On Sundays, I like to go for a walk in the morning. Most of the time, I head to my favorite park while listening to music :) It's my favorite day for digging because I have plenty of headspace. If you know me, you know this mix is very special to me, as I listened to Sundays on many of those morning walks. I tried to capture my vision of the Sundays spirit, which, to me, is all about variety: ambient, rhythmic/IDM tracks, and danceable tunes, all with a bright, colorful feel. Shout out to Command D and Other Joe for creating some of my favorite Sundays mixes!

Rest... Or at least the following Sunday after I performed this live set was. Because I have to admit, not all my Sundays are planned with recovery in mind.This particular morning found myself processing the prior evening where I debuted my live set under the Esquisse banner at a Church in Brussels. The acoustics were incredible and it felt like the reverberations would last forever, almost like a permanent eventide blackhole on the master!I always make music as a way to express myself. This can be an emotion, a memory or a way to cope with a situation... Which makes the creative process and performing, very fulfilling but sometimes also exhausting!

Me and Dan recorded this on a hot, humid Sunday in Sydney. It’s summer here right now and we tried to capture that almost intoxicating feeling that comes from intense heat, followed by the rush of relief when it breaks, like diving into water after a long walk or hike.Low Flung once said in a Theory Therapy interview that his ideal place to play live would be underwater, in the middle of the ocean. I think the tracks we’ve picked would fit that setting: lots of low end and dubby elements. Waterlogged music, in the best possible way.Words by @theory-therapyTrack list:DJ Birdbath - Dark WatersLeif - Wrong Wayemer - ShellHeavenchord - Untitledub 8Grand River - All Playing in JannahAreliz Ramos - Recuerda!

closes our 2025 series. It unfolds with patience, but not passivity. Small shifts accumulate. The mood is tense yet restorative. Unpredictability plays a central role here, not as a gimmick, but as a contract of trust between listener and DJ. This is not background music. Details flicker at the edges, atmospheres thicken, and time stretches in subtle ways that reward full attention. After spending countless hours this year immersed in experimental and ambient listening across many contexts, it felt right to close out 2025 in the same way. Horizontal offers a final chapter that does not conclude so much as open a door, pointing toward other rooms, other journeys, still waiting.https://soundcloud.com/paul-thomashttps://www.instagram.com/paulthomas_horizontal/Write up by @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc

In a moment where festivals blur into a constant scroll of names and posters, Ouroboros has always felt anchored to something more elemental. Tucked into the Cantal wilderness, it operates like a temporary ecosystem, built on trust between artists, crews, and the land itself. Toé sits at the center of that orbit. As a DJ, producer, and co-architect of the festival’s identity, her presence carries a quiet authority. The same sensibility runs through Soma Animae, her personal platform that reads like a field journal, and through Chimaera, the Eyes Wide Open radio show she curates for LYL. Spend a little time with her work and the through-line becomes clear. Nature is not an aesthetic reference point here. It is the operating system.That context matters when listening back to her set from this year’s Ouroboros, now part of our Delayed with series. Peak hour on paper, but the usual signals are intentionally bypassed. Instead of release-driven drama, Toé builds a flexible structure where tension is constantly adjusted, stretched, and rebalanced. Acid pressure appears and dissolves, depth gives way to propulsion, grooves are allowed to settle before being nudged elsewhere. Ouroboros’ connection to its surroundings has always shaped how sound functions there, and Toé navigates that dynamic instinctively. The forest is not a backdrop but a participant, absorbing and reflecting the pulse coming from the sound system. For those two hours, the exchange holds steady, neither side dominating. What you hear in this set is that equilibrium, electronic music meeting the physical world without either one blinking first.“We circle around and around and around. As if dancing with the fire’s breath. An ever-turning wheel, Like a flame spiraling itself into endless spaces.”Thanks to the producers : Ground Tactic, Marco Shuttle, Black Merlin, Function, Neel, Antigone, Rrose, VC-118A, Echologist, Varuna, Boston 168, Peter Van Hoesen, Silent Servant, Maurizio Cascella, Negative Return, Cio d’Or, Oskitronik, Michal Wolski, Muzmin, Donato Dozzi, Daniel Kane, Varuna, Luke Slater, Shifted, Forest Drive West, Stojche and Andy Martin.- Toéhttps://soundcloud.com/toe_musichttps://www.instagram.com/melu_toehttps://soundcloud.com/ouroboros-festivalhttps://www.instagram.com/ouroboros.sssswrite up by @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
In times of excess, there is constant pressure to cull the noise. A pressure to find those impactful releases that one really resonates with or causes some form of internal reaction. Less is more in this world, and the Russian imprint, Shurale embodies this. Since its creation in 2022, leading off with an inaugural compilation featuring Toki Fuko, Dycide, Altinbas, and A.G., the imprint has released once per year. Embodying the oft-repeated phrase, quality over quantity. Following a stellar Doltz release in 2024, they hand the reigns to o.utlier as he provides a master class in rhythms and textures under the guise of his forthcoming ‘Numina’ ep. Four tracks, each with a distinct personality and flow. Tensions rise and fall throughout, as there is never a stale moment, the musical elements constantly evolving and giving movement.Impulse to Obey is the proverbial shot across the bow, a taste of what is to come. Heavy synth leads set the tone, they pop and crackle around a steady bass line. There’s a certain weight to these elements that brings the track up a level, and ratchets the tension higher and higher as the track progresses.Numina will be released on the 12th of December.https://soundcloud.com/o-utlierhttps://www.instagram.com/outlier_rory/https://soundcloud.com/shurale_recordshttps://www.instagram.com/shurale_recordswrite up by https://soundcloud.com/huedjFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
geinst.bandcamp.com/album/hiber-traceDrawing a coherent link between various influences, @geinst joins Never Late with Hiber Trace where his analog-driven productions expand and contract time and space. The clear consideration for detail combined with an essence of tight timing and drawn delays, sets the groundwork for this EP. The accompanying artwork reflects not only the music but keeps a connection to the human element, which is a common thread throughout his work. Stark rhythms take us on twists and turns with abundant drops of surprises throughout. One is only left asking: where will he take us now?Beyond Layers arrives with a purpose we are but to discover. All there is to do is let oneself be guided by the soundscape that Gëinst creates. From the first moment we hear the intention behind every current, every beat, every silence. It envelopes us, introducing a profound space wherein which we can land and take off from, guiding us deliberately with finely tuned clicks, hums and hisses. Murmurs opens with a mélange of calmness and suspense. Building on the soft syncopated rhythms, a muted voice reminds us we are not alone. This nicely preempts Hiber Trace, the EP namesake emerging as a crisp track with a steadily evolving groove. Muted hi-hats, snares, and kicks are balanced with strong drumbeats that travel through the body, activating muscles to contract with the same frequency. Euphoria introduces yet deeper elements as though now passing through an ancestral forest. Organic sounds, resembling digeridoos and croaks like those of frogs on the forest floor, are accompanied by a surge carrying us to the next destination – Mugen, where we are greeted by a focused drum ensemble to be overtaken by stretches of lasers whispering echoes of spatial descents – until finishing as brusquely as it began. Still within the same realm, we experience the power of Labyrinth. This may be the most intricate track of the EP, summing all the previous ones into a final, powerful crescendo. Delicious drone drops preempt a soft closing allowing us to find a moment to return with a gentle landing.

A stranger to none in our corner of the musical world, Qeone has quickly become one of those must listen labels for each release that comes by our proverbial desks. Fantastic sound design, jazz-like tempos and improvisation mean molds are constantly being broken and rebuilt in the artists’ imagination. This focus on experimentation and fresh ears has laid the groundwork for a hotbed of creativity. A label is very much a reflection of those that run it, to the surprise of none Polygonia aka Lindsey Wang heads the imprint, and I can’t think of a better example of this concept. Simply her production chops, curatorial skills, work ethic, and attention to detail are all constantly on display with this project. Not even to mention the artwork, which she also creates for each release.For Qeone’s sixth and final release of 2025, Lindsey looks to Mexico City via Berlin based Viiaan and her forthcoming EP titled ‘Taiko’. Japanese for drum, the four tracker is a raucous affair, with bright percussion leading the way through syncopated tempos and an upbeat energetic atmosphere that gets the body moving.Rounding out the EP is Azkhar, a four minute wild ride through esoteric melodies and what seems like a molding of genres. Is it half-time, is it breaks, is it tribal bass, who knows. The results speak for themselves as heavy bass elements rumble under as the label states, ‘rhythmical chopped reese drones and flowing tribal grooves.’Azkhar and the remainder of the Taiko release will be out on the 4th of December.@viiaan@qeonewww.instagram.com/__viiaan/www.instagram.com/qeone.rec/Write up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
There are festivals you attend and festivals that rearrange something small but permanent inside you. Perpendicular belongs to the latter. After collaborating in the past from afar, 2025 was the first time we actually stepped into the pine-covered clearing that so many trusted friends had mythologized. The stories turned out to be accurate. Perpen is a wavelength, a temporary pocket of reality where strangers treat each other like long-lost cousins and music arrives without the burden of proving anything.Medi became the custodian of the final night, a responsibility whispered about long before we reached the festival grounds. We met him in Valencia days earlier, sharing coffees and paellas, and the quiet confidence in his presence suggested the weight of experience rather than ego. His record bag ended up in our car on the drive to the woods, and resisting the urge to peek at those vinyls felt like an oath. Friends offered no clues about what he might play, which only deepened the suspense. Some artists close a floor. Medi was preparing to close a narrative.When the cartridges were swapped, and the stylus touched down, fatigue evaporated like mist. Techno and electro braided, pulled along by those razor-sharp snares that sliced through the smoke like a metronome for the collective psyche. Each snap felt like a reminder that the night still had business to finish. Medi’s vinyl work was absurdly fluid, so intuitive it seemed the records were cueing themselves. Broken patterns teased hallucinations, basslines carried the tired bodies into borrowed energy. Then The Cure’s Forest appeared like a knowing smile from the universe, reminding us of where we were and how lucky we felt to be there. The dancefloor dissolved into laughter, hugs, disbelief, and eventually a gentle crawl toward La Cabaña for one final ambient delirium.What lingers about this mix isn’t just the track selection or the execution, but the emotional climate it documents. You can hear the relief of a weekend well-lived, the gentle ache of goodbye, the kind of affection that only forms on a dancefloor surrounded by trees and dust and shared emotions. Perpen 2025 quietly rewired our sense of what a festival can feel like. Until the next pilgrimage, Medi’s recording remains the ember reminding us it wasn’t a dream.www.instagram.com/medinofiloWrite up by @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
Congratulations are in store as the Italian imprint Pregnant Void marks their 20th release via a phenomenal LP from the Berlin based, Toxido Mask. With prior contributions on Semantica, Art Bei Ton, and Futurepast; the Tresor resident’s latest offering titled ‘Spirit Waters’ is a welcome addition and her first, furthering the label's commitment to contemporary music with an experimental edge. Coming in at eight tracks, six originals and two remixes by Ina Kacz, and Nadia Struiwigh respectively, the release maintains a transformative and introspective theme throughout as each track unfurls slowly and intentionally without pressure. Providing those moments of solitude and space to experience the surrounding sounds.Falling in the middle of the release, Spirit Guide is the beginning of the exhale to the inhale that is the first half of Spirit Waters. Listening from cover to cover, there’s a subtle uplifting feeling in the first three tracks, the melodies ethereal, all channeling a sense of anticipation. Spirit Guide rises softly from the depths, its synths working overtime as they seemingly engulf and wash over the listener through the whole spectrum of frequencies. From the warmth of the low end to the spacey highs and glittering accents and tribalistic drum patterns, each element intertwines and works seamlessly with each other.Spirit Waters will be released on the 5th of December.@toxido-mask@pregnantvoidwww.instagram.com/toxicmassk/www.instagram.com/pregnant_void/Write up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc

Flows presents its inaugural release: Owl’s Spectral Shadows. The record feels like an artist and a label meeting on the same wavelength, both drawn to subtle tension and to spaces where rhythm holds its breath. Owl has always had a way of turning minimal means into emotional weight, and this release extends that curiosity into something more cinematic, but never indulgent.Our premiere, “Infinite Dusk,” is the shadow at the edge of that world. It moves with the patience of fog drifting through an empty dockyard - rhythm suspended in its own breath, melody folded into vapor. The halftime pulse anchors an atmosphere thick with suggestion: faint strings flicker like reflections on water, while metallic cries echo in the distance. It’s a track that lives in the moment before something happens, and lingers there just long enough to make you feel it might.Infinite Dusk and the rest of the Spectral Shadows EP are coming out on November 27.https://soundcloud.com/owlfromdeepspacehttps://soundcloud.com/ebbsandflowshttps://www.instagram.com/pete_owlhttps://www.instagram.com/_ebbs_flowsWrite up by @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc

Beloved Berlin imprint Kizen Records expands its 2025 account with another long player, this time sliding into the slow burn of dub. Lunar Cycles is the latest chapter in the ever-expanding catalog of Lithuanian producer Tadeuš Jatkevič, better known as Akmuo, whose recent years have been a steady drift through every shade of delay, echo, and negative space. His new album doesn’t chase reinvention so much as deepen the craft. It moves like someone walking familiar streets at a different hour, recognizing the contours while noticing new colors in the shadows. Across ten tracks, Akmuo shifts tempo and density yet holds the same suspended atmosphere, letting each piece behave like a different facet of the same mineral. The result feels almost didactic in the best way, a primer on how dub can stretch across forms without losing its pulse.Our premiere today, Life, is part of the album’s closing pair alongside Lunar 2. It’s a fast mover on paper, deep in the 140s, yet carries itself with a softness that defies the number. Two dub chords orbit each other in slow rotation, drifting in and out of alignment while the four to the floor anchors their dance. Percussion gathers in small increments, never announcing a shift yet constantly nudging the track forward. The background hiss blurs the edges, turning the whole thing into a kind of illuminated fog. It’s a fitting endpoint: energetic, restrained, and quietly luminous. Lunar Cycles arrives November 28 on cassette and digital formats.@kizenrecordswww.instagram.com/_akmuo/www.instagram.com/kizenrecords/Write up by @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc

There was a meme circling the internet at some point saying, “People who show you new music are important.” Connecting with Axymt, a Lyon-based DJ and music aficionado, feels exactly like that. It is like meeting someone who speaks your dialect of obsession, where recommending a track is almost a form of autobiography. His work with atmós sphaîra, Monochrome, and the Ouroboros crew carries the rare consistency of someone who pulls from many corners yet curates with a firm sense of direction. You can sense the collector’s instinct in the way he folds tribal percussion into dub-leaning atmospheres and in the way groove becomes a kind of compass, guiding the set without ever feeling decorative.For this edition of Delayed with, he eases into a slow-moving techno ritual that feels deceptively simple on the surface. The BPMs sit low enough to let the body loosen and the mind wander, yet the pulse keeps sliding forward with a subtle undertow. This is the zone we jokingly call seaweed techno, flexible and buoyant, shaped by tiny currents rather than grand gestures. Axymt sidesteps the temptation of drama and focuses on micro-movements inside the percussion, letting small mutations carry the narrative. The mix can open a room gently or guide you through a late-night drift. Whether you catch it in passing or sink fully into its grain, the reward is the same: a gentle nudge that the right groove finds you, not the other way around.https://soundcloud.com/axymthttps://www.instagram.com/axymt_/https://soundcloud.com/atmos_sphairahttps://soundcloud.com/monochromeassoWrite up by @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
Music travels faster than ever, yet the connections that shape it still depend on patience. Sense of the Substrate, the new release from our own Griff Fulton under his Aspetuck alias, feels like the result of that slow exchange. Out on Konstrukt, the Nijmegen label that has built its identity around subtle consistency, the kind of releases where artwork, sound, and intention all seem to breathe the same air. Aspetuck’s latest record fits naturally into that lineage. Following his standout LP on Oslated earlier this year, Griff returns with a five-track EP that combines warmth, precision, and patience into a sound that feels unmistakably his own.The record moves through slower tempos and unforced grooves, where rhythm has room to stretch and melody can take its time to unfold. Our premiere, “Subterranean Rhizome,” sits right in that zone, a track that glows rather than burns. It opens with interlaced percussion and a gentle breakbeat that sets a calm propulsion, gradually joined by flickering chords that rise like light through shallow water. Every element feels hand-shaped, balanced between the tangible and the ethereal. By the time the main riff arrives, you’re already somewhere else entirely, in that rare headspace where the body listens and the mind moves.Sense of the Substrate arrives November 21 on Konstrukt, available digitally and on vinyl. It’s another chapter in a story that values connection over noise and craft over speed, the kind of record that reminds you why physical formats, and the people behind them, still matter.@aspetuckwww.instagram.com/aspetuckmusic/@konstrukt-5www.instagram.com/konstrukt__Write up by @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
Some collaborations feel orchestrated. This one felt inevitable. Reeko and Mostra share a certain DNA - innovative, uncompromising, with an appetite for risk. One’s a festival, the other a force of nature, but both operate outside the usual margins. So when Reeko stepped into the cavernous Pavelló Olímpic on the final day of Mostra 2025, the match didn’t need explaining. After three days of sonic overstimulation, the crowd could’ve easily slipped into post-peak autopilot. Instead, something sparked.Reeko played with the confidence of someone who doesn’t need to raise his voice to be heard. He didn’t grab attention, instead he tuned the room to his frequency. No spectacle, just sustained pressure. The kind that doesn’t shout, but hums somewhere in your bones. From the first mix, he had total control, not just over tempo, but over tension, perception, direction. It wasn’t peak-time euphoria. It was something colder, sharper, more elemental.What happened on that floor wasn’t mystical, and it wasn’t romantic. It was human circuitry, bodies moving like they’d been rewired. A dance floor fully switched on. In a festival stacked with standout sets, this one kept floating to the surface in post-Mostra conversations. We’re proud to share this recording. It was special. Now it’s permanent.https://soundcloud.com/reeko-musichttps://www.instagram.com/reeko_mentaldisorder/www.mostra.barcelonawww.instagram.com/mostrabcn/@mostrabcnWrite up by @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc

Columbian-based label, From A Lost Place is no stranger to us here at Delayed. Since 2018 the imprint run by founder, Launaea has been a consistent presence in the ambient, deep and experimental musical worlds that we are so fond of. With past releases including notable names like Zemög, Claudio PRC, Launaea himself, and a few monster compilations, there’s something for everyone in their rich backlog.Marking a new direction for the label, the latest forthcoming release, titled ‘parasympathetic’ finds us listening to a glittering five tracker by the German artist, YYARD. Bright melodies abound as the label states, ‘perfect definition of the artist's eclecticism, blending groove and jazz influences with very meticulous rhythms, rich and organic percussions perfectly suited for the dance floor’.'apnoe', the second to final track on the release, takes a darker approach, compared to the emotional highs of, say, Endless Summers. A full-sounding synth lead takes center stage as it grows and grows, while snappy percussion plays throughout, providing that proper groove and infectious movement. Tracks like these are ear worms and proper for a warmup session.'apnoe', and in turn ‘parasympathetic’ will be released on November 20th.@yyard_musichttps://www.instagram.com/yyard_music/@fromalostplacehttps://www.instagram.com/fromalostplace/Write up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc

Ehndo’s Exploration Zone marks a natural continuation of the path he began with Genesis on Penumbrum earlier this year, one where rhythm, tone, and patience meet. Released via the Brussels-based imprint Empyrean Wave, the label’s second release points toward a promising direction, an emerging platform attuned to subtle motion and refined design. The EP brings a quiet yet confident expansion of Ehndo’s palette, joined by a remix from Australian producer Al Dente.Our premiere for today, “In Search,” embodies Ehndo’s understated craft. Its percussive liquid flow and clean sound design move with quiet logic, each sound in service of a slow-building momentum that never quite tips over. Rather than pushing forward, it circles gracefully, inviting attention through small detail and restraint. The result feels less like a peak-time statement and more like an opening chapter that defines the mood to come.Exploration Zone is set for release on November 5.https://soundcloud.com/ehndomusichttps://www.instagram.com/ehndo____/https://soundcloud.com/empyrean-wave-943958516https://www.instagram.com/empyreanwave/Write up by @gilleswasserman Follow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
Morning sets at Perpendicular have a peculiar gravity. They pull you back from the cosmic edge of the night without quite letting you land. After 037’s slow ignition, Vinna Våldyr took that half-awake crowd and stretched time into something soft yet edgy, cinematic yet tactile. Pads hung like fog over the valley, while pianos and sax sequences drifted through, slightly detuned, as if remembering themselves in real time. The rhythm came and went in gentle tides, dub-laden and patient, never in a rush to declare where it was headed. It was music that trusted silence yet always hinted at motion beneath the surface.We first entered Vinna’s world through his Simbiosis Festival recording from Seville, a set that felt like discovering a hidden portal in daylight. Hearing him at Perpendicular this year confirmed it: his control of energy is uncanny, like someone painting with both watercolor and graphite at once. The sun filtered through the trees, its pine-scented air wrapping the floor in calm. People swayed or lay still, hammocks swinging at the sides, and the line between listening and dreaming disappeared. It’s rare to find a DJ who can massage your neurons and still make them spark, but Vinna does both with ease.https://soundcloud.com/vinnavaldyrhttps://www.instagram.com/vinna_valdyr/https://soundcloud.com/espacio-perpendicularhttps://www.instagram.com/espacio.perpendicular/Write up by @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
bass, and techno, mutating with each new generation of producers. The city remains a living organism, constantly reshaping itself through DJs, club nights, and collectives that resist repetition. Unknown Species, a London-based platform and event series that blends music and environmental awareness in support of endangered species, has carved out a corner for artists to explore that freedom. Its founder, Rado, better known as Naturalisten, is the musical mind behind this week’s edition of Delayed with.This mix was recorded almost a year ago at Espacio Perpendicular in Madrid, during the first collaborative event between Unknown Species and the Perpen crew, alongside Delayed friends F-on, Fran Campos, Lynne, DB1, Felix K, Muted, Vrika, and Pillen. It’s a space where rhythm meets reflection, and Naturalisten rises fully to the occasion. The first half builds tension through shifting grooves and subtle rhythmic displacements, a controlled energy that feels alive and restless.As the set unfolds, the edges blur. Synths stretch into stranger territories, textures become unmoored, and the intensity softens into something beautifully off-kilter, a reminder that unpredictability can be its own kind of balance. Naturalisten lets the music speak, and it speaks fluently, with groove, curiosity, and a quiet sense of purpose.https://soundcloud.com/unknownspecieshttps://www.instagram.com/unknown____species/Write up by @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc

Not one, not two, not three, not four, our premiere for the day comes via the 11th album from a trio known as Elektro Guzzi. Based out of Vienna, the band has built an impressive catalog of instrument driven electronica that grabs your ear and doesn’t let go. For over a decade they’ve been honing the sound, and precision necessary to excel, rare is an electronic band like this, and rarer still a club forward one. Liquid Center, from cover to cover showcases the breadth of their productions, from thumping peak time techno, to moody downtempo. Hitting all the stops in between. Rhythmic percussion and warm bass lines provide the base for most of this release. Each track building and building, highlighting the slight variations that can only come from a human source. Such a treat.Solar, appearing towards the end of the album, provides a slow, chugging, groovy vibe. Carried by crisp percussion, the track develops with a restrained attitude, element after element. Steady on, steady on. Nonchalantly swelling with melody in a few peak moments before dissolving gracefully into its base components.Solar, and in turn Liquid Center will be released on October 24th.@elektroguzziwww.instagram.com/elektroguzzi/Write up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
by name, and a turbo trip it is. This track is squelchy, transcendent, and strikes that sweet spot between deep ambient house and techno. It’s dancefloor-focused - a trip, but with some oomph and turbo (still soft). Hi-hats arrive and immediately pick up the energy. As club season is well and truly in full swing, this is a number that will fill the room with warmth, taking things up a gear while retaining that soft demeanour Will sprinkles over every piece he produces.'Part of the Picture' is released on October 24th@willlyouhttps://www.instagram.com/willyou.dj/Write up by @danpeplowFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
Every year, Alfonso, the artistic director of Mostra, hides a few cards up his sleeve, and this time one of them was DjSport. Closing the Friday program at Fabra i Coats is never random, it’s a statement, and by the time her halftime pulse began rolling through the space, we all knew why she was there. The groove was elastic, full of tension that never broke until she decided it should. Then came the shift: precision turning into pressure, tempo climbing until Fabra felt like a steam room. Just when it seemed ready to tip into chaos, she had her “hold my beer” moment, controlled detonation, a sudden swerve into broken, bass-heavy terrain that felt like opening a window mid-storm. From there on, it was cruise control, the kind that hums with energy yet never loses composure.Mauritius-born and now based in Barcelona, DjSport carries that balance of warmth and unpredictability wherever she plays. Her debut at Mostra was the kind that makes you trust Alfonso’s instincts even more, those mysterious names on the poster that end up defining the memory.https://soundcloud.com/djsportthttps://www.instagram.com/djsport__/www.mostra.barcelonawww.instagram.com/mostrabcn/@mostrabcnWrite up by @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
Super Enjoy. A relatively new label on the scene, this crew is moving from Singapore to the world. With seven strong releases since the start of 2024, they've already well and truly shaped their sound and forged a prominent position in Asia and on dancefloors across the globe. Their diverse, yet distinct, style spans smoked-out, dub-infused house and techno, and playful breaks, featuring works from artists like Bongoman, emanon, Sigmoid FM, Kross Section, and Dexter Colt.Dexter Colt is a dedicated selector, whose passion for digging up and platforming new sounds is in plain sight with his work on Singapore’s Darker than Wax and Super Enjoy. He's on a mission to discover music daily and bring emerging artists to the forefront - and it's time we do the same for him. He's no stranger to NYC, the home of Delayed, where he regularly joins Marco Weibel’s monthly Darker Than Wax show on the city’s The Lot Radio, hosting guests whose styles and energies span all corners of the music scene.Today we’re highlighting a new track of his ‘The Sleeper Must Awaken’, off the Super Enjoy co-founder’s debut solo EP, ‘Mesmeric’. And mesmeric is a perfect word for the track. It’s dancefloor-focused with a hypnotic pull, an ambient touch, and deep, dusty, levitating basslines. Every track on the EP oozes personality. This is a refreshing new discovery, and definitely one to keep a close eye on for home listening or to get people moving.‘Mesmeric’ is released digitally on October 24th.@dextercoltwww.instagram.com/dextercolt_Write up by @danpeplowFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
The warm afterglow of a weekend of music. Smoke filled rooms and comforting tones, all shades of ambient and beyond. This is what I played for my set on Sunday, the final day at our annual barn gathering. Everyone melted into couches, flitting in and out of consciousness. As light turned to darkness ever so gently, we all took turns providing a sonic window into what the day of rest and recovery means.Track list:Genis Remacha - Flight towards the vulgar beginningThe Microgram - Cloudy SolutionBarefoot - EternalismZenso - EdenConcave Reflection - ParadiseJames K - Idea.2Marv - LaughingArea 3 - Deep SeekDania - Car Crash PremonitionOffthesky - falsewakemixed and compiled with love by hue | @huedjoctober 2025follow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
Kyoto-based DJ and producer Yuddy Ash has been steadily finding his voice over the past few years. Following a series of online appearances and a collaboration with silkscreen. on GIFKIKKER, he now joins the Delayed with series with a mix that favors movement through restraint, using rhythm as a thread rather than a tool of impact.Across sixty-one minutes, it unfolds with a steady pulse, subtle shifts, and a lightness in tone. It’s a late-night listen that moves from deep low-end flow to airy percussion. The transitions are soft, almost invisible, yet the direction remains clear, a quiet reminder that less can still move plenty.https://soundcloud.com/yuddyashhttps://www.instagram.com/yuddyash/Write up by @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
A veteran to the jungle and footwork scenes, Austrian based artist Simon Hafner aka Sun People has steadily grown a dedicated following through his string of strong releases on Exit Records, Defrostatica, Outlines, and Candy Mountain. Now reaching a new milestone in his musical career, Hafner is starting down his own path by launching a new label dedicated to his own productions and projects with like-minded artists. All Things Records starts off with a raucous bang as Hafner holds nothing back in his first album on the label titled Look Within.Coming in a blistering 10 tracks, there is something for everyone to be found within. Expertly playing with a variety of inspirations and samples, the tracks ebb and flow but stay coherent. Through playful moments, and ambient, space filled interludes, the production is top tier, and the sound design equally so. A well picked, and compiled body of work that showcases the scope of what Sun People can do.This Morning is the ending track of Look Within, and while last, certainly not least. The haunting disembodied voice lays the groundwork for a deep and dark percussion line that picks up after a breathy start. Energetic and seductive, the track entices you in and before you know it, you’re bouncing around without a care in the world.This Morning, and the rest of ‘Look Within’ will be released both digitally and on vinyl via Bandcamp on the 17th of October.@sun_peoplewww.instagram.com/sunpeople_official/Write up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
The night had turned cold by the time Camu began, but inside La Cabaña, everything felt suspended: warm light, still bodies, a low hum stretching through wood and pine. People settled into corners, wrapped in layers, quieted by the vibration that marked the start. The music felt transmitted, its slow-moving drones drifting through the wooden walls and into the forest beyond. The sound rolled out like fog under moonlight, patient, opaque, its motion too subtle to measure. It was music to dissolve into.Minutes became air. The cabin started to tremble. Camu’s sense of space was uncanny, each drone a line drawn in mist, each pause a small release of gravity. Later came the fragments: field recordings, faint acapellas, echoes of the forest replayed from another world. By then, the cabin no longer felt grounded. It was a stationary vessel, hovering somewhere between the trees and the stars, surrounded by invisible energy. Somewhere, just beyond the clearing, Pablo’s bass murmured like thunder in a parallel world. When silence finally returned, it wasn’t emptiness; it was the echo of what had passed through.tracklist:Submersion – OneWilliam Basinski + Richard Chartier – Aurora LiminalisKreng + Svarte Greiner – The Night HagOren Ambarchi – WednesdayTVS – BlackMSOwl – Entheogen Riddim (feat.

