Sasha Carassi is one of the most respected figures in the world of electronic music. The Naples-born DJ and producer has spent over two decades honing a sound that bridges the raw energy of techno with the emotional depth of melodic electronica. His discography spans labels such as Drumcode, Diynamic, and Phobiq, reflecting both his technical precision and his capacity for emotive storytelling through sound.

Now, Carassi makes his debut on Dear Deer with ‘Rain’, a deeply atmospheric and cinematic production that marks a compelling new chapter in his artistry. Built around textured pads, hypnotic vocal samples and carefully layered drum structures, ‘Rain’ unfolds as an immersive sonic journey. The track moves through shifting cinematic soundscapes and dynamic melodic progressions, balancing subtle tension with powerful club functionality. Warm ambient layers set the tone before deeper low-end movement and expressive lead elements take hold, guiding the listener through an experience designed for both intimate club spaces and large-scale stages.

Dear Deer is a Kyiv-based label founded in 2013 by Alex Kaspersky, and has grown into one of the most recognisable brands on the global underground electronic scene. Known for releasing music from artists across more than 50 countries, the label specialises in melodic house and techno, progressive house and next-generation electronic sounds. With ‘Rain’, Sasha Carassi brings his underground credibility and deeply emotive production approach to Dear Deer’s catalogue, merging groove, texture and melodic storytelling in a forward-thinking and modern way.

You can now listen to the full premiere of ‘Rain’ exclusively on When We Dip Radio. Enjoy!
