| Cons: |
-No additional access to other sites
-Some scenes have intrusive spotlights, others have tragic lighting which create tedious experiences – generally the videos have dark lighting which I dislike
-Content is bland considering the moniker, stories are paper thin and compared to what I was expecting
-Model aesthetic differs from other Lansky sites
-Some shoots feature music that is too loud or lasts too long, should fade out much earlier
-Sizeable files, 4K range from 4GB to 11GB and 1080p from 2GB to 6GB etc
-Tragic search engine remains, no advanced searching available
-Can’t rerate scenes or models even if you’ve made a mistake
-Site can time out after some inactivity
-Notification bell cannot be disabled
-Little info on model profiles, only a brief bio
-Thumbnail previews only work on the main page (latest six updates)
-Oldest videos have no accompanying image sets
-No TBP Discount
-No downloadable trailer previews, could be handy with these file sizes |

Extra information:
No condoms (my preference)
A preface if you will. One weakness I’ve identified among Lansky’s sites are repetitive stories. While I praise his glam oriented vision, occasionally I felt that his production values would provide leverage. Good, creative stories freshen content up and can help combat the monotony folks at PU identified so I’m unsure why it’s low on the priority list. For me his sites are in the supreme bracket across the entire porn tree, but indeed this is a blemish overlooked.
By bringing Deeper into the fold, my interest was instantaneous as the name alone is possibilities galore, they could fill voids that have long been overdue: content with story behind it. Kayden Kross of TrenchcoatX was identified as an important figure to embark on this new project. She packed her bags to shift here from her old site, replacing the latter site and is thus at the helms of Deeper. I’m unsure of the semantics, but that’s the gist of it. You can search for TrenchcoatX but the link will redirect you here instead.
Deeper is the newest addition to Lansky’s ever-growing glam matrix. As mentioned before, this one is very much unlike its companions. Presentation wise. I would class their videography as a lush, premium blend of cinematic porn, with elements of gonzo through certain cuts and captures. Naturally you’ll think of Sex Art, but not so fast. They shoot material that could be stripped from shows and movies in my opinion. Not that it’s a bad thing by any means. Anyhow, it appears they’re trying the inquisitive and curious approach. All videos are available up to 4K, they aren’t messing around here. The talent pool is also unsurprisingly chock full of the most fabled adult stars kicking.
Let’s crack on. Needless to say, the moniker alone should depict a greater focus on story but I found that the emphasis I’ve been chasing hasn’t really been met. Instead, Kayden is churning out more BDSM material compared to her earlier work which I’m not keen on. It has its appeal, males dominating women through light BDSM but I think Deeper could and should be more. I don’t mind the odd shoot on it but recently it’s become so lopsided on that niche. Yawn, it’s just not my cup of tea - they should mix things up like they did before like with Lesbian content and amp up the dialogue.
Despite the intimate shots, the light-handed stories blot and hollow my curiosity, wasted potential. The natural model presentation Lansky is known for isn’t the same here either. Bright nail polish and lipstick are copiously used on newer material. I can appreciate a new site carving a distinguishable position among its siblings but thematically it’s not very cohesive. Over the years, Lansky’s beauty aesthetic played a major role on cannoning his body of work and name to the pinnacle. It’s off-kilter for this value to not follow suit in these parts.
More issues surface. While videos are exceptionally crisp, I don’t enjoy all aspects of it. The lens flare doesn’t add much and is at times obnoxious, but the lighting is another story altogether. It can get very bad. Some scenes contain a distracting spotlight, others would be disastrously unlit to the extent you see little to nothing of interest. It’s not very provocative if that’s the goal - they verge on unwatchable for me. Generally the videos have dark lighting which I’m not on board with. I also find it bizarre that some supplementary image sets are in settings that do not match with the video. This concerns the action, not solo imagery.
The more videos I watch, the more I’m unsure whether it belongs under the Lansky umbrella. Not because the quality isn’t there (it certainly is) but because it differs so much aesthetically. It hasn’t fit in snugly as I’d hoped. It’s an awkward one because it’s arguable that the Raw sites differ in that aspect as well. Either way, the name “Deeper” is ingenious. In theory it should yield a virtually bottomless pit of ways to get creative. At the moment though, they are not maximising their possibilities and potential to boot. Their content is quite inconsistent, varying from stylishly elegant to basic run of the mill couple porn or light BDSM with little bite to it. The model aesthetic bothers me as well. I don’t mind Deeper switching things up, but for me that’s a Lansky core that should be adhered to. Their older updates were better.
Expectation got the better of me. I have no aspirations of returning in the near future because for all intents and purposes, I found them underwhelming and bland even with regular updates. They need more creativity and dialogue to ascend to something greater. Something “Deeper”. Inside the Lansky fortress, this is the first site I’ve found pretty mediocre honestly. It didn't give me that wow factor. Give it a shot if you’re into these kinks. Perhaps it’s for you.
PS. the search engine is still terrible. |