Readers at Delayed may be aware of our pilgrimages upstate to our home away from home. The long weekends away at a place we affectionately call the ‘Barn’ serve as a mental recharge, and rejuvenation of creative inspiration, not to mention time spent together with close friends. During one of last years’ editions, we were grateful to spend time with Lisbon based artist, Verena aka Ena B. Her passion for music, and penchant for creating ethereal vocal ambient tracks all contributed to a fit in with our crew of fellow music nerds and producers.Marking a new chapter in her musical career, Ena’s forthcoming self release teases a darker, techno edge. She forgoes the light, melodic pads of the past and dives into the depths of a grittier, harder sound. Fernweh, our premiere for today is a slow burner, building tension with every beat. The kicks and spacey textures laying the groundwork for a swelling crescendo of synths later. A moment that would be right gracing any club or dimly lit room, full to the brim with writhing bodies. Building on these themes is a 5 track offering titled, ‘Nightwalk’ that will be out soon via Mexican imprint Secuencias Temporales. Between the two releases, it’s a 1-2 punch of deep techno, and breaks that shows off her production chops.Fernweh will be out on her Bandcamp, the 3rd of October.@enabofficialwww.instagram.com/enabofficial/Write up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
The fire at the center of the floor was more signal than warmth against the countryside chill. Sparks shot upward into the night as dancers circled around, bodies locked into the pulse spilling from the booth. Above Below Festival thrives on these elemental juxtapositions: a rural valley transformed into a site of intensity, a cocoon-like booth channeling waves of sound that felt larger than the space itself. With every kick drum, the edges of the night blurred, and for hours the crowd existed in a suspended orbit around light, heat, and rhythm.It was here that Timesplitters, Jake and Pat, took hold. Their set drove forward on cavernous bass, but the force alone wasn’t what bound the floor; it was the shifting mid-range voices, synth lines and melodic sequences mutating like smoke from the fire, wrapping dancers in a narrative of tension and release. They approached the set less as selectors and more as authors, tracing the night with a balance of discipline and wildness. Despite their name, there was no split in time, only the sense of one continuous current, shared in firelight, smiles, and unbroken motion.https://soundcloud.com/timesplittersmusichttps://soundcloud.com/abovebelowfestivalWrite up by @gilleswasserman Follow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
Jin Synth is a Taiwanese sound designer, producer, and DJ whose name has been a long-time fixture in the London scene. Her artistic delivery is characterised by ambience, experimentation, and a never-settling nature.This four-track project on Italian label KR3 marks five years around the sun for the label and showcases the distinct yet complementary visions of Jin and Marco Maldarella, and mastered by Peter Van Hoesen. A recipe for success? We think so. "From many strange places and by many strange roads" is the label's message to us on Bandcamp, and this EP ‘The Neural Abyss’ facilitates a new place to explore.When first attempting to describe this track, I immediately felt it was a calling - a cry for communion, a summons to meet, a pull towards something unfamiliar, somewhere to unravel and understand more, perhaps from within a snowy mountain range? I hadn't yet noticed the title, but it makes complete sense that the track is called "Signal." A signal and a calling are fundamentally similar: a message, which is precisely what this music is.The sounds funnel us through the deep, spiralling crevices and dark corners of the mountain. The echoes are hypnotic, fuelling this journey. What Jin achieves here is the expression of a route of thought of her own, providing many paths for the listener to interpret as their own and it’s available to pre-order on vinyl and digital now and will be released on Friday 24th October on Bandcamp.@jinsynthhttps://www.instagram.com/jinsynthWrite up by @danpeplowFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
Barcelona’s Obtuse Swamp has been building a catalog that values depth over immediacy, and its third release, Reef Stage EP, extends that approach. Ilayruni delivers five originals that follow different routes through polyrhythmic terrain and show a fascination with rhythm’s ability to bend perception, supported by remixes from o.utlier, Caldera, and Arsène Martinet. There’s a peculiar space on the dancefloor reserved for tracks that are neither peak-time weapons nor background textures, the zone where hypnosis sets in. Telepathy Tapes, our premiere for today, sits right in that territory. Its low-slung tempo carries real weight, yet the percussion feels meticulously carved, with each strike holding space rather than filling it. Vocal fragments drift through like subconscious prompts, keeping the groove alert even as it sinks into hypnosis. It’s music designed to pull dancers inward, less about release, more about the slow, steady locking of body and mind. The Reef Stage EP is set for release on September 30th.@ilayruniwww.instagram.com/ilayruni/Write up by @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
Sundays are for…All of us. As each year passes, I appreciate more and more the mental haven that has developed. A space to relax, a platform to create. Focusing on moods and sounds that we listen to recover and unwind. Deeply personal, and a sonic window into the soul, the variety of guest mixes, and emotions covers the spectrum. I am so humbled to be able to release each and every entry.This September marks 6 years of Sundays. The musical journey continues, and evolves, so too does the visual. Simple, and abstract. Bridging the digital and analog realms, the art continues to change and match energy. A sine wave in all its glory, nothing less, nothing more. A comfort in its identity, a comfort in its simplicity.Enjoy the mix, this is my yearly ‘moment’ if you will, to let the hair down, and indulge.Much love and admiration,mixed and compiled with love by hue | @huedjseptember 2025follow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
Berlin’s Hyphen collective has wasted no time carving out its place in the techno underground. Less than a year in and already on their fifth release, the label continues to thrive on collaboration and open-ended experimentation rather than fixed formulas. Before the Shift EP brings together Hyphen’s own vauna with two fast-rising Italian artists: TOMO, co-founder of Florence’s DE RIO, and Milan-based Peppe Amore (NR, Planet Rhythm). This is a five-track release that embraces intensity without tipping into excess, channeling a strain of contemporary techno that feels both relentless and precise, designed to hit hard while still leaving room for nuance."Return to Form" builds on a foundation of massive kicks and tribal percussion that slowly liquefy into something more fluid, threaded with spiraling synth lines and ghostly vocal fragments. The result feels both primal and precise. It's like a transmission from a futuristic jungle made for sweat-drenched hours in the middle of the night, and another reminder that Hyphen knows how to keep its trajectory sharp. Before the Shift is out on September 26th.https://soundcloud.com/vaunamusichttps://www.instagram.com/vaunamusic/ https://www.instagram.com/hyphen_berlin/http://soundcloud.com/hyphen-berlinWrite up by @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
Predawn Records is a beacon for all deep techno lovers out there, and Stuttgart is truly lucky to have them. They've built an incredible community in the South of Germany with their intimate shows, collaborations, artist spotlights, and experimentation. No strangers to us here at Delayed, Predawn is made up of Tama, Nils Edte & Laima Adelaide. Founded in 2021, the label has been a home base for the 3 artists & their musical output. An interesting tidbit you may not know about them is the way they're so deeply rooted in classical music. Marko, Nils and Laima all have a background in the genre which explains the precise yet tactile & delicate nature of the releases on the label.For TAMA's (Marko Mrdja) latest release, "Arc," he’s carrying the torch for the Predawn sound. A quick look at his page will give you insight into his other projects, including playing the piano for the Soundrise Quartet. Across all his work, Marko's passion and musical learnings shine through, reflecting a commitment to composing, producing, and playing music that simply makes him happy. We all crave different things throughout the day, and across seasons, and Marko’s projects embody that.Blueish-silver. A gentle pulse, propelled by subtle, distant soundscapes and everyday sounds captured. What they are I’m not sure, but they are certainly comforting and reassuring. The song is smooth—there are no sudden jolts or surprises, just a finely crafted track. Listen to it, then listen to it again, and again, it only gets better, as the details and new sounds reveal themselves with every listen. This track and the rest of the EP including a remix from Rambadu will be available to purchase via their Bandcamp page digitally and on vinyl on the 10th October.@markomrdjahttps://www.instagram.com/markomrdja_@predawnrecordshttps://www.instagram.com/predawn_records/Write up by @danpeplowFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
Perpendicular Festival unravels as one continuous thread, bending and reforming across days and nights until the sense of time itself begins to dissolve. From Friday afternoon to the first pale hints of Monday light, the forest carries a constant flux of sound, shifting from floor-focused intensity to moments of near-weightless suspension. The turning point comes when the moon hovers over the DJ booth on the main stage and the current draws inward: La Cabaña, a wooden cabin hidden among the pines, becomes the gathering place for music at its most unguarded and exploratory. Here, reality softens, and performances take the shape of dreams.It was in these hours between Friday and Saturday that STBL opened the portal. His set arrived quietly, almost imperceptibly, whispers in the air, static drifting like dust in moonlight. Slowly, harmonies began to shimmer and unfold, shadowed by pads that seemed to stretch toward some unreachable horizon. Beneath it all, a subtle rumble grew, reassuring, like company long imagined finally appearing at your side. Nothing felt rushed; each sound seemed to wait for the moment it was meant to reveal itself. The power of the set lies in its restraint, in the way it suspended time and quietly rewrote it in the minds of those present. A moment like this resists fading; it lingers, carried forward as a story that will be told again and again.https://soundcloud.com/stable-mechanismhttps://www.instagram.com/stbl/https://soundcloud.com/espacio-perpendicularWrite up by @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
It’s 3am, the club is full to its brim, both in energy and in bodies. The air is ripe with a palpable tension, there needs to be a spark to ignite the night remaining. Enter OTON, and a return to Alliance with his sequel to ‘New Forms of Silence’. Minimal is that match stick, instantaneously converting friction to heat, and laying the groundwork for what is to come. Akin to a drum machine workout, the tracks are devoid of fluff, and focus on the essentials. Winding melodies and a tight percussion line keep things moving while ramping the energy, higher and higher. We’d be remiss, in not mentioning the rest of the album though, OTON showcases his taste as ideas coalesce through a variety of other genres, all tastefully done. Brussels-based Alliance Club was first introduced to the scene about 5 years ago, as a platform for founder OTON's own releases. It has since gone through a natural evolution, welcoming releases from other artists, and ultimately morphing into a collective and party series within the vibrant Brussels community. With residencies at a variety of Belgium’s clubs and festivals as well as on local radio station microwave, Alliance has nicely established its place in the scene over the past few years. This year, OTON presents his music in the form of an audiovisual live set in collaboration with a visual artist Onohno, something to experience if the opportunity presents itself. New Forms of Silence 2, will be released on the 26th of September.@otonWrite up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
The first thing you notice in Beau Beaumont’s Delayed with mix isn’t aggression or volume, but control. Each layer slots into place with a clarity that leaves no room for drift. It’s techno in high resolution - grooves stretched to their limit, shifts measured with care, a ride that never collapses under its own weight.That clarity comes from experience. Years spent running one of the UK’s most forward-thinking parties, building an independent label Meine Nacht, and diving into modular synthesis have sharpened Beau’s ear for pacing and design. Her work ranges from NTS residencies to commissions for Nike and the WDR Studio for Electronic Music. Still, it’s this same multidisciplinary edge that you hear here, surgical mixing, grooves that never stagnate, and a sense of movement that feels both human and machine. This is propulsion without fatigue: a set built to carry you, wherever you are.https://soundcloud.com/beausoundarthttps://www.instagram.com/beausoundartWrite up by @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
Over the last few years, we’ve had the utmost pleasure in highlighting an incredible music scene rooted across the ocean in Barcelona. Like the living, breathing entity that it is, the tendrils reach far and wide, connecting artists, and music lovers from around the world. Deep, rhythmic, pulsing low ends, frenetic half-time snares. Spiraling melodies and hypnotic elements all combine into an incredible mixture that gives life to all. At the heart of this thriving community and our focus for today is one of its musical stewards, Patrick Russell. A pure professional, always providing discerning sets from behind the decks, today we listen to him in a different fashion as he provides a rare remix that embodies these sounds and times.Forth-coming on Argentinian label Danza Nativa, Ancient Apparition is a four tracker by co-founder Kyntral that oozes rich bass lines and snappy percussion. Each song unfolds ever so smoothly, stretching its muscles and taking up space. Patrick Russell’s ‘Phantom’ remix of the title track moves us down a darker path, with horn-like synths and undulating bass lines that give tension and an energetic kick, a taste of what is to come later…Ancient Apparition will be out on September 29th, both on digital and vinyl.@kyntral@ptrckrssllWrite up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
Rain falls here in Brooklyn as time marches on and the changing of seasons creeps ever so closer. The long days of summer wane, fall will soon be upon us. With the shift in seasons, comes a move inside, and for many, a period of recovery from a hectic summer season. Rosario Piscosquito aka Vidění’s forthcoming album ‘Ocean Resonance’ on Ambient Matter marks their second release on the Indefinite Pitch sub-label and the first of this year. From cover to cover, Piscosquito expertly guides listeners through a variety of musical realms, maintaining a certain gravitas and crafting a coherent story from beatless to beat, and back again, with each track building on what came before. Refracted Light, our premiere for today sits early in the album but gives a teaser to what lies ahead. Intricate drum patterns and tribalistic bongos scattered throughout lay the foundation for ethereal pads and subtle melodies that continue to unfold for the duration of the track.Refracted Light and the rest of Vidění’s Ocean Resonance release will be out on September 15th, and we highly recommend checking out the rest of the album.@videni@ambient-matterWrite up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
Spanning multiple decades, the friendship between Markus Guentner and Joachim Spieth started with contributions to Kompakt’s Pop Ambient series in 2001. At the time, neither could anticipate how the future or their respective artistic paths would unfold. Over the years, both have been a guiding presence throughout their careers as they delve farther and farther into ambient and beyond. Striving for only the utmost quality in productions and expression of self.Coalescing in 2023, the pair combined their musical talents for their first album together titled, ‘Overlay’ released on Spieth’s label, Affin. Deep, rhythmic, and bathed in texture, it marked the next musical evolution and a harbinger of what is to come.Enter ‘Conversion’. The seven tracker builds upon themes established in ‘Overlay’, a melding of layered textures and encompassing percussion, giving a sense of weight, heavy with emotion. Our premiere for today, Vortex smoothly enters the mind, with comforting pads, and a subtle uplifting notion. The warmth from the drone-like melodies is echoed into the steady muted kicks that provide an energetic boost to the track.Vortex, and in turn ‘Conversion’ will be released on October 3rd via Affin.@guentner_spiethWrite up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
With the summer festival season drifting into memory, it feels like the right moment to linger on one of the most thoughtfully shaped events in recent years. The Mostra Festival unfolded over the Easter weekend across two Barcelona locations, and what set it apart wasn’t just the programming, but the curation - a balance of trust, patience, and precision. The first two days leaned toward the ambient and the experimental, tipping into rhythm as the nights wore on. Yet the real magic of that opening stretch lay in the beatless hours. Friday in particular offered a moment that still reverberates among Mostra regulars and beyond: Robert Henke’s performance of Dust. If there is any place in the world designed for such a work, Mostra provided the perfect frame. For one afternoon, Henke held the crowd in complete attention and reverence, something essential for any artist, but especially for one whose work is as delicate, shifting, and expansive as Dust.For many of us, Robert Henke, Monolake to longtime listeners, has been a constant presence in the background of our musical lives. His records shaped taste, his performances redefined how electronic music could be experienced live, and his role as co-creator of Ableton changed the very tools we use to make and share sound. Few artists can claim such a dual legacy: architect of both the music and the machinery. Whether in moments of joy or frustration, whether in the studio or on the dancefloor, it’s impossible to imagine modern electronic music without his fingerprints on it. Henke embodies the link between technological innovation and artistic expression, and his influence runs deeper than most of us can trace.Dust is perhaps the clearest expression of that link. Powered by a custom granular synthesis engine, it reduces sound to particles, field recordings, analog tones, machine hiss, bells, and waves, then disperses them into clouds that evolve in real time. The result is less like a composition and more like a living organism: fragile, unpredictable, always becoming something new. At Mostra, this unfolding took shape in late afternoon, after Patrick Russell’s set had sharpened the air with its own restraint. Henke stepped in with a 360-degree surround system that transformed the floor of Fabra i Coats into a resonant body. The sound was cosmic and liquid, grainy and immense, stretching outward until it seemed to erase the horizon. Every surface in the space shimmered with detail, as if the air itself had been tuned. What made it remarkable was how fragile it all felt. Nothing was forced; every movement seemed to arise on its own, like dust caught in late-afternoon sunlight. Yet the immersion was total. People surrendered, leaning into the space as if trying to hold onto something that could never be held. For that hour, Mostra wasn’t a festival anymore. It was a room of people floating together in a world made entirely of sound, knowing it would never happen in quite the same way again.https://soundcloud.com/monolakehttps://www.instagram.com/studio.robert.henke/www.mostra.barcelonawww.instagram.com/mostrabcn/@mostrabcnWrite up by @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
The launch of a label always says something about its ambitions. Some choose the visibility of a compilation, gathering tracks and names to cast a wide net. Others decide to start with a statement, trusting the strength of a single project to carry their voice.After more than a decade and a half of shaping Hungary’s underground through the Technokunst nights, the collective has made it clear which route they prefer. Their new imprint arrives with Split Series 01, a release that pairs two artists whose work already resonates deeply across the international techno circuit: Rrose and Luigi Tozzi. The format is simple but loaded, an original track from each, and remixes exchanged between them, creating a conversation that moves across styles and tempos but holds a singular focus on depth. For a first record, it reads less as an introduction and more as a confident extension of what Technokunst have always done: presenting electronic music with clarity, conviction, and longevity in mind.Today we are thrilled to premiere Rrose's rework of Tozzi's "Insecta". Compared to Luigi's original, Rrose's rework creates a relatively vacant, suspenseful space for the first 30 seconds before striking with full venom. Harrowing layers and ominous atmospheres linger in the background. The escalation is immense. The drama cools, and things settle. The drum returns, but it’s more muted, it’s softer. The drive remains.Available on the Technokunst website on vinyl on September 19th and released digitally in October.@rrose1921 https://www.instagram.com/rrose1921@luigitozzihttps://www.instagram.com/luigi.tozzi.music@technokunsthttps://www.instagram.com/technokunstWrite up by @gilleswasserman & @danpeplowFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
There’s always that one set at Perpendicular that people talk about after. In 2024, it was Fhionbarra’s closer, a set that caught everyone's attention and ultimately became the reference point for the entire edition. Coming into this year, expectations were quietly building. The line-up mixed familiar crews with newer names from across Europe and beyond, with London showing up particularly strong. That blend is what makes Perpendicular tick: the local warmth, the international cross-pollination, and the sense that discovery is just as important as reunion.This time, the slot was different. Instead of a final word, Fhionbarra was handed Saturday late afternoon, when the forest is still glowing with light and people are searching for a balance between motion and pause. He leaned into it with a set built on breaks and halftime, cut clean and calibrated for the hour. No force, no shortcuts, just patience, groove, and trust in the moment.The effect was undeniable. The crowd didn’t need intensity, they needed direction, and he gave it to them. The floor moved easily, the heat started to fade, and suddenly the afternoon was marked by that rare kind of clarity when the right DJ meets the right context. Fhionbarra proved last year wasn’t a one-off, he can shape a moment on his own terms, no matter the slot.https://soundcloud.com/fhionnbarrahttps://www.instagram.com/fhionbarra_@espacio-perpendicularWrite up by: @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
Twisting and turning, like a live animal dancing through the air, Helium (Live Extract) gives a sense of movement and looseness that only a live performance can give. The flexing of voices and the undulating elements drifting and snapping back into form keep the ears attention locked in. Initially the track starts off fairly simple with a few textures and drum patterns, drawing listeners in, before adding in a spiraling melody and marching kick drums that ratchet the energy up. As the track progresses, various melodic synths are sprinkled throughout that add a sense of unpredictability.Forthcoming on the Dutch imprint, Wabi Sabi Audio, Elisa Batti & Jorge Fons have come together for the next release, titled Yugen (幽玄). Focusing on creating a variety of rhythms, the two artists have finished off a 5 track release, that ranges from Ambient, to disjointed club time stompers.Expect to see the Yugen released on August 22nd, via Bandcamp.@elisa-battiwww.instagram.com/elisa_batti_/@jorgefonswww.instagram.com/jorgefons_music/@wabisabi_aiwww.instagram.com/wabisabi__aiWrite up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
Hagva began in 2022 as a shared experiment between CP1 and Not Mass, artists closely tied to Milan’s Evolvere collective and Stagno Records. What started as a dialogue has grown into a practice of dismantling rhythm and building it back stronger, threading techno through post-club ruptures, industrial grit, and deep ambient undertones. From Evolvere’s underground nights in Milan to RSO Berlin, Module CPH, Buka Milano, Tempovìa, and Zurich’s D.A.S., their sets have carried the same uncompromising edge: a refusal to settle into comfort, constantly pulling dancers into new terrain.The mix we present today is a three-hour live recording from their set at D.A.S. in Zürich earlier this year, capturing Hagva in full flight. There’s no easing in, it’s a straight leap onto a fast-moving train, powered by relentless percussion and groove, with sudden swerves that snap the floor awake. Heavy, urgent, and unpredictable yet always precise, it’s a reminder that energy doesn’t need excess to be overwhelming. For those hearing them for the first time, it’s the perfect entry point; for those who already know, it’s another layer of proof. With their debut EP arriving September 15 on Stagno Records, this set stands as a clear statement of intent.https://soundcloud.com/cipppohttps://soundcloud.com/serpen7https://soundcloud.com/stagno-recordshttps://www.instagram.com/hagva_________________________/https://www.instagram.com/stagnorecords/Write up by @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc

Some DJs treat genre boundaries like walls; others see them as doors. Craig Gonzalez belongs firmly to the latter camp. A staple of Detroit’s underground and a resident DJ at Paxahau’s Third Thursday monthly, he has long been drawn to what happens when techno’s linear propulsion collides with the restless syncopation of drum & bass. That liminal space, the “grey area” between the two, has become one of the most fertile playgrounds in electronic music over the past decade, and Gonzalez shows why. In this mix, recorded as the opening set on the Movement main stage, he handles tempo as a fluid variable, shifting gears without friction and letting polyrhythms function as the connective tissue. It’s the kind of approach that resists the obvious peak and instead builds a topology of groove, a groove that bends but doesn’t break, carrying dancers across time signatures almost without them noticing. And while opening a stage that would later host Deepchord, Sama’ Abdulhadi, Octave One, and Jeff Mills could be seen as a daunting warm-up role, Gonzalez treats it less as preparation and more as architecture. Across ninety minutes, he layers patterns with patience, calibrating intensity so that tension rises and releases without tipping into spectacle. The set moves like a conversation that shifts from whispers to declarations, never overstated but always persuasive. It’s a reminder that flow is not just sequencing but narrative logic, and that true mastery lies not in domination of a dancefloor but in shaping the conditions for everything that comes after.@craig-gonzalezhttp://instagram.com/cgonz313Write up by @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media: @itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
There’s a special kind of trust when a festival makes someone a resident. For Les Chaos Ambiants, that someone is Lynne. We’ve partnered with this boutique French festival for the second year, sharing the sounds and stories behind their lakeside weekend in the wooded hills of Sommant. The festival thrives on curation that feels personal, lineups that move like chapters in a book, sound systems tuned to catch every detail, and a setting where the air itself seems to carry the low-end.Lynne embodies that approach. Originally from Japan and now based in London, she’s built a reputation on mixing low-lit atmospheres with rhythm patterns that shift just as you think you’ve caught them. Her triumphant comeback to our podcast series finds her opening the spectrum: warmer tones, space between the beats, a subtle dub pulse, and even flickers of jazz phrasing. Yet the structural backbone remains hers, breaks that fold time and pacing that keeps you just ahead of the next turn. It’s not a departure, it's more like a widening of the frame, perfectly in sync with the spirit of Les Chaos Ambiants.https://soundcloud.com/lynne-tokyohttps://www.instagram.com/lynne_tokyo/https://soundcloud.com/leschaosambiantshttps://www.instagram.com/leschaosambiants/Follow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
Closing sets come with built-in pressure. But at this year’s Perpendicular Festival, Saturday wrapped up not with spectacle, but with style. Valencia-based DJ and producer Facundo, a standout discovery from the city’s ever-surprising scene, took control of the final stretch with a set that was patient, fluid, and full of character. It moved with intent, keeping the energy alive without ever pushing too hard. The kind of set that made you forget the time, anchored in rhythm and shaped by subtle shifts. A groove that spoke softly but hit deep.Facundo’s approach to the closing slot was a slow reveal. He opened with broken, syncopated patterns before sliding seamlessly into a tight four-to-the-floor pulse. The tension built with restraint - dark, shadowy techno moments came and went, but the release was never forced. This was a set that traded hype for nuance, showmanship for control. Polyrhythmic elegance in the woods.https://soundcloud.com/facundosdhttps://www.instagram.com/facundo.sd/https://soundcloud.com/espacio-perpendicularWrite up by: @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
Raucous rumblings and club centered grooves are the name of the proverbial game today as we premiere the latest from English imprint, Crescent London. The four tracker adeptly displays a wide array of auditory scope from a duo known as Abstract man. Ranging from the half-time thematic opening through to a thumping finish, it’s a well rounded release that works in many situations.Flux, the title track of the release, brings the energy up a notch with steady percussion and bouncing saw-like synths that seem to shift and move through the beginning of the tune. Progressing on, a dark growl starts to emerge providing an aggressive edge that persists and compliments an atonal siren element.Flux and the rest of Abstract Man’s release will be released on August 1st.@abstract_manwww.instagram.com/abstractman_london/@crescent-londonwww.instagram.com/crescent.london/Write up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
Each August, something unusual happens on the quiet Åland Islands: a geodesic dome in the middle of the forest becomes a portal. For two days, the Kokong Festival transforms the Dome at Stallhagen into a living instrument, home to ambient drift, off-grid techno, experimental electronics, and the kind of late-night moments that only occur when sound, light, and space align perfectly. Now in its fourth edition, Kokong has outgrown its status as a local curiosity. It’s a full-bodied experience, complete with live sets, spatial sound design, visual installations, movement performances, and workshops, crafted by Kulturföreningen Ström, the nonprofit organization that has built Åland’s most refined sound system and a wider platform for electronic and electroacoustic arts. This year’s edition (August 1 to 2) will feature around thirty acts in total, mixing top-tier Nordic talent with handpicked international guests, all performing just a few feet from the crowd.“This summer’s edition will be the biggest yet,” says Johan Grönlund, Chair of Kulturföreningen Ström. “With more international acts, a handcrafted high-end sound system, and greater investments in the visual experience.” Among the headliners are Icelandic dub techno veteran Exos, Swedish modular explorer Andreas Tilliander, and Norwegian legend Mental Overdrive, joined by artists from Austria, the Nordics, and a strong showing of Åland’s own community of producers, DJs, and tinkerers. But Kokong’s ethos extends well beyond the stage. Free hands-on workshops with synth makers give festival-goers and local youth a chance to build, tweak, and discover. A performance by the Urgrund collective will blend movement, sound, and storytelling into a cohesive experience that defies easy categorization. Kokong moves at its own pace, quietly growing into one of the Nordic region’s most thoughtfully curated electronic festivals.As part of this feature, we’re thrilled to share an exclusive preview from the upcoming KOKONG Festival Vol.1 Sampler, a compilation capturing the spirit of the festival through sound. The track is a collaboration between Swedish electronic mainstay Andreas Tilliander and Croatian-Swedish jazz innovator Goran Kajfeš. Built on a steady, hypnotic groove, the piece lets Tilliander’s textured synth work stretch out like smoke, while Kajfeš’s trumpet drifts in and out like a distant signal. It’s deep, psychedelic, and quietly ecstatic, exactly the kind of alchemy that feels right at home under the Dome’s glimmering ceiling.https://www.kokong.axhttps://www.instagram.com/kokongfestival/https://soundcloud.com/tillianderhttps://www.instagram.com/tilliander/Write up by @gilleswasseramanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
The haze of Paral·lel festival has barely lifted, but we’re rewinding to another moment worth lingering on, February in Granada, at the Moonback club. There, under the warm glow of the Extramostra banner, Mostra linked up with the Klub Collective for a night that balanced local soul with an international touch. The lineup reads like a heads-only dream: Timnah, Antonio Vázquez, Refracted, and a solid core of Klub Collective residents including Fran Acosta, Kaizen, and Utopian. The kind of night that reminded us why the first slot matters more than most people admit. It’s the architectural role: shaping the night’s flow from zero.Utopian did just that. His set unfolds like a slow exhale, dub-laced ambient that creeps, swells, and gradually transforms into chugging, low-slung techno hypnosis. It’s a patient climb: syncopated, restrained, precise. Not a single cheap move, just deep focus and floor logic, the kind that sets the table without stealing the meal. But make no mistake, this was a statement. A warm-up that didn’t just support the night, but elevated it.@utopian_djwww.instagram.com/isidrobolivar_utopianWrite up by: @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc

Our Belgian connection runs deep, built on shared moments, mutual admiration, and a steady stream of talent that never seems to dry up. The latest to surface is Ben Kamal: Brussels-based DJ, promoter, and soon-to-be label boss. In recent years, Ben has been a staple in clubs like C12, Fuse, and Funke, as well as festivals like Paradise City and Horst. He’s carved out a sound that’s both precise and personal, equal parts deep, minimal, and melancholic. As a resident of Lola Haro’s Small Steps series and curator of nights at bis.club, he’s been steadily shaping a mood, a narrative, a space. And with the first release on his new label ov guidance about to drop, featuring a.brehme and signall kommt (aka z@p), that space is about to get even more defined.Listening to the mix Ben made for us feels like watching dusk fold into night in slow motion. The arc is patient, but the details are razor-sharp: fluttering hats, muted basslines, strange shadows between the kick and the silence. There’s movement, but it’s not linear. It loops, it lingers, it pulls you inward. It’s not about big moments, it’s about micro-decisions that add up to something more enduring. Call it dusk-lake energy. Call it perfect for the other side.https://soundcloud.com/benkamalhttps://www.instagram.com/benkamal__/Write up by: @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
For more than a decade, Yard One have played the long game, releasing smart, often under-the-radar records that quietly land in the bags of selectors who value depth over hype. With Neuroglow EP, the duo circle back to their home base, Tact Recordings, not with nostalgia but with the same grounded confidence that’s defined their output since the beginning. “Synapse,” our premiere for today, captures that ethos in full: precise, atmospheric, and unafraid to sit in its own mood without forcing a payoff.“Synapse” feels like a mood caught mid-transition, weightless but restless, like something unfolding in slow motion under strobe lights. There’s a glassy clarity to the pads, stretched just wide enough to pull the track into dream territory, but underneath it all, that modular sequence keeps things twitching, alert. And then come the strings, not ornamental, but emotional, like a voice without words. In “Synapse” Yard One are sketching atmosphere with intent. The track lingers in your memory because it hits that strange, rare note between melancholy and movement.‘Neuroglow’ EP has already gotten great feedback from DJs worldwide and will be available for purchase on July 23.@yard-one-music@tact-recordingswww.instagram.com/yardonemusic/ Write up by: @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc

Much like a being gliding through a dimly lit forest, smoothly shifting between the trees, and branches. Never once announcing themselves, or giving undue attention to itself until necessary. The aptly named Hunter builds and builds tension ever so higher before giving way in the final moments where all eyes shine on the scene ahead. Through deft use of chimes, flutes and guttural melodic growls, the atmosphere is kept to that of an untamed land, fraught with excitement and the unknown. With all elements elevated by the choice of a half-time tempo, adding rhythm and a delightful sense of energy.Though the moniker may be new, the artists behind it are no stranger to the scene or Delayed. Vand and !nertia have joined forces under Vanertia for a four track release titled Kronicles, forthcoming as the latest chapter on the lovely Alpenglühen imprint. Both artists' sounds are represented well here, with Vand bringing his signature dubbed out vibes, that compliment, and are expounded on by !nertia’s more atmospheric and hypnotic moods.Be on the lookout for Vanertia’s ‘Kronicles’ release on vinyl via Alpenglühen on July 18th.@vandmusicwww.instagram.com/vandtor@nertia-1www.instagram.com/inertia.sonicartsWrite up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
Sometimes music becomes a place. For Caldera, that place was Jevvers, a music studio hidden in a Brighton grove, where leaves rustled against the glass and machines glowed in the dim light.For nearly a decade, Jevvers was a refuge, a test lab, a temple. Now, Caldera is closing the door on that chapter. His new EP, Last Transmissions From Jevvers, out soon on Polish label DANS, is both a love letter and a farewell. Five tracks, recorded between 2018 and 2024, soaked in the hush and warmth of his private world. You can almost smell the damp earth and hear the rain outside the window. Caldera’s never been one for sticking to rules. His music slips between styles - dub techno, broken beats, and ambient textures, all filtered through his own quiet intensity. On Last Transmissions From Jevvers, that chameleon quality shines.Today, we are happy to shine the light on “Rhymo.” Here, Caldera joins forces with queniv, one of the core members of Amsterdam’s De Lichting collective, and definitely not a stranger to Delayed. The two built “Rhymo” under pandemic skies, trading stems and sketches over the internet while the world held its breath. No shared studio sessions, no late-night takeout runs, just distant screens and a shared instinct for sound.The result is a track that feels alive and weightless. “Rhymo” rides a supple, broken groove, punctuated by crisp percussion that flickers like sunlight on water. Pads swell and recede, carrying warmth and subtle melancholy. Melodic threads drift in and out, leaving space to breathe. It’s music for private moments and sunrise dance floors alike, introspective yet gently propulsive.Last Transmissions From Jevvers arrives July 18. https://soundcloud.com/caldera-calderahttps://soundcloud.com/quenivhttps://soundcloud.com/dans-recordhttps://www.instagram.com/caldera.em.es/https://www.instagram.com/queniv_/https://www.instagram.com/dans_recs/Follow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
Amsterdam’s Ratherlost crew has spent the past few years perfecting the art of the marathon rave. Their home base is Lofi, a cavernous warehouse where sound, light, and visuals fuse into long-haul journeys that stretch well past the 18-hour mark. But epic runtimes mean nothing without the right hands at the controls, and Ratherlost has proven it knows how to curate, pace, and execute like pros.Lofi’s two-floor setup allows for shifting moods: daylight hours wander through deep, dubby techno, slowly morphing into faster, syncopated rhythms as night tightens its grip. Pacing is everything in a space like this. And when it comes to the craft of pacing, few do it better than Bas Dobbelaer.Bas is one of our favorite DJs for a reason. He understands that a warm-up set is an architecture rather than just background noise. It shapes the room, sets the tone, and welcomes dancers into the story. The mix we’re thrilled to share today was recorded live at Ratherlost’s Easter Sunday session at Lofi, where Bas shared the bill with artists like Aaron J, Na Nich & Vera Logdanidi, Aurora Halal, DVS1, upsammy, Occa, Agonis, Dasha Rush, Seb H, and Oscar Mulero. Quite the roster.In the face of that stacked lineup, Bas delivered a masterclass in restraint and elegance. His three-hour set unfolds like a novel, tracing dub techno’s DNA across the past two decades. The vibe is timeless, spacious, and beautifully measured, a perfect example of how to warm up a warehouse without blowing the doors off too soon.This is precisely the kind of DJing we live for: subtle yet commanding, hypnotic yet full of life. Clear your next 180 minutes. Plug in. And get a little Ratherlost yourself.https://soundcloud.com/bas-dobbelaerhttps://soundcloud.com/ratherlosthttps://www.instagram.com/bas.dobbelaerhttps://www.instagram.com/ratherlost_Write up by @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
Distorted Waves VA 001 is the third release on Nadia Struiwigh’s label and marks a shift in scale and scope. Where previous outings were solo projects, this compilation opens the doors to a wider network of artists, ten contributors working from a single custom sample pack created by Struiwigh herself. The source material leans into sci-fi ambient territory: synthetic textures, artificial environments, hints of imagined machinery. But rather than dictating direction, the pack acts as a set of raw ingredients, meant to be stretched, broken down, and reassembled freely. Among the contributors is Simone Scardino, aka CONCEPTUAL, whose work has always reflected a hybrid mindset. As founder of Berlin’s Friendship Collective and a producer with both club energy and a visual arts sensibility, Scardino brings a sense of control and clarity to even the most abstract material.“And If All Goes Well” pulls you in with a tightly woven dual arpeggio pattern that feels more alive than programmed, like a swarm of drones shifting in formation, constantly on the edge of unraveling. The synths trace fast, repeating lines but never feel locked in; they shimmer, stutter, and orbit each other in a kind of digital murmuration. Scardino leans into the sci-fi tone of Struiwigh’s sample pack from the first bar, but doesn’t overcook it. Instead, he lets the synthetic material breathe, shaping it through restraint and precision. A distorted rhythmic layer surfaces underneath, not aggressive, but coarse enough to give the track a pulse you feel in your chest more than your feet. It’s a stripped but spacious composition, built less for the club than for immersion. Played in isolation, it holds its own. But in the dark, with no distractions, it expands, becoming something vast, strange, and fully transportive.Distorted Waves VA 001 is set to release on July 3.https://soundcloud.com/conceptual2020https://www.instagram.com/conceptual.2020/https://soundcloud.com/nadiastruiwighhttps://distortedwaves.bandcamp.comFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
In a world hooked on instant likes and endless scrolls, where festival lineups are often built for clicks more than for ears, there’s still a place that pushes all that noise into the background. It sits somewhere off the grid, far from signal bars and push notifications, a pocket of the world where music still feels sacred.You drive for hours into the Spanish mainland, trading highways for dusty roads and the smell of pine. And then you arrive at this gathering that’s not quite a festival. “Celebration” fits better. A celebration of music, connection, good energy and the rare joy of forgetting who’s “headlining” and just letting the sound carry you wherever it wants.It’s friends, and friends of friends. People whose names you might see on record sleeves or festival flyers, but here they’re just part of the crowd. No green rooms, no special wristbands. No one’s counting bar sales or stressing over ticket numbers. It’s purely about the music, the real reason most of us fell in love with this scene in the first place.From Friday afternoon to a very late Sunday, the music rolls non-stop. Daytime means dancing upright under blue skies. By night, things stretch into horizontal territory in a magical cabaña, where ambient and experimental sets ripple through the dark. Every DJ seems to arrive knowing precisely what belongs in their timeslot, crafting an arc so seamless you start questioning whether sleep is even worth it. Monday comes for you looking like your parachute didn’t open, but the grin on your face says otherwise. And the moment you leave, you’re already asking yourself how you’re supposed to wait a whole year to do it again.This hidden corner of paradise is called Perpendicular Festival, or Perpen, for short, a brainchild of the crew behind Espacio Perpendicular in Madrid. This year was Delayed’s first time joining the adventure, and we came back determined to share pieces of what made it unforgettable. Over the next months, we’ll be rolling out sets that capture different moods and times of the weekend, hoping to transmit even a fraction of the magic in those woods.We’re starting with a burst of energy: Madrid’s best-kept secret, Rachael, who took over on Sunday night. By then, the dancefloor was running on adrenaline alone, and as darkness settled in, she shifted things into high gear. After Sciama’s mind-bending trip, Rachael stepped up and commanded the space, unleashing a set where syncopated beats, UK breaks, and halftime, all collided in perfect chaos. The pine trees caught every echo. The crowd surged with new life. It was one of those sets that reminds you why underground music scenes will always survive and why you stay awake just a few hours longer even when your legs are begging for mercy.We’re proud to open this year's Delayed x Perpendicular series with her set. Tune in, and get a taste of why it instantly felt like home.https://soundcloud.com/rachael_umhttps://www.instagram.com/rachael_um_/https://soundcloud.com/espacio-perpendicularhttps://www.instagram.com/espacio.perpendicularWrite up by: @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
In what feels like yet another full circle moment for us all at Delayed, and another chapter in a story started a few years ago via this Korean connection; we’re happy to present our latest premiere from one of our own, Griff aka Aspetuck and his track, ‘Sunny Conditions Will Continue For The Rest Of The Day’ off his forthcoming album, ‘Today is Tomorrow’. Marking the 38th release on the storied Oslated imprint, Griff’s signature warm, analog sound shines bright as he crafts an emotional journey through a diverse set of 10 tracks.The aptly named ‘Sunny Conditions Will Continue For The Rest Of The Day’ starts off simply with a sighing melody and textured sounds giving structure that soon give way to an infectious kick and drum pattern. Almost immediately the groove sets in and never leaves, complemented by an undulating element that gives a sense of playfulness to the track overlaid with a soaring set of melodies.Sunny Conditions, and in turn the rest of ‘Today Is Tomorrow’ will be released on the 30th of June via Oslated.@aspetuckwww.instagram.com/aspetuckmusic/@oslatedWriteup by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
My Sunday morning involves strong black coffee on an empty stomach, followed by one massive pancake to share. Both energizing and grounding. Ideally I try to set a different tone than other mornings; less of a grind, more human.I tried to let this mix convey this feeling, and hopefully use it myself to be in the morning and not work so hard; The music is more emotionally layered and pulls me a bit more into different directions than what I'd listen to when starting work.Words by @tensen-parktrack list:Lloyd Green - Venus MoonYlia, Tete Leal - Ame AgariBruce Langhorne - Arch LeavesErnest Hood - Bedroom of the Absent ChildG.S.

Italian duo Orion are back, consistently offering their trademark warmth. This release on Dutch label Far Blue is another testament to their talent and deep love for what they do, and a perfect third release for this community-driven label. The EP will be available to purchase in vinyl and digital formats at the end of April.The opening track on the EP, Her, evokes a whimsical, warm, and delicate aura of calm introspection, the track builds with hollow, immersive percussive elements, creating a neat and uplifting groove. Its slow pace and cosmic touch deliver a reassuring sense of well-being, that feeling where you stop for a second, and realise everything is going to be alright. Their laid-back personalities mirror the calm, collected nature of their music.This track portrays just one corner of their repertoire, as the rest of the EP explores the range of these two talented Italian producers.

