.
The second track belongs to Hazem Saklbi aka Haze-M. Hazem, who comes from Tunisia, began creating music at the age of 15. As soon as he defined his own sound, he has been focusing on producing music he fell in love with, namely deep house.
.
Marcelo Nassi, the composer of "Deep Moving", is considered as one of the most requested artists of the electronic scene in Sao Paulo.
