Kind of ironic that you posted something that was not really loungey or deep at all with that comment... lol.
As for Farina, I've been a fan of his for a while now, but that's not the same thing either. His Mushroom Jazz tracks are closer to the first example I attempted here, with the breakbeat, which is what most chillout/downtempo is, and it's great stuff but not house. And his live sets are straight chicago-style bumpy house, not even close to being loungey.
It's actually pretty hard to find tracks in that sweet spot between too minimal and too deep i.e. - tracks that are sparse enough to fade into the background but still interesting enough to actively listen to. The closest I can think of is Move D, but it's sort of hit-or-miss...
(crap quality, only online copy I could find)
There's also Jonah Sharp, who used to go by the moniker Spacetime Continuum. Most of what he does is either ambient or downtempo breaks, but he has some housey ones too:
(That's major old, but good luck finding anything new from him on YouTube)

DJ Jus-Ed is a super good deep house guy. He had a bunker pod cast earlier this year i still listen to. You should be able to still get it on itunes.
Also Wolf & Lamb doesn't really do minimal any more. They are pretty much deep house now. Very deep some times.

I cant see this type of shit being played in a club all night but in a lounge over drinks sure the conversation flows better over relaxed music the hype music makes you dance

Deep House is real big in Croatia.
Along with Techno/Tech-House/Minimal and commercial house it is the most popular EDM.

Lisa Loo,
Check out anything by "St. Germain"
'Saint Germain des Pres Cafe Vol. 1' is one of my favorite albums of life.