We took a minute. Summer break, slow mode, call it what you want. We’re back. Still cruising at 33, but this one hits like it’s cut at 45.Korbeat steps in with a mix that doesn’t waste a second. Colombian-born, Brooklyn-based, and clearly not here to fill space. Sixty-three minutes of pulsing, precision-engineered techno that moves like a night train, no brakes, no letup. Opening track? Sciama’s Intercede on OODA. It sets the tone, and the pressure just builds from there.This isn’t some throwaway club hour but a lean, locked-in, and fully dialed mix. No fluff. No filler. Just groove and grit. Transitions snap like circuit breakers, clean, sudden, right on cue.Korbeat co-runs Bajo Constructo out of Armenia, Quindío in Colombia, and was a resident of Seis Records. Lately, he’s been surfacing on compilations from QEONE and Aneelhi Rec, steadily staking ground in Brooklyn’s underground. File under: fuel. For your run, your night, or anything that needs a jolt to the chest.https://soundcloud.com/krb_thttps://www.instagram.com/krbt__Write up by @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
French imprint Melifera Records is back with their latest offering being a diverse release centered around Biocym and his track, Wadis. The five track EP includes interpretations by Piante Vive, Sauvage Dub Trio, Arto, and Biocym himself with a deep vision rework.As the name implies, Arto’s remix or ‘Fractured dub’ is exactly that. A well executed halftime chugger that breaks apart the original and reassembles it in a twisted manner that keeps things fresh and gets the head nodding. Ever-shifting drum lines and siren-like melodies keep the atmosphere heavy while maintaining a core groove that is ever so loved here at Delayed.Wadis Variations will be released on May 30th via Melifera Records.@biocym@artos_eleven@melifera_recordswww.instagram.com/r_biocym/www.instagram.com/artoseleven/www.instagram.com/meliferarecords/Write up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
This week we’re in the Bay Area, where Endzeit has quietly become one of the most thoughtful techno series on the West Coast. Over the past few years, they’ve brought in artists who feel closely aligned with our extended niche community, people who approach sound with care, intention, and a sense of forward movement. We’re glad to host Torsion, the founders of the Endzeit, whose "Delayed with..." mix captures the clarity and pressure that runs through everything they do.Torsion doesn’t move in straight lines. Their work circles, strains, folds in on itself, always dragging tension to the surface. Formerly known as Sentient, the duo has spent years refining a sound that resists resolution. Their recent track Misgivings, released on Semantica’s Petricor compilation, lands like a pressure system, low-end submerged just enough to make your footing uncertain. There’s no payoff, no center, just a dense psychoacoustic atmosphere that holds you in place and dares you to find shape in it.Torsion's mix for Delayed stays on-brand in the best way: tight, physical, with a kind of controlled momentum that hits first in the chest, then catches up to your head. It opens with force, big room sound, no wasted space, but somewhere around the midpoint, the gears slip. Syncopation edges in, structure blurs. It’s not a derailment, more like a detour through darker, looser terrain. By the end, the groove snaps back, but the trip has already shifted. What starts as propulsion ends in something more hypnotic. It’s techno made with discipline and intent. No spectacle, no filler, just impact.https://soundcloud.com/sentientechnohttps://www.instagram.com/___torsion/Write up by @gilleswassermanTracklist:Fadi Mohem – SoluteSciahri & CONCEPTION – Ritmo Oscuro 1Pyramidal Decode – Optical NoiseMODE_1 – CascadeTorsion – Blunt (unreleased)Talismann – YawAltinbas – SereneseStef Mendesidis – AquatonStef Mendesidis – Pain KillerAugusto Taito – Inner EngineeringAltinbas – Horizon GlowCravo – FunanaMarcal – SteadyTalismann – FryctionNørbak – DanoArthur Robert – FrostbiteLevzon – False HopeValentino Mora – PortalRhyw – Aversion to MemoryTorsion – MisgivingsForest Drive West – EscapeSeph – GeomancerReeko – Urmah 1Sciahri – Dance of the KnivesViels, Pyramidal Decode – Privazione IndividualeAbstract Division – Don’t Fall Asleep (Rrose Remix)Neel – MotoTorsion – Kind (unreleased)Vil – The ReactionKike Pravda – NoiserLen Faki – Shri Yantra (Luke Slater Deep Heat Remix)Sentient – GladeSchacke – A Future Not MaterializedFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
The relationship between the visual and auditory creative realms is a close one. Equally as expressive, and open to experimentation, both seem to elevate the other when done tastefully and in combination. It comes to no surprise then, that our premiere for today is from a collaboration between Javier Marimon, and Daniel[i], as JD. A great producer outright, Javier Marimon’s visual contributions range far and wide in our scene, through various label logos, club flyers, album artworks and more, his touch is undeniable, and recognizable. Equally so for his German counterpart on the release, as Daniel[i]'s productions are near and dear to all our hearts.Continuing a structure of other prior collaborations and releases on Off Tangent, focused around shortened production periods and an emphasis on raw sessions, Javier and Daniel[i]’s time together has coalesced into the seventh release on Javier’s imprint. Titled Segments I and II, the two tracker sits well within the wheelhouse of both artists, shedding light on what is possible from a few meetings and a knack for when something is finished.Segment II arrives precisely when it means to. Each element unfolds at its own pace, maintaining tension, movement, keeping things interesting however deftly so. Not overt, but subtle. Textures, and off kilter bass lines intermix with muted melodies and cast a shadow over all.Segments I and II will be released on the 28th of May on Off Tangent Recs.@javiermarimon@danieli_whs@offtangentrecswww.instagram.com/javiermrmn/www.instagram.com/_danieldanieli_www.instagram.com/offtstudio/Write up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc

Federsen’s Alt Dub label is back with its third ‘Artist Series’ VA, and it’s another gem for the heads who like their dub techno deep and unbothered. This edition lands with contributions from cv313, Taction, Hidden Sequence, and Fletcher, each orbiting around Federsen’s signature ethos: texture, depth, and restraint with purpose. Fletcher’s “A Distant Place” opens the B-side like a sunbeam through a dusty window. It’s soft, but it cuts. There’s a pulse here, but it drifts. Think of a long drive with nowhere to be, or a trail that leads somewhere quiet. The piano glints like light on water, while the groove rolls steady beneath, holding space without crowding it. It’s introspective but never cold, made for golden hour and places without ceilings. The third edition of ‘Artist Series’ is available for pre-order before it releases on May 26.https://soundcloud.com/fletchersoundhttps://www.instagram.com/fletcher_socialcurrency/https://soundcloud.com/altdubhttps://www.instagram.com/altdubrecords/https://altdub.bandcamp.comFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
The sky overcast, the air a bit chilly and flecked with an occasional rain drop. Spring is looking a bit subdued at the moment here in Brooklyn. All being said, there is still an energetic feeling when walking through the city and seeing the evening come alive with the comings and goings of a million people.Like a perfect soundtrack to a night time ride through New York, Margaux Gazur’s forth-coming LP on Smallville gives feelings of introspection albeit with a bit of a twist. Through deft use of softer melodic pads, and interesting percussive patterns, Margaux keeps things fresh and lends an edge to a familiar auditory locale.Su Phu, coming at C1 on the double vinyl release (digital as well, so don’t worry there) starts as a dark, rolling affair, with crunching textured sounds panning around rhythmic bass lines that persist throughout. As the track progresses, bright melodies come into play to lighten the mood and even contribute to a dynamic, ever shifting groove that constantly keeps your attention pinned.Margaux Gazur’s Blurred Memories LP will be released out into the world on May 23rd.@margauxgazur@smallville-recordswww.instagram.com/margauxgazurwww.instagram.com/smallville_records/Write up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
This week we land in Valencia and spend a moment with Ilayruni, a 19-year-old with an ear for rhythm and space, still shaping his sound but already showing a feel for nuance. Earlier this year, he released Mountain Flyers EP on Sungate, a label with which we’ve worked closely over the years, known for its focus on various shades of techno and a taste for forward-thinking sounds.His hour-long set is made entirely from his own material, and it leans into the shadows. It starts slow and murky, with a dense, eerie atmosphere that unfolds with intent. The progression is subtle but steady, each track steps a little deeper into the fog, each rhythm adds a sharper edge. There’s tension in the way it builds, but no drama.There’s a clear affection for polyrhythms and off-center grooves, and a careful balance between control and drift. The textures shift, the pace grows, but the mood stays intact, claustrophobic at times, even hypnotic. It’s not polished to perfection, and that’s part of the charm. You hear someone exploring, reaching, figuring it out in real time. A young producer following instinct, not trends. We’re curious where that path leads.https://soundcloud.com/ilayrunihttps://www.instagram.com/ilayruni/Write up by @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
Sarah Wreath is building something solid. After turning heads with her contribution to Sandwell District’s End Beginnings, she steps forward with 光と影 (Hikari to Kage), a new EP on a promising Dutch label Wabi Sabi Audio Imprint. It’s a compact, carefully crafted release featuring two originals accompanied by remixes from Pianeti Sintetici, HI-C, and label founder Jorge Fons. If you’re into vinyl and care about detail, this one is for the shelf.The title track opens with restraint: low-end pressure, drawn-out pads, and a pulse that feels lived-in. Over time, acid stabs and spacey synths slip in, not to explode, but to shift the atmosphere. There’s a suggestion of movement in the title, but the track doesn’t chase light or fall into darkness. It stays in the grey, in the tension. It’s subtle, textural, and confident in its stillness. 光と影 (Hikari to Kage) releases June 6 via Wabi Sabi’s Bandcamp.https://soundcloud.com/sarahwreathhttps://soundcloud.com/wabisabi_aihttps://www.instagram.com/sarahhwreath/https://www.instagram.com/wabisabi__aiFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
At Delayed, consistency and vision matter. That’s why we’re always happy to shine a light on those who keep pushing forward with purpose. Berlin-based label Art Bei Ton is marking its seventh anniversary with a standout compilation titled Faded Mystical Journey, a cohesive 8-track release that moves from shadowy, atmospheric depths into rich, hypnotic territory.The compilation features contributions from longtime friends of our platform, familiar names, and some exciting discoveries. Today’s premiere comes from a friend of Delayed: the Japanese sound architect Makiko Iwaki, known to many as Menou when performing live, and Iwamaki behind the decks.Here, she appears in her Menou guise with Singularity, the opening track on the release. It’s a meditative, slow-burning drone that sets the tone beautifully. Singularity is a slow exhale, a layered drone that feels still, but never static. It builds with grace, tension, and care. Menou creates a space that’s both calming and charged, a paradox that works effortlessly. Faded Mystical Journey drops May 16 via Art Bei Ton’s Bandcamp. Happy seventh, Art Bei Ton, here’s to the next chapter.https://soundcloud.com/makiko-iwakihttps://soundcloud.com/art-bei-tonwww.instagram.com/iwakimakiko/https://www.instagram.com/art_bei_ton/Follow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
There’s a space between life and death where memory, emotion, and rhythm blur into something unspoken, that’s where Vanta begins. “Between Life and Death”, his debut album on IO Records, draws from personal upheaval, pairing stark introspection with glimmers of defiance. The project navigates the tension between collapse and healing, with tracks like “Intrusive Thoughts” and “Void” oscillating between vulnerability and strength. It’s a record that doesn’t offer resolution, only presence, a sonic companion for those walking their own edge.Opening with “Dissociative Drift”, Vanta wastes no time setting the emotional temperature. The track feels like falling into a dream you half-remember, bleepy percussion echoing like distant signals, submerged beneath fog-thick drones and viscous synth lines. It’s less a song than a state of mind, evoking the sensation of floating through murky water, unsure if you’re surfacing or sinking. A slow, syncopated pulse guides you, not forward, but inward.“Between Life and Death” arrives on May 13 via IO Records.

Atrice make music like they’re reverse-engineering a dream from memory - glitchy, precise, physical. The Swiss-Colombian duo operate somewhere between academic discipline and raw, system-shaking instinct. Their background in sound art and theory is like the scaffolding they climb to throw punches from unexpected angles. Every release, whether on Ilian Tape, TraTraTrax or their own Miras imprint, feels like a study in tension: synthetic vs organic, chaos vs control, deep listening vs full-body response. Their sound demands submission.This “Delayed with…” mix is a live recording from H0l0 in NYC during a fabulous Final Passage night that felt like a pressure cooker ready to blow. Atrice went straight for the circuitry, sending pulses through a room thick with fog and anticipation. Over two hours, they bent tempo and space, stitching breakbeat mutations, sub-bass architecture, and brain-bending percussive patterns into something that felt both unstable and surgically tight. It’s not a set you glide through but one that pulls you under, spins you around, and spits you out somewhere unfamiliar but fully alive. If you weren’t there, this is as close as you’ll get to the chaos. For now.https://soundcloud.com/atricemirashttps://www.instagram.com/atrice____/https://atrice.bandcamp.comhttps://www.instagram.com/finalpassage/Write up by @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
Obscure shapes rise in the distance, a haze of smoke obscures all. Movements seem slow and time is but a figment of the imagination. The focus turns inward as a sense of calmness encompasses, letting the mind relax. Overhead the sky is black, but filled with stars, with brief flashes of light as celestial bodies march across the heavenly vista.This mental imagery springs to mind when listening through Pierre Nesi aka Owl’s forthcoming LP, titled, ‘Fragments of Darkness’ on the storied Korean imprint, Huinali Recordings. A wonderful pairing, and an instant listen whenever either name pops up. Fragments of Darkness will be Owl’s second release, following 2022’s ‘Forest Shadow’. Coincidentally not, another must listen if you’ve not heard already.Lanterns Illuminate The Infinite Space comes as the final, 7th track to the musical odyssey that Owl has crafted. Beautiful, soft pads lead off and establish a warm atmospheric vibe. The light to the darker moments in the release, the counter that Pierre is so adept at crafting. Ebbing and flowing, the track expands and soon a prominent melody emerges, accented by flashes of synths that give structure and development. Fragments of Darkness will be released on May 12th, off of Huinali Recordings, on all platforms.@owlfromdeepspace@huinalidubwww.instagram.com/pete_owl/Write up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
The internet gave us wild ways to connect, but it still can’t beat the real thing - meeting people in real life. A few months ago, we found ourselves in our beloved Barn deep in the Catskills, surrounded by trees, friends, and a four-day blur of heavy tunes and strange magic. That’s where we met Verena, aka Ena B. We connected through mutual friends and a shared pull toward deeper, dubbier, stranger sounds, and just like that, a new link was made.Her “Delayed with…” mix is a slow-burner in the best way. It moves with intention, breaky, heady, and atmospheric, full of space and subtle pressure. There’s a patience to her selections, a confidence in the flow. Ena B may be new to the fold, but she speaks the language fluently. Expect more transmissions soon.

Hailing from Sydney, Australia, artist Pannotia, under the Pure Space label, is releasing a five-track EP titled "Cell." This EP will be available on Bandcamp from 2nd May and immediately captivates with its own twang. This sound exists within a multitude of spaces, specifically in a realm called ‘Biozone’ in which this track is titled.The music evokes a feeling of being recharged, discovering movements and forms that have always existed within but are now imbued with cosmic influence. Bionic and poetic, it offers an undeniably sexy slow groove that holds a special place on the dance floor, built upon bass-heavy foundations and a seductive, relaxed trance – a track capable of transporting us in any direction as it draws to a close.@pannotia@purespacefmwww.instagram.com/purespacefm/Write up by @danpeplowFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedwww.itsdelayed.comwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayed/linktr.ee/delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayed
Octo Åeterna is a producer and DJ deeply embedded in the darker edges of electronic music. With roots in South America's underground, he's spent years fine-tuning a sonic identity that draws on mathematical structures, probability, and organic chaos. His work, solo and through his Technologia Organica label, explores textured psychedelia, often grounded in nature's strange logic. Releases on Danza Nativa and his imprint showcase a careful but adventurous mind, balancing abstract sound design with dancefloor weight. Whether curating Noctambula nights or crafting vinyl releases, Octo's aesthetic is precise, immersive, and alive with intent.His "Delayed with…" mix is a live recording from Berlin's legendary Tresor that happened in June 2023, and it plays like a transmission from a parallel biome. It begins in murky waters, ambient textures that ripple and curl like oil on a dark tide, then gradually locks into a loose-limbed, halftime pulse. Octo leans into polyrhythmic percussion and deep, sticky synths, shifting between grooves with surgical control. As the set evolves, four-to-the-floor rhythms rise like tectonic plates, grinding under a thick atmosphere. By the end, he cracks the structure open with broken beats and UK-leaning breaks, closing on a haunting and strangely euphoric note. It's a mix that mutates without losing shape, like watching an alien ecosystem reorganize in real time.https://soundcloud.com/octoaeternahttps://www.instagram.com/octoaeternahttps://technologiaorganica.bandcamp.comwrite up by @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
Annuled Music is back with another gem, this time introducing Aawadh - a new alias from French producer and Cielo Records boss JC Laurent. Known for his deep, hypnotic take on techno, JC flips the script on Dyadica, an 8-track debut album that trades 4/4 for halftime pressure and lands somewhere in the 80/85 BPM zone. It’s packed with groove, weight, and that sweet spot between heady and physical. There’s room for ambient detours (Ignys), tribal techno nods (Nyteris), and and straight-up pressure with Oscillia, but the core vibe? Forward-thinking halftime drum & bass with real depth.We’re premiering the second track from the album, Alkymis, which together with the opener Evolys kicks things off and sets the whole vibe. Eerie and energised, with a kind of ritualistic swing to it. The drums snap, the synths melt, and everything flows just right. There’s a UK breaks feel underneath, but it’s doing its own thing. Big system or headphones, club or commute, it hits. One of those tracks that makes the world move a little faster. Dyadica drops May 2 via Annuled Music.Write by @gilleswassermanSoundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/aawadhSoundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/annulled_musicInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/aawadh/Bandcamp: https://annulledmusic.bandcamp.com
Long time friends Big City Bill and Neil E meet for a split EP of groovy driving house dubs on Naarm’s Spincycle Records. The BBV is laid out with kicking drums and lightly tapping percussions. A washed out pad drifts in and out sprinkling magic over listeners while an organ like bassline propels. It’s a slightly cheeky groove that makes you want to kick off your shoes and watch the sun go down with your friends. The programming is catchy and yet still kind of sneaks up, unfolding as the snappy hats and clap are revealed. Neil E’s contribution to Spincycle fits well next to their first release, but it wouldn’t surprise me if it was also found in the record bags of discerning tech or progressive selectors.On the flipside is Big City Bill’s, ‘Dry Rub’ a wiggly fun number that is bound to keep summer dancefloors bounding.‘Fantastic Thoughts EP’ is out on April 28th.

This mix has been brewing in my head for a while now.. An inkling of it first started to pop up back in October while we were at our biannual Delayed gathering in the mountains of upstate New York. I played a set with a dear friend on the Sunday morning there - cozy & hopeful music from various corners of our collections that don't get played very often but are set aside for special moments. My favorite kind of music.. It was one of the most memorable sets I've played & brought up a ton of emotions & memories from past experiences hearing some of those songs. Memories from my wedding, memories of my brother, memories from times living in Los Angeles when Sundays were all about lounging around all day in the sunshine after nights of dancing into the early hours of the morning. We laughed, cried, danced, ate lunch, all over the course of the morning into the early afternoon. It laid the foundation for how I wanted to approach this mix for Zach.Sundays for me have always been a day of healing - mentally, physically, emotionally. It's a day to seek inner peace & a day to be reminded of everything you have to be grateful for in spite of anything else. I recorded this mix on a rainy Saturday earlier this month, channeling all of those memories & feelings, with my dog by my feet while my wife & daughter wandered about the house, making beaded bracelets & doing various arts & crafts.From me to you, a warm hug & the promise of spring.Words by @aspetuckTrack list:Jefre Cantu-Ledesma - The Milky SeaFelbm - cycli infini (excerpt)Neu! - ISIGoesun - Peel Apart (What Was Once Sensible)Paul Kalkbrenner - D-ZugDubtractor - M.

Musical paths twist and turn throughout life, one never knows where the next connection can come from. Like minded people, loving the same artform or creative form of expression makes for many a ‘friend at first sight’. After meeting Luca a few years ago at Mostra, we’ve had the opportunity to spend plenty of time dancing and chatting together, enjoying our favorite musical expression. As head of his E2-E8 label, the London based DJ and curator has crafted his own path with prior releases from fellow Delayed friends Avsluta, and hems to name a few.To mark E2-E8’s first release of 2025, the responsibility goes to a founder of the Unknown Species Collective event and podcast series, Rado aka Naturalisten and his debut titled Forms. The 6 track release, including a remix by Forest Drive West, blends a few different musical styles. Acid, ambient, deep techno, breaks, all coming forth in a nicely varied release.Against the Tide is a floaty number, with muted, upbeat melodies providing some sense of groove and a nice counter to the darker side of the release. These tones are complimented by a steady stream of shakers and hi-hats that deftly hit in the background but don’t overwhelm the mix of panned textures and occasional glittery synth.Expect Forms to be out on the 25th of April in record stores, and on Bandcamp.@unknownspecies@e2-e8www.instagram.com/e2e8records/Write up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
https://www.delayed.nyc/delayed-blog/label-spotlight-gifkikkerFor the first of a new series highlighting record labels around the world, we bring you GIFKIKKER - a Brussels-based collective of friends birthed just after the pandemic. Their sound, imagery & adherence to a high level of quality piqued my interest right away when I stumbled upon their soundcloud a couple of months ago. There’s something very fresh about GIFKIKKER - their sound blurs the lines between high octane, driving techno & the more psychedelic, introspective & hypnotic side of things. And that logo.. it’s so compelling & describes their sound & ethos so well. They’ve made a big effort to foster an open-minded experimentalism while still holding onto a consistent mood & tone throughout their releases & their focus on lesser-known talent made them stand out to me right away, akin to a tide pool full of exciting new discoveries. In addition to being a label, they put on events in Belgium & also have a regular mix series ‘Dissection’ which features 20+ mind-bending sets from members of the collective & friends from the Brussels scene & beyond. Today we’re premiering a track off of their next release from Berlin-based Ryft who has had a couple of GIFKIKKER appearances over the years. Enjoy ‘Resonator Rythms’ below as well as our interview with the GIFKIKKER collective about how it all came together, their take on the scene in Belgium at the moment & their friendship with Ryft.

fl_000 has been shaping dancefloors for over a decade, but his story begins on the other side—as a raver immersed in Berlin’s legendary club scene. Drawn in by the pulse of the music, the architecture, and the community, he found a new rhythm that reshaped his life. His sets reflect that origin: raw yet refined, rooted in vinyl and built on a deep understanding of groove. With releases on rauh, Turnland, and his own label just stretchin’, as well as a steady hand in organizing events in Hanover, fl_000 keeps the spirit of his early days alive while carving out new sonic paths.For his "Delayed with…" contribution, fl_000 delivers a mix that drifts effortlessly through the deeper, warmer edges of electronic music. It opens in a haze of dubby echoes and jazz-tinged vocals before shifting into a rich blend of character-heavy tracks. The pace is patient. There are no sharp turns, just a sense of movement, steady and fluid, like a thought you can’t quite pin down. It’s the kind of mix that mirrors spring’s unpredictable moods, fluid, textured, and full of subtle surprises. https://soundcloud.com/just_fl_000https://www.instagram.com/just_fl_000/Follow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
ACCENTAPE returns with its ninth release, continuing the series’ mission to connect artistic worlds through sound—sometimes by highlighting similarities, other times by leaning into contrast. This time, it’s a meeting in the middle. ACCENTAPE009 is a delicate convergence of tones, textures, and moods—chromatic, soft-edged, and deeply felt. The release pairs London-based Avsluta—known for her organic, atmospheric productions and deeply curated selections behind the decks—with Parisian producer and visual artist Adhémar, whose work channels color and form into weightless, meditative sound. Together, they offer a slow-blooming album that feels perfectly in tune with the season’s quiet shifts: tender light, budding branches, and long, patient days.Our premiere today is “Black Mamba”—a track that doesn’t bite, but glides. It opens with a haunting spoken-word passage, almost ceremonial in tone, a whisper of myth and power that gradually dissolves into an airy ambient wash. The stillness stretches and morphs, giving way to a restrained tribal rhythm that pulses beneath the surface, guiding the track forward with hypnotic subtlety. Just when it seems to vanish into the ether, melancholic strings emerge, soft but striking—another layer of identity for the Black Mamba, both queenly and ghostlike. It’s a slow spell, not a strike.ACCENTAPE009 arrives April 21 on cassette and digital.https://soundcloud.com/avslutahttps://soundcloud.com/accentsrecordshttps://www.instagram.com/avsluta_/www.instagram.com/accentsrecords/Write up by @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc

BLNDFLD is part of a new wave of artists giving deep techno a more textured, introspective edge. Hailing from Tbilisi and co-running Spira Records, he’s been quietly building a reputation through releases on labels like Bahn, Circular Limited, and Indefinite Pitch. His sound is patient and immersive, built on subtle shifts, rich atmospheres, and grooves that pull you in rather than push. Whether he’s behind the decks at Bassiani or Laut in Barcelona, there’s a consistent thread: a focus on flow, mood, and storytelling that runs deeper than just the tracklist.His mix for "Delayed with…" fits that ethos perfectly. It’s smooth, layered, and full of movement, balancing broken tribal rhythms with dubby textures and just enough melody to keep things bright. There’s a kind of quiet confidence in how it unfolds, like it knows exactly where it’s going without rushing to get there. It feels made for those first warm days of spring - windows down, sun out, maybe a rooftop gathering in full swing. If you’re looking for a mix that hits that sweet spot between deep listening and casual vibe, this one’s got you covered.https://soundcloud.com/blndfldhttps://www.instagram.com/blindfold_____/https://blindfld.bandcamp.comFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
Toki Fuko captivates listeners with deep soundscapes and melancholic melodies. Insomnia is part of the four-track EP Phantom Scripts, set for release on 10th April on The Hague located spclnch, available in both digital and vinyl formats on Bandcamp.A hypnotic blend of soundscapes and field recordings, Insomnia navigates us through an eerie atmosphere. An initial sense of unease, but an underlying current of reassurance lingers throughout. The track transports you to a dimly lit room where fingers glide effortlessly across piano keys, merging electronic textures with classical composition. Midway, a voice sample emerges, adding depth to the narrative and drawing you further into a world explored through sound.Insomnia evokes the feeling of creating messages from the void and the unknown.@tokifukowww.instagram.com/tokifuko@spclnchwww.instagram.com/spclnch/Write up by @danpeplowFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
Cafe de la Jungle builds worlds through sound—dense, hypnotic, and alive with movement. Every track is a pulse, a shifting landscape where rhythm and texture collide, guided by Tomasz K Zajac’s instinct for the unexpected. His productions blur the line between the organic and the electronic, drawing from primal grooves, shamanic energy, and cutting-edge sound design. On Ginso, his latest release, he sharpens his vision—six tracks that twist, swell, and shapeshift in unpredictable ways. Out on Polygonia’s always reliable QEONE imprint, the record thrives in a space where rhythm is fluid, structure is loose, and movement is inevitable.“Flying Nimbus” drifts in like a hallucination—light on its feet but rich in detail, its melody curling and dissolving like smoke. Layers of percussion pulse beneath the surface, shifting subtly, never settling. It moves with an effortless momentum, floating somewhere between the organic and the otherworldly, pulling the listener deeper into Ginso’s shape-shifting terrain. This is just the first step, a soft invitation before the record expands, twists, and dives into wilder territories.Out on April 8 via QEONE. @cafe-de-la-jungle@qeonewww.instagram.com/cafe_de_la_jungle/www.instagram.com/qeone.rec/Follow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
With Mostra Festival just over a week away, we’re wrapping up our editorial run with a conversation and a mix from Peter Van Hoesen. His work has always sat slightly outside the frame: techno, ambient, experimental, but never quite typical of any. Instead of chasing momentum, he’s built a practice around attention to sound, to context, and to the possibilities of performance.At Mostra, he’ll step into a rare DJ role, playing a drum & bass set shaped by years of quietly following the genre’s more experimental edges. In this exchange with Griff and Zach, he reflects on what still draws him to that sound, how his relationship to playing out has shifted, and why intention matters more than ever. The mix he’s shared alongside the interview follows that same line — precise, considered, and wide open. A final entry before we gather next Thursday at Fabra i Coats in Barcelona.The interview: https://www.delayed.nyc/delayed-blog/artist-of-the-moment-peter-van-hoesen-delayed-x-mostrahttps://soundcloud.com/petervanhoesenhttps://www.instagram.com/petervanhoesenhttps://www.patreon.com/petervanhoesenhttps://petervanhoesen.comhttps://www.mostra.barcelona https://www.instagram.com/mostrabcn/https://soundcloud.com/mostrabcnFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
Causa, the latest EP from Stuttgart-based Predawn Records, and label co-founder Nils Edte, explores motion, force, and matter. The EP is available for pre-order in digital and vinyl formats, with shipping and release on 7th April.Continuatio, living up to its name, embodies motion through constant evolution. A soft, pulse-like kick drum initiates the track, joined by hypnotic sirens that persist throughout. These sirens serve as a consistent guide, a recurring hook to which the track always returns.Nils Edte arranges familiar and alien-like elements, crafting a distinct thematic atmosphere. The track transitions to its conclusion, with a deep, groove-laden baseline that brings the journey to a satisfying close.Another classic from Nils and Predawn.https://soundcloud.com/edte-1https://soundcloud.com/predawnrecordshttps://www.instagram.com/nils_edte/https://www.instagram.com/predawn_records/Write up by @danpeplowFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
Forever evolving and progressing her sounds, Nadia Struiwigh’s ear and passion for coaxing out the best from her array of studio gear always results in tracks with a certain je ne sais quoi. Through emotionally charged ambient releases like Pax Aurora on Nous’klaer, or Birds of Paradise on Dekmantel, her artistic freedom is a key factor that provides a freshness to her music.Like the musical yin and yang, from Ambient to the dancefloor, Nadia’s adeptness at creating special tracks doesn’t end at the beatless border. Her live sets are stories of twisting techno, you know the kind that makes you shake your head at how well all the elements combine into one cohesive track. In line with this is her forthcoming release on the storied British imprint, Blueprint Records. Titled X1 Shift, the four tracker joins Voxis Ohlun (2024) as her second, masterclass in hardware driven techno.Glimmerfall arrives immediately with warm waves of undulating synths bouncing and shifting in the background. Punchy kicks and a breakish pattern keep things moving along, while Nadia’s arrangement and various element choices elevate the track even more as a testament to her sequencing skills. We’ll certainly be hearing this out in many a set, and club, rightfully so.Glimmerfall and the rest of Nadia’s X1 Shift release will be out on the 4th of April.@nadiastruiwigh@jamesruskin-blueprintwww.instagram.com/nadiastruiwigh/Write up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
We’re two weeks away from Mostra 2025. Final prep is in full swing, and over here at Delayed, we’re marking the moment with a special one. A two-hour recording from ABSIS—Mostra resident, local legend, and someone who’s been quietly shaping his own corner of the scene for years.This one’s from Gare Porto, aka the Portuguese tunnel—one of those rare venues where the setting does half the work. ABSIS played alongside Nico and André Cascais for one of the recent Extramostra nights, and what came out of it is something else. A deep, locked-in ride that doesn’t bother with the usual build-and-drop patterns. It’s not about reaching some peak moment—it’s about staying in the zone and letting things unfold naturally. This set is pure spiral techno—deep, hypnotic, and tunnel-vision tight. It moves with that kind of quiet intensity that sneaks up on you. No flash, no filler. Just steady pressure and perfectly measured pacing. Like being pulled along some underground Iberian rail line, eyes closed, body moving on instinct. ABSIS keeps full control from start to finish, guiding the whole thing with an ease that only comes from time and taste.You can feel the room in the recording—the acoustics of the tunnel, the crowd syncing up, that low-end weight that holds everything together. It’s a full-on experience, even in playback. There’s something about this set that sticks with you. The way it just moves—no big drama, no gimmicks, just pure direction and control. It’s the kind of mix that makes you wish you were there… and also kind of convinces you that you were.ABSIS doesn’t overstate anything. He doesn’t have to. He locks into a mood and stays there, pulling everyone in with him. And if this set from Gare Porto is any sign of what’s coming—then that closing slot at Vall d’Hebron is going to be serious.Hold tight. Mostra’s almost here.https://soundcloud.com/absismusichttps://soundcloud.com/mostrabcnhttps://www.instagram.com/absis_music/https://www.instagram.com/mostrabcn/write up by @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
I recorded this mix sitting on the carpet of my partner and I's new home, pulling out some old records and enjoying the comfort of our new living room which now also houses my custom green monitors. Sundays to me have a naturally relaxed and positive vibe and it's the same day that I throw my event 'Park Dub'. The music at Park Dub is generally a mixture of electronic dub tracks and more rootsy dub reggae but I usually tell the DJ's playing that 'anything with enough reverb and delay is fine', haha. I tried to capture the spirit of Park Dub in the mix.Tracklist:Shebuzz, Akmuo and Heavenchord - Seashell Dreams (Grounded Mix)Babe Roots - World Struggle (Ambient Dub)Ghost Dubs - Thin LineCofaxx - Move 2Dubmonger - ArchiveTriangle - Mantra DubDJ Sports - Untitled (B2 NH6)Full Bloom - Giesing UnderwaterAkko - Rosh SataanFrenk Dublin - ErangelRasmus Hedlund - Verners FunkV.I.V.E.K - Galactic DubCousin - Overtime Dub (Feat.

Time flies—what started as a platform to spotlight music we love has reached an incredible milestone: our 500th premiere. Over the years, we've witnessed trends emerge, evolve, and transform into something entirely new. Within these 500 premieres, we've featured a kaleidoscope of styles and genres, but at the heart of it all, the music has always been deep, introspective, and original—an authentic reflection of the artists who create it.We're thrilled to present Ojalá by Dutch artist Love Over Entropy for this special occasion. Taken from the long-awaited album "To Sit Quietly Where Everything Is Moving Fast," set to be released via Something Happening Somewhere, this track radiates optimism and quiet determination—qualities that feel perfectly encapsulated in its title.Ojalá unfolds with gentle confidence, its uplifting keys and delicate arpeggiator lines moving together like a conversation that flows without effort. There's an understated elegance here—a lightness that never veers into excess. Each element breathes in unison, giving the track a natural, organic momentum.The word ojalá, with its roots in hope and possibility, feels like a guiding principle for the music. It's as if Love Over Entropy has captured that sentiment and translated it into sound: a wish carried forward, subtle but powerful.With this milestone premiere, we're reminded of why we started this platform: to share moments like this, where music connects us not just to each other but to something more profound.Here's to the next 500 premieres—and to Ojalá, a track that reminds us of the beauty in looking forward.https://soundcloud.com/love-over-entropyhttps://www.instagram.com/love.over.entropy/https://soundcloud.com/sohasohttps://www.instagram.com/sohaso/Write up by @gilleswasserman Follow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
Ten years of On Board Music—it speaks for itself. We’ve been collaborating with them almost since the beginning, watching them grow steadily while staying true to their values—thoughtful curation, long-term relationships, and a real commitment to the artists they work with. Reaching a decade in this industry without compromising is something worth celebrating.For their anniversary compilation, they brought together a group of artists who reflect that spirit. Among them is Jin Synth, whose track Self Navigation adds a spacious, introspective layer to the release. We first met Jin at Mostra Festival a few years ago and have been following her work since—whether through her releases, her live performances, or the way she approaches sound as something deeply hands-on. She also contributed a guest mix to our series, offering another glimpse into her precise, layered style.In this conversation with Theresa Bäumel, Jin shares more about her background in sound art, her process of building custom instruments, and how she stays grounded in a constantly shifting scene.Read the interview: https://www.delayed.nyc/delayed-blog/artist-of-the-moment-jin-synthhttps://www.jinsynth.comhttps://soundcloud.com/jinsynthhttps://www.instagram.com/jinsynth/Buy the "On Board 10" compilation: https://onboardmusic.bandcamp.com/album/on-board-10Follow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
Sarah Wreath has spent years moving through different corners of electronic music, sharpening her craft in deliberate yet effortless ways. Ambient, sound baths, live sets, techno, halftime—she doesn’t just dabble; she inhabits these spaces fully, shaping them with a deep understanding of sound and rhythm. Her range is what sets her apart, allowing her to move between intimate, meditative settings and full-throttle dance floors without missing a step.Last year was a big one. Her debut album on The Bunker NY hit the right people in the right way, opening doors that led to a standout set at The Bunker party in Brooklyn alongside Nobu, Patrick Russell, and Doltz, a tour through Japan, and a string of upcoming EPs—including one for the legendary Sandwell District, set to drop in just a few weeks.This time last year, we featured Sarah in our Sundays Are For… series with a beautifully haunting set. Today, she flips the perspective. Her Delayed with… mix isn’t just about atmosphere—it’s about movement. The sound is weighty but fluid, shifting between tightly wound rhythms and wide-open space. There’s a physicality to it, driven by thick, rolling low-end and textures that hover between sharp and submerged. It’s techno built for full immersion, the kind that keeps pulling you in without ever demanding too much.Sarah Wreath is one of those artists who make techno feel limitless. And if this mix is any indication, she’s only just getting started.https://soundcloud.com/sarahwreathhttps://www.instagram.com/sarahhwreathPhoto by: https://www.instagram.com/kenneth.scott1/Text by @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc

This week’s Delayed with… mix shines a light on the Milanese crew behind Techno Space Bar and one of their resident DJs, DJ Church. Techno Space Bar is a cozy party that’s brought in some familiar names from our orbit, like Orion, Alex Albrecht, and Noc:turne, alongside a solid lineup of local talent. They’ve got some interesting plans in the works, so if you’re into deep, thoughtful electronic music, give them a follow.For this mix, DJ Church delivers a warm and atmospheric trip through a deep and melodic house. It’s the kind of set that works best in the daytime - relaxed, immersive, and just what you need when the world feels a little too heavy. An hour to unplug, breathe, and float. And as one of the tracks in the mix reminds us—do easy.DJ Church shared a few words about the mix:“I recorded this mix alone at home, drinking some nice red wine, cradled by melancholy and hope. Thinking about all the beautiful memories of special people I’ve met at parties around the world—smiling, dancing, sharing everything, the highs and the lows.These moments, even the challenging ones, make life worth it. Thanks to all my friends who share their lives with me on the dancefloor. Hope we can all dance together again—maybe in Milan at one of our cozy Techno Space Bar nights, or wherever there’s light in the world. And if there isn’t any, we’ll bring it.”https://soundcloud.com/technospacebarhttps://www.instagram.com/__t_s_b__/Follow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
As a new gate opens, the rite continues; our reach into fourth worlds and mystic imagination deepens. The Golden Triangle marks the first chapter of a two-part solo album by Siamese Twins co-founder Sunju Hargun—the first solo release on his label. Two years in the making, this deeply personal work reflects his extensive experimentation, collaboration, and grounding within an ethereal, imaginary universe.Rooted percussion forms the foundation of these tales, with haunting patterns that evoke visions of the past—visions untethered from conventional structures. The album incorporates instruments inspired by the rhythms and grooves of Phlaeng Luk Thung, while capturing the pulse of everyday life in the kingdom of Siam.Recorded entirely in Bangkok at TMM Studios and staying true to the label's spirit of cross-cultural interaction, the album also features contributions from visiting artists. The Golden Triangle is a personal cartography reflecting Sunju's roots, exploring new routes and means of communication toward the cosmic unknowns surrounding him.Today’s premiere is the mesmerizing title track, The Golden Triangle, a reflection of Sunju’s distinctive style—bridging diverse worlds to craft a realm entirely his own. The track unfolds with a meditative calm, drawing listeners into a serene space where time seems to dissolve. It’s a portal to higher consciousness, where every sound floats effortlessly, and the weight of reality slips away.The release also features two outstanding collaborations with GiGi FM and Konduku. The Golden Triangle is set for release on March 1. https://soundcloud.com/sunjuhargunhttps://www.instagram.com/sunjuhargunFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
'A Good Moment' pure and clear,A melody that draws us near.A pause, a spark, a fleeting ray,Where inspiration leads the way’Fitting words to accompany Rene Lorenzo’s forthcoming album on Kizen Records, titled ‘A Good Moment’. From start to finish, the Spaniard occupies a space that is hard to define. One that demands attention yet, gives space. Intricate, yet soothing and comforting on the ear. A wonderful combination that catches you in its embrace, ever so subtly.Delirium Tremens, coming in as track 8 on the 10 track album evokes feelings of security, the exhale to a long inhale. The muted kicks, and melody provide a base from which to build. Nothing is overt, no element tries to stray from that base. Each and every voice meant to compliment, and coexist.Rene Lorenzo’s album, ‘A Good Moment’ will be released out into the world on February 28th.@rene-lorenzo-djwww.instagram.com/renelorenzo_official/@kizenrecordswww.instagram.com/kizenrecords/Write up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
The kind of pairing we cherish at Delayed—Enrica Falqui and Claudio PRC, two esteemed artists from their shared homeland of Sardinia, joining forces on Swiss label Adam’s Bite. Lucid Dreams EP is the refined result of their collaboration. Available in digital and vinyl formats via Bandcamp from February 28th.Receptor opens the B-side with a hypnotic, cinematic character, driven by a dynamic bass groove. It’s a love story between minimal, house, and techno, crafted with a distinct sense of identity. Balanced tension runs throughout, with stripped-down drums underpinning the track’s deep, tenacious energy.You can hear both of their personalities woven into the sound with understated heat.

