Ladies's Night episode of DeapDives for your ears to enjoy. 🎶 This week every song features a lady's name in the title. Most of the time it's the only word in the title. For specialty themed shows I typically relax the song and artist paramotors and this episode was no exception. These are mostly artists that have made plenty of Dives appearances in previous episodes but as the usual I've added plenty of surprises into the mix. Some recently played artists are making a quicker than usual return and not all of the songs reside in the same depths of water. It's all part of the special sauce I like to use for themed episodes like, Ladies' Night. Enjoy my friends. I'll see you back here next week for a more traditional episode. 🤘🤙

DeepDives: Polished AOR & Melodic Rock Round III, '83-'93

Enjoy my friends. Here's the third part in an unintentional three-part series exploring the harder side of Dives. Last week I had a cataract removed from my left eye. Next week the right eye gets its turn. I'm not getting older, I'm just getting better. 😁 While this week I'm able to bring to you a new show, next week we'll be dark Rest assured I'll be working on the following weeks show. See you in two weeks' time, everyone. 🤘