Will You, founder of Oleeva Records and Bristol-based producer and DJ, is one of the few UK artists carving out something distinct within this space of house music. Is It 2 Late is a standout from his latest EP on Berlin-based Stólar, featuring top-tier collaborations with Lb Honne and Orion, and is set for release on vinyl and digital formats on 28 February.The track carries a raw UK essence, fusing gritty vocal samples with a soft, ethereal flow. Its smooth tempo and euphoric layers come together with ease, offering subtle surprises as it progresses — a testament to Will You’s sharp craftsmanship and his deep understanding of the emotions that reside on the dancefloor.@willlyouwww.instagram.com/willyou.dj/Write up by @danpeplowollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
For its 25th release, Konstrukt brings us something special: a collaboration between Michal Wołski and Amandra that feels more like a late-night conversation between old friends than just another EP. This isn’t just about music but the moments behind it. Think cups of tea, gear scattered around a room, long chats that meander from the mundane to the profound, and the creative flow that only comes when you’re genuinely vibing with someone.Today’s premiere is the A-side, “First Tea.” It starts with a gritty groove anchored by a high-pitched sequence that flits around like fireflies in the dark. There’s this dripping sound that sneaks in—unexpected, but somehow it just fits, giving the beat a playful twist. And then those pads roll in, lush and expansive, lifting the track into this heady, feel-good space. It’s the kind of tune that takes its time, letting every layer breathe, building up to a peak that feels almost triumphant. “First Tea” is the track you want when the night’s winding down, but no one’s ready to go home yet.Tea Sessions EP drops on February 28 on a limited 180-gram vinyl.https://soundcloud.com/michalwolskihttps://soundcloud.com/amandraaahttps://soundcloud.com/konstrukt-5https://www.instagram.com/michalwolskihttps://www.instagram.com/amandra_ahrpe/https://www.instagram.com/konstrukt__/Write up by: @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
We’re really excited to share a premiere with you from a close friend of Delayed, someone we know and love - Hassan Siddiqui, or Âsan as he is known musically. Some of you may remember that he recorded the most beautiful & immersive 4 hour journey for us just over a year ago. He has accompanied us at our Delayed getaways in the Catskills & I actually first connected with him there in that same place in the forest, almost 2 years ago. Before he & I met, he had released his debut EP ‘GULP/GAME’ as the first on his own Cellar Door, an imprint which has since blossomed into a catalog of 12 releases from talented artists as well as a mix series & premiere platform. Since then, it has been a joy to watch Âsan develop & grow as an artist. From afar, Âsan may appear to be in hibernation but he has in fact been meticulously crafting his sound in the shadows with an incredible attention to detail. More than 2 years after his first solo release, he returns to the public eye with a new collection of music, a 4-track EP called ‘Beychen’. In Âsan’s native tongue of Urdu, this word means ‘restlesss’ or ‘uneasy’, words that are poignantly analogous to the mood & tone of the tracks on the release. ’Bass Bin’ is a track that materialized out of Âsan’s time experimenting with the Buchla Easel. “Except for the kick and clap. Everything in the track is from that one synth. I always try to work with as few instruments and sounds as possible,” he said when I asked about the production process behind the track. “If I can find myself lost & immersed in the end result, I think the listener can too.” He expresses a contemplative, minimalistic approach to techno that is inherent to his production process - filling the space with very few elements & focusing on reusing existing sounds rather than adding more to the canvas. His low end sound choices & mixing approach give his music a very distinct sound & feel. There is this deep thump but at the same time it has a feathery bounce. ”The idea behind the track was to work with bass-heavy elements. I absolutely love working with bass-forward music but a lot of the time, bass-heavy elements don’t translate on huge sound systems where subs are already extenuated. I wanted the grooves to be wall-shaking & the kick to be a punch in the gut.” The result of this process & thinking can be heard below. We’re looking forward to watching our friend Âsan continue his artistic journey.‘Beychen’, the 4-track, 140 gram vinyl, will be available April 1st on Âsan’s own Bandcamp & stocked at record shops worldwide. @hassansiddiqui90www.instagram.com/asan_cellar/Write up by: @aspetuckFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
Trust is the secret ingredient that makes an event more than just a night out. Whether it’s a party or a festival, knowing that the people behind it are genuine music devotees changes everything. Mostra Festival has built that trust over time, and for a good reason—they’re music nerds through and through. For this week's mix on "Delayed with..." series, one of Mostra’s core members steps up to the decks at Barcelona’s beloved Laut, debuting a new alias: Corsair, the latest incarnation of Josh Hoppen.This mix is a dispatch from the front lines of ExtraMostra, an international celebration of Mostra’s ethos that recently touched down on home turf in Barcelona featuring Josh Hoppen aka Corsair, Muted, and Memory Palace. Corsair brought the raw energy of UK breaks straight to a dancefloor that knew exactly what it wanted. And it’s clear from the first beat that Corsair knows how to deliver.The set showcases Hoppen’s encyclopedic music knowledge in a natural and unforced way. It’s all about tension and release, powered by an ever-evolving array of broken grooves. If you’re the type who likes to label things, you’ll catch hints of halftime, jungle, drum and bass, dub, techno and even a touch of trance—genres that weave in and out like old friends at a reunion. But Corsair’s magic lies in how he blends them into a seamless journey, always keeping the dancefloor on its toes.This mix celebrates bass in all its glorious forms, propelling the crowd into a state of relentless energy. It’s the kind of low-end therapy that shakes you to the core—literally. Sharp percussions slice through the air, riding atop liquid synth lines, while the grooves shift and adapt like a chameleon changing colors under the strobe lights.No excess, no pretense—just a set that hits hard and stays with you. Moments like this show why Mostra keeps us coming back.Play it loud. Let Corsair guide you through the heavy basslines and restless rhythms. Well done, Josh. Here’s to whatever comes next. Long live Corsair.https://soundcloud.com/joshhoppenhttps://www.instagram.com/joshhoppen/https://www.mostra.barcelonaWrite by @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
Winter has a way of slowing things down. Certain comforts stand out in the quiet of these colder months—a warm drink in hand, the familiar weight of a well-worn sweater, and a mix that carries the depth and warmth of something tangible, something analog. That very sensation defines the work of our next guest in the “Delayed with…” series: Velvia, a multidisciplinary artist from Paris whose love for analog textures runs through his photography and music. Whether capturing light on film or digging through his ever-expanding collection of records, his approach is driven by a deep appreciation for detail, process, and the imperfections that make things feel alive.Marking a special milestone, Velvia takes the reins for the 150th edition of the series, guiding us through the submerged world of dubby house and techno, where atmosphere dictates movement and groove follows instinctively. The transitions unfold with an understated elegance, weaving together sounds that resist rigid categorization. Somewhere between structure and spontaneity, this mix lingers in the undefined spaces, embracing the beauty of subtle shifts and evolving textures.Much like the film stock he takes his name from, Velvia’s work is all about depth, contrast, and a heightened sense of reality. This mix is no different. It doesn’t just fill the room; it sharpens the details, deepens the shadows, and brings the moment into focus.https://soundcloud.com/velvia50https://www.instagram.com/alexandremkfilm/write up by @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc

The third release on Lola Haro’s Small Steps label from Belgium sees German producer DJ Balduin step up with a contribution that embodies the label's sound. Known for his intricate, warm house basslines, clever loops, and breaks, DJ Balduin delivers a three-track EP, Everything, capturing the fleeting magic when light meets dark. Out on Valentine’s Day, 14th February, the release includes the track Somar and will be available in digital and vinyl formats via Bandcamp.The EP is all about mood and movement. In Somar, DJ Balduin plays with a mixture of rising and melancholic pads, including distant bird chatter and playful loops. A punchy beginning, the tracks mellow into moments of bliss, offering warmth throughout. The interplay of light and dark is palpable and emotive, evoking euphoria reminiscent of sunrise sets at festivals—those moments that shift the tempo and prepare us for another day of dancing.Small Steps and DJ Balduin captures these intangible moments with its sound: the eye contact on the dancefloor, subtle smiles, and the pull of the kick drum as we sway.@dj-balduin@small-steps-722755701www.instagram.com/djbalduin/www.instagram.com/_small_steps__/Write up by @danpeplowFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
There’s something special about clicking with someone musically, aesthetically, and on a human level. That’s exactly how we feel about our collaboration with Mostra Festival, which is entering its third year. We’re thrilled to introduce some of the talent performing at the 2025 edition and to continue this creative exchange with our friends from Spain.Mostra 2025 happens April 17-20 at two brand-new locations. With two waves of artists already announced, it’s clear that the high bar set by previous editions has once again been met. Expect the finest in ambient, experimental, avant-garde, and techno. The final wave of artists will be revealed tomorrow, February 12—keep an eye on the festival’s socials for the full announcement. More details on the lineup, new venues, and everything Mostra-related will be coming soon to our page.Today’s guest mix comes from an artist we’ve been following closely: Mariachiara Troianiello, aka Katatonic Silentio. An Italian producer, DJ, and researcher, she moves between electronic music, performing arts, and sound studies, blending abstraction with club energy. Active as a DJ for over 15 years, her sets oscillate between an analog past and a fast-moving future—sometimes dreamy and introspective, other times razor-sharp and unpredictable.This January, she was part of ExtraMostra event at Berlin’s OHM, where Mostra & Midgar joined forces. Alongside DjSport, Forest Drive West, Keplrr, and Severja, she delivered a mind-bending set in a packed-out club that couldn’t fit everyone who wanted in.For her guest mix in our series, Katatonic Silentio explores dub techno in her own meticulous way—controlled, intentional, and always with a sense of movement. The first hour plays with restraint, each track given space to breathe, while subtle shifts build an unspoken tension. Just when you think you’ve settled into the groove, she nudges things into unexpected territory—tightening the pulse, throwing in off-kilter patterns, and steering toward a more kinetic, unpredictable second hour. It’s a mix that keeps you on your toes, unfolding with precision rather than force. A refined trip from an artist who never takes the obvious route.Katatonic Silentio will perform a live set at Mostra 2025.https://www.mostra.barcelonahttps://soundcloud.com/katatonicsilentiohttps://soundcloud.com/mostrabcnhttps://www.instagram.com/mostrabcnhttps://www.instagram.com/katatonic_silentioFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
In the latest edition of our Delayed with… series, we feature Ksenia Kamikaza, the founder of Under Fest and Platz Für Tanz label, a key figure in Latvia’s underground music scene. We first crossed paths with Ksenia a few years back in Barcelona, which she now calls home. As a DJ and producer, her deep knowledge of electronic music comes through in every set, blending together a wide range of styles and influences.For this mix, Ksenia drew inspiration from the late David Lynch, exploring themes of life and death. Much like Mulholland Drive, where Lynch blurs the lines between dreams and reality, Ksenia’s mix pulls you into familiar territory before pulling the rug out from under you. She opens with Röyksopp’s beautifully haunting vocal track - We Remain Hidden / Consolation, creating a sense of calm and ease. But that comfort is fleeting. The beats start to fracture, melodies twist, and suddenly you find yourself swept into an unpredictable flow of shifting moods and subtle misdirection.This isn’t a straightforward journey from one sound to the next—it’s more like a Möbius strip, looping back on itself in unexpected ways. Just when you think you’ve settled into a groove, the rhythm shifts, leaving you wondering if the high point you hit was the climax—or just a prelude to something else entirely. Ksenia’s mix is layered, unpredictable, and keeps you guessing until the very end.Röyksopp, Pixx - We Remain Hidden / ConsolationCorrado Maria De Santis - Can't Find a PlaceMarine - EdenSalvatore Mercatante - How Many HandsToki Fuko - StrontiumChâteau Flight - ElastigumNuboid - Ode2TSJavier Marimon - Ns/Nc DbPurl - HimmelsandarSei A - BitesToki Fuko - PirahanPulso - HipervínculoUFO95 - BurnedSepehr - Queen of DemonsSnufmumriko - Skärgårdskväde (Moss Covered Technology Remix)Alva Noto - Xerrox Sans RepitVoid Stasis - Epilogue from the Unsettling Silencehttps://soundcloud.com/ksenia_kamikazahttps://www.instagram.com/kamikaza/Write up by @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc
Through overwhelming days and times of strife, an emphasis to look inwards and reflect seems appropriate. Outside stressors abound, almost at every turn it seems as the world claws at your mental stability. Italian producer, dj and more, Simone Gatto’s forthcoming Invisible Love album on his own Pregnant Void imprint marks a response to these negative forces. Giving space, soft moments of introspection and smooth melodies that all lend well to its healing nature.Like a deep breath, The Secret of Quantum Life slowly begins. In and out, in and out. The meditative nature can’t be ignored, Simone’s background influences coming through in spades as warm tones envelop the listener, accentuated by generative warbles providing movement and spontaneity. As the track progresses, varying swirls and melodic eddies appear, like changes in the wind.Gatto’s Invisible Love album will be released on the 7th of February.@simonegattodj@pregnantvoidwww.instagram.com/simonegatto_qui_ed_ora/www.instagram.com/pregnant_void/Write up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc
You know that feeling when you find a good mix? That little hit of satisfaction, like, yeah, that was time well spent. But then there are the rare ones—the mixes that hit just right, that feel like stumbling upon a new friend you just know you’ll be spending a lot of time with. That’s exactly what happened when we heard the latest Delayed with… mix from Toxido Mask.Toxido has been on our radar for a while, and for good reason. She’s one of those artists who doesn’t just play music—she builds entire worlds with it. From weightless ambient to brain-twisting halftime to relentless techno, she moves through sounds with the precision of someone who truly gets it. Every mix, every track she touches feels like it was put together with care, with intention. You don’t just listen—you experience it.And this mix? You’re gonna want to sit with this one. Or better yet, stand up—because the moment you hit play, you won’t be sitting for long. It’s DJing at its finest: sharp, fluid, and impossible to ignore. The flow is effortless, the energy is undeniable. One minute, you’re locked into a hypnotic halftime groove; the next, you’re riding a wave of rolling techno that hits in all the right places. It never loses its grip. You won’t want it to.It’s no surprise Toxido Mask holds down a residency at Tresor—she plays like she was born for it. But she’s not just shaping dancefloors; she’s shaping the scene itself, overseeing the artistic direction of OMM Transmission, the evolution of the Catharsis series.Some mixes are good. Some are great. And then there are the ones that stay with you. This is one of those.https://soundcloud.com/toxido-maskhttps://soundcloud.com/sisrahtachttps://www.instagram.com/toxicmassk/https://bandcamp.com/toxidomaskWrite up by @gilleswasserman Follow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc

This EP features five remixed tracks on the Swedish label, including Dino Sabatini's twist on "Flesh of the Gods," which will be available to purchase via Bandcamp on January 31st.Cosmic, ambient, deep, dramatic—these four words perfectly describe Sabatini's remix. It's a subtle journey, dialed down and stripped back compared to the original, showcasing a minimal and ambient touch from the Italian techno producer.

This morning finds us at the start of a new year, with a bit of a cold snap here in Brooklyn. The air is frigid with a stillness and freshness that can only be found in the winter months. Our guest mix for the time comes from Paduan, and exudes a warmth that is very, very welcome. He expertly weaves through different moods and hits that soft Sunday feeling that we all love. Other than Djing, Paduan also runs his own monthly show on Balamii as well as curates an event series, ‘Into the Universe’ with Will Oirson and Vincent Rang.Track List:Elori Saxl - SurfacesJonny Nash & Suzanne Kraft - InsideNueen - Wait Until ThenNuvola - Circular MotionAkhira Sano - ConfluentGiannis Gogos - Broken pianoWilliam Selman - Bubble House in Shallow DepthTotal Blue - The PathSkee Mask - GGs InterludeBrendon Moeller - Quiet QuittingCarmen Villain - Subtle Bodies (Huerco S.

This week on “Delayed with…”, we’re featuring matsssiii, a Zurich-based DJ and one of the core members of the Project Indigo collective and label. Project Indigo isn’t just another name in the scene—it’s a group we’ve grown to know and respect, built on shared nights (and days) on the dancefloor and a commitment to music that prioritizes feeling and quality over fleeting trends.matsssiii’s mix has a rare versatility, fitting seamlessly into all kinds of settings. It’s deep and well-paced, with a lightness that never drifts into the shallow. Somehow, it strikes that perfect balance—grounded yet weightless, soothing yet never dull. Whether zoning in on a task or gazing at a sunset, this mix feels like it was made for the moment.The music unfolds like a quiet narrative, with grooves that pull you in and atmospheric layers that let your mind wander. The rhythms feel tactile and earthy, while the melodies have a spacious, dreamlike quality that’s hard to pin down. It’s the kind of sound that doesn’t just accompany your day—it subtly transforms it.At Delayed, this is exactly what we look for: music that lingers in your mind, carrying its energy well beyond the final track.

Spiraling melodies and half time tempos spring to the forefront for our premiere today, titled Ravina. Portuguese artists Floating Machine and Inerte have combined talents for a contribution to the Berlin and Lisbon based event series and label, Art Bei Ton. The fifth edition of their VA series, ‘Seeing Cursed Spirits’ will soon be released that showcases a variety of sounds. All nestled within the folds of deep and hypnotic techno.Ravina evolves, slowly but surely. Each pulse of the percussion brings new life and energy into the air. A soft pad floats in the background, ethereal and ever-shifting, creating a sense of vast space that’s peppered with bright auditory textures giving movement and spontaneity as they jump around the listener. Gradually, voices become more pronounced, their distant melodies forming a loop that seems to repeat and evolve in subtle variations, like a mantra or chant. The panning continues to play with perception, shifting focus gently from one side to the other until the ending moments as each element slowly falls away.Art Bei Ton’s latest VA will be released on the 16th of January and includes offerings from a diverse set of artists including Viels, PEIX, and Nao Nhil.@floating-machine@inrt@art-bei-tonwww.instagram.com/floating_machine/www.instagram.com/art_bei_ton/Write up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us:info@delayed.nyc

Astral Industries has been quietly shaping a corner of music that feels uniquely its own for over ten years. Based in London, the label has become a refuge for sounds that don't play by the rules—drone, ambient, dub, deep techno—all delivered with a sense of purpose and personality that's hard to find elsewhere. At the center of it all is Ario, the visionary behind the label’s distinct identity. To start 2025 in style, we're excited to share his mix as part of our "Delayed with…" series.Ario's approach to music isn't about the obvious or the easy. His selections often veer into the experimental, finding connections in places others might overlook. Whether it's a drone, techno, or something that sits in the cracks between genres, he has a way of uncovering sounds that feel fresh and unpredictable. That instinct has made him a fixture at festivals like Paral.lel, Mostra, Moment, and La Nature just to name a few, where his sets are as much about exploration as they are about enjoyment.This mix is a live recording of Ario’s set at La Nature Festival, nestled deep in a Belgian forest. Over two hours in the Hypnose Room, he built something that felt both strange and welcoming—layers of murk and mystery balanced by flashes of warmth and light. Tracks rise and fall like moments in a story, some tense and introspective, others breaking through with fractured grooves or shimmering synths that catch you off guard. What makes this mix so compelling is its sense of space—it feels expansive and intimate at the same time. There's a timeless quality to it as if it could belong as much to the future as the past. But it's never pretentious or overthought. Ario lets the music breathe, letting you take from it what you will.Whether you're in the thick of the Hypnose Room or just sitting at home with a pair of good headphones, this set has a way of pulling you in if you let it. Hats off to Ario and La Nature Festival for creating something that feels real and alive, a reminder that originality still matters.https://soundcloud.com/astralindustrieshttps://www.instagram.com/ariofarah/https://astralindustries.bandcamp.com/La Nature Festival - https://www.lanature.beWrite up by @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedContact us: info@delayed.nyc

Jeju Island’s Oslated closes out the year with 아름다운 사실 (Beautiful Facts), an 18-track compilation that feels like a gathering of old friends and new acquaintances. It’s a collection that stretches across continents—featuring artists from Japan, Spain, Canada, the U.S., and more. Despite the diversity of origins, the compilation shares a unifying thread: a deep, hypnotic sensibility. Beautiful Facts balances introspection and movement with precision, whether it’s the reflective ambiance of a meditative piece or the steady propulsion of a track made for shadowy, late-night dance floors.Today’s premiere, “Mutation,” comes courtesy of Japanese producer Hiromi Hayashida, better known as Lindamann. The track opens with a restrained, minimal groove, where sharp hi-hats cut through like a blade while shimmering glassy pads create a sense of anticipation. But this is no slow burner—it transforms quickly, as a powerful bassline surges in, commanding the spotlight like an imposing wave in a high-stakes drama. Think of it as a scene from a thriller where a calm surface suddenly gives way to unrelenting tension. Lindamann’s playful manipulation of envelopes and textures keeps the track dynamic, particularly after a brief breakdown that reintroduces a biting acid line—an essential element that gives “Mutation” its character.“Mutation” thrives in the murky hours, perfect for dance floors that favor the unconventional. Look for it alongside the rest of Beautiful Facts when the compilation drops on December 30.https://soundcloud.com/lindamannnhttps://soundcloud.com/oslatedhttps://www.instagram.com/lin_da_mann/https://oslated.bandcamp.comhttps://linktr.ee/oslatedwrite up by: https://soundcloud.com/gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedinfo@delayed.nyc
Deeply emotive and engaging, the collaboration between Swiss collective Project Indigo and Hame feels destined. It wasn’t a matter of "if," but "when." The EP Self Expression will be released on December 27th, available in both digital and vinyl formats.The final track, Stick Together, showcases Hame’s natural ability to pull on the heartstrings. With warm pads and recurring hooks, each layered with rich bass and presence, the track takes us from deep contemplation to an irresistible urge to dance—swaying side to side for one last dance as the EP comes to a close. Elegant, deep, minimal house music.Hame and Project Indigo are meant to be.

Twisted tendrils, organic growth, and murky jungle scenes all spring to mind while listening to the forthcoming Hypersonic Macrobiomas EP by R-010 on Obtuse Swamp. The Madrid based producer stretches his auditory muscles to showcase a wide range of moods throughout the release that build upon dynamic sound design, half time tempos and deft uses of melody to propel listeners into a whirlwind of feelings.One of two remixers on the release (the other being a fellow Spaniard, Absis) is Berlin native, Toxido Mask. Her take on R-010’s ‘Thermoplastic Skins’ dives deeper into the abyss, as bass lines swell and stuttery percussion lines pick away - both contributing to a frenetic tension that just needs to be released.Hypersonic Macrobiomas will be out in its entirety on the 19th of December via the Barcelona based imprint, Obtuse Swamp.@r010artist@toxido-mask@obtuseswampwww.instagram.com/toxicmassk/www.instagram.com/obtuse.swamp/Write up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayed

A few months ago, we had the chance to play at an event in Brooklyn, part of a small “Oslated gathering.” The lineup included our own Aspetuck and Moon Patrol, along with Vice City making her NYC debut, and event organizers - Buusto, co-founder of Club Dub Radio, and Maharam, a resident of Club Dub and organizer of Final Passage events. The night brought together a close-knit crowd and a shared love for deep and dub techno. For us, one of the highlights was connecting with Justin (Buusto), Avi (Maharam), and Nathan (Apok), the minds behind the event they aptly named Drift. Buusto and Maharam brought their passion and skill to the decks, making the night something special. We’re especially excited to feature Maharam’s set as part of our “Delayed with…” series.Maharam opened the night, and it's not a secret that we're big believers in the art of a proper opening set. Maharam delivered one of the best we've heard in a long time. Despite its brevity at just 60 minutes, the set was a masterclass in pacing and mood. Creating a journey within such a limited timeframe takes real skill, and Maharam made every moment count. He explored the deeper end of the spectrum, guiding us through dubby textures, breakbeats, and bass-heavy grooves—perfectly setting the stage for what came next. If we had to choose, we couldn't imagine a better way to kick off the night.It's always inspiring to connect with emerging talent in our scene who gravitate toward the more refined side of electronic music. Maharam and Buusto are both names to watch, and we're sure this is just the beginning of what they'll bring to the table. Keep an ear out for more from them—we certainly will.https://soundcloud.com/maharam-soundhttps://www.instagram.com/___maharam/https://www.instagram.com/finalpassage/https://soundcloud.com/club_dubhttps://www.instagram.com/club__dubFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedinfo@delayed.nyc

The title track, BLAZE, takes listeners on a journey through moody, hypnotic soundscapes, driven by rolling rhythms and reptilian-like percussive elements and effects.This beautifully crafted composition is a testament to Laima’s artistry, voicing her musical vision through the language of techno.@amlia@predawnrecordswww.instagram.com/laimaadelaide/www.instagram.com/predawn_records/Write up by @danpeplowFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayed

Caldera returns to Berlin-based Nummer Music with a stunning remix, just over a year after his “5D Worlds” EP was released on the label. The original track is a playful & eclectic 11 minute journey from 1994, filled with fun moments of breaks, samples & warm FM chords. It’s seeing the light again as Nummer’s first reissue on the label, originally released 30 years ago on French label Virtual by Parisian-born / Okinawa-based producer Paul Mahoux aka BùLù.Caldera’s remix is a smooth & floaty ride, gradually building over the course of its entirety, a patient display of tension & release. Right away you can hear some of Caldera’s very distinct sounds & recognizable stylistic choices - otherworldly textures which bring an airy sheen to the higher end of the frequency spectrum as well as sharp yet delicate percussion. There is a warm, crystal clear low end & about halfway through, sub that hits right in the chest for a moment of pure bliss as the energy of the track softly dissipates in the second half. “Silicon-Shepard / Senegalese-Sharpshooter” will release on December 6th on Nummer Music in both physical & digital formats. In the meantime, make sure to dive into Caldera’s Delayed with… mix which was released back in early October.@caldera-caldera@nummerwww.instagram.com/caldera.em.es/www.instagram.com/nummer_music/Write up by @aspetuckFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayed
Wonderfully unique, and rooted in field recordings, UK producers Yard One & Tryst’s productions are no stranger to us at Delayed. Having premiered many a tune of theirs over the years, it’s always nice to listen to their latest project. Today is no different as they, alongside Red Pig Flower, and Vovian, join forces to create the latest release on Stolar, titled ‘San-lim Yok’.Haeundae Beach (The End Of The Line), is like a musical deep breath. Giving space and letting listeners take a pause, to recenter themselves. Soft melodies swirl around the depths, while soothing Korean spoken words add a zen-like element. All backed by the sounds and textures of waves crashing on a beach, far far away. As a companion to the premiere, and release, a short film has been created, envisaging the above, set in an evocative color palette, like a shared fever dream.Forthcoming on Stolar, the San-lim Yok EP also features notable remixes from Alex Albrecht, and Eli Verveine to round out an already jam-packed release that should be out on December 10th.Companion Videowww.youtube.com/watch?v=gWJqKngtWpI@yard-one-musicwww.instagram.com/yardonemusic/@ghto4dqxaqipwww.instagram.com/vovian__/Write up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayed
Parisian artist KEUT is the founder and artistic director of KLUSTER, a collective and label that has become a fixture in the city's underground scene. His approach to music is as fluid as his influences, which range from hip-hop and bossa nova to blues and pop, all filtered through a lens of hypnotic, minimalist techno. During the pandemic, he channeled his creative energy into building KLUSTER, a project rooted in community and connection. Now, with residencies and plans for a dedicated space, KEUT has cultivated a movement that mirrors his music's thoughtful, layered approach.This "Delayed with…" mix feels like it's made for the dancefloor of a lakeside beach at sunrise. KEUT begins with airy, dub-laden sounds that match the cool, early-morning air and the shimmering reflection of light on the water. As the mix evolves, it builds momentum, mirroring the sun climbing higher. When Tozzi's Kamayuk drops, the weather shifts—a brief summer storm that electrifies the mood. The energy deepens, taking on a melancholic hue, yet it never loses the light entirely. KEUT's ability to guide this transition makes for a set that is as dynamic as it is reflective and perfectly suited for that moment when the night melts into the day.https://soundcloud.com/keutmusichttps://www.instagram.com/keut.kchttps://soundcloud.com/klusterecordshttps://www.instagram.com/kluster_collectif/Follow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.delayed.nychttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed
Rarely do albums strike quickly and establish themselves as a must-listen but Iridescent, the latest from Aussies Pugilist and Pod, forth-coming on Of Paradise does exactly that. Fans of the Melbourne based artists shouldn’t be surprised at all, Pugilist’s commanding grip on proper sound design always has his tracks on rotation around the scene. Meanwhile Pod, aka Wu Kush is no stranger to well executed housey productions, although for today, we’ll be honing in on his bass, and jungle moniker.Mystic slides in at B2 on the 8 track release (9 with a digital bonus track). Low slung bass lines, and jungle like percussion start the track off strongly. Giving great feelings of groove and movement, as snappy bongos and flitting accents play off each other, panned too and fro. As the track progresses, a simple yet effective melody materializes - reminiscent of a night out with moody pads.Expect Pugilist and Pod’s Iridescent release hitting the shelves, and out digitally on the 29th of November.@pugilistmusicwww.instagram.com/pugilistmusic/@podimensionwww.instagram.com/kushgram6969/@ofparadiserecordswww.instagram.com/ofparadiserecords/Write up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.delayed.nycwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayed
A hypnotic introduction draws you in, its precision captivating from the first bars. Without delay, the drums take the lead, driving an energy that fuses IDM, D&B, and techno. Munich-based Dycide is known for his fluidity between styles, and this track exemplifies just that. Sharing its name with the LP, Cult of the Black Moon, it feels thematic, capturing the transformative pull of the moon - immersive and powerful. Released on co-founded IO Records, the EP will be available in digital format on 28th November.Repetitive drum sequences and intelligent edge define the track’s concise yet impactful nature.

He will launch the label himself with Magnetismo, a three-track debut available in a limited vinyl run and digital format from 25th November.The EP’s closing track, Sideral, begins with a deep tribal feel that runs throughout the release, yet this final track offers something distinct. The eerie, low-end tones remain, but they are joined by a fusion of a nostalgic 90s acid vibe and a sense of futurism - a wonderfully executed combination of drum & bass, half-time, and techno, reminiscent in any of his sets.A strong debut release for Aura Sonora—one designed for the dancefloor.@forestonstasyswww.facebook.com/forestonstasyswww.instagram.com/forest_on_stasys@aurasonorarecordswww.instagram.com/aurasonora.recordsWrite up by @danpeplowFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.itsdelayed.comwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayed
Two techno savants conjure magic in We Go Forest, with Spira Records co-founder BLNDFLD shaping the original track and Feral adding his hypnotic, transcendent touch. Deep and primal by nature, the release will be available digitally on November 17th.The original track delivers a slower, calm, tribal rhythm, while “Jaguar Paw (Feral Remix)” ventures into a wilder soundscape. From the first beat, listeners are drawn into an immersive world—ancient and alive. A deep bassline keeps the mood steady, as organic and cosmic melodies weave in and out like whispers through trees, capturing the transcendence typical of both artists’ styles and within Spira’s previous releases.Everything was thoughtfully placed, including pauses, to give space for imagery and mood to deepen, as new layers emerge with sounds reminiscent of ancient wind instruments. Subtle rain then guides us out, concluding an adventurous stroll through a forest.An impeccably crafted track that showcases both artists at their finest.@blndfld@feral_music@spira-recordswww.instagram.com/blindfld__/www.instagram.com/feral.heruka/www.instagram.com/spira_records/Write up by @danpeplowFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.itsdelayed.comwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayed
Alpenglühen’s ninth release, Guldstund EP, brings together Ben Kaczor and Martinou under their collaborative alias, Tarik Hensen, for a project that balances deep grooves with a contemplative edge. Named for the fleeting Alpine glow that graces mountain peaks at dawn and dusk, Alpenglühen evokes a sense of transient beauty mirrored in this EP. Each of its four tracks is crafted with an understated yet profound minimalism that resonates across time and mood, making it ideal for the after-hours haze or the quieter moments of a night. Tarik Hensen’s sound here is restrained and expansive, capturing a complex emotional range.Our premiere for today, “Tjäle,” encapsulates this concept through its reference to the Scandinavian ground frost that clings to the earth in the early morning light. Like the rare alpenglow, “Tjäle” has an ephemeral quality - it sits in the memory, gently cooling yet vivid, lingering as subtle layers unfold. The track’s steady rhythm and textured atmosphere mirror that frosty stillness, a restrained force as delicate as deeply rooted. In this way, “Tjäle” captures the spirit of both natural phenomena, blending the quiet persistence of ground frost with the radiant, fleeting warmth of Alpenglühen itself.The Guldstund EP will be released on November 18 and will be available on 12” vinyl via Alpenglühen’s Bandcamp and other favorite record stores. Alpenglühen has carved out a niche for refined, introspective club music, and this EP perfectly captures that ethos.https://soundcloud.com/tarik-hensenhttps://soundcloud.com/benkaczorhttps://soundcloud.com/martinou3000https://soundcloud.com/f-ondjhttps://alpengluhen.bandcamp.comWrite up by https://soundcloud.com/gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.itsdelayed.comhttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed

Vardae, producer and co-founder of the French festival Ouroboros, is known for crafting immersive, hypnotic two-hour live sets that venture into exciting realms of psychedelic music. This vision has come to life in performances such as a UK debut for London’s Perspectives and a driving techno and drum led set at Belgium’s La Nature festival.Ouroboros invites people to "join the circle," embracing community and the ritual of dance music. The upcoming EP, Power of the Tribe, on Norwegian label Annulled, captures this same spirit of unity and will be available on Bandcamp on 7th November.Opening the release, Khori sets a suspenseful, atmospheric mood where melody anchors a trance-like progression and beat. The sound strikes a balance between introspective moments and intense, dance-floor energy — a fusion of sounds from around the world that together create a beautifully rounded EP.https://soundcloud.com/vardaemusichttps://soundcloud.com/annulled_musichttps://www.instagram.com/vardae_musicWrite up by @danpeplowFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.itsdelayed.comwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayed
Mary Yuzovskaya's mix for Delayed captures her defining approach to techno: raw, hypnotic, and unhurried. As a vinyl-only DJ with roots in Berlin's techno underground and a significant stretch in New York's scene, she shapes her music with precision, offering an hour-long set that feels both intimate and intense. This mix is crafted for those who get lost in the beat, whether booming from Berghain's Funktion-One system or spinning in your headphones on a midnight walk.During her years in NYC, Mary's sound took on new depth, honed through a three-year residency with the Unter collective and work at Brooklyn's Halcyon record shop, where she later launched her label, Monday Off. Dedicated to "psychedelic techno," Monday Off became a home for artists who push beyond the genre's usual limits. Through her label, Mary has amplified a vision of techno that doesn't rely on trends but thrives on nuance and a deliberate, mind-bending drive.Back in Berlin, Mary's reach grows, with regular gigs at clubs like Berghain and Tresor or Munich's Rote Sonne, NYC's Basement, and releases on respected labels like Semantica, Attic, Kvalia, and her own Monday Off. This mix for Delayed shows how she keeps the music tightly focused yet open to exploration—an hour that reflects her journey, rooted in vinyl and built for techno's true devotees.https://soundcloud.com/bananamilkhttps://www.instagram.com/mary_yuzovskaya/https://soundcloud.com/monday-offhttps://mondayoff.bandcamp.comFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.itsdelayed.comhttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed
Nestled within a Spanish forest, the sounds of music mingle with nature. For a few days every year, new friends and old gather together to enjoy what we all love dearly. With the utmost of care the lineup is curated for a continuous stream of wonderful artists to ply their craft. Known as Perpendicular, the intimate festival brings forth incredible sets that range from ambient and experimental through to deep techno and beyond.With the scene set in mind, we arrive at our premiere for today. Valencian artist, David Ortolà aka d_o_ppelgaenger and Szene 9. The release as a whole encapsulates his live set at the past edition of Perpendicular, which makes it all the more special and a window into what the festival provides. Szene 9 begins with swirling drone-like tones and textures followed by off-kilter percussion that evolves over the duration of the track. In addition to the overall pensive atmosphere are melancholic pads that provide just a touch of gravitas. Like a grand crescendo the elements peel away one by one leaving only the synths to gnaw away at the night.Szene 9 and the remainder of d_o_ppelgaenger’s amazing ‘Live at Perpendicular 2024’ release will be the first on the brand new label, Sediments on November 3rd. Run by both David, and Jaime Romero aka Estrato Aurora the Valencian label will be closely watched and (listened to) by us here at Delayed.Write up by @huedj@d_o_ppelgaenger@sed_ime_ntswww.instagram.com/d_o_ppelgaenger/www.instagram.com/sed_ime_nts/Follow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.itsdelayed.comwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayed
At the intersection of synth, sampler driven production, and cinematic emotionally laden melodies, exists the Serbian duo, Attila Ábrahám and Goran Grubišić aka GOAT GRAB. Their debut album under the moniker is forthcoming on the superb Oslated label. Sliding in at 12 tracks, the release titled, ‘Dream Figure’ is a melancholy drenched journey through spoken word, and haunting moments. At times evoking distant memories of a Vangelis tune in the best of ways. Listening through the entirety, it’s immediately apparent the gravitas and lifetimes of musical experiences that have been poured into the creation of each track.The Crunch Of Dishonesty rumbles and tugs on the heart strings immediately with a lonesome synth establishing that all important atmosphere. A sad call answered by a chorus of supporting synths swells into a glitchy downtempo beat that gives movement and progress. All accompanied by a disembodied voice, giving mantras that echo around the listener until the track finishes in a slow but inevitable decay.Dream Figure will be released into the world, October 7th.Write up by @huedj@attila-abraham-105124575@oslatedwww.instagram.com/goat_grabFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.itsdelayed.comwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayed
Stuttgart’s Predawn Records unveils the third chapter of its “Voices” series, a project exploring how voices form a bridge between our internal and external worlds, translating thoughts, emotions, and perceptions into sound.This latest edition is the most expansive yet, featuring a diverse roster of familiar names from the Delayed circuit, including Javier Marimon, Nils Edte, Pianeti Sintetici, Laima Adelaide, Eafhm, and Vedis, among others.Today’s premiere is the latest creation of the Mexico City-based sound designer Eafhm, “Slow Tan.” The track hits hard right out of the gate with its broken beat and razor-sharp percussion. The piece simmers with atmospheric tension, like water sizzling on a scorching surface, making it a proper material for after-hours sets.“Voices 03” drops on September 30.https://soundcloud.com/eafhmlivehttps://soundcloud.com/predawnrecordshttps://www.instagram.com/_unspeakablethings/https://www.instagram.com/predawn_records/Follow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.itsdelayed.comhttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed
In the past few months, we’ve found ourselves returning to a remarkable corner of the Spanish midlands, where music thrives in a unique and unpredictable way. Perpendicular Festival has become the place where artists embrace spontaneity, crafting moments that feel truly alive.This time, we’re focusing on o.utlier, an Irishman based in London whose debut album Alaya on Appian Sounds left an unforgettable mark last year. A co-founder of Titrate Records and a resident DJ for Astral Industries, o.utlier has mastered the art of balancing a diverse range of sounds, from drone to intricate polyrhythmic techno. If you’re familiar with his work, you already have a sense of the musical journey he can take you on.It was a bright Saturday afternoon when he took the stage, easing the crowd into the day with laid-back broken beats and serene atmospheres. There was an unspoken magic as the music slowly drew everyone in, almost imperceptibly. Beneath a canopy of shade, the crowd swayed, their movements guided by his subtle changes in tempo and tone. Before long, the energy began to build, smooth, natural, and unforced, until the atmosphere shifted into something more adventurous.Suddenly, the set took a turn, diving into murkier territory. Darker tones emerged, with dub influences and intricate rhythms that seemed to challenge both body and mind. Over the course of nearly two and a half hours, o.utlier created a magnetic experience that felt both cerebral and visceral—a true journey through the unexpected.This performance was a special one; it was a shared moment at a gathering of kindred spirits. Do you really need another reason to hit play? We think not.https://soundcloud.com/o-utlierhttps://soundcloud.com/espacio-perpendicularhttps://www.instagram.com/outlier_rory/https://www.instagram.com/espacio.perpendicular/https://outlier.bandcamp.com/album/alayaFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.itsdelayed.comhttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed
Life is a journey, not a destination. This phrase keeps echoing in my mind as I write the description for today’s mix. September is a special month in the Sundays series, as we enter the fifth year of its existence. Throughout the time passed, sounds have changed, I’ve changed. What has remained constant is the idea that we all value those special, personal moments during the weekend. Moments to recharge, to ground ourselves, to soothe, to focus on oneself.

Dutch artist Stefan Vincent returns to Amsterdam-based imprint MUSAR Recordings to conclude the melancholic journey he began with the 'Pre' edition last June. This release tells an honest, raw story of embracing solemn moods and the positive, transformative impact they can have on life.The track ‘You Know This Isn’t Going To End Well’ begins with a sense of curiosity, drawing us into its intriguing atmosphere. Melancholy underpins the whole release, and that’s the same for this track, imparting an ominous tone, yet tempered by a subtle, whimsical touch in the melody. This melody is juxtaposed against the dynamic contrast of drum and bass patterns and IDM foundations, creating this captivating interplay, full of class.As the track progresses, it becomes increasingly hypnotic, with a steady rhythm that drives forward with subtle persistence. Like travelling down an endless street, the destination seems unclear—until suddenly, everything falls into place. One thing is certain: this journey ends well.You Know This Isn’t Going To End Well the rest of the ‘Post Melancholy’ release will be available to buy on vinyl and digital on September 20th.Write up by @danpeplow@stefanvincent@musar-recordingswww.instagram.com/stefanvincent_/www.instagram.com/musar_recordings/Follow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.itsdelayed.comwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayed
As the days grow shorter & the leaves begin to turn, we find ourselves looking inwards, preparing our minds for the beautiful yet harsh cold winter months ahead. There is a particular awareness of the present moment during these transitions from season to season, as cooler weather gently makes its way to the New York area. I certainly find myself seeking out music that is more introspective & comforting during these fall months, something to accompany a long walk through the woods or a drive through the morning fog. Dutch producer Tensen Park - the newest member of our Never Late family - presents us with an ethereal hour-long journey through some of his current favorites & musical influences. It is a mix crafted for these moments of seasonal transition. "I wanted to make it a bit of a trip" he said, "starting with some deeper, more emotional / human tracks then working towards some more playful / more energetic tracks." These 'futurebeats', as he describes this particular sound, consist of a blend of IDM, breakbeat, ambient & dub. This style can be heard sprinkled throughout his ‘Jurassimo’ EP which was just released on our own record label, Never Late. Tensen Park included two of his own tracks in the mix, in addition to a collection of tracks that he has been listening to for the past couple of months.Write up by @aspetuck@tensen-parkwww.instagram.com/tensen.parkFollow us on social media:@never-latewww.never-late.bandcamp.comwww.facebook.com/neverlaterec/www.instagram.com/___neverlate/www.youtube.com/@never-late@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.itsdelayed.comwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayed
Throughout our musical journey, the sounds have changed, the artists as well. The peak time has turned to banal, the ebb is now the flow. All, is a part of the musical adventure, and fortunately we have documented the vast majority of said endeavors. Some things change, and others stay the same as our premiere today comes from the home, off our forthcoming release on Never Late.Spores Adrift, by Dutch artist Tensen Park embodies a common theme. One that has persisted from the start, and been a guiding touch for so many moments. Emotionally laden music that leaves a mark with listeners. Creating that all important personal connection and building upon it. From the start, synth quirks and chirps are backed by sweeping melancholic pads and a broken beat based percussion line. Setting the tone for the duration of the track, and backed by an enveloping bass line. With each passing minute, the interplay of samples, synths, and percussion dance around each other, keeping the arrangement fluid and the track floating along.Spores Adrift and the entirety of the ‘Jurassimo’ EP will be released out into the world, the 20th of September off of Never Late.

Ambient Australian sounds are the name of today's premiere game as we welcome Mara, a key figure in Sydney's experimental scene to our platform. Her album, titled ‘At Every Corner’ is the first on fellow Aussie label, Pure Space and comes via their home listening series. Stretching through seven tracks, Mara guides the listener along a journey steeped in field recordings, snippets of past performances, spoken word and more.Tokyo In 30,000 Steps tastefully combines several of Mara’s performances into one as the song progresses. Beginning with bird-like synth trills, and disembodied voices murmuring in the background. A feeling of energy persists and scattered attention spans fill the space. Almost as soon as it starts, a sudden change occurs, and darker, drone-like melodies emerge. Like a light and dark, contrasting moods, a call and response to symbolize the frenetic nature of today's lives.Tokyo In 30,000 Steps and in turn, the remainder of Mara’s album will be released on September 19th.@maramaramusic@purespacefmwww.instagram.com/mara.mara.mara/www.instagram.com/purespacefm/Follow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.itsdelayed.comwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayed

Joachim Spieth teases his forthcoming album "Retrace" with the release of the album opener, "Recall," accompanied by a wonderfully dubby, dance-floor-friendly remix from the producer well-known within our community, Luigi Tozzi. While Spieth keeps things in a laid-back "sofa surfer" mode with deep, ambient, and dub-tinged atmospheres, Luigi Tozzi's remix expands the dub side of "Recall" into a proper dancefloor groover whose stabs simply envelope a listener like a spider web. Spieth and Tozzi, two of techno's distinguished artists, join forces and deliver a creme de la creme dub techno release. This is a great introduction to Joachim Spieth's forthcoming album, "Retrace," due in October. The single "Recall" with Luigi Tozzi's remix is coming out on September 6.https://soundcloud.com/luigitozzihttps://soundcloud.com/joachim-spiethhttps://www.instagram.com/joachimspieth/https://www.instagram.com/luigi.tozzi.music/Follow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.itsdelayed.comhttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed

Bioma is a four-track exploration of driving rhythms and hypnotic synth textures.Pianeti Sintetici, Italian for "synthetic planets," is a new project inspired by Douglas Adams' Magrathea, a planet where artificial worlds are built to order.

It's an ongoing experiment in exploring these ideas through sound."Today, we premiere "Vulcano Island," the third track from the EP. With its steady, engine-like groove layered with tribal percussion and intergalactic synths, "Vulcano Island" is a powerful track that unleashes its true potential when played on a powerful sound system.

We're back in the spellbinding Spanish woods, home to Perpendicular Festival, this time with a New York City via Madrid DJ, 037. 037, aka Leo Téllez, one of the members of the Perpendicular crew, delivered a wild ride at this year's gathering. His set was a primal force, instantly gripping the crowd with a relentless halftime beat. As the journey unfolded, 037 threw unexpected twists and turns of trance and electronica, but the core intensity never wavered. The set constantly evolved, floating above a shifting foundation of complex rhythms.https://soundcloud.com/l037https://www.instagram.com/leotellezg/@espacio-perpendicularFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.itsdelayed.comhttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed
Four years after we featured their guest mix, one of the most played with over 40K plays, the beloved Italian duo Orion is back on our "Delayed with..." series. This time, they're sharing a live set recorded at this year's Paradise City festival.Saturday's program at the Sweet Spot stage included many of our friends who are usual suspects here at Delayed. It felt like a family gathering... in the rain. Rain can dramatically influence a party's vibe. It often disrupts, ends, or alters the atmosphere, but sometimes, it enhances the energy, creating a unique experience. Fortunately for Orion and everyone at the Sweet Spot stage that Saturday, the rain brought the latter effect. Orion and the crowd were in sync, embracing the "f*ck this rain" attitude. Orion's live set was groovy and deep yet uplifting and energetic. No artist wants rain during their performance, but in this case, it just worked. It was great.We're stoked to share this special live set with you.

To the island of Jeju, we look today as the latest offering on Oslated comes in the form of Vidění. True to form, the Italian DJ, and producer (now Barcelona based) inhabits the deeper realms of electronica, as the LP seamlessly glides through many a mood and genre. Acting more like a spiritual successor to a prior release on Shaded Explorations, The Land Of Clouds expands a great deal more on the slower, rhythmic side of things, through wonderful textures, pads, and a great sense of arrangement.‘Wanderers Of The Sky’ acts as a proper response to the growing tension of prior tracks. Energy was building, building, building, now the crescendo has been reached, the hill climbed, and back down we must go. The subtle drone-like melodies, guide the listener through the emotional come down gently. Deftly complimented by the spiraling synths and a steady percussive line, breakish in nature. All of which ease the landing into the beatless ending of the release.The Land Of Clouds will be released via Oslated, on the 29th of July.@videni@oslatedFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.itsdelayed.comwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayed
Saturday at the Mostra Festival will be remembered as a true celebration of techno, from Bas Dobbelaer's opening set at the Foso stage to Sonic Wave Collective's closing set at the Castell. That afternoon, the Foso stage hosted three artists: Bas Dobbelaer, Tevor Handa, and Patrick Russell. We were already familiar with Bas and Patrick's exceptional skills behind the decks, but Tevor Handa was an unknown to us. However, we had complete faith in Alfonso's (programming director of Mostra Festival) impeccable taste and programming, and we were excited to hear a DJ who is a local favorite and a discovery for some in the crowd (including us) that day.Following an outstanding opening set by Bas Dobbelaer, Tevor took over and delivered one of the festival's standout performances. Olmo Rodríguez, aka Tevor Handa, showcased deep techno that perfectly matched the open-air, daytime atmosphere. His mix was groovy, engaging, intricate, and well-balanced. It wasn't just about avoiding fillers or chasing killers; it was a solid track selection, with each track bringing its unique flair. Every track stood out, whether it was an infectious groove, a trippy liquid synth line, or a lush, mellow melody.That Saturday, Tevor Handa won us over, and we are thrilled to present his mix on our channel.https://soundcloud.com/tevorhandahttps://www.instagram.com/olmo_rodriguez/https://soundcloud.com/mostrabcnhttps://www.instagram.com/mostrabcn/https://www.mostra.barcelona/eng/text by @gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.itsdelayed.comhttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed
To the Germans do we look for today’s premiere as a rare appearance from one of the core Giegling members, Edward lands on Smallville for his debut release on the label. The combination of these two is not one to be ignored as the four track EP, titled ‘Eddie Green’ contains all the hallmarks of an Edward release. Fast paced, hypnotic and groovy deep house, to techno infused vibes, and dubbed out house, that has moved many a floor into a dancing frenzy.So Slow rounds the release out, coming as B2 and emphasizes the jazzier, introspective side of Edward. The aptly titled track forgoes the upbeat tempos of the prior in favor of a subdued beat and piano melody that rises and falls with the undulations of the bass line. Listening through the song, scenes of rides on buses or trains, pensively looking out of windows all spring to mind. Moments of serenity in between those of cacophony.Expect Eddie Green and in turn, So Slow to be released on Smallville, July 26th.@edward@smallville-recordswww.instagram.com/smallville_records/Write up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.itsdelayed.comwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayed

The dog days of summer are upon us here in Brooklyn, as the heat is making itself known. To match these sultry afternoons and nights, we look to Pango aka Pascal Bauer and the Zurich based collective, Project Indigo for the perfect musical companion. The four track EP titled, ‘Ahlea’ includes a nice variation of tracks that shows off Pango’s adeptness at creating emotive moments through a few different means. From the breakish ‘if you were’, fast-paced ‘foppettas’ through to the deep grooves of the title track ahlea, and in turn our premiere for today, namesake.From the get go, Pango establishes a melodic introduction that sets the mood for what's to come — a journey into deep, soulful vibes. The swirling pads tugging at the heartstrings, bringing all the warmth and good feelings. Throughout the track these elements weave in and out, accompanied by a swinging percussion line, and a steady 4/4 kick that innately will keep your head nodding along. Namesake and the rest of the ‘ahlea’ release will be out on Project Indigo the 12th of July.@pango-bauer@projindigowww.instagram.com/pango.pi/www.instagram.com/projindigo/Follow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.itsdelayed.comwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayed
Berlin and Lisbon's collaborative event series, Art Bei Ton, lifts the veil on its third release, "Some Sacred Grounds." This compilation explores the world of ritualistic sounds, featuring eight international artists who traverse a spectrum of intensity over the course of seven tracks, ranging from hushed ambient whispers to deep techno pulsations.Our premiere showcases two artists revered by Delayed: Adhémar and Toki Fuko. Teaming up, they craft a nine-and-a-half-minute "seaweed techno voyage" – a low-slung groove that constantly morphs with intricate details. The rhythmic interplay between their percussion sequences is quite hypnotic, keeping the tribalistic energy flowing without ever getting stale.Adhémar and Toki Fuko's "Dialogue" sets the perfect mood – ideal for an opening set at dawn or a smooth transition from ambient passages into chuggy rhythms.'Some Sacred Grounds,' is due July 16, featuring very exciting works.https://soundcloud.com/adhemarmusichttps://soundcloud.com/tokifukohttps://soundcloud.com/art-bei-tonhttps://www.instagram.com/adhemar_music/https://www.instagram.com/tokifukohttps://www.instagram.com/art_bei_ton/Follow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.itsdelayed.comhttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed
We've always had a soft spot for unearthing underground talent here at Delayed, putting a spotlight on lesser-known producers and DJs since day one. Fresh off our summer break, we're thrilled to introduce Melbourne's Morian.While new to our scene, Morian's a seasoned explorer in the musical landscape. His travels have taken him through metal, dub, drum and bass, and electronica before landing on deep techno for the past few years.Morian has crafted a deep and relaxing mix for us. It opens with a breezy, dubby vibe that gradually gets laced with intricate details – funky basslines, splashes of exotic melodies, and infectious percussions – making each track unique. The mix then takes on a hint of acid before exploring darker techno, only to resurface with intergalactic synths and broken-beat electronica. The final quarter drifts into cinematic, ambient territories, providing a fitting conclusion to this nice mix.https://soundcloud.com/user-401093353Follow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.itsdelayed.comhttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed

The relentless churn of techno welcomes a fresh face: Academeia Records, a Copenhagen outfit ready to launch into the stratosphere. Their debut offering, a sprawling 22-track compilation titled "Transparent World," promises a voyage through the genre's diverse landscape. We find established figures like Anthony Linell and Space Drum Meditation alongside the local legend Martinez, a veteran with years etched in the electronic music scene.Our focus today is "Landing," a collaborative effort by Athenian duo Atypikal. The track starts subtly, a slow burn of tension that builds for two minutes before erupting into a full-blown techno odyssey. Atypikal throws everything at the wall here: relentless percussion lays the foundation, catchy melodic sequences weave through the mix, and the kick drum pulsates like a throbbing heart. Swirling synth lines add a layer of spacey intrigue, a welcome touch considering the track's relentless drive.A promising start for Academeia, "Landing" and the rest of "Transparent World" launch on June 21st via the newly formed label. https://soundcloud.com/atypikalmusikhttps://soundcloud.com/academeia https://www.instagram.com/atypikalmusikhttps://www.instagram.com/academeia._https://academeia.bandcamp.comFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.itsdelayed.comhttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed

Node Recordings returns with another great collection of techno tracks on the Falling Textures EP. The Spanish Label, with its very coherent identity in titles, artwork, and sound, presents another 5-track EP that celebrates techno.Our premiere track is from none other than Italian mental techno expert and Acquario resident Viels. “Exponential” is a testament to Viels’ mind-boggling and energetic high-class techno. Staying true to the hypnotic realms of the genre, the track also has an industrial and highly generative appeal. The track’s specialty lies in the intriguing interplay of two distinct sound elements that haunt you from both near and far, and this is the absolute strength of this track. Talking about captivating music and how a sense of hypnosis might be created: here we have a perfect example of it. “Exponential” is carried by powerful waves of sound that instill a spiraling and exponential effect, playing with the listener’s mind. This track is engineered to sweep you away into other spheres, only to bring you back and sweep you away again.The 5-tracker “Falling Textures” will be released on May 29th and features tracks from talent like Acaera, Aögram, RPTLS, and Sam Wilson.https://soundcloud.com/vielshttps://soundcloud.com/nodebarcelonahttps://www.instagram.com/viels_eop/https://www.instagram.com/node_barcelona/Write up by: https://soundcloud.com/theresa-appletreeFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.itsdelayed.comhttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed
Paris-based artist Lina Filipovich is set to release her third album, Music for an Imaginary Dancefloor. This album ventures into the intriguing space where club rhythms meet abstract, experimental sounds. Written between June and December 2022, the LP emerged from improvisations on analog synthesizers and is characterized by its dynamic energy and rich, layered textures.Our premiere today, "Silver Ghost," combines atonal drones and atmospheric elements to create a moody, cinematic experience. The track's gritty, bleepy downtempo vibe flirts with the experimental, making it perfect for listeners who appreciate intricate, thought-provoking music. Music for an Imaginary Dancefloor will be available on May 24 via Blank Mind.We are delighted to also premiere the video for “Silver Ghost” through our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XJGVqgUtQiohttps://soundcloud.com/linafilipovichhttps://www.instagram.com/linafilipovich/https://linafilipovich.bandcamp.comhttps://soundcloud.com/blankmindlabelhttps://www.instagram.com/blankmindlabelhttps://blankmindlabel.bandcamp.comFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.itsdelayed.comhttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed
We've followed the journeys of many artists, and seeing them evolve and explore new avenues of expression is truly inspiring. One such artist is Ina Kacz, a Berlin/Tbilisi-based producer and DJ. We're thrilled to introduce you to her new imprint, Aneelhi Rec, and its inaugural release: her five-track EP, "Endless.""Endless" showcases Kacz's versatility. She dips into halftime on "Days Off" and flirts with trance on "Similitude." But the EP primarily resides in energetic, rolling, off-kilter techno. Our premiere for today, "New Grounds," perfectly embodies the energy Kacz crafts on the record. "New Grounds" is a powerhouse track, brimming with intricate details that flit between two intertwining sequences. Subtle tweaks and masterful percussion work build an irresistible groove that feels both cosmic and grounded. Perhaps the title - "New Grounds," serves as an analogy for the label itself – a fresh platform for Kacz and the talented artists in her circle."New Grounds" and the "Endless" EP mark a new chapter for Ina Kacz's music and the dawn of Aneelhi Records, out on May 16. https://soundcloud.com/inakacz https://soundcloud.com/aneelhi-rechttps://www.instagram.com/inakacz/https://www.instagram.com/aneelhi_rec/ Write by: https://soundcloud.com/gilleswasserman Follow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.itsdelayed.comhttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed
Only a handful of producers can stay true to a genre while dodging mediocrity and clichés. One such producer is Jaime Romero, aka Estrato Aurora, a Valencia native who's been our favorite for years. His productions are warped, edgy, and perennially inventive, inspiring countless producers to follow his unique path – a true trendsetter.Today, Estrato Aurora takes the wheel and revisits Hiver's track "Time Lapse" from On Board Music's Point C compilation (released three years ago). The Valencian maestro dismantles the original's heady, trippy, low-slung rumble, crafting a hypnotic halftime odyssey. A warm, melancholic analog synth melody cuts through the murky groove, persistently driving the entire track forward.Balancing these contrasting elements within a single track is a challenge, and crafting something so recognizable that it works across various DJ sets and settings is even more impressive. But Jaime pulls it off effortlessly, keeping things fresh and engaging.Estrato Aurora's remix joins Erika, Polygonia, Patrick Russell, and Forest On Stasys, on what promises to be a stellar release from the consistently impressive On Board Music. Point C - Remixes drops April 26th.https://soundcloud.com/lovebashttps://soundcloud.com/on-board-musichttps://www.instagram.com/estrato_aurora/https://www.instagram.com/on_boardmusic/Write up by https://soundcloud.com/gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.itsdelayed.comhttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed
Hame's new EP, "Almost Home," is a deeply personal exploration inspired by his life journey. After leaving home in 2008, Hame embarked on a search for purpose, navigating uncertain paths that often left him feeling lost. Music, however, remained a constant source of comfort. From childhood piano lessons to late-night sessions with Ableton, creating music became synonymous with finding a sense of belonging.The EP is a culmination of these experiences, with each track expressing a different facet of Hame's emotional landscape. Our premiere for today, the track "Wind" features warm, analog pads that build into a steady groove, carrying the listener on a wave of positive energy. Ethereal vocals and a beautiful sequence elevate the track further, creating a sense of hope and optimism. It's a reminder that even on a challenging journey, there's always a chance to find peace and a sense of renewal."Wind" and the rest of the "Almost Home" EP will be released on April 26 on a French record label, Noire & Blanche.https://soundcloud.com/hame-compathyhttps://soundcloud.com/noireblanchehttps://www.instagram.com/hame.compathy/https://www.instagram.com/noire_x_blanche/Follow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.itsdelayed.comhttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed
This week, in our "Delayed with..." series, we're veering into the house music lane. Just as the sun starts to linger a bit longer, Kaap, a core member of Amsterdam-based collective De Lichting, guides us through a journey of classic house tunes perfectly suited for these "still shy" but splendidly sunny days. It's a trip back to NYC's legendary Cielo in the early 2000s, where DJs pushed perfectly tuned Funktion-One sound system to its limits on nights like this. Remember those epic breakdance battles erupting in the middle of the floor? Yeah, that's the energy Kaap captures.With Kaap at the helm, expect a pulse-quickening, mood-lifting mix tailor-made for your next rooftop rendezvous.https://soundcloud.com/kaapofficialhttps://www.instagram.com/kaap.jpghttps://kaap.bandcamp.comFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.itsdelayed.comhttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed

Today is a special day as we continue celebrating the second release on our burgeoning Never Late label, from the likes of Swiss based producer, Mjulev. Clouds are the Better Birds is an emotive, textured ambient exploration through the mind and musical musings of Carlo Thommen aka Mjulev. Born through introspective sessions, and afternoons of staring at the sky and world as it passes by, the music ebbs and flows ever so smoothly. Much like a cloud on a windy day.To mark this special occasion, he’s created a hybrid mix for us that evokes all those emotions and more. Our collective love affair with Ambient and all its flavors only grows deeper at this point, thus we couldn’t be happier to release an album like Mjulev’s.Track list:Hybrid Mix (Live Ableton loops / Tracks)Entropy8 - Tomas JirkuLet It Go - TraumprinzGaya #2 - Tom Leclerc & WILDSoundscapes - HeavenchordYOU - Nadia StruiwighB1.

Sounds and scenes progress, mature, evolve, all synonyms for the same energy. The energy that surrounds the creation and impetus of a burgeoning idea or a bleeding edge of art. Change. The constant clashing of influences from everywhere and nowhere. Especially now more than ever, as everyone is battered with a barrage of ideas and trends that appear as quickly as they disappear. It’s hard to pick apart the impactful bits but to Vardae we look as a harbinger of quality changes. Today’s pick lands on his seemingly effortless foray into half-time as we land on Captivate from the forth-coming, “Dance with the spirits” EP. It’s a raucous affair, and contains all the bits you’d want from a track that will split tempo, and get dancers to sway like seaweed. From syncopated, off-kilter percussion, to long developing breakdowns, the detailed textures and minute changes get even the most jaded listener going. This EP, coupled with his Mostra set, wow. One to watch out for."Captivate", and the rest of the ‘Dance with the Spirits’ EP will be released on Konstrukt, April 19th.@vardaemusic@konstrukt-5www.instagram.com/vardae_music/www.instagram.com/konstrukt__/Write up by https://soundcloud.com/huedjFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.itsdelayed.comhttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed
Rarely do musical collaborations like today’s premiere come around. More often than not it’s a pair of artists teaming up, perhaps a trio here or there. To have four, marks a special occasion. For their third ‘Sphere’ release of the series, Munich based imprint IO Records continues the practice of looking inwards. As a veritable mix and match of all the founders plus a few close friends equate to a jam packed 14 track volume that manages to showcase each artist's unique sound. While simultaneously showing off their collective talents to work together seamlessly.Breaking Force brings together a plethora of elements as the dub influences leap out immediately. Setting the tone for the duration through to the breakdown and providing the main melodic touch. Additionally, rich textures and tweaked synths are expertly layered on top. This combination with the snippy hi-hats and snares provide a genre bending tune that blurs the line between bass, half-time, dub and everything in between.Breaking Force and the rest of the ‘Sphere Vol. 3’ release will be available, April 30th.@ftp_doctor@tenziasounds@polygonia@dycide@iorecswww.instagram.com/ftp_doctor/www.instagram.com/_tenzia_/www.instagram.com/_polygonia_/www.instagram.com/dycide/www.instagram.com/io.records/Write up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.itsdelayed.comwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayed
Imagine a smoke filled valley… the only visible mark of a civilization being a single path ahead. A source of hope and inspiration, beckoning only to wither into the darkness and depths. Slowly you march forward, each step echoing through space like a shamanic drum strike, the footfalls catching and building off each other as if seemingly competing for your attention. On and on the journey goes, but ah! In the distance, there appears a faint light, pulsating slowly. With each step, it’s luminescence and your energy grows, there may be salvation near…If music could paint a picture, then I imagine it would be something similar to the above for JxF aka two Delayed favorites, Javier Marimon & F-on. Their contribution to the 8th installment of the French imprint, Accents Records VA series truly has a feeling of gravitas. One that we love, oh so much. In addition to Javier, and F-on, we’d be remiss in not mentioning the time and effort that Johan Bonnefoy aka Sub Accent has taken to assemble this incredible collection of artists. A majority of which we’ve had the pleasure to work with over the years. So many familiar names, so many wonderful people!02, and the entirety of Accent Records VA 008 will be released, April 22nd.JxF@javiermarimon@f-ondj@accentsrecordswww.instagram.com/javiermrmn/www.instagram.com/accentsrecords/Write up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.itsdelayed.comwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayed

Picture yourself cranking the car in the dead of winter, then blasting onto the autobahn – that's the energy Psyk brings.To accompany the mix, Theresa chatted with Psyk, discussing his recent release with Orbe on Luke Slater's Mote Evolver imprint, his Non Series label, the current state of techno, and more.Read the interview by Theresa Bäumel: https://www.itsdelayed.com/delayed-blog/artist-of-the-moment-psykhttps://soundcloud.com/psykhttps://www.instagram.com/psyk____/https://nonseries.bandcamp.comhttps://soundcloud.com/theresa-appletreehttps://www.instagram.com/theresa_cpb/Follow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.itsdelayed.comhttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed
Lb Honne's 'Homage to Daylight' is woven with unsettling beauty, evoking the spirit of David Lynch's Blue Velvet. Warm, sustained analog pads wash over the listener, thick and melancholic like the Louisiana air itself. A lush, throbbing breakbeat pulses beneath, mirroring the hidden tension lurking beneath the veneer of Lynch's idyllic suburban setting. A poignant vocal sample adds a raw vulnerability, redolent of Sandy's fragile innocence amidst the encroaching darkness.Halfway down the road, the bright and uplifting arpeggio slices through the melancholic haze like a burst of sunshine after a long and dreary day. It leaves the listener hopeful and optimistic, wondering if it's the dawn breaking and a promise of a brighter tomorrow. “Homage to Daylight” is part of Lb Honne's upcoming "present future / here there" LP, out on April 15 via Project Indigo.https://soundcloud.com/lbhonnehttps://soundcloud.com/projindigohttps://www.instagram.com/lbhonne/https://www.instagram.com/projindigo/Write up by: https://soundcloud.com/gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.itsdelayed.comhttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed
bleu noir. First and foremost, a friendship composed of Edouard-Marc and Bastien. Two companions who, in their distinct singularities, come together to converge towards a common universe. Complementarity is created from the beginning of the project to the finishing touches of their musical collaborations. A sincere, imaginative, and heartfelt approach. Random but shared experiences, such as numerous musical events ranging from concerts to festivals, inspire them. All of this leads to beautiful creations like this EP named: Naviguer à vue.“Naviguer à vue” is the story in a fictitious and picturesque imagination, of a collective adventure taking place on a boat. The construction and launching of it, welcoming "Hordes" of people, are represented by "Recherche hivernale". A long aquatic journey through "Brume épaisse", filled with “Emergences of details”, as beautiful as they are stressful. Presented to the people on the boat is an internal and collective struggle, "Psychomachia". A battle between vice and virtue, between the humble human and the one of a self-centered and selfish society. “Inno”, floating on the surface and swimming, between two worlds, unable to leave the fluid and yet aware that it exists. A track that could have been called “Innolude”. The sound translations of these different emotions and sensitivities, vectorized by “Diversions currents then landscapes”, make this EP a true journey.Today's premiere is the second track from this great release, "Brume épaisse." This eerie, aquatic techno odyssey is defined by a powerful bassline that builds tension like The Marin, bringing thick coastal fog over a southern seaside city."Brume épaisse" boasts a delicate yet murky atmosphere, perfectly grasping the essence of a late-night after-hours track.“Naviguer à vue” EP is set for release in the second half of April.https://soundcloud.com/lowvolumerandomizationhttps://soundcloud.com/user-676721263https://www.instagram.com/lowvolumerandomization/https://www.instagram.com/bleunoirr/Follow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.itsdelayed.comhttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed
The Berlin-based and Rødhåd-owned label WSNWG - Back to Zero releases its first-ever compilation, and it’s a selection of dancefloor-approved techno, the techno of the good, intense, “we like to lose our minds” - kind. Kameliia from Oslo contributes with “Above Me and You,” the alluring voices of a siren that compellingly suck the dancer into a different reality. And a fevery one that is. While the track adheres to rather classic techno structures, featuring a dreamy break at its core, it’s the entrancing vocals, the rhythmic -and heavily galloping- drive, and the siren ambience combined, that make a strong impact and let the heart rate go up. Riveting from the first listen, with a hint of mystery, this track is embedding itself in one’s mind and it’s equally hard to withdraw from its physical pull. “Above Me and You” is poised to become a staple during the deeper and more climactic moments of sweaty gatherings in dimly lit basements.https://soundcloud.com/kameliia-musichttps://www.instagram.com/kameliia.p/Write up by:https://soundcloud.com/theresa-appletreeFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.itsdelayed.comhttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed
The internet loves a good music recommendation, and we couldn't agree more. We wouldn't have the constant stream of fresh music we share without people turning us on to new artists. It's a never-ending cycle of discovery.Today's premiere, "Freezing Point" by Warsaw producer bijū, exemplifies this perfectly. This track and his upcoming "phase transition" EP were, in a way, influenced by the music we showcase here at Delayed. "Freezing Point" lands in our dark, halftime, and experimental wheelhouse. bijū's playful arrangement takes you on a journey, incorporating eerie and even sinister synth lines over a hypnotic halftime groove. "phase transition" EP will be self-released on March 31.https://soundcloud.com/b1juhttps://www.instagram.com/biju.biju_/https://biju.bandcamp.comFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.itsdelayed.comhttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed
"Silv'ahn," the new EP by Martinou, is a deep exploration of artistic expression. Drawing inspiration from field recordings in Sweden's Skåne region, Martinou forges a connection with the natural world, amplifying the essence of stone, salt, and wood. The result is a signature Martinou style: minimal yet emotionally resonant tracks built on a mysteriously pulsating groove.Our premiere today, "Boulder Ridge," is propelled by a robust, rumbling groove underpinning a subtle synth sequence and a melancholic yet simple melody that burrows into your mind from the first listen."Silv'ahn" EP is coming out on March 29 via Melifera Records.https://soundcloud.com/martinou3000https://soundcloud.com/melifera_recordshttps://www.instagram.com/martinou3000/https://www.instagram.com/meliferarecords/

Step into cinematic electronica with Polycarp boss Simon Ferdinand's latest creation, the 'Six Months' EP. Born from a journey spanning Sicily, Baltimore, and Zanzibar, this musical odyssey encapsulates the essence of his travels and experiences. Today, we're excited to premiere 'Broken,' the lead track from the EP. 'Broken' sets the stage with its enigmatic fusion of hazy, glitched-out jazz loops, expertly obscured and processed throughout. Ferdinand's masterful manipulation of loops and tapes ensures a constant element of surprise, never allowing for a moment of predictability. With a nod to the experimentalism and minimalism of Jan Jelinek's early 2000s work, 'Broken' creates a similar depth and complexity, showcasing a unique playfulness of sound manipulation.The 'Six Months' EP will debut on vinyl on March 22, followed by a digital release on May 9.https://soundcloud.com/simonferdinandhttps://soundcloud.com/polycarp-recordshttps://www.instagram.com/simonferdinandmusic/https://www.instagram.com/polycarprecords/Follow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.itsdelayed.comhttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed
Today is a special one in the Delayed world as we’re overjoyed to premiere a tune from the second release on our label, Never Late. The culmination of many months of work, the release day is rapidly approaching, and we could be none the happier. For our second musical guest, we look to Basel-based artist Mjulev and his intimate album titled ‘Clouds Are The Better Birds’. Spanning 8 tracks, Mjulev guides listeners gently into his auditory psyche as he states about the album, "Clouds are the better birds - It becomes clear only through observing the clouds how slowly they float up there, so detached from everything that drives us down here. Truly liberated from the forward push and the hustle and bustle, from left to right, from branch to branch, always on guard, not to be accidentally eaten by a cat.They just float, sometimes darker, sometimes lighter, sometimes faster, sometimes slower. When they meet, they merge and then continue floating as if they had always been one. Looking up feels so timeless. A longing that cannot be satisfied down here. It is omnipresent, but sometimes I manage, just for brief moments, but these are enough to understand what it would be like to be a cloud.The special thing about the album for me is that it was not created in situations where I was a bird. It was created in moments where I had the headspace to be a cloud, and if it helps others to be like a cloud even just for a short time, then it was worth it, because these moments have become very rare.”Our premiere, ‘Birds On Acid’ is the final track on the release, a rhythmic come-down that tugs at the heartstrings.

Bongos, and soaring pads take presence in the foreground, while the upbeat percussion bounces playfully along keeping things high. Forest On Stasys’ innate talent to create these moments and energies within his tracks make them incredibly versatile to DJs and listeners alike.Autóctono and the rest of the Neotrópico EP will be released on the 8th of April.@forestonstasys@technologiaorganicawww.instagram.com/forest_on_stasys/www.instagram.com/technologiaorganica/Write up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.itsdelayed.comwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayed
Celebrations are in store, as we’re overjoyed to see the lovely Argentinian label Danza Nativa hit its fifth birthday in stride. From the start, the imprint helmed by Alderaan, Forest On Stasys, and Kyntral has been a proverbial force to be reckoned with, providing many a favorite tune over the years. We’ve been following them closely, and have enjoyed the progression of sound, a progression which is evident in their seminal 5 Years of Danza Nativa compilation. Featuring contributions from Anthony Linell, Amandra, echologist, Plants Army Revovler, Polygonia, Dino Sabatin, Luigi Tozzi, Claudio PRC, Daniel[i], Vanoni, Shoal, Vera Logdanidi, as well as all three founders, the compilation packs an incredible punch and speaks volumes to how well respected the label has become over the years.Our premiere comes from fellow New York based artist, Brendon Moeller and his echologist moniker. The raucous Mobil comes charging out of the gate with an upbeat tempo and dubby pads, providing a dose of energy to pick listeners up. As the tune progresses, growling synths and a litany of percussion, and textures pop in and out of focus, providing a jazzy ensemble to keep things moving.Danza Nativa’s 5 year celebration compilation will be released both digitally and for the first time ever from the label on vinyl, the 15th of April. Congratulations to Alderann, Forest On Stasys, and Kyntral, here’s to 5 more years of Danza Nativa!@brendonmoeller@danza-nativawww.instagram.com/brendonmoeller/www.instagram.com/danzanativa/Write up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.itsdelayed.comwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayed
Fresh up on the docket this fine Wednesday morning is from the latest release on the supreme Qeone imprint. Helmed by Polygonia, as one of her many projects, she strives to release only quality and we are no strangers to supporting her endeavors. As part of the seventh release, she looks to Mexican producer Gerardo Torres aka MirrorLake and his club friendly Moa EP. Chock full to the gills with a swelling combination of dub and deep techno, the four tracker is another excellent addition to Qeone’s catalog.Flora Imaginaria leads off the Moa ep, setting a tone for what is to come later. Breakish percussion joined by dubby chords gives a backdrop to a delightfully dancey affair. Images of hazey clubs and nights out abound as MirrorLake’s swelling melodies ebb and flow.Flora Imaginaria and the remainder of the Moa EP will be released on March 20th.@mirror_lake@qeonewww.instagram.com/qeone.rec/Write up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.itsdelayed.comwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayed
Azu Tiwaline is an artist creating new worlds for us all to hear and see each other within. Conjuring a sense of cosmic belonging within life’s maelstrom, her music is an extension of her being transformed into abundant rhythmical energy - beloved for her wonderful ability to channel vast inner realms into the outward joys of dance & movement.

From the outset, the mix propels you through undulating grooves, resembling cosmic waves that transport the listener through an intricate musical narrative. Azu skillfully guides the voyage, making stops at diverse realms that traverse infectious dub-driven breaks, hypnotic techno landscapes, and experimental ambient dimensions.With each twist and turn, the listener awaits the next stop in this extraordinary voyage, where musical boundaries are redefined.read the interview with Azu Tiwaline by Theresa Bäumel: https://www.itsdelayed.com/delayed-blog/artist-of-the-moment-azu-tiwaline-delayed-x-mostrahttps://soundcloud.com/azu-tiwalinehttps://www.instagram.com/azu.tiwaline/www.mostra.barcelona/cat/@human_clubinterview by: https://soundcloud.com/theresa-appletreeFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.itsdelayed.comwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayed

There must be something in the Barcelonian water, as today we’re happy to premiere a track from a recently developed anonymous project called Bastien. Formed as a new expression of music from the Spanish cities rich scene, the source unknown, yet the quality incredible as always. The 10 track release is a masterclass in rich, emotive Ambient that marks the second fantastic release on Spanish label ‘Red Edge’. With whom we’ve worked with in the past to premiere a prior Absis release.Ralentir starts off strong with a bouncing melody, flipping up and down, giving movement and a lighter atmosphere joined by a few disembodied voices providing an otherworldly effect. This effect is amplified by a uniquely elongated bass line that takes a listener farther out into the experimental planes, and contrasts nicely with the bright melodies.Ralentir and the remainder of the ‘Temps Boro’ release will be out on Red Edge, April 8th.@red-edge-labelWrite up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.itsdelayed.comwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayed
So Oishi crafts music that evokes the paradoxical nature of the Earth's lithosphere: a surface serenity belying a churning, vibrant undercurrent. The upcoming "Lithosphere" EP exemplifies this quality, offering four distinct terrains for sonic exploration. Our premiere today, the title track "Lithosphere," embodies this dichotomy perfectly. Ethereal whispers hang in the air, like the faint tremors felt beneath the Earth's crust. The eerily beautiful atmosphere is layered over a deep, rumbling groove. Glassy pads shimmer like subterranean crystals, while bass stabs punctuate the soundscape with the percussive force of tectonic shifts. This subtle tension between tranquility and subterranean energy makes "Lithosphere" perfect for those seeking a unique after-hours experience.The entire "Litosphere" EP arrives on March 8th via Something Happening Somewhere.https://soundcloud.com/sooishihttps://soundcloud.com/sohasohttps://www.instagram.com/so_oishi_/https://www.instagram.com/sohaso/Follow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.itsdelayed.comhttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed
‘’Once upon an Icelandic Highway, my father and I embarked on an unforgettable journey. With a camera securely mounted to our jeep, we ventured out into the vast untouched wilderness to capture Iceland's other-worldly landscapes on film. The rhythmic hum of the tires against the road became our soundtrack as the terrain unfolded. Each twist and turn of the highway revealed breathtaking panoramas - from rugged mountains and cascading waterfalls to frozen glaciers and majestic fjords. On our return, I got to work editing a selection of the best footage. Later, I created a soundtrack that encapsulated the lunar-like surface of this incredible place and the repetitive rhythm of the car cruising along the road. In dedicating this release to my father, I pay homage to a man whose passion for the natural world was unparalleled. In loving memory of Brendan Joyce OBE.’’ - Joseph S JoyceAll proceeds from this release will be donated to Action for Pulmonary Fibrosis.https://soundcloud.com/josephjoycehttps://soundcloud.com/default-positionFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.itsdelayed.comhttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed
Down under we look today for our premiere on Melbourne based label, Aythekos. They’ve joined forces with Liam Costar, for a new long player titled, Pertinax (month 1). Rounding out the release are three remixes by LSS, Anthony Linell, and Claudio PRC.To Live, To Perish gets the Claudio PRC treatment as the Italian artist applies his signature spiraling take. Heavy, driving percussion keeps the energy high while the bass line worms its way in between, keeping the listener entranced. Saw like synths grind over the top, providing a nice range of movement so as to not let anything get too stale. Not that it could ever, Claudio’s remixes and originals rarely seem to drag on, we could listen to them for hours, and have!Claudio’s remix, and the rest of Liam Costar’s Pertinax release will be released out into the world, March 7th.@claudioprc@aythekoswrite up by @huedjwww.instagram.com/claudioprc/www.instagram.com/aythekos/Follow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.itsdelayed.comwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayed
Ethereal inspirations are the name of today’s musical game as we look to Martin Respaut aka Foreign Material and his aptly titled, ‘Saturnian’ EP. Drawing inspiration from Saturnus, the god of time, transcendence and agriculture, Foreign Material has crafted a journey that moves seamlessly through the peaks and valleys of deep, hypnotic techno and beyond. On this EP, he’s also joined by Toffes Värld who provides a re-imagination of Saturnian Dub.Above Abysmal Rivers is the last but certainly not least track of the Saturnian EP. Coming in as the digital bonus, Foreign Material slows things down to a rhythmic 98 bpm, providing that chuggy low slung vibe that is all over our Delayed HQ. Nicely textured synths add to the movement, fending off the repetitiveness, while a glittering melody builds and our favorite melancholic pads round out the atmosphere.Foreign Material’s Saturnian EP will be released on the Navigare Audio imprint, March 29th.@foreignmaterial@navigare-audiowww.instagram.com/foreign_material_music/www.instagram.com/navigareaudio/Write up by @huedjFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.itsdelayed.comwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayed

The anticipation surrounding the forthcoming Mostra Festival is real, with only a few weeks remaining until music aficionados convene in the enchanting backdrop of Barcelona's Hangar and Castel De Montjuïc. In our ongoing collaboration with Mostra, we are thrilled to present the latest mix from an artist whose name resonates deeply within our community - Forest Drive West.Recorded live at last year's ExtraMostra event at Lolita, where Forest Drive West shared the stage with Ana Sola & Estrato Aurora (whose set we also had the pleasure of hosting) and Mostra's own Josh Hoppen, this set epitomizes the artist's mastery cultivated over the past decade.What unfolds in this recording is a pulsating amalgamation of tribal, bass, halftime, and techno, a signature style meticulously crafted by Forest Drive West ever since his debut EP, System in 2016. The auditory journey commences with an immediate liftoff, as infectious grooves propel the listener into an interstellar expedition akin to a spacecraft hurtling towards unexplored realms.

Today’s premiere lands squarely on the shoulders of Peter Kersten aka Lawrence. Our long-term love affair with his work hasn’t changed a bit through the years, as his music is always in the crates. Additionally to see his latest as a return to the legendary Smallville, only good things must await.In its entirety, the Gravity Hill EP encompasses all that we’ve come to love about Lawrences’ work, the wobbly bass lines, ethereal floaty moments, all wrapped in a minimal, pristine percussion package. The groove, the essence, leads to wonderful moments both on and off the dance floor. Subtly is the name of this game.Stargazer rounds out the EP which, as the label states, shifts back to a more straight, dance floor oriented feel via a twitchy acid bass, circling resonant synth licks, hypnotic textures and a swinging drum groove. Definitely one for those early morning vibes, as the sun rises on another day and the people party on.Stargazer, and the rest of the Gravity Hill EP will be released on March 1st.@lawrence_dial@smallville-recordsWrite up by @huedjwww.instagram.com/lawrence_dial/www.instagram.com/smallville_records/Follow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.itsdelayed.comwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayedwww.youtube.com/@_____delayed
Melding house and tech flavours across Naarm’s clubscape is Spincycle, the infamous party run by Bex & Terri. Their inaugural release, ‘Wake Me Up’ joins forces of Crayon pioneer Mark Ambrose & Mieka du Franx.Built on Ambrose’s bouncy piano-organ stabs and shuffling drums, the programming is attuned by a restrained yet precise character. Chunky percussion, elevates the levels of deep house excellence, rocking like a hefty cradle imbuing an infectious groove. Mieka’s voice slices through, “wake me up” reminding us not to get too hypnotized. Listeners embracing each of these levels will have body and soul rewarded. Be careful as darting dancers will be bouncing off the wall with cheeky smiles when those chords hit speakers.A deep dive into the collaboration reveals the pair met at a gig in 2016. They connected over their passion of underground music before jumping in the studio. It makes one wonder, as it all gels so smoothly, if Mieka’s scintillating vocals or Ambrose’s playing came first. Either way, it gives reason to the alluring soothing effect of ‘Wake Me Up’. On the flipside is the Dreaming Dub which turns the original into a floating version with pulsating bassline.‘Wake Me Up’ is out on February 22.Write up by https://soundcloud.com/iamdanimotohttps://soundcloud.com/mark-ambrose-traxhttps://soundcloud.com/spincycle-recshttps://www.instagram.com/markambrose_skymaster/https://www.instagram.com/spincycle___/Follow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.itsdelayed.comhttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayed/https://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed
In this week's installment of the "Delayed with..." series, we're excited to present you with the creative world of a familiar luminary. Moy Santana, one of the masterminds of Sungate record label and one-half of the dynamic Fase Bipolar duo, emerges not only as a talented producer and exceptional DJ but also as a curator shaping the vibrant Spanish underground techno scene. Moy's impact over recent years, whether through his collaborative efforts with Fran at Sungate, the evocative Observatory podcast series, his original productions, or his mind-altering DJ sets, has been extraordinary.Today, we're thrilled to unveil one of Moy's "mind-benders," meticulously crafted for our series. While the term "journey" often feels clichéd when describing DJ mixes, Moy's mix effortlessly transcends this label. At its core, this mix embodies the essence of techno. Yet, Moy seamlessly introduces unexpected sonic elements, traversing through dub house, electro, tribal, acid, and back to the depths of techno. The sheer agility with which Moy manipulates these nuances is breathtaking, demonstrating how subtle shifts can redefine genre boundaries while remaining steadfast to the mix's overarching narrative.https://soundcloud.com/moysantanahttps://www.instagram.com/moy_santana/Write up by: https://soundcloud.com/gilleswassermanFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.itsdelayed.comhttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed

Imagine a quiet forest path ahead, flanked by trees slowly swaying in a gentle breeze. The sounds, and smells of a natural place unsullied by a frequent human touch. The birds chirping, a stream nearby gurgles along as it continues its march towards the sea, a tranquil place is this.

The Profundo Collective is releasing the second edition of the "Ritmos de la Reunión" compilation, which features names like Trøm Borg, Adhémar, Morpha, Federico Corrado, Hod, and Doctrina Natura. Today's spotlight falls upon the latter, whose track "Incarnation" serves as the grand finale of this diverse release.Doctrina Natura, hailing from Seville, crafts a steady, pulsating groove that acts as the bedrock for his track. Imagine it as the beating heart of a divine being, upon which he layers ethereal pads and melodies that shimmer like celestial stardust. These elements linger and intertwine, creating a magic that feels both grounded and otherworldly. It's an apt closing track, embodying the essence of "incarnation" – the divine brought to life in a tangible form, just as the compilation itself brings together the diverse talents of these international artists."Ritmos de la Reunión volume 2" is coming out on February 12.https://soundcloud.com/doctrinanaturahttps://soundcloud.com/profundocollectivehttps://www.instagram.com/doctrina_natura/https://www.instagram.com/profundocollective/Follow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.itsdelayed.comhttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayed/https://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed

No strangers to Delayed, our premiere for today comes in the shape of a groovy number from Yard One aka Jordan Bruce and Larry Jones. Throughout the years we’ve seen and heard them create wonderful narratives through ambient, field recording driven sketches, all the way through downtempo and into the beat driven realm. One Day falls squarely in the latter as the tune unfurls and evolves expertly over its 10 minute duration. Warm kicks and an enveloping bass line provide a strong foundation throughout for the light chimes and synths to bring an almost wind-like movement of musicality that plays well off the percussion.One Day is joined by a remix from Hong Kong based producer, Ocean Lam and two other originals, ‘Twinkle Tones’ and ‘Dirt Tool’ to round out the release. Which will be released on Tact Recordings the 2nd of February.Write up by @huedj@yard-one-music@tact-recordingswww.instagram.com/yardonemusic/Follow us on social media:@itsdelayedlinktr.ee/delayedwww.itsdelayed.comwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayed/www.youtube.com/@_____delayed

For our musical explorations today, we look to the west coast of Canada, and the newly formed, NAGA imprint. The label is spreading its proverbial wings for the first time under the expert guidance of IHA and looks to fellow Canadians, Siadic for their first release.

For today’s premiere, we look to the Italians and precisely in the form of Marco Shuttle. He’s been releasing quite a few tracks via his own imprints, and this release marks his first under the MSP banner. One with a dance floor centered focus. Bella Di Giorno is a tribal mover that undulates and grows, the drums providing that all important foundation for the melody to weave through. One that is intentionally muted and restrained, adding an air of mystery and introspection to the track. These muted tones provide a delicate counterpoint to the robust tribal drums, creating a balance between the primal and the contemplative.Bella Di Giorno and the rest of Marco Shuttle’s MSP01 release will be out on January 16th.@marco_shuttlewww.instagram.com/marcoshuttleFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedwww.itsdelayed.comwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayed/www.youtube.com/@_____delayedlinktr.ee/delayed

As the year winds down, we wanted to send you off with a bang – a deep, rumbling bang delivered straight from the Utrecht underground by the one and only Vand. We've known this sonic sorcerer for ages, watching him transform from a bright Dutch talent to an artist whose output has been recognized and cherished in underground scenes worldwide. Over the years, Vand has made a reputation for himself as a producer who is equally prolific working alongside like-minded piers like Bas Dobbelaer, Alfred Czital, and Shoal, as well as working solo where he conjures deep, dubby adventures that twist and turn like Escher sketches, always one step ahead of the dancefloor drone.Releases on labels like Something Happening Somewhere, Nyame, Alpenglühen, Harmony Rec, and Konstrukt speak for themselves. Speaking of labels, Vand just launched ISOTOOP, a sonic beacon birthed from the ashes of a great event collective (initially founded by Van Anh and featuring Ben Buitendijk, Shoal, and Koen Hoets). Their debut, a Vand & Shoal juggernaut called Voal, has been on heavy rotation in our HQ and has found its way to crates of many DJs worldwide.With that fresh fire in our ears, we present you with Vand's mix for us – a darkroom dub journey built for late-night explorations. Buckle up because this isn't a stroll in the park; it's a 200km/h Autobahn voyage on cruise control, smooth as silk yet peppered with enough twists and turns to keep your heart hammering. Deep bass dives will massage your soul, dubby echoes will swirl around your head, and when you think you've got it figured out, Vand throws in a curveball that'll leave you grinning like a Cheshire cat.This mix is a reminder that the best journeys often take you to unexpected places. And hey, who knows what 2024 holds for Vand and ISOTOOP? One thing's for sure: we'll be right here, front row and center, ready to lose ourselves in the sound.write up by: https://soundcloud.com/gilleswassermanhttps://soundcloud.com/vandmusichttps://www.instagram.com/vandtorFollow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.itsdelayed.comhttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayed/https://linktr.ee/delayedhttps://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed
In time for the holiday season is a gift from the Belgium based imprint, Initiate Records and their ‘Winter Nights’ compilation. The release clocks in at an impressive 28 tracks centered around a common idea as the label states, ‘we asked the artists to follow the theme of “long winter nights” and to translate that emotion into music. What results is a varied compilation going from lightness to darkness.’Our premiere for today was born from the mind of Box 5ive. With prior releases on Well Street, Comic Sans, and Twin Systems, the London artist is steadily growing a solid repertoire. Starting off with disembodied voices and warm bass lines, Duty Free evokes whispery scenes of wind swept roads, those moments of travel late at night, where none are around. The ever present serenity, and introspection as sounds are muted by snow, the only companion, the thoughts within one's mind.Duty Free, and the rest of the Winter Nights compilation will be released on the 23rd, of December.Write up by @huedj@box_5ive@initiate_conceptwww.instagram.com/box5ive/www.instagram.com/initiate.concept/Follow us on social media:@itsdelayedwww.itsdelayed.comwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayed/www.youtube.com/@_____delayedlinktr.ee/delayed

Laima Adelaide’s musical creations draw inspiration from the organic elements of water and air, and are transformed into profound techno compositions of the deeper kind. And hence it's no surprise that the Spanish deep techno label Hypnotic Motion is a perfect home for her creations. “For a Time” stands as a compelling deep techno EP, with 4 tracks exhibiting versatility across a variety of environments.Presented here is the title track from the four-piece EP, where “For a Time” unfurls gradually into a delicate dancefloor masterpiece. Its spellbinding synths create a whimsical atmosphere and inducing a floating sensation that certainly sends warm shivers down the spine. This composition is a testament to Laima’s roots in classical studies, as her skillful orchestration comes to the forefront.One of Laima’s distinct strengths lies in her ability to avoid conflating power with force, opting instead for a patient and subtle buildup. Through a nuanced treatment of drums and the emergence of translucent sounds, she crafts a track that still resonates powerfully on the dance floor, proving that impact doesn’t demand exuberance. ” For a time” is for the dreamers and contemplators on the dancefloor and hold them in warm, sublime embrace.Written and mixed by Laima AdelaideArtwork by Murdah GraphicsMastered by Mattias Fridellwrite up by: https://soundcloud.com/theresa-appletree@amliahttps://soundcloud.com/hypnoticmotionrecordshttps://www.instagram.com/laimaadelaide/https://www.instagram.com/hypnoticmotion/Follow us on social media:https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.itsdelayed.comhttps://www.facebook.com/itsdelayedhttps://www.instagram.com/_____delayed/https://www.youtube.com/@_____delayedhttps://linktr.ee/delayed

To the French, do we look, for today's premiere as label founder Johan Bonnefoy returns to his own imprint Accents Records with an upcoming split EP.

Munich based IO records is rounding out 2023 in style with their final release of the year, ‘Cold To The Touch’ by audiovisual artist, Anthony O, aka Tenzia. As the label writes, “Anthony O, is a professional artist and music producer with a background in traditional and digital art.The focal point of the Tenzia project is to overcome conventional thought patterns and genre boundaries. It explores the intersection of opposites, engaging with the interplay between the aesthetic and the grotesque, organic and inorganic, positive and negative, both visually and acoustically.”Keeping in line with these themes, ‘Epiphany’ is a wonderfully unique entity. Defying any attempt to classify it, the track carries several different feelings depending on which voice or element your mind focuses on. Rolling percussion pings around, giving an almost dub or deep bass vibe, while the pads and flashing synths evoke dark, atonal techno moments. Combined, it’s like a mental breath of fresh air that breaks all molds.Epiphany and the rest of Tenzia’s EP will be released into the world via IO on December 13th.Write up by @huedj@tenziasounds@iorecswww.instagram.com/_tenzia_www.instagram.com/io.recordsFollow us on social media:@itsdelayedwww.itsdelayed.comwww.facebook.com/itsdelayedwww.instagram.com/_____delayed/www.youtube.com/@_____delayed

Delayed favorite IT-XPO is back with another addition to his constantly evolving catalog - “Ripple.” This time in the form of a six-track release at the intersection of deep house and dub techno - supplemented by an Lb Honne remix. The EP, named after a Grateful Dead song of the same name, arrives on UK-based Oleeva Records, which has featured releases from from artists including Sam Goku and Didacte, spanning across many shades of the house and techno spectrum, all with a more emotional flavor. “Untitled 049” is one of a few Fred P moments on “Ripple”, immediately getting percussive and builds up its airy, dubby tension throughout the first half, before cathartically releasing, and once again falling back into an extended breakdown that finally leads to a maintained irresistible groove that slowly disintegrates at the end of the track. As is the case with most IT-XPO releases, this one contains energies suitable for every stage of a party, and the remix shows us a darker, harder-hitting side of Lb Honne.

In the latest installment of our "Delayed with..." podcast series, we're thrilled to present a mix by the talented Edmondson. Hailing from Newcastle and now based in London, Edmondson's musical journey has taken him on adventures in Berlin and the scenic landscapes of southern France. His unique sound, deeply rooted in the UK's dynamic movements of the past two decades, has also drawn inspiration from far-reaching corners of the world.With releases on labels like Me Me Me and Hypercolour, as well as his very own imprint, Lissoms, Edmondson's music has found its way into eclectic sets across the spectrum. From boat parties to the legendary Berghain, his tracks have graced diverse dancefloors. Edmondson's passion for playing and collecting music since 2006 shines through in his DJ sets, which effortlessly traverse the sonic landscape. His mixes encompass a rich variety of genres, spanning from ambient to techno, weaving through the various shades of house, UK garage, neo-soul, disco, and modern minimal.Edmondson's latest mix for our podcast series is a masterfully curated, stylish musical narrative that gradually builds in energy with each passing chapter. It serves as the perfect soundtrack for a late-night drive through the rain-soaked streets of Manhattan, where the city's skyscrapers cast their luminous glow, and the urban pulse remains undeterred by the persistent rain. The mix skillfully strikes a balance between melancholy introspection and the irresistible grooves of a late-night adventure.When asked about his creative process for this mix, Edmondson's response offers a glimpse into the artistic mind behind the music: "I always like to think that a good mix has a natural flow embedded into it, almost like a day/night cycle. I used the first half to focus on combining some more delicate and introspective sounds (the kind which Delayed does such a good job of celebrating) and went a bit more off the cuff with some more deep & clubby stuff towards the end. I feel like autumn is always a fruitful time for music discovery as life moves back indoors, so I tried to make the kind of mix which I would hope to stumble upon for the colder days & nights."https://soundcloud.com/edmondsonhttps://www.instagram.com/edmondsonandon/https://www.facebook.com/edmondsonmusichttps://soundcloud.com/lissomshttps://lissomsxyz.bandcamp.comwww.itsdelayed.comwww.instagram.com/_____delayed/www.facebook.com/itsdelayed

First out of two of Ly Sander's 'Landing' album samplers released on Special place, the package presents two tracks both serviced with a dedicated remix that offer a deep yet often unheard insight into what dance music can mean. Preoccupation about the impact of mankind on the planet is nothing new, as the radio excerpt at the basis of 'Marching to where' clearly exposes. Nevertheless, climate change or the war in Ukraine remind us cruelly how access to food at a reasonable price is currently at stake for parts of the world's population albeit our heavy colonization of the earth. Perspectives are rather gloomy and this track exposes just that, with a historical perspective. Jacques Bon was kind enough to take on remixing duties. He has released music on an array of high-rated record labels including Tim Sweeney's seminal imprint, Beats In Space, Mule Musiq, Giegling, Kann, Live At Robert Johnson and Smallville Records. Not just a solo flier, Jacques also co-produced choice deep-diving joints with the likes of Christopher Rau and Chicago House pioneers, Virgo Four. And if it's difficult to leave aside the seriousness of the topic of this track Jacques brought some hope and sweetness to his mix as well as his dreamy atmosphere.

If one were to imagine that some kind of divine musical intelligence had sprinkled extra-special talent in a few places on Earth, it's tempting to think that Hanover must be one of those blessed spots. Surprising, right? Yes, Hanover, the somewhat dull northern German city known for its trade fairs, consistently produces one talented artist after another. And now, we have Andere, whose debut album, "Alles Andere," on Kein Rauch ohne Feuer, continues the narrative of deep, yet raw electronic music. "Shifter" aligns with this tradition while infusing it with a playful and energetic twist. This six-minute surprise story begins as an almost melancholic dancefloor gem and then evolves into a euphoric sensation. You don't need any external stimulants for this track, I assure you. It elicits a warm and fuzzy feeling, takes you on a rollercoaster of emotions, and eventually explodes into a moment of collective embrace and intense feelings, teetering on the line between ecstasy and overwhelming emotion. What makes this track special is that it has a steady development but a lot of surprises. At times you feel cornered, surrounded by the different sounds and then fully embraced. It's been a while since I've been this convinced about a dancefloor track. However, pigeonholing Andere as just a peak-time track producer would be an underestimate; the album demonstrates that. Like many artists from Hanover, Andere possesses that special nectar that allows him to excel across an eclectic range of styles.Write up by: https://soundcloud.com/theresa-appletreehttps://soundcloud.com/keinrauchohnefeuerhttps://soundcloud.com/hazudemahttps://www.instagram.com/kein_rauch_ohne_feuer/https://www.instagram.com/alles_andere_94/https://keinrauchohnefeuer.bandcamp.comwww.itsdelayed.comwww.instagram.com/_____delayed/www.facebook.com/itsdelayed
Over the past few years, Kim has emerged as a notable presence in the underground electronic music scene. Her performances at festivals such as Waking Life and La Nature, and her appearances at iconic parties like Giegling or at legendary C12 alongside XDB and Funke with Van Ahn, have undeniably made waves on this side of the globe.Kim's dedication to the art of music curation shines through in her sets, and we are excited to showcase her latest mix exclusive for the "Delayed with..." series. Kim skillfully blends chuggy, dubby beats with uplifting breaks and deep, immersive, dark rhythms in this mix. From the very beginning, you're welcomed with vibrant pads and the distinctive spoken word of Tom Redecker from Taras Bulba, who introduces the classic track "Die Wahrheit." This track selection envelopes you in an after-hour atmosphere filled with off-kilter vibes.As the mix progresses, the breakbeat elements flow in like the first rays of sun through a dancefloor's windows – you know that moment when sunglasses appear. Yet, beneath the surface, there's a lingering uncanny quality, preserving a delicate yin-yang balance that keeps you entranced. Closing the set with Boards of Canada's "Split Your Infinities" is a true cherry on the top.https://soundcloud.com/kimkenishttps://www.instagram.com/kimkenis_/www.itsdelayed.comwww.instagram.com/_____delayed/www.facebook.com/itsdelayed

"Leave No Trace" is an unconventional and captivating song that defies traditional musical expectations with its unique combination of elements. The tune takes the listener on a mesmerizing journey through its distinctive blend of half-time rhythm, high-pitched melodies, off-kilter percussion, and heavy kicks.The song's tempo is deliberately slowed down to create a groove, which provides a sense of spaciousness and allows the listener to fully absorb the intricate details of the music. The high-pitched synths add an ethereal and otherworldly quality to the composition. The off-kilter percussion introduces an element of surprise and unpredictability. The use of unconventional rhythms and intricate drum patterns keeps the listener on their toes, never quite settling into a predictable beat. This experimental approach to percussion adds a sense of complexity and intrigue.Meanwhile, the heavy kicks provide a contrasting foundation for the song. The powerful and deep kicks act as an anchor, grounding the ethereal melodies and quirky percussion elements. They deliver a sense of weight and urgency to the music, ensuring that despite its experimental nature, "Leave No Trace" retains a visceral and impactful quality.Leave No Trace and the rest of Shifting Cybernetic Horizons will be released on Oct. 27th, as the second release on Dutch DJ and producer, JP Enfants own imprint, Psychedelic Romance.Write up by @huedjhttps://soundcloud.com/jpenfanthttps://www.instagram.com/jpenfant/www.itsdelayed.comwww.instagram.com/_____delayed/www.facebook.com/itsdelayed

"Anam Cara" by Gilmer Galibard (GAL 002) is inspired by the Gaelic term "soul friend." The title track of this beautiful 3-track EP explores the complexities of friendships and marks the second release of the label named after the UK-based artist. It emphasizes mutual respect, effort, trust, honesty, and the necessary work to maintain healthy and nourishing relationships.
"Anam Cara" is a contemplative downtempo piece that also incorporates elements of the deep, hypnotic techno that we adore so much. At its core is an intriguing modular exploration that gradually unfolds throughout its seven-minute duration. Various intimate murmurs and bubbling elements complement this exploration. The recurring percussive sounds create a sense of beating hearts and evoke the multidimensional emotions associated with friendships.
Deep friendships are often characterized by unspoken understanding, connections formed through sharing experiences or thoughts. “Anam Cara” beautifully resembles that entanglement in sound. The things that connect the different layers are sometimes not obvious, spoken in a language without form, that cannot be named but are always with meaning. Much like soul friends themselves.
“Anam Cara”(GIL002) is set for release on August 28.

'Beams of Light' is a collection of ambient and modern classical tracks that address in equal measure the perceptual and the corporeal: these are sounds that sink into the body, exhibiting a tactility that pushes, pulls, bends, and yields with fearsome vibrancy. It's a rich interdependence that lets the tracks breathe, grow and mutate with uncanny organicism. Finding moments of melody amongst the wide landscape of abstract sounds and samples is the only glimpse of reality you'll find down here.
Our premiere for today, "Variant," takes the spotlight as an ethereal and mesmerizing snippet captured during the live set at Hypnose Room during this year's La Nature festival. The collaborative efforts of Kato de Vidts and J Noon shine through as they skillfully blend soft, otherworldly pads, lush piano melodies, and tranquil strings, seamlessly transporting listeners into an interdimensional meditative state.
Scheduled for release on August 15 via the Pregnant Void record label, “Beams of Light” is an impressive showcase of creativity and talent from its contributing artists.

Head down, music pumping, the night is young and vibrant. Muffled yells fill the air as crescendos abound and whip people into a frenzy of shuffling and dancing. This is nirvana, these are the shared experiences we all know and love. He’d probably dismiss this as overblown but for Map.ache, these moments are all too common, a testament to his incredible ability to tap into emotion, convey energy, and hit that sweet spot of ear-worm like melodies and driving percussion.
With Map.ache in mind, we arrive at today’s very special premiere. One that is near and dear to many around the world, Map.ache’s remix of Gilles Wassermans’ Zona. Seeing the two names together on a release warms the heart, and even more so being on the lovely Oslated. Music is truly an exercise in family as it can’t quite get better than this.
Building on the broken beats of the original, with wobbly bass lines taking the forefront, Map.ache has flipped Zona on its head and brought it charging back into the 4/4 realm. Bringing alongside a sprinkling of his signature percussion and slight melodic upticks towards the end. Truly a track that will get everyone dancing, head down, enjoying the moment.
The Map.ache remix of Zona will be out on the 28th of July via South Korean imprint Oslated, along with 6 other tracks as Gilles Wassermans’ release, ‘No Time Like The Present’.

Lyon-based producer Sindh takes listeners on a ravishing sonic voyage with his track 'Qalat,' featured in the upcoming 'Mers' compilation from the French record label and community RDG Tribe. This mesmerizing composition showcases Sidnh's masterful ability to craft a hypnotic half-step journey that effortlessly immerses the listener into a realm of pulsating rhythms and enigmatic atmospheres.At the core of 'Qalat' lies a low-slung kick drum, providing a solid foundation for the track's momentum. Accompanying this foundation is a meticulously crafted percussive sequence that drives the rhythm forward with its intricate patterns and rhythmic complexity. Sindh skillfully weaves layers of percussive elements, creating a rich and textured sonic tapestry that is as captivating as infectious.A high-pitched synth sequence gracefully floating in the background adds an air of mystery and intrigue to the composition. This ethereal melody serves as a mesmerizing counterpoint to the rhythmic elements, casting a spell of curiosity and fascination over the listener. The synergy between the driving percussive elements and the enigmatic synth sequence creates a sonic landscape that is simultaneously dark and uplifting, evoking a sense of exploration and introspection.'Mers' compilation, featuring Sindh's entrancing track 'Qalat,' is scheduled for release on May 26, offering a diverse selection of cutting-edge electronic music by some of the usual suspects here at Delayed, like Estrato Aurora, Owl, Javier Marimon, Simone Bauer, Octo Aeterna and Artos Eleven just to name a few.Write up by https://soundcloud.com/gilleswassermanhttps://soundcloud.com/sindhhttps://soundcloud.com/rdgtribehttps://www.instagram.com/sindhhdnis/https://www.instagram.com/rdgtribe/www.itsdelayed.comwww.instagram.com/_____delayed/www.facebook.com/itsdelayed
Anchored by the resampled chord and piano line, ‘Dust in Bloom’ the titular track from Billus’ debut album, layers intricate aural artifacts to gaseous hypnagogic effect. The hop-skip of the kick and bubbling low-end reveals a playful and plucky atmosphere which evokes learning to ride a bike again for the first time. One part liberating, one part unnerving, pensively poking until the laid-back break comes and helps to find balance. The album is slated for CD & Digital release on May 29th on Pollinate Records, run by label mate Dashiell. While the label is still young, the quality of their releases illustrates the maturity of institutions who are decades into proceedings. Billus’ previous release with Animalia, explored breaks, house and tech with aquatic undertones and a lifting meditative energy similar to Dust. Music like this takes time to sink in but still hits both at home or in a unique dancefloor spectacle.Accompanying is visual response from artist Ava Clifforth which chops organic forms with kaleidoscopic patterns. Melting amoebas initially transfix the screen, yet they evolve, binding a narrative through the autonomy of plants and pollen. These forms weasel from engineered voids and grow into something much larger and slightly dystopian, splaying across an AR World. The release will be distributed and available from the Pollinate Records bandcamp.Watch the Youtube video here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sJc6Zn19n9oWrite-up by @iamdanielgeorge@https://soundcloud.com/billusmoon @https://soundcloud.com/pollinaterecords @https://soundcloud.com/dashiell@https://soundcloud.com/avavava-1 https://www.instagram.com/dashiell.one/ https://www.instagram.com/millusboon/ https://www.instagram.com/avavavavava/ https://www.instagram.com/pollinate.records/ www.itsdelayed.comwww.instagram.com/_____delayed/www.facebook.com/itsdelayed
Lost In Translation record label has once again delivered an impressive release, this time inviting four talented producers to create unique tracks that are more than just songs - they are short music stories. Among them is Greek producer Theef, whose 15-minute-long track 'Lost in Memories' is our premiere for today. The track slowly unfolds from a gentle pad ambient intro into a groovy mesmerizing journey. 'Lost in Memories' grips the listener with its arpeggiated sequence, which serves as the main driving force of the track. Theef carefully layers gentle and thin-sounding pads that levitate over the punchy kick drum, reverbed snare, and metallic hi-hats, creating a sonic atmosphere that is both soothing and energizing. Theef masterfully builds and evolves the sound as the track progresses, adding subtle variations to the rhythm and melody, keeping the listener engaged and captivated. In the final quarter of the journey, Theef introduces a closing sequence that drives this music story to its ending. With its second release, 'Short Stories Vol 1' set for May 23, Lost in Translation shows that its innovative approach will be a signature of its work.write up by https://soundcloud.com/gilleswassermanhttps://soundcloud.com/dj_theefhttps://soundcloud.com/lostinrechttps://www.instagram.com/iamtheef/https://www.instagram.com/lostin_rec/www.itsdelayed.comwww.instagram.com/_____delayed/www.facebook.com/itsdelayed

For more than ten years now, Robin Koek and Nick Lapien have been creating music together as Artefakt. Since then, they have consistently released music at the intersections of ambient, IDM, techno, with LPs on Svreca’s Semantica, Delsin, and Delsin electronica sub-label Ann Aimee in addition to their many EPs.Their next release is 6 track mini album “Floodplain”, landing on the impactful Spanish label Semantica next month. Ranging from brooding ambient on openers and closers “Fugacity” and “Floodplain”, to dance floor-oriented tribal on “Diorama”, “Natura” and “Delta”, the LP showcases the duo’s range and further illustrates their commitment to adopt techno “as an art-form rather than a genre.”On “Natant”, we follow the squirming, tenacious bassline’s path that is at the forefront of the track, being amplified but never overshadowed by their signature style pad or sturdy kicks. The 3.5-minute track reaches its climax two-thirds of the way in before slowly beginning to disintegrate and letting the bassline say its last words.“Floodplain” comes out on April 7th, 2023 as Semantica’s staggering 143rd release. The LP is available for purchase on vinyl (with the digital files included) via Bandcamp.write up by https://soundcloud.com/sabro96https://soundcloud.com/artefakt-officialhttps://www.instagram.com/artefaktofficial/https://soundcloud.com/semantica-recordshttps://www.instagram.com/semantica_records/www.itsdelayed.comwww.instagram.com/_____delayed/www.facebook.com/itsdelayed

From the sonic mists arises one of the newest offerings from Barcelona based producer and DJ, ABSIS. His works are unmistakable, like twisting and twirling rhythmic animals, alive with an otherworldly energy, and today's premiere we’re happy to say is no different.

Prolific Italian duo Orion and dear friends of the Delayed team are ending the year with a bang, as they release ORN006 on their namesake label, their only solo release of the year.We’re very happy to feature the A3 track - TWS. This wonderful piece of electro wastes no time, getting straight to the point with its acid line, bouncy percussion and eerie chords, being reminiscent of Aphex Twin with hints of Sega Soundtrack influence. In typical Orion style, this release is impressively versatile, starting out with ambient, and navigating through breakbeat and downtempo. The duo’s slow release policy is definitely paying off, as it’s clear that they prioritize quality above quantity, having not released a full solo release since April 2021. As always, we’ll be waiting for their next work, and immensely enjoying this in the meantime.Orion's "Tenet" EP will be out on their own Orion label on December 15.write up by https://soundcloud.com/sabro96https://soundcloud.com/technosbnchttps://www.instagram.com/orion_records/www.itsdelayed.comwww.instagram.com/_itsdelayed_www.facebook.com/itsdelayed

Like a musical evolutionary tale unfolding before your eyes and ears, so too does Lost In Translation’s debut release titled Anthroposcene morph and twist, with each artist’s contribution drawing inspiration from, and manipulating elements of the prior. Or as the label puts, “The album was built track by track, providing a space for the featured artists to bounce off of each other’s sonic influences, and weave together a cohesive musical story told from studios around the world.
Leading off the release, the proverbial seeds if you will of the album, are Saphileaum’s airy musings, like a morning mist upon a forest lake, the air alive with flashes of life. Each flash solidifying into an outline of the groove filled Moon Patrol offering, giving a steady rhythmic heartbeat with each hit of the kick. Building on and accentuating the accompanying pads and melody brings us to Alfred Czital’s second scene of our first act, switching up things slightly by heading more into the breaks realm.
As the curtain falls on Czital, we come to our premiere for today and the second act of Anthroposcene, provided by Human Space Machine. Rising melodies start the show, as driving percussion accompanies after a brief pause at the start. Layering and layering as more time goes on, the pads building to a sense of purpose, and tension without being overt.
Anthroposcene in its entirety will be out on December 6th, with additional fantastic contributions by Owl, Orca Silent, and Martinou rounding out the stacked release.

Dutch imprint Spclnch (pronounced Spacelunch), is a label founded by Thomas Carmody in 2019.
Fast forward 3 years later, the label is already on its 150th release, coming in the form of a various artists EP called “Archive C”. Today, we are having “Sand on Wax” for (space) lunch, the release’s B2 track, prepared for us by dub techno expert, Upwellings.
The track heats up calmly over the first minute until hints of low-end start to kick in. After another minute of tension building goes by, the track reaches a boiling point as we get a taste of percussion. The track’s energy is sustained, pulling us into its deliciousness, only giving our taste palettes a change during the brief breakdown, coming back to full energy again. Dessert is served as the track descends into a 45-second kickless outro and comes to an end.
Bon Appétit

Patterns of Perception returns with a snapshot of the Finnish scene: a collection of fast psychedelic techno from Helsinki artist HOMI with a slow-burning remix from VC-118A.
Inspired by fast '90s techno in the vein of Detroit legend Rod Modell, the record is at turns delicate yet powerful, high energy yet melancholic. It also marks a turning point for the artist, coinciding with a shift away from a pure jamming approach and an expansion of his music-making techniques in the studio, adding greater depth and complexity to his output.
Our premiere for today, SmallBisnes, comes as a bonus track of the digital edition, and it fits perfectly for closing this excellent release. SmallBisnes is a quirky breakbeat techno voyage with synths that ebb and flow over the rumbling groove, slowly easing the tension and creating tranquility toward the journey's end.
The release was mastered in Berlin by Patterns of Perception's Andreas Maan, with artwork by fellow collective member Ray Pham. PTN02 will be available in record stores and digitally via Bandcamp and other platforms on November 7.

Hanover-based Session Restore has been consistently releasing sophisticated house for more than a decade. Today we feature Love Bot, his contribution to the upcoming Just Stretchin’ various artists EP.
The track is a five-minute deep house excursion getting straight to business right away. With hints of STL and Move D, the track’s chords and pads take turns back and forth in the spotlight, working in conjunction with the percussion to keep you dancing for the duration of the track. Towards the end of the track, the kick comes to a halt and descends gradually into the outro until it’s all over.
The whole EP is quite dance floor friendly, with the rest of the tracks featuring some euphoric breakbeat sounds. We hope to hear them frequently in clubs over the coming months.

Portuguese label Kokölò return as Alfonsvs delivers his ‘Bad Habits’ EP, backed by a remix from Answer Code Request. Founded earlier this year, Portuguese label Kokölò made an immediate impact with its debut release(that we had the pleasure of premiering) from anonymous artist and label founder Rave Child, gaining support from the likes of Laurent Garnier,.VRIL, Patrice Baümel, and Nathan Micay. Up next, the label turns to another member of its collective as label event programmer Alfonsvs makes his first outing on the imprint. Returning after a brief hiatus, allowing time to find and refocus his sound, he delivers his first EP since 2017’s ‘44th Romance’ as he showcases his musical influences and unveils two powerful originals via his ‘Bad Habits’ EP - accompanied by a warping remix from Berghain resident Answer Code Request.
‘Physical Education’ is a powerful techno voyage that combines dubby stabs, icy hats, and punchy drums to crescendo towards a euphoric ‘hands-in-the-air’ moment.
The EP, mastered by Conor Dalton at Calyx Mastering Studios, features artwork from young illustrator David Duarte - with the design showcasing his visual interpretation of the title track. Alfonsvs ‘Bad Habits’ drops via Kokölò on 28th October 2022.

Welcome to an aquatic exploration of sound. This new series of EPs invites you to a sonic immersion of different aquatic environments of the world through dub and deep techno as well as break.
Boskøw starts us off in Samena, a neighborhood in the Calanque park of Marseille. A precious moment of introspection in the early morning, listening to the waves and voices of the Phocean city.
Boskøw’s universe evolves among BPM & textures to draw introspective trips, from seabeds to stationary orbits. The french producer from Marseille delivers each work with atmospheric & esoteric soundscapes.
The EP is set for release on October 24th.

A few months after Stefan Schwander released his critically acclaimed 'Infamous Lost Tracks' album under the Repeat Orchestra moniker, one of the signature tracks from the release 'Monks In A Club' sees a complete redo by the one and only, Superpitcher. Our premiere for today, 'Monks in The Sky,' is a Superpitcher's version of the original and its epic ride, to say at least. It expands, stretches, ebbs, and flows for ten minutes, creating levitating groove hypnosis that goes in-depth and keeps the listener's attention constantly.
Superpitcher meets Repeat Orchestra is coming out on October 21st via Couldn't Care More.

Like a home emerging from the murky mists of a night gone past, the edges solidifying as the rising sun battles relentlessly against the night, tearing away the tendrils of fog. So does Illumine expand, and develop, almost in front of your ears. Through pads, and textures, sweeping across the sonic stage, to the first kick building and building tension. Only good things await the listener as the melodies grow and grow, like the sun rising the day ahead.
Illumine, and its companions will be released on Tact Recordings in the coming weeks. The three track EP by Yard One gives a hypnotic, more groovier side to their productions, relying on ear-worm like loops and melodies. Write up by @huedj

As the cold winds are embraced around by all, they shepherd in feelings of hibernation, of withdrawing from the outside and into the warmth of our own cozy homes. As a companion through these changes, we look to Montreal based, producer, DJ, label co-founder and more, Artphorm. His Sundays mix contains a little bit of everything, something that we love here at Delayed with a flair for personal moments. Perfect for any morning, with a favorite cup of tea or coffee.

Amsterdam-based Hame inaugurates the Lola Haro helmed Small Steps imprint this October with the three-track 'Compathy' EP.
Hame's music is all about shared feelings without the barrier of words. In this debut EP, he finds the sweet spot between raw house and ethereal emotion. This release will mark the beginning of the label aspect of a new concept being launched by Antwerp-based Lola Haro, a resident of the Paradise City festival. Small Steps will operate as a record label and events series aimed to deliver a dreamy atmosphere that awakens your senses. All events will feature the concept's signature light installation by Orson Van Beek and invite DJs with a like-minded vision to play. The label will also retain this theme and will specifically highlight music with emotion and a dreamy, floaty feel.
Our premiere for today and the EP opener 'Hushed' is a textural-led house cut laid out across six and a half minutes with fluttering synth swells, airy pads, elongated sub-bass tones, and whispering vocals, all subtly nuanced and shifting atop a bumpy, shuffled drum groove.
The inaugural Small Steps release, 'Compathy' EP, is coming out on October 14.

Earlier this year, we had the pleasure of interviewing an incredibly talented Anna Jordan, aka The Allegorist, who introduced us to her creative world of music, visuals, poetry, paintings, and much more. We also talked about her fourth, critically acclaimed album 'Blind Emperor' and its creative process. Six months later, we've got another piece of the puzzle from the world of The Allegorist. The Berlin-based multidisciplinary artist made the mix for us, which we have listened to several times already. The mix is a dark, moody, and cinematic escapade that features tracks from our favorite artists like Voices From The Lake, Vivian Koch, Rival Consoles, and The Allegorist herself.

Through woozy bass lines and acidic leads comes our premiere for today. Hailing from Taiwan as a force de majeure, Vice City and her earworm-like melodies take center stage. All with an air of restraint, as if every element knows its place, and not to stray too far into the limelight. Contributing to those moments, only when it’s right, building and building, adding element after element until a crescendo comes.
Altered habitat and the rest of the 十十零壹 compilation will be out on Jin, October 10th. Accompanied by stellar offerings from Initials B.B, and Ocram Orchestra to say the least.

In June, Thomas Melchior & Bruno Pronsato returned with the first part of the double 'Nijinski Picnic' EP series on Foom. Their first music since 2010's 'Puerto Rican Girls' EP that came out on Smallville was recorded in Thomas Melchior's studio before and during the lockdown. Today we are excited to premiere one of the tracks from the Nijinski Picnic Part Two EP, Cumulus Ruckus (Back Version). Cumulus Ruckus (Back Version)is a trippy minimal escapade with quirky percussions, a rumbling bass line, and catchy vocal samples. With Cumulus Ruckus (Back Version), Melchior and Pronsato deliver proper after-hours vibes.
Nijinski Picnic Part Two EP is coming out on September 9
Like a musical evolution, The Clearing Pt.2 grows, and writhes in front of you. The natural timbre of wood blocks coalesces nicely with the undulating water like synth, the wisp like melody sweeping through the trees surrounding. It’s an auditory awakening of the mind, and nature alike. Proving again and again that one can not live without the other in complete symbiosis.
2MR writes this, about the release: The Clearing, originally debuted in 2015 as part of the exhibition Flickers of Day and Night at Denmark’s ARoS Aarhus Kunstmuseum, consisted of larger-than-life spinning daisy sculptures surrounded by Djurberg’s signature claymation animations. Berg’s sound installation transforms from an ominous yet alluring pan flute composition into an otherworldly synth melody, underscored by a sticky echo tone and the occasional bird call. The effect is an almost unsettling invitation into the artists’ seemingly innocent forest, only to be plunged into the transgressive animations as the music transforms.
The Clearing, and the rest of Hans Berg’ wonderfully nuanced Waypoints release will be out on the 16th of September.

Spinning Plates welcomes New Yorker DJ Spider onto its roster to kick off 2022 with his ‘Enter The Void’ EP, backed by a remix from Phil Moffa aka The Butcha.
Rob Hampton, better known to most as DJ Spider, has been releasing his twisted take on Techno and experimental electronica for over a decade on the likes of The Trilogy Tapes, REKIDS, Vanguard Sound! and Berceuse Heroique as well as his and Dakini’s own Plan B Recordings and its sub-labels BTU and Sublevel Sounds. Here he joins the roster of Spinning Plates, the London-based label that’s established itself as a go to purveyor for leftfield leaning Techno, Electro and more.
‘Incineration Of Years And Truth’, our premiere for today, completes the EP, edging things into a dubby territory courtesy of smooth chord sequences, spiraling echoes and bumpy, reduced drums.
DJ SPIDER: This record is dedicated to my good friend Mike Huckaby. He planned on remixing "Incineration of Years and Truth" back when I originally made it in 2011, but we never got around to actually making that happen. I'm also honored to have my other close friend Phil Moffa on remix duties. There were many sessions in Phil's studio (Butcha Sound Studio, NYC) where we used to jam with Mike whenever he would come to New York to DJ or hang out. We used to play with synthesizers for hours. We were all good friends and it was perfect to have Phil on this record as well! Mike taught and inspired us to have fun with making music and push ourselves to be the best that we can be. We will love him forever.

Up up up with the energy we go, as our focus for today’s premiere looks to Peruvian DJ and producer Luis Leon alongside fellow Blankhaus co-owner Unseener for their latest, Golden Gardens.
The title track is a boppy little number, immediately grabbing your attention with filtered down vocals before wasting no time at all jumping into the main groove. With snappy shakers and percussion driven by an undulating bass line, the staccato melodic stabs give an air of urgency and lend a boost of energy like a musical espresso.
Luis Leon & Unseener’s Golden Gardens release will be out on Blankhaus, July 28th.

Emerging out of the jungle mists are the swirling sounds of Snad on the Tulum based imprint Kilometro4.5. The Berlin based artist has had prior releases on the likes of Kimochi Sound, Courtesy of Sound, Smallville and more through a variety of sounds. Our focus for today is of the ambient persuasion as label, and Snad state:
Kilòmetro 4.5 takes you into danceable ambient sounds through a dreamy album produced by Snad. Loop DreamZz is an ethereal representation of nostalgic soundscapes. It wraps you in a strange yet familiar sense of paradise at twilight, be it before dawn or post-sunset. Faint birdsong, gentle waves, and the bittersweet tiredness when you’re one of the last on the sandy dancefloor, yet perpetually craving to keep the dream looping.
“I originally wrote Loop DreamZz in Berlin after my first visit to Papaya Playa Project. Fast forward to 2021, and Km4.5 asked me if I would be interested in writing an ambient-ish album. I was doing an exercise in writing an album a month, so I was naturally into the idea. The resulting album was written with my machines in the dark of the night over a week and a half in Malvern, Pennsylvania. I drew influence from Jan Jelinek, Gigi Masin, Kimochi Sound, Meitei, my friends, and my lush suburban environment.” - Snad
Loop DreamZz and in turn Glimmer are coming out via Kilómetro 4.5 on July 22, 2022

In the past couple of years, Delayed's 'mountain house' gatherings have become affairs where we can relax and enjoy music in an ideal setting with close friends. During the four days, time is unimportant, and we go with a flow. We switch behind the decks as we feel, often indulge in marathon B2B sessions, and dance away our worries till early mornings. This impressive set by one of our co-founders, Zach Huenink, aka Hue, was the highlight of our latest getaway at The Barn upstate New York. Over the years, we've heard numerous sets from Hue that gave us goosebumps, but this set stands out. The energy, the flow, track selection, everything clicked. It perfectly represents what one of our co-founders can do behind the decks. We all knew that before; now, it's your turn to learn it. This four-hour set would easily rock any given dance floor, so brace yourself for quite a ride.

Gems Under The Horizon, the chillout division of Belgium’s Basic Moves, returns with its second release this July, comprised of four original cuts from various artists across the globe.

Here the label returns with four new tracks welcoming an array of new artists onto its roster and leading the way is ', who delivers ‘Vigo,’ our premiere for today. Vigo is a hauntingly beautiful journey through swelling textures, plucked strings, ethereal voices, and synth modulations.

Today’s premiere comes in the form of the opener track from “A Long Way,” Jacques Bon, and Drux’s forthcoming album. The 8-track LP starts with a bass-heavy, celestial-sounding one-minute opening scene, after which a steady kick enters, surely bound to push every dance floor it’s played on into a frenzy. A breakdown follows shortly after, topped by a subtle, chopped vocal sample. A second breakdown occurs, decreasing the energy even more before erupting into insanity again. The track sets the tone for the rest of the album: deep, dubby, and sophisticated.
The entire release has common thematic elements woven through it yet is never dull or repetitive. Some are slow-burners perfect for warming up floors, and some will serve as big, memorable peak-time moments. Overall, an incredibly impressive album that will inevitably receive an extremely warm welcome upon its release. Business as usual from the renowned Smallville.
“A Long Way" LP will be out on Smallville on July 1, 2022.

Parisian duo Masomenos deliver their new LP' Unidentified Aerial Phenomena' this May, coming via the Automatic Writing imprint and comprising eleven originals, featuring Amsterdam's San Proper. Masomenos have always explored parallel worlds with their music, fusing an amalgamation of influences and bringing all the humor and kindness they've met on their path into their universe. Their music, weird and intriguing for some, lively and trippy for others, is like an ongoing story told over more than 15 years of musical production. Alongside the music is their graphic design accompaniment of funny creatures and mystical figures. In this new opus, they surf the frontier between their club sound and home listening, inviting friends over for the ride. Julien Quentin at the piano, Adrien Boisseau on the viola, and San Proper on vibe & vocals. Today's premiere, 'Hollow,' is a dubbed-out house journey that slowly unfolds from a beatless stab-driven intro with haunting vocals into a mesmerizing odyssey full of little details and melancholy melodies.
'Hollow' and the rest of the 'Unidentified Aerial Phenomena' LP are coming out on May 20th via Automatic Writing.

One of the leading figures in the 'new generation' of drum'n'bass producers, Cluj-based Eduard Costea, better known as DYL, has been on our radar for quite some time. His last year's collaboration with Synkro, 'Empty faces' EP, on Swiss record label re:st, is still one of the most played releases here at Delayed HQ. After numerous guest mixes that we heard from DYL and many episodes of his radio show, Echo, we were excited for a reason when Eduardo sent us his vision of the 'Delayed with...' mix. This one-hour journey is programmed to perfection. DYL sets up the atmosphere in the first quarter of the mix with a couple of lush, cosmic ambient tunes and takes off with GiGi FM's '22 Tear Drops'. From that moment, DYL travels to the dark side of halftime drum'n'bass and creates a perfect after-hours atmosphere, eventually finishing the journey with some crème de la crème leftfield electronica. This is a proper late-night eclectic journey.

Sundays are for… Ocram Orchestra
Sundays in general are a pivotal part of all lives. For many, they announce the end of a period of relaxation, for others the beginning.The former, acts as a grasp of levity and escapism, the other a breakage from the grip of a banal day to day. Today’s mix is quite special as it encompasses the passion, direction, and style of Ocram Orchestra who guides us through an intensely personal interpretation of the above. This mix adds a layer of reflection and introspection not often seen. Today is Sunday, and the morning is for Ocram Orchestra…

The consistently good Madrid-based record label, Sungate welcomes Cøre and Einerlei for the latest release. A five-track 'Mindside' EP features two remixes of the title track done by Crossing Avenue, Laima Adelaide, and an ambient version by Cøre and Einerlei.
Our premiere for today, the title track 'Mindside,' is a perfectly balanced hypnotic techno journey. The track opens up with a steady four to the floor beat layered with long, lush pads and a 'deep water'-like synth sequence which keeps things interesting throughout this trip. Midway through this journey, a mellow thin-sounding melody brings everything together and gives this track a beautiful melancholy touch. Mindside EP is coming out this Friday, May 6th, via Sungate Records.

Through the fog, the lights flicker. Illuminating the rhythmic movements of formless dancers below. Each lost in their own world of interpretations while the drums beat steadily onward. Warbling melodies following suit, appearing from the depths only to jump from side to side, leaving their mark on the captive audience.
The textured sounds of De Register by Conoley Ospovat provide all of the above and more, as well as marking the release of his latest offering on Diffuse Reality Records affiliate Teorema Festival. 826 G Street is a 10 track album that is shows off the midwesterners production talents as Ospovat glides through ambient, downtempo, and house so effortlessly.
De-Register and the rest of 826 G Street will be released into the world on May 4th.

Sundays are for... Ses
Today’s ambient explorations come straight from Brooklyn via an incredible dj and budding producer, Ses.

noc:turne’s output has never gone unnoticed at Delayed. Whether mixes or releases, the Belgian producer’s work has always been admired by our team. The Delayed team is ecstatic to have him back, this time to premiere this beautiful, atmospheric interpretation of Giveon’s “Heartbreak Anniversary.” “Praise” serves as the release’s opener, starting out in an extremely melancholic manner, giving us a taste of what to expect and setting the tone for the remainder of the EP. Prepare to get lost in Noc:turne’s 8-minute odyssey revolving around Giveon’s desolate vocals. With equal parts downtempo, house, ambient, and trance, noc:turne’s “Humanity” EP showcases the producer’s sophistication, evolution, and ability. After hearing several of his tracks featured in his mixes over the past few months, it’s about time these tracks see the light of day. The EP will be out on May 1, 2022 via noc:turne’s Right Hand Corner Imprint.

No stranger to Delayed after his sublime releases on Diffuse Reality and Secuencias Temporales, Chech artist Dominic Knap aka Kletis is back with eight cuts of texture-oriented and dreamy forest ambiance on the ‘Saudade LP’ released via French Accent Records.
Our premiere track, ‘Appetence,’ is a hypnotic draw through some bewitched foggy woodland. Casting spells with delicately paced natural affinity as if to get lost in the organic flow of aerial and aquatic pads. Before you know it, your breathing synchronized with the mysterious pulsation and its melodic melancholy enveloping the lavish, trippy dreams.
‘Saudade LP’ is out on May 1st, 2022

"Unseen yet always there Hidden by ignorance and fear The fragility of our reality
Realization spells the beginning, not the end Nurture holds the key to transcend Into a regenerative process" - Trøm Borg
Netherlands-based Trøm Borg has had an impressively busy 2022 so far, releasing several tracks, mixes and now an EP, in the first four months of the year. With tracks coming out on Obscure Sorrows, and Ancestral Process, in addition to running the Amsterdam-based Retur party, which focuses on deeper organic and tribal techno sounds, Trøm Borg’s resume speaks for itself. Today we are proud to premiere “Regenerative Process”, the title track off of Trøm Borg’s latest EP, coming out on Dutch label Profundo Collective later this week. “Regenerative Process” starts out with a pad immediately followed up with a repetitive glitch that gradually fades from the center of the track as the kick, bassline, synth pad and all enter. A tribal percussion is sustained throughout the track, taking its chance to shine alongside the pad during the track’s break, around the 4-minute mark. The kick then makes a full-fledged return, before the track slowly descends into the outro. The four-track “Regenerative Process” EP comes out on Profundo Collective on April 29, 2022.

Do we ever have enough of uplifting breakbeat? The type that overloads on hope and outpouring happiness? Based in Porto, Portugal, Rave Child is off to an exciting start with the new label and event series, Kokölò. True “to move forward” meaning behind its name, the label ethos focuses on a specific mood or state of freedom rather than a particular genre.
In the inaugural ‘The Birth’ EP, no-face-entity Rave Child captured that feeling of a soul discovering the dancefloor for the first time with all its naivety and joy. United in the use of breaks, and chopped voices meld with dreamy melodies, each track on the three-track EP takes on the unique, nostalgia permeated sonic gradient. Mastering by Vril and Andreas Lubich, aka Loop-o, make this package easy not to miss.
Feel like a kid again on properly induced euphoria aka the album’s opener ‘It never was.’ Daydreaming at the heart of playful lights and colors, beaming to a point of galvanized innocence, getting loose in some utopian infinity; this track lifts spirits and launches moves like nobody watches. Do we ever want to have enough of it?

There's something that makes the deep lo-fi house so pleasant to listen to. Whether it's long, lush pads, pounding drums paired with rolling basslines, or sampled melancholy vocals, the lo-fi deep house always carries a specific emotion that works magic on the dance floor. In the past two decades, the German house music scene had a significant impact on the genre itself, specifically several labels coming from Leipzig, like KANN and Uncanny Valley, to name a few. Today's premiere has a Leipzig stamp all over it. 'Lagrange' is a part of a five-track EP, 'Droptop Rain Drive' by Marvin Boettcher, scheduled for release on April 22 via Leipzig-based 04177 Records. 'Lagrange' uses all the aforementioned ingredients for a bouncy lo-fi house journey which, with its vocal samples, is perfectly reminiscent of a magnificent map.ache's work. 'Lagrange' and the rest of the 'Droptop Rain Drive' EP will be a great addition to any DJ sets on rooftops or backyards.

Berlin-based record label Bulging Discs celebrates their first vinyl release with a glorious six-tracker 'On the Zonts' by OKAYOKAYOKAY. OKAYOKAYOKAY, an Australian-born producer who has called Berlin home for the last six years, created a release that fits your downtime at home or the foggy dance floor during early mornings in Berlin. 'Interference Fits,' our premiere for today, uses the 'breakbeat with acid' recipe, a formula that brought us some of the most iconic tracks in the past few decades (especially in the '90s). With that in mind, this track sounds like a contemporary take (in the best way possible) on our beloved genre - the 90s electronica. Melancholy melody layered with rolling percussions and acid bassline fits together marvelously to create a pleasant journey with a 'feel good' stamp on it. OKAYOKAYOKAY - On the Zonts marks the label's physical release debut and will also be available for streaming & download on all major platforms from 18 April 2022.

Our latest installment in the 'Delayed with...' series welcomes a founder of popular online music magazine Inverted Audio, Tom Durston, aka Antepop. Antepop played a vinyl-only all-nighter at London's Cafe Oto a few weeks ago, and we are happy to feature the first two hours of that set on our platform. The mix gradually unfolds from ambient, experimental, electronica, and dub to the finest deep house that would set an ideal mood for any given dance floor. With the accent on track selection and setting up the mood, this is a warm-up set done right. Tracks by Huerco S, Traumprinz, Leafar Legov, Rising Sun, and DJ Sprinkles, with some Workshop and Giegling magic, will brighten up your day and prepare you for the weekend ahead.

The Swiss-based record label re:st continues with a streak of brilliant releases with the latest outing, 'Collective Vision EP' from one of our favorite producers Adam O'Hara aka The Vision Reels. The 'Collective Vision EP' consists of six cinematic and spacious experiments, including one collaboration with DB1. These tracks dive into the more experimental side of The Vision Reels output, with most of the tracks originating from early ideas in live studio set-ups. Our premiere for today, the title track, Collective Vision, is a tranquil, pleasant journey in which layers of noise waves, deep undercurrents, and melancholy pads blur the lines somewhere between the ambient and the cinematic.
The Collective Vision EP is coming out on April 13 via re:st

To the lands of Switzerland, does our gaze turn today. Zurich based Project Indigo is looking to one of its founders for the latest release. ‘i thought it was yesterday’, by boaksi is an emotive album full of twists and turns from ambient to breakbeat, showing off the skill of the swiss producer’s grasp on creating moments that will hang in the air even after the final note is played.
Fermi’s Paradox comes in as the B3 side of the double vinyl release, with the dulcet tones of boaski starting almost immediately and enveloping the listener in their warmth. Mix them together with a tastefully done guitar riff, breakbeat percussion, and a hint of melancholy, and you’ve got a winner on your hands.
‘i thought it was yesterday’ will be released in digital on April 9, 2022 and vinyl in late summer.

Yantai-based record label and music platform, Indefinite Pitch continues with a steady string of releases with 'Voodoo Haze,' a four-track EP by a relative newcomer from Paris Cédric André-Jean aka a n j e. The closing track and our premiere for today - 'Unleashed Desire' is an energetic deep techno track with a cosmic atmosphere. Its name may come from a powerful synth sequence that slowly grows in the background of classic deep techno bassline just to be unleashed around a mid-way of this journey and take over, ultimately creating a natural dance floor smasher. 'Voodoo Haze' is set for release on April 8th via Indefinite Pitch.

Ben Kaczor and his project, KCZ/CZT/KCZX, are no strangers to Delayed. Kaczor is a man of many talents, ranging from visual art, to music production and DJing, to booking and curating, which he does for the revered TAG in Chengdu, China. Today, we’re happy to premiere “Lights” from “Sun Chapter One” LP, his first release of 2022. The LP goes from lush deep house to dub techno, both done very skillfully and coherently. “Lights” starts out with sharp high hats from the get go, as a haunting pad enters, eventually being supported by a thumping kick. As the track goes on, various pops and clicks occur throughout. This structure is sustained until the eighth minute of the ten minute voyage, when bell-like chimes begin eerily, while the percussive elements come to a halt, as the track comes to its conclusion. The “Sun Chapter One” LP comes out on April 1st, 2022, on KCZ. The release will be available physically, digitally, and via streaming services.

Fresh off the block for today is the mysterious Neotex’s Glacier from NH001. The inaugural vinyl only release of a new Sydney based label, Natural-High. The club friendly tune snaps into focus immediately, grabbing listeners and taking them on a euphoric break-beat trip. One can almost picture the smoky afters or intimate clubs in which this track would be most at home, whirling around space and time building tension for what is to come.
Glacier, and in turn Perspective Shift (NH001) will be released April 1st, 2022.

In a celebration of the breadth of Brussels' thriving musical scene, Listen Festival has curated a collection of works that embodies the variety and quality so beloved by many. With contributions from Strapontin, PAL, Kato De Vidts, Azo, Dardenne, KranKk, Lunar Convoy, Kappen, Schroothoop, Bass Toast, Cheb Runner; the aptly named, ‘Our Scene’ compilation is a poignant snapshot of an ever evolving city’s musical expression.
Our focus for today falls upon Kato De Vidts and her track, Heightened Aliven. Ethereal pads, and an electro-tinged melody, guide a listener through the proverbial mists before alighting on a breakbeat base of kicks and snares. All of which provide a sense of energy, of tension, of what has come before and what will be.
Heightened Aliven and the rest of the ‘Our Scene’ vinyl compilation will be released as a limited run as of March 30th, 2022.

The Dutch duo based in Berlin, Robin Koek and Nick Lapien, better known as Artefakt, are starting a new chapter in their De Stijl narrative; the record label they founded in 2019 with the goal to further explore their sound and host affiliated projects and collaborations with like-minded friends. The latter takes the first significant step and starts the new series 'Collaborations,' with the idea to capture extended studio improvisations and craft an EP based on live sessions. For the inaugural release in the series, Artefakt welcomes their close friend and fellow Berliner, Claudio PRC.
'Collaborations I' seems like a match made in heaven where Artefakt and Claudio bring their A-game and deliver a four-track release that explores depths of hypnotic, atmospheric techno, and ambient. The release has two faces. The A-side sees Artefakt and Claudio PRC channeling their inner atmospheric techno side with dance floor DNA all over it. Where on the B-side, things slow down and gradually dissolve into gauzy layers of a melancholic drone.
The story unfolds with 'Gaia.' A mood piece with a rumbling groove and deep emotional undercurrents. A defining element of 'Gaia' is an unsettling piano that flourishes and warbles with atmospheric textures to create a complex take on melancholy. 'Dwelling' continues in a similar fashion and builds on the abstract sonic world with its long, lush cosmic pads and familiar deep techno sequence. 'Gaia' is the stand out of two, but 'Dwelling' sounds like a more versatile chameleon track that could find a place at various times during the night in DJ sets.
The B-side kicks off with 'Sonic Rite,' our premiere for today. 'Sonic Rite' calms things down with a significant drop in pace but keeps the same hypnotic atmosphere with an ever-evolving bassline sequence and far-east-inspired flute-like melodies. An otherworldly female voice adds a nice transcendental touch that falls like a jigsaw into the place of this mesmerizing 'slow-burner.'
'Collaborations I' closes with 'Distant Light,' a dark drone ambient journey that sounds like a glacial majesty with peaceful oscillations. It's an ideal listening piece for moments of tranquility and self-reflection.
With 'Collaborations I,' the first chapter of the series that features Delsin affiliate Claudio PRC, Artefakt sets the bar high and gets us excited for what is to come. 'Collaborations I' will be available in record stores and streaming services on March 25th.

Six months after releasing the 'Half Light Half Dark' EP, our fellow NY-er and usual suspect here at Delayed, Aspetuck, releases a remix package. The release features incredible talent from around the globe like Adam Strömstedt, Ben Kaczor, Jónbjörn, Sanguine, Forest On Stasys, and Caldera. Each track gives a new life and unique take on Aspetuck's already exceptional originals.
Our premiere for today comes from Lyssna Records founder and KANN affiliate Adam Strömstedt. Adam creates rich atmospheres and complex rhythms that work in perfect balance in his productions, and we see that recipe works magic once again in his take on 'Holding Pattern.' The track is driven by carefully constructed broken rhythm layered with warm, cosmic pads, which lead to a signature moment of this journey when melancholic minor piano chords create a 'call and response' effect with a catchy tom sequence. This remix is an ideal soundtrack for sunny mornings on a fog-filled dance floor.
The 'Half Light Half Dark' remix package is coming out on March 25th on Bandcamp.

Mogambo knit together a heady, hypnotic sound from the many enigmatic strands of Asia’s musical cultures: the deep traditional instrumentations of Siam and India, the high-tech edge of modern Bangkok and the rich Goan bloodline of trance. The results are both otherworldly, yet instantly comprehensible. And now the duo, consisting of producer Sunju Hargun and multi-instrumentalist Jerom Doudet, return with the latest missive from their own aptly-titled Siamese Twins Records: Urvi (उव). The much- anticipated follow-up to their sought-after debut 12” Cobra (कोबरा) is a multi-layered sound bath, as versatile as it is visceral. Urvi ranges from meditative sonic explorations to fearless entrancing rhythms and basslines, tangled together from the mysterious East. The opening track of the release and our premiere for today, "Durga (दुर्गा)," sounds like a start of the journey full of uncertainty but armed with the hope that something good will come out of it. Its positivity sets a good vibe for the rest of the release, which later gets more energetic with "Urvi," "Chakkar," and "Piya" and explores the depths of trance mysticism. Urvi (उव) EP is set for release on March 15th

The Swiss-based Chateau Chépère crew brings a diverse EP from Ambient House maestra Rai Scott for their first installment. The five-tracker 'Anahata Nada' EP sees Edinburgh-based artist explore warm and lush House vibes centered around a party environment. From the gorgeous Ambient title track 'Anahata Nada' that can do magic in the chill-out rooms to more dance floor oriented 'Logical Positivism,' 'Track 4 Inspired' and 'Open Your Eyes,' the latter is signed under Rai's Serendipity alias. Our premiere for today, 'Track 4 Inspired', is a melancholic Hazy House journey. Driven by the classic Deep House groove, the track shows its beauty in lush pads exhaling in long, overlapping layers. Melancholic keys and atmospheric textures give the track a special moody touch, ideal for upcoming rooftop parties here in Brooklyn.
'Anahata Nada' EP was released on March 7th via a new Lausanne-based vinyl-only imprint, Chateau Chépère.

Beirut-based System Revival Records released a phenomenal compilation named "Rust," featuring tracks by Inland, Cøre, Polygonia, and John Plaza, to name a few. The fifth compilation in their catalog aims to raise funds for humanitarian aid for refugees. Most currently, for the people of Ukraine who have been forced to flee their homes due to Russian military invasion. Our premiere for today, "Shimmering Illusion," comes from our usual suspect, Polygonia. IO records co-founder known for her exquisite talent to make groovy Deep Techno, delivers yet another late-night trippy journey that has dance floor DNA all over it. "Shimmering Illusion" has an exceptional groove in its core, but this time it's the "sticky sound" of synths that make all the difference. "Rust" is out via System Revival Records.

Esoteric musings, more of a sketch than most, embody our focus of today. A whim, a thought, of what to do next is the mood. Molly has encompassed a moment in time experienced by all.
As the label says, life after awareness is the beginning of an inner search that finds its expression in a collection of ten soundtracks that produce very profound changes on the emotional states of each of us. Field recordings and soothing frequencies form the backdrop for dreamlike symphony of strings, woody bass notes and plinking tones. In some tracks, the billowing ambience is free to drift like curls of smoke.

If you’re into electronic music, chances are, you’re a fan of Kosta Athanassiadis, commonly known as XDB. The veteran DJ and producer has been consistently putting out beautiful music and making dancers move and sway for a long time, with a career in music spanning thirty years. With releases, on Metrolux, his own label, as well as Sistrum Recordings, Dolly, and Echochord, one would be surprised to find out that it wasn’t until 2020 that XDB put out a full-length LP when his genre-defying album “Inspiron” came out on Dial. But taking time to build up and do things properly seems to be Athanassiadis’s M.O., in regards to both releases and DJ sets. And today’s premiered track, a perfect slow-burner for warm-up sets, happens to be no different.
XDB truly goes back to his deep roots in a groovy remix of “GR2", commencing with a hypnotic synth line right at the track’s forefront, eventually taking a step back. Sharp high hats, synth stabs and snare drum rolls work together for the duration of the track to ensure that party attendees will be dancing.
Athanassiadis’s remix comes as part of the “Dark Path” EP, the first release on the Deep Series (a Diaphan Music sub-label) since 2014. The EP will be out on vinyl on March 2, 2022, and will be released digitally on February 28, 2022.

The eighth installment in the Lyssna Records catalog, "Searching" EP, comes from Icelandic producer Ohm. For this occasion, Ohm teamed up with friends and long-time collaborators "Octal Industries" and "TM Shuffle" to create a beautiful and ominous six-track EP.
Our premiere for today, "Zona 1," sees Ohm joining forces with another producer from Iceland, Octal Industries. Icelandic connection worked like a charm in this case and delivered a beautiful groovy deep house endeavor. Even though the most prominent part of "Zona 1" is the groove, the real beauty is happening in the background, where lush pads serve as a foundation for two sequences that marvelously blend and create a wonderful "cosmic summer" atmosphere. Zona 1 and the rest of the Searching EP are coming out on February 25th via Stockholm-based Lyssna Records.

Through wetland, winters, rubble and fallout come horizons new; civilization shattered under a vengeful cataclysm, eventually led to dawn from the light of a blighted leader. Every action has a reaction, and those who wish to prosper must first be willing to offer something of intrinsic value. As one empire crumbles, another takes its place. The struggle for a fleeting utopia comes at a cost, and those who strive towards golden gates must trek along a solemn valley.
Berlin-based artist, The Allegorist, has been meandering through stories with her purposeful and introspective take on electronic music. Each release explores themes that require joint participation from the listener as they look to flood your mind with images of fabled characters and places through her artistic soundscapes. Her carefully build worlds that straddle sci-fi and fantasy, feeding off of the light and dark dualism are the perfect blend of reflective contemplation and storytelling.
As a holistic artist, Anna Jordan(The Allegorist)encapsulates a myriad of her talents within her work. Her previous albums, Hybrid Dimensions I and Hybrid Dimensions II, established her aesthetic and detailed fictitious stories, along with the language ‚Mondoneoh‘, a language to unite all nations. Her latest endeavour, and 4th album, The Blind Emperor, portrays the essence of a mythical land that tells of struggle that will lead to prosperity.
The protagonist, The Blind Emperor, leads the charge into a brighter tomorrow. Like chapters from a novel, each track allows the listener to be carried by the story. It is an epic, cinematic, choral, ambient techno album. The album combines her depictive, written and musical storytelling with a concept portrayed visually, orally and audibly to deliver another saga in her ever-evolving figments of fantasy. It comes as an entire artistic project, as The Allegorist created the album art, wrote the included story and composed a poem that all combine to tell the tale of The Blind Emperor.

Our next installment of the mix series was created by the extraordinary producer, DJ, painter, graphic designer, and the person behind Adhémar and half of Aucuba Replica, Clément Davout.
We wanted a mix from Clément early on. His works are like instances of mastered calligraphy, emotionally rooted into the intuitive understanding of human cognition. His exquisite sense of style, meticulous production, recognizable sonic palette, and sensitivity to the smallest details make him one of the Delayed all-time favorites. It seems like everything he puts his mind on never disappoints.
For this mix, Adhemar reworked all the tracks and did special edits to make it unique. Delicate with a flawless flow; opening up, yet introspective. It spotlights all his signature elements and is mesmerizing in a balance of engagement, relaxation, and unwinding. We fell in love with it right away and honestly think it is one of Adhémar’s finest creations. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do!🌱

Coming in as the 8th release from an incredible Prague based imprint Harmony Records, Reality Check is the second offering from label co-founder Alfred Czital, who followed up on his 2019 release, ‘Lippa’. Our focus for today lies nestled in between two of the more beat driven tracks, providing a nice juxtaposition to some of the harder tracks on the release.
Much like gazing down at the surface of a watery pool, Alfred Czital & Jamida’s collaboration Hermannstraße 176 evokes a sense of aural depth and serenity. Breath like pads swell and subside in the background, as bright textures snap in and out of existence. Creating a shimmering sonic backdrop as if the sun were dancing across a thousand small waves.

If ambient tracks were salads, then most would be best described as caprese: a slice of some mozzarella, a slice of tomato, stick a basil leaf on top, and drizzle it with balsamic vinegar. Done! Enjoy! In other words, “ambient” salads are typically constructed with just a couple of carefully chosen and carefully mixed ingredients. Sometimes, ingredients are of good quality and the track shines and sometimes not so much. It’s a real treat, then, when an ambient chef presents us with a little more than a caprese.
Uanamani clearly earns a Michelin star when it comes to salads: Sexto Sentido is a musical version of something like a Mexican salad: countless ingredients, bursting with colors, shapes and flavors, skillfully mixed. Add some playful corn melodies, add black beans for something rhythmic, throw some cilantro to add freshness, some peppers for spice. You could hear all that and more in 5 minutes during the track and it’s a real treat for the senses. Sexto Sentido and the rest of the Forbidden Islands EP is out on February 21st.

The Munich-based IO Records welcomes back one of its co-founders Lukas Weinlein aka MTRL and his eight-track "Disrupt" EP. The EP features four originals and four remixes by long-time friends of the label, Epsilon, Kaf, Delusional Circuits, and fellow IO co-founder Dycide. "Javelin," our premiere for today, is all about the groove. The track executes the 'less is more' approach flawlessly. A rolling percussive sequence is the main driver of "Javelin." Accompanied by thumping kick and shaker, it creates a proper 'dancefloor pacer,' which will come in handy to many DJs during the late nights. Disrupt EP is coming out on February 10th via IO Records

Two French producers and long-time friends, Geinst and Inerit are releasing their first LP on the new imprint ITAE. The novel space focused on borderless, spontaneous, and free from standardization music. Three years in the making and featuring four tracks from each producer, the inaugural album ITAE001 explores a variety of atmospheric animations within the lushly spectral aesthetic.
Evocative on the dance floor yet occupying mellow ground, the closing track ‘Soft Escape’ captured a lovely resonance in its linear, intensifying rhythms and punchy soft beats. Across the distinctly mysterious landscape, drift morphic long-tones atop of moody interweaving patterns. Uncluttered and grounded in calm, the track reminiscent of that witching-hour hypnotic solitude.

The Barcelona-based duo Iro Aka are about to self-release their six track compilation, Ametrine Horizon.
The release ranges from acid-infused downtempo on Indigo, to ambient breakbeat on Blooms In, to psychedelic dance-floor euphoria on Oort Speis. Today, we’re happy to bring you 7 minutes and a half of melody and rhythm on Fukushia, the release’s closer.
The track starts out with a thumping kick, steady percussion and a floating pad, sustained throughout the track with the exception of a few mini-breaks as well as an extended breakdown at the halfway mark. The bleep inspired melody keeps our attention for the duration of the track, before it disintegrates and nothing but the synth pad remains until the track comes to a halt. Fukushia, part of the Ametrine Horizon compilation, comes out on February 11th, 2022. The track as well as the full release are now available for pre-order on Bandcamp. Writeup by @sabro96

After releasing his Mantras LP almost a year ago, Continental Drift Records co-head Conoley Ospovat is back with the Rise Together EP. The A-side brings lush, deep house sounds, with the B-side featuring some more hard-hitting house. Today we’re premiering the A1 track — Dreams of Summer, a very relatable name and track during this time of winter.
Emitting positive and bright vibes, the track features a vocoder voice, some happy chords, and steady percussion that keeps you dancing throughout the whole track. Make a nice cup of tea, lay back, and enjoy this beautiful reverie, as you dream of summer. That’s what we’ll be doing until this cold winter passes. The Rise Together EP, including Dreams of Summer, will be released on Continental Drift Records on February 11th, 2022.

Amongst the trees on a lonely night, the wind still, save for the odd rustle of leaves is where we find ourselves. Gone are the distractions of the day, for they are unwelcome in nature’s embrace. To be present is all that is required. But wait! There is a new energy in the breeze, the winds have shifted, and upon their wild whims rides the deep rumblings of a storm brewing. Around and around the leaves go, swirling through the air, gusts of electric air enveloping all that is grounded. Worried not, you close your eyes and embrace what is coming…
Doctrina Natura’s The Hidden Power Of Reciting Mantras will be sent out into the world as the 20th release on the amazing South Korean based label, Oslated. Full to the brim with emotionally charged narratives that show off the range of the Seville based DJ and producer.

A new year and a new downtempo gem is coming from one of our favorite and one of the most prolific producers, Simon Huxtable, aka Inhmost. ‘Space and Awareness’ is the eighth album from Inhmost and a debut release on Tonight’s Dream Records, a record label and mix series based in Brighton, UK.
Inhmost says it best: “Space & Awareness was made at a time when I felt particularly conscious and receptive of the space around me, and I wanted to create an atmosphere that reflected this organically. <> I did not want this album to just be purely ambient, so the use of downtempo beat structures and rhythms felt like a more appropriate way to convey the variety of emotions that I was feeling at the time.”
We don’t know where Simon was producing the album, but each of the seven tracks on it is breathtakingly beautiful, and we are seriously tempted to visit the place that inspired it.
The closing ‘Morning Break’ track sent us to a space that is simultaneously serene and extra-sensory. Listening to it feels like going through some sort of purifying ritual, drifting in a cloud of transparent and unspoiled sound. You come down from its heavenly atmospherics feeling all renewed with recalibrated vision, and instantly wanting to relive it again.

Coming off of contributions to VA releases on Suzie (Cleveland’s fresh faced label), From A Lost Place, and an EP early last year on De Lichting, Queniv is entering 2022 as part of Mirror Tapes Worldwide. Spanning the globe, the aptly named compilation is the first in a series of releases on Melbourne based DJ, and producer Citizen Maze’s new Mirror Tapes label.
Much like the name implies, ‘In The Midst’ embodies those hazy moments where sharp edges are lost, time seems to warp, shifting right before your very eyes. The drums coalesce for the briefest of windows before lapsing back into an esoteric beat. All the while soothing melodic breezes shift around your head providing a respite against the onslaught of what lies ahead.
In The Midst, along with the rest of Mirror Tapes Worldwide will be released on Bandcamp on the 25th of January.

The French imprint Melifera Records finishes the year in style with a four-tracker 'Atacama' EP by Secuencias Temporales and Space Textures affiliate, Eamo. This EP is a whole sensory experience in itself. If you close your eyes and let yourself go, a vast desert - as far as the eye can see - will present itself. Tatooine, defined by its pure bass and sprinkled with de-structured and luminous sounds, feels like a musical hush, putting an end to the tornado of emotions experienced until now. The EP is set for release on January 13th.

Inhmost delivers a six track EP of ambient sonics, aural reprises and vast soundscapes. Themed around the duality of night and day, dark and light, aptly realising the themes on cassette tape, a resurgent medium, part lost in time, part timeless. A journey beyond, destination unknown. 'Nightsky' is a pretty pleasant cosmic journey into which the listener can drift freely into peaceful oscillations layered with beautiful field recordings and melancholic melodies.
Dying Days Light Behind EP is coming out on January 4th via UK-based Captured Visions.

We are happy to conclude 2021 with our last premiere of the year courtesy of Chilean producer and co-founder of Dosis Records, John Plaza. Releasing on the Wales-based NFEREE label, the eight-track ambient techno album 'Altostrados' is full of groovy atmospherics and cinematic synth lines.
‘Eckig’ takes on an immersive odyssey to the low starry sky, creating a dynamic of hypnotic austerity. The underlying warmth of its spacey, dreamy pads and acid-sparkled blips shadowing a trippy-charged percussion, give the way to a lively-spirited emotion to shine through its minimalistic rhythmic skeleton.

Shortly following the release on the Profundo Collective label and a self-released album early in 2021, St.Petersburg-based Alexander Slonovsky aka Morpha closes the year with another wonderfully introspective techno output via Mexico imprint KVLTÖ Records. Each of the four tracks on the ‘Ambivalence’ EP is built on a unified deep tonal palette fluctuating over the energy level and trajectory each takes.
Mellow and hypnotic, the cadence of ‘Yukatan’ does wonders for tranquilizing senses. Contemplative harmony is inherently comforting. Hypnotic rhythmic echoed by soothing, reverberating beats, combined with sedative soundscapes creating an ideal space for meditative drifting and a pleasant disconnect.

After a bit of a hiatus, Blue Veil aka Daniel Clancy is back on his own label, ‘Dichotomy Records’ with a new 5 track release titled ‘Urban Alienation’. Ambient interludes, and break-beat excursions abound as Clancy brings the listener through an emotive journey laced with introspective moments.
Our premiere for today, ‘Imagination Of Ourselves’ pulls at the melodic heartstrings almost immediately. Bittersweet synths set the scene as layer upon layer of intricate percussion is added to great effect. The textured pops and micro beats add enjoyable auditory details into the mix, making for a tight swing and feel to the track.

Make some space under the Christmas tree for the fifth SOMEWHERE compilation and SoHaSo's last release this year. Among the 12 strong contributions, there are familiar faces & label stalwarts such as Sigward, Bas Dobbelaer, and the On Board Music's Laura BCR, who released the excellent 'Initial' EP earlier this year. There are also some new faces on 'SOMEWHERE V.' Paul Twin, known for his psychedelic techno on the Rotterdam-based label Nous'klaer Audio, debuts with our premiere for today - 'Callisto.' 'Callisto' is a mysterious fluid soundscape augmented with melodic sensibility and melancholic reflection that brings something new with each listening.

Leipzig-based prolific producer and DJ Jonas Wernicke, aka Kontinum, returns to the Crescent London label with his signature ethereal atmospherics. The newest addition to the already impressive production output, the Terra Incognita EP features three original tracks and two remixes from Biocym and the London-duo Abstract Man.
Palindrome is driven by the surge of pumping and uncanny force, diving into the eerie, poignant motion without much prelude. The subtle, dominating drums gradually dissolve into a delicate, somewhat disbanded soundscape to resurface again, hinting at the name's origin. Curiously, it rushes seemingly without effort throughout the scattered directing pathway yet manages to stay in the present.

The Psychedelic Romance experience is birthed, combining future-facing electronic music, art and healing. The venture is a collaboration between former Trouw & De School resident JP Enfant, energy practitioner & artist Cuevawolf and artist & label manager Maren Monika Brombeiss. It will offer an immersive sensory experience to its audience via an event series and label, with music produced at 432Hz, a frequency known to uplift emotional wellbeing.
The label strand of Psychedelic Romance comes to life via JP Enfant’s ‘Somewhere Else EP’, a veritable musical Rubik’s Cube encompassing techno, ambient and bass. The five-track work includes a remix of lead track ‘Muzieklokaal’ from Bristol’s acclaimed experimental producer LCY, who reworks the playful original into a dynamic pastiche of industrial breaks and techno.
What is a Dreamwave? Smoke filled rooms, filled to the brim with faceless masses. Fading in and out of focus. The last vestiges of a stress filled week slowly melt away as you immerse yourself into the rhythmic throbbing kicks and snares, the soaring synths pluck at your consciousness, begging for more.
JP Enfant’s Somewhere Else will be out on Psychedelic Romance on November 26th. Write up by @huedj

Buenos Aires-based record label Danza Nativa has become a staple on the deep, tribal techno scene in the last couple of years. The same can be said for one of its co-founders Guido Camino aka Forest On Stasys. From his work in the studio and many phenomenal releases on labels like Danza Nativa, Harmony Rec, Lowless, and Kizen to mind-bending DJ sets, Forest On Stasys has built a distinguished style which reflects in resonant basses perfectly combined with long and reverberated pads, layered with strident percussions. During his explorations, Forest On Stasys usually floats in deep techno and drone ambient realms. We are excited to present you with yet another realm where Forest On Stasys feels like home. For this mix, FOS decided to stay in the same depth, far away from sun rays, but instead of exploring techno realms, this voyage takes us through house dunes that glorify the bottom of the ocean. Here at Delayed, we don't care much about genres, as long as it's deep and not in your face, a bit melancholic with rich atmospheres; you can count on that we'll love it, and this mix is yet another gem in our catalog.

‘Through a vespertine and mysterious realm we walk, mesmerized by naturous vibrance and morphing sonic fabrics.’ Coming from a rising Buenos Aires-based producer Maxi Signiorini aka Collatio, the six-pack ‘Álfar’ album is an arresting collection of the intimately magnetic and contrasting breaking tracks releasing on a fellow Argentinian label Aula Magna.
Like in a dreamy cosmic saga, Bryophyta opens on an exquisite space harmony centering itself in profound warmness. Dazed on a surrounded beauty, inherently unresting chasm coming out from the background. Mingling synthesizers somehow synchronize with ragged rhythm while balancing a fine line with mellow earthy reminiscences. Gradually twisting everything into a neurotic cacophony, the bursting beats pour potent energy into a masterfully recreated internal dissonance.

Dial Records co-founder Carsten Jost has done it again, his latest being a double offering on the fledgling Avant Propos imprint. Founded by Hypallage Project, the Parisian based record label has for their third release, secured both a remix and original from the Berlin based dj, producer, and label head. Our track for today embodies Jost’s innate ability to do more with less, to create feelings and settings within tracks that contain only the barest of elements.
Credit de Cloture is a minimal moment of bliss, reminiscent of those fond memories of times spent dancing through the night in the mid 2000’s. Plucky synths and melodic pads create an atmosphere full of energy that bubbles along playfully tugging at the listener, bringing them towards an emotional crescendo while distorted voices murmur in and out.
Credit de Cloture and the rest of the CRUISE EP is out on November 16, 2021 Write up by @huedj

Curated between continents, the burgeoning South-American via Berlin imprint Technologia Organica has been inspired by nature, sound, patterns, and communication. Organic connections between globally spread-out artists united over a mutual vision on sound, community, and life, resulting in the inaugural 10-track release Organica001. From natural soundscapes to mental hypnotism, each track on the compilation matches different locations, covering a variety of feelings, sensations, and states of mind.
In Organic Motion, the South-American raised Berlin-based Octo Aeterna created a dynamic journey of a mystified mind coming to lucidity from a bemused, dreamy veiled state. Overstepping the spellbound, this step-by-step awakening, somewhat paradoxically steering towards clarity by progressively pairing up a healthy dose of melancholy and optimistic cheer.

What is it about dub techno that makes us love it every time we hear those syncopated, heavily reverberated and delayed sounds? Dub makes it easy to get lost in one's own thoughts; to explore the cavernous recesses of one's mind; to get lost and to let go. And thus most dub productions err on the side of dark echo-y sounds devoid of melody, light and levity. Well, Fluxion's Slide, released on one of the premier dub labels, Echochord, breaks that mold by anchoring the track in dub but infusing it with melodic elements, and a sense of fun and groove. A groovy dub? or a dubby groove? Either way, the track makes it easy to get lost inside oneself, but you'll more likely find yourself tapping your foot than chasing the echo.

Like an auditory blanket on a cold morning, certain producers have almost a calming effect with their music. Providing a sense of warmth, or security with their melodies as they flow through to the listener. Being the soundtrack of so many mornings for myself and others at the Delayed HQ, today we’re happy to premiere Lowdown from Inhmost’s forthcoming ‘Green Space’ release on Stasis Recordings.
Grounded in a series of field recordings, the aptly named release embodies as the label puts, ‘a tranquil hike thru [sic] boreal forests and nomadic wetlands.’ With bubbling brooks and the soft sounds of birds chirping in the distance, there’s something magical about a pairing between the electronic, and natural realms. Lowdown develops at it’s own pace, swelling with wind-like pads that fill the voids left by the stream below. Building to a nice crescendo towards the end before gracefully fading into the mists.
Lowdown, and in turn the rest of Green Space will be released on cassette via Stasis Recordings November 2nd, 2021. Write up by @hue_dj

Today in our cart is a feel-good special: a masterfully prepared entry to a mysteriously welcoming headspace. A closing track on the excellent debut long-player “Rift” by a profound Swedish producer and DJ, Martinou releasing via the Rotterdam-based label that needs no introduction Nous’klaer Audio.
Everything in “...in all its splendor” is downright addictive. The whole palette is so comforting and high on a better life it feels like a properly induced euphoria. On the first accord, you enter space designed to forget it all and deviate from gravity; senses elevated to an intrinsically happier, lighter level. All elements are levitating in perfect balance with each other, all drooling unrestricted kindness. Can’t have enough of it.

We are always looking forward to the next release from one of our favorite labels, Oslated. No surprise, the upcoming Various Artists compilation - Chimhyangmoo 침향무 is another fantastic addition to their already impressive catalog. “Chimhyangmoo” means dancing in the smoke that rises while burning the noble incense of ‘Agarwood.’ Sixteen tracks in this collection cover a broad spectrum of the ultimate dancing experience - from a profoundly hypnotic inner state to an intrinsic energetic boost.
In“Pattern Of Wounds,” a fellow South Korean producer and member of the ASANA Industry collective, Pseudobaul, creates a tangible, dimly glowing cinematographic narrative.
Like a chronicle of an even-paced drifting through the thickness of an immense matter that follows a fascinating pattern of an underground vein. Soft clatter fluctuates in the background tension relics; rhythmic echo-humming interferes with alternating droplets, blobs, and subtle rumbling. Meditating towards deeper stratum, at some point, it takes respite in a beautifully still lacuna till continuing along with a mother lode.

Celebrations… September has turned out to be quite a special month as this Sunday marks a second year set in stone for this particular ambient and downtempo exploration. The last year has seen a fair share of ups and downs, however there always seemed to be the right track appearing to calm the nerves, or build the mood up. The breadth and variety of music coming out seems to never stop and I feel lucky to have an outlet to share what I find through these bandcamp musings. Not to mention the incredible guest mixes that we’ve had the fortune to be sent, for which I also give many thanks. Each providing a stellar personal take on what the creator’s Sunday morning would feel like. Sundays can be a bit daunting at times but I hope for many, this series has provided some much needed respite.

Fresh from the Dutch dub techno, and house label, Spclnch (read Spacelunch) is the forthcoming Labyrinth EP from the mysterious Mielafon. Full to the brim with groove and feeling, our premiere for today lands squarely on Alexander Bogdanov and his take on the title track.
Building upon the melodic cues from the original, the Minsk based Bogdanov takes things in a decidedly more subdued fashion. Letting the chords develop and swell to the forefront, all while peppering in bits of texture, of claps, a hiss here and there. These details all lend towards a warm overall feeling that works well within the confines of bass-line and staccato like high-hats.
Alexander Bogdanov’s remix, and in turn the rest of the EP will be out on Spclnch October 14th. Write up by @huedj

There seems to be a trend of liquid focused samples, those bubbly synths and evolving bleeps and bloops. As much as they're difficult to describe, they fit so well with a steady percussion and aggressive bass-line. The best way to describe would be peak time 11 to 12pm, or rather 22 to 23hr for our European counterparts. Those tracks that get you excited for the night to come. So much tension to build upon and a night ahead to embrace and let free. What a special moment.
Hats off to Mordio and in turn IO Records for a fantastic EP. We recommend checking the rest of release out, as it is stellar. Write up by @huedj

Continuing their extensive V/A series, the sixth installment of Various Artists is coming to the French Accents Records label. With eighteen tracks, the ACCENTVA006 compilation is a creative, open-minded curation aiming to promote an “outside the limits of the overly codified deep techno field” approach to music. The album is a diverse, loosely defined selection of ambient, experimental, and techno works from well-known and rising talents, spotlighting new faces among regular contributors to the label.
Produced by the Brussel-based co-founder of Norite label and DJ Souleiman Bacar, aka lunar convoy, Delta Trancer is a hypnotic ride into a dubbed down, no-hustle territory.
First, it grasps attention by the signature trip-hop(ish) groove, steadily proceeding with the confidence of an engine driven over the acid bass-line. Next - a shattered, almost imbalanced breakbeat progression, like a curtain, slightly opens inner workings. Then - promptly building back the rhythmic harmony - this time with a synthesized injection of the satisfying, energetic burst. Powered by a no-nonsense slow-burning internal combustion, the track moves towards the softer, somewhat inhabited, mesmerizingly soulful side. Write up by @elena-lisovin

Emotive, deep, soulful. A few of the descriptors that one can use to describe Daniel[i] and his body of music. Whether the sound is an ambient soundscape, or that of a thrilling techno story, the breadth, and quality of his releases are undoubtable. Today, the Aachen-based DJ and producer is joined by Purl, aka Illuvia, another incredible producer who has graced many a Delayed top 10 and curated list. The two combined is such a sublime pairing and we’re incredibly happy to premiere, ‘Compensate’ off their forthcoming EP, the third release under Daniel[i]’s own imprint, Whispering Signals.
Coming in under the A2 slot in the four-track EP, Compensate draws from both producers’ mastery of downtempo, atmospheric production. Evoking visions of distant tundras swept by swirling winds. The air is crystal clear as a night sky filled with stars that shine down upon a lone traveler moving swiftly but surely through the lands to an unknown destination.

Fresh from the Dutch powerhouse label, Something Happening Somewhere is Utrecht based, DJ and producer Luna Ludmila’s dub mix of Maan. Our premiere for today, and a very deepchord-esque, Mike Schommer sounding one at that. Providing an alternative take for the spoken word of Shari Klein. Drawing on the verbal philosophical wanderings as a stark contrast to the dubbed out base. Rounding out the remaining remixes are SoHaSo head, Nuno Dos Santos, Patrice Baumel, and Luca dell'Orso and the release will be out on the 4th of October.

It's a special treat to come across a track that effortlessly sends you on a gentle roll along the feel-good emotions from the first accords. Equally impressive is that it's coming on the Zurich-based Project Indigo - the label collaborating with The Stand For Trees and OneTreePlanted foundations to collectively support reforestation initiatives by raising awareness and funds through music releases and events.
Their first vinyl debut with their second various artists compilation as part of the 'efflorescence' series, the efflorescence ii [PI001], does precisely that - releases a variety of music bound by the different shades of deep with all proceeds go to purchasing UN-accredited Co2 credits.
Produced by one of the label co-founders, Karl Primo, aka lb. honne, b2 "Hydroshells" is the epitome of storytelling we are delightedly premiering today. Remember the moment of deep satisfaction; a careless me-time; lighthearted childhood memory; or the earthy smell that permeates everything when the rain stops and the sun rays beaming through clouds. Something so distinctly pleasant that you recognize it right away, yet not necessarily want to define it, simply enjoying the emotional state it creates.

Special times and moments, as the soundtrack of this morning has wonderfully been provided by none other than Irina Kotik. Those close to Delayed will know how fantastic it is to see her expanding into other realms of musical expression, as her taste and artistic guidance as one of the Delayed founders is undoubted. Throughout the years, her passion has never wavered and her dedication to promoting and exposing the best in music, unmatched. Today though, we shine the spotlight on her, for this joyous occasion. With all of that being said, grab a coffee, tea, what have you and enjoy the morning sounds of Irina Kotik.

Currently based in New York, La'Brooy presents an emotional and contemplative record that leans on acoustic instrumentation, drawing on collaborations with a range of New York and Melbourne based jazz musicians, and a remix from Other Joe. Those familiar with the nine records released under Albrecht La'Brooy will recognise the expressive piano and synth lines that feature. Here, the piano Jazz and Improvisation graduate creates space for long-form solos from himself and featuring instrumentalists. True to what we expect from the ever-maturing Analogue Attic, this is a listening album; orchestrated pads with dance-leaning rhythms meet piano chords, guitar and brass melodies. Arranged with the idea of the contemplative state experienced during a solo commute, as the name Out Moving Windows alludes to.
Our focus for today, ‘Northcote, Winter Solstice’ is an uplifting number, with a bouncing melody and nostalgic vocal loop used throughout. Bringing on feelings of warmth and memories of days gone past.

Sundays are for…
A year of discoveries. Thinking back through the last year, there has been a plethora of fantastic labels, and artists that have passed under the Sundays banner. This Sunday and month in general also marks the second year of monthly playlists, and guest mixes. The latter of which is our focus for today as we welcome an incredible producer, Inhmost. From beat to beat-less, his refined approach to crafting ambient mixes provides listeners with auditory tales that flow so well, all while working in a variety of moods and feelings. This mix provides in spades, as such we’re incredibly happy to soundtrack this Sunday morning with Inhmost.
Tracklist:
Inhmost - Healing Hand(RE:ST) Inhmost - Beautiful Eyes (Forthcoming on Tonights Dream) Inhmost - Tripwire (Forthcoming on Stasis Recordings) Barefoot & The Vision Reels - Internal Wave 2(Captured Visions) Barefoot - Spirit Animal (Kizen) James Bernard - Ingress (ASIP) Marine Eyes - On This Fresh Morning (Stereoscopic Records) 36 - A Lament for England (3six Recordings) Inhmost - Stay Calm (Forthcoming on Tonights Dream) Inhmost - Everything is New (La Luna) Ludvig Cimbrelius - I Would Sing to You (PITP) Barefoot - /// The Vision Reels - /// Phelan Kane - Monotonicity(Inhmost Remix) (Forthcoming on Bulletdodge Records) Inhmost - Natures Way (Forthcoming on Captured Visions) Akuratyde - /// ASC & Inhmost - Obscured Forms (Auxiliary)

From the depths of dub techno, we arise today with the tones of NonniMal’s ‘Hverfisgata’ which is also the title track of his debut LP on the storied Thule Records. For the last few years, the Reykjavik-based DJ and producer has been honing his style of atmospheric, sweeping sounds with releases on Æ Recordings, and LAHAR.
Hverfisgata is a journey through a decidedly natural soundstage. With birds chirping throughout, coinciding with the proverbial blasts of ‘wind’, the expansive, textured synths bring an air of discord out. Something is brewing in the distance, the calm before the proverbial storm.

A high-class, sublime, percussive, introspective, dancefloor masterpiece from an all-star line-up that inaugurates a brand new label! Welcome to the world of Kilómetro 4.5.
Out of Tulum, Kilómetro 4.5 is birthed. Branching out from the Papaya Playa Project umbrella, its curators have created an extremely special home for electronic music idols and up-and-coming artists alike.
Kilómetro 4.5’s first voyage of sound navigates the airwaves as a compilation of unique tracks from pioneering producers created uniquely for Kilómetro 4.5.
"Compilation Vol. 1" features tracks by Dorisburg, Sebastian Mullaert, Wareika and Kalabrese.
Electronic music stalwart Sebastian Mullaert (Circle of Live/Minilogue) appropriately follows suit with incomprehensible and inimitable levels of depth on his appropriately titled track 'No Menace'. 4x4 kicks lull you into a continuous state of hypnotism that he has come to master over the decades of production he is so well known for.

Today's premiere is a beautifully written emotion accompanying the inception of a new day produced by Artos Eleven, the alias of Arthur Bðhl from Avignon, and Lyon-based Emiliano Germain, aka Ethernet. Amadis is a closing track on the intriguing Artos Eleven's first "Decayed Tree" EP coming out on the French Melifera Records label. Inspired by the surrounding flora and fauna of southeastern France's landscapes, the four-track EP features different tempos and remixes from Forest on Stasys and Eyvind Blix.
Amadis is a rare case of the sublime interpretation of those peaceful early mornings full of harmony and quietness, properly saturated in intensely positive vitality. Unharried in sensual awakening with dreamlike, meditative stimuli, the track does its fascinating magic in instilling hope, gently nourishing the spirit, and setting an ascending tone ahead.

Throughout the last several years, our beloved Delayed platform has been growing. Each and every day, shining a spotlight upon fresh faces, storied veterans and everyone in between. Building relationships, introducing new ones, always striving to make a mark. Today, I’m overjoyed to help shine the spotlight upon the core of Delayed, the musical north star if you will, that is Gilles Wasserman and Irina Kotik aka Moon Patrol. Hearing and watching their journey deeper into production has been quite the ride. As time passed, each new snippet and track seemed more refined, more complex, more, dare I say, them? To see your friends hitting their stride is a special sight, made all the sweeter by the support they’ve given other artists in days past. I hope they feel a tenth of what they’ve given out.
Fresh off their Moofter release on Laura BCR’s ‘On Board Music’, Moon Patrol’s next offering, ‘Moxie’ dives deep into a world, rich with lush pads, warm percussion, all lending towards painting an auditory motif that would match any of those special morning moments. Ones where an all encompassing mist slowly gets burned away by a rising sun exposing the forest below. Almost as if the entire world was waking simultaneously.
Moxie is one part of a 14 track compilation named "Migung 미궁" being released on the fantastic South Korean-based label, Huinali Recordings at the end of this month. Moon Patrol will be joined by other Delayed favorites such as Adhémar, Inhmost, Doltz, Ocram Orchestra, Daniel[i], OWL, and more.
Once again the Delayed family grows!

Saphileaum is one of the monikers of Tbilisi-based multi-disciplinary artist Andro Gogibedashvili, who is certainly not a stranger here at Delayed. His releases on labels like Silent Season, Oslated, Diffuse Reality, Norite, Annuled Music, NYAME, and the most recent one on Good Morning Tapes gained international recognition. They highlighted Andro's sound inspired by esoteric, new age, cosmic and visionary art and teachings. Saphileaum's approach in the studio and behind the decks brings something mystical, yet relaxing allowing listeners to find their ideal setting and enjoy the music tales told by this incredibly talented artist. The mix Saphileaum made for us is storytelling at its core. Listening to it feels like traveling through different realms in a day. From ambient, tropical, downtempo, and cosmic during the daytime, which reflects in the first part of the mix, to darker, rumbling techno and tribal during the night in the second part of the mix. This is yet another brilliant output from the artist we highly respect and look forward to hearing more from.

Germany-based imprint Whispering Signals presents a first various artists compilation in HOWLONGISNOW series featuring tracks by El Choop, hems, Pattrn, Nobod, Abraço de Vapor, and label founder Daniel[i]. Each track on the compilation is around 10min long and represents a deeply meditative journey that allows a listener to drift away and find complete solace. Our premiere for today 'Night Whispers' comes from incredibly talented Swedish producer Ludvig Cimnbrellius aka Purl, aka Illuvia. With his latest creation, 'Night Whispers,' Ludvig presents his new moniker Abraço de Vapor and creates an ethereal beatless atmosphere ideal for moments of serenity and self-reflection. Crystal pads layered with field recordings of crickets and wind chimes, with melancholic sub-bass in the background, produce an aura of tranquility that feels like a steam hug.

For each Sunday's guest mix, and in turn mix, a special emphasis is put on having that personal feeling or touch. Those mornings can be particularly poignant and I believe capturing that in sound adds an edge to music chosen.
With that in mind, Barcelona based Rodrigo Garcia has crafted a delightfully deep hour-long mix as he puts it, ‘to investigate your interior.’ Those not familiar with the name, Garcia is the musical director of Diffuse Reality, Teorema Festival and Periphylla. His mixes and productions range throughout the lands of Techno and beyond, much like the breadth of the mix he’s presenting today. A ‘special session of ambient sounds, drones, with textures and atmospheres to relax the mind, body and soul’.

Much like the name implies, Internal Wave 3 from the collaboration of The Vision Reels & Barefoot rolls out of the murky mists, with airy pads and tendrils of sound. All slowly rolling over the listener, basking in the blissful notes. With an ocean motif being the focus of this release, titled ‘Internal Wave Sequence 1’, bubbly synths, and textured waves crashing on a beach abound. Providing a wonderfully calming soundscape that transports the listener to the nearest shore.
Internal Wave 3 is out along with the rest of this stellar release on UK based Captured Visions.

Munich-based IO Records welcomes back one of its co-founders Dycide for his fourth outing on the label, a six-tracker 'Qusqu' EP, which also includes a remix by Kaf. The EP opens up with a subtle melancholic Ambient voyage, 'Waira,' that perfectly sets the tone for the rest of the release, which gets groovier but keeps those melancholic vibes throughout the whole EP. Our premiere for today 'Hanaq' explores the depths of Techno and represents Dycide's style in its best fashion. 'Hanaq' is driven by rumbling toms and a wavy bassline that travels around the spectrum, creating a bedrock for the magic that awaits. The magic unfolds with mellow pads and distant bells that bring fragility, which perfectly contrasts the otherwise dark and deep foundation, creating a mesmerizing Deep Techno excursion that resembles late nights/early mornings when you are ready to let go of things and travel to different dimensions.
'Qusqu' EP is coming out on August 10th via IO Records

With almost twenty years of experience in the studio, Andrey Kurokhtin, aka Shine Grooves, has polished his style, which was initially inspired by the sound of Kompakt releases in the early '00s, into wonderful, ever-changing storytelling that covers broad spectrums of Electronic music. During his musical endeavors, Andrey launched three record labels Biotronic and vinyl-only Quadrat Records and Hanagasumi Records. Besides releasing on his imprints, Shine Grooves is a usual suspect on one of our favorite record labels out there, Kimochi Sound. The mix Andrey prepared for us is made of his original work that is either unreleased or soon to be released on vinyl. It's a mesmerizing fairy tale that is serene, laid back, yet groovy enough to get you moving while enjoying it on one of the rooftops during these hot summer days. Melancholic melodies and shiny grooves by Shine Grooves.

Founder and sole curator of Connection Verified, ADMINISTRATOR, presents: underADMINISTRATION, our first official full-length album and 21st release on the Connection Verified Recordings series. Its penultimate work, underADMINISTRATION contains 11 original tracks representing the digitality of ADMINISTRATOR’s world. The tracks range from blissful electronic explorations, stripped back rhythmic cuts, and straight up bleep funk, to contorted drum tracks, full force club weapons, and oddball synthesised experiments.
Our premiere for today 'sample.28h-voc' is a melodic techno journey that is driven by hypnotic arpeggio which is pierced through by haunting synth stabs that add drama to the track.
underADMINISTRATION is coming out on July 26th via Connection Verified.

A familiar name to many at our Delayed HQ, Plant 43 has quite the storied past with releases on Semantica, Central Processing Unit, Shipwrec, Eudemonia as well as his own self-titled, Plant43 Recordings. Today we’re happy to premiere ‘Unknown Structure’ the title track from his latest EP off of Future Massive. Unknown Structure is a top peak time electro tune, tinged with sweeping pads that provide a nice juxtaposition to the gritty synths and aggressive breakbeat percussion.

We are beyond excited about today's premier hitting close to home! Following the last month's debut under the Moon Patrol moniker on 'The Meaning of Time III' compilation, our very own Gilles Wasserman is releasing his first EP! Long time in the making, the five-track "Emma's Hiding" EP produced together with his life partner Irina Kotik sees the light via the Leipzig-based A Friend In Need record label. Each track on the EP explores a particular range of, sometimes uneasy, emotions. Each built on a rich, contrasting sonic palette of the intricate organic beats and the dreamy, slightly melancholic melodies refined by the openly computerized, synthetic elements. The inherent difference between the two creates a curious harmonic tension, like a call for spiritual decoding of humanity extending ourselves across a posthuman machine-hybrid world. Closing the journey, EP's namesake "Emma's Hiding" is an introspective, airy saga gradually evolving into a wonderfully unsettling hypnotic state. Once wandering beats decisively settle the pace; floating soundscapes arise onto a peaceful, reflective background; and the crisp, casually nostalgic keyboard melody merges with a robotic, albeit still in analog form, roll call; and you have a feeling of figuring it all out - the voice sample adds an unexpected dimension, steering the thoughts towards the greater vitality of our still socially gated human connections. "Emma's Hiding" EP is out on the A Friend In Need label on July 15, 2021

Most of us are still in the ‘transition’ period when going back to the dance floor and partying. After more than a year, it feels surreal being surrounded by friends and strangers, sharing the energy of the music, and welcoming the Sun during the after hours. The mix we are excited to present to you today comes from Horkheimer, the co-curator of The Live in Robert Johnson record label (https://soundcloud.com/live-at-robert-johnson)and founder of KLINIKA (https://soundcloud.com/klinikamusik). It is a perfect soundtrack for the interim state we are in right now and reminiscent of the beginning of the club night when DJ slowly prepares the crowd for the marathon ahead. The art of warm-up DJ is almost gone and a skill that takes years to master.
During this 70min, Horkheimer manages to masterfully create a warm-up set ‘sampler’ and takes a listener for quite a journey which slowly unfolds from leftfield electronica to depths of dub techno and closing this chapter with marvelous track ‘Swallowing Tubes’ by Robert Dietz, which is coming out soon on LARJ.

Days of warmth, and sun. Here in Brooklyn, summer has arrived. Hazy mornings and long afternoons mark the passing of time. It’s to Brooklyn and in turn Micah Frank that we look for this morning’s inspiration and sound track. The electronic producer, and label head of Puremagnetik has a long history of working in several different mediums. Whether by molding programming and sound into generative soundscapes, or layering field recordings and blending samples, his taste is immaculate and deep.

TRACKLIST:
The latest gem in the ever-inspiring Hypnus Records catalog comes from Rotterdam-based Rambadu, a relative newcomer who spent his recent years researching the energetic powers and healing properties of sound. In 2019 and 2020, Rambadu released two successful EPs on his label (the latter including a fantastic remix by Luigi Tozzi). For his collaboration with Hypnus, Rambadu delivers a four-tracker ‘Ajna’ - an incredible tribal techno journey that keeps on giving with each new listening. Rambadu’s use of live percussions and acoustic instruments paired with hardware devices and modulated field recordings shine in its brightest light in the ‘Ajna’ EP. The closing track and our premiere for today, ‘Visie,’ is an after-hour tribal-techno delight. The driving rhythm, a heartbeat of ‘Visie,’ layered with organic percussive intricacies, is an ideal foundation for drone pads and field recordings to do their magic in the background and create quite a hypnotic atmosphere. ‘Ajna’ EP is coming out on June 24th via Hypnus Records.

We are happy to present you with a new mix in our 'Delayed with...' series, coming from one of our favorite producers and DJs, Molly. Over the years, Molly has been one of the hardest working DJs whose growth was steady and natural. There is no 'important club' in the world whose decks Molly hasn't graced yet. Still, she certainly reached new highs in the last couple of years with a series of fantastic releases on labels like Dial, Giegling, AEX, Yoyaku, and Cin Cin, to name a few.
Founding her own record label, Recit De Voyage, in 2017. allowed Molly to expand her curation skills and introduce music from new talents worldwide and new music from her friends.
In light of the new release - 'Recit De Voyage volume 4', a compilation that features tracks from Mary Yalex, Laura BCR, Orion, and Katie Drover, Molly recorded this wonderful mix in her sunny studio with a sea view in Corsica. The mix features tracks from the 'Recit De Voyage volume 4' and some of Molly's latest favorites.

Closely following an excellent LP released on Semantica earlier this year, Dimitris Donald Kananis and Anastasio Gambinothe - two masterminds behind the Artificial DRM moniker, are back with their next creation for the sixth release on F-on’s label Alpenglühen.
In a new release, the very talented Greek duo shows once again a striking emotional fluency of their distinctive aesthetics. Occupying a space between the deepest shades of techno and bewitching ambient, Enigma is a sure way out from the past year’s lethargy in the form of 5 ethereal heartwarming tracks.
We are delighted to premiere Trollskogen - a beautiful, expressive journey into one’s deep senses. A mixture of intricately driving rhythm, mystical soundscape, and evocative airy pads build up a surprisingly vivid sentimental tension. Grooving seemingly without effort and almost spared of melancholy, it carries on mastering a feeling of a remarkable emotive resurrection.

Today’s Delayed premiere comes from quite a few of our favorite people and it’s a joy to see their names together on a release. On Board Music label head, Laura BCR is debuting her wonderfully deep and nuanced sounds with SoHaSo. Her taste is impeccable, and it’s no surprise to see this release come to light under the Dutch label. Between her Rinse.fm radio show, compiling tracks for ‘The Meaning Of Time’ series, releasing DJ mixes, and production, it’s amazing to see the quality and attention to detail that never wavers.
5 Elements is the third of the five-track ‘Initial’ EP and a collaboration with the Buenos Aires-based Forest On Stasys. Signature off-kilter drums throughout the track provide a stark natural contrast to the wide-ranging synths and pads that give off a sense of foreboding, a calm before the storm to come.

Young talented producer hailing from Brussels, noc:turne is not a stranger here at Delayed. With his previous two releases, 'Expo 58' and 'Somewhere in Time,' released via Right Hand Corner, noc:turne has presented his style influenced by record labels like Giegling and Kann. His third outing on Right Hand Corner, 'pas:sage' (a play on words in french meaning unwise), continues in a similar fashion and brings us a four-track EP consisting of some of his earlier works refreshed and put together in an excellent package. The opening track and our premiere for today, 'Pluie,' sets the tone for the rest of the release with a dazzling mood and ethereal atmosphere. The track starts with rumbling bass, thunder, and rain in the background, which create a haunting moment that almost instantly dissolves into a serene atmosphere when airy, delicate pads fade in and create the melancholy mood for this beautiful track. With its broken beat, sampled vocals, and aforementioned serene atmosphere, 'Pluie' makes an ideal partner for your next road trip or closing track during the sunset overlooking Manhattan (it's so lovely having these back again).

After the remix work of Glyder Fach's 'Owner Of A Lonely Heart,' Leipzig-based producer Lootbeg makes a triumphant come back to British imprint 'The Legend of Gelert' with a marvelous four-track EP 'Tryfan' named after one of the most recognizable peaks in Britain. For the eighth release 'The Legend of Gelert's series, Lootbeg delivers the ultimate feel-good summer package. Our premiere for today, 'Time Will Melt Down Your Capsule Of Ice,' is a classic Deep House tune. With its haze, ethereal pads, and groovy bassline, the track almost instantly catches up listener into a 'swing mode.' But the magical 'put your hands up in the air' atmosphere happens with its super catchy melody that perfectly wraps up around the rest of the elements and never lets go once it's introduced around the two-minute mark. 'Time Will Melt Down Your Capsule Of Ice' is a feel-good Deep House track that will put smiles on people's faces this summer. 'Tryfan' Ep is coming out on June 15th via 'The Legend of Gelert'

When Moritz von Oswald and Mark Ernestus pioneered Dub Techno in the early '90s, a genre with origins in Detroit, Germany, and Caribbeans, the majority thought that is just a moment and that it will be short-lived. Thirty years after and the genre still keeps 'reinventing' itself with countless releases by several generations of producers who keep pushing the boundaries and keep exploring the genre's depths. In theory, Dub Techno has a simple formula - rhythm and texture. With technology nowadays, producers can dig deeper and further develop these two ingredients and make something unique. The Vilnius-based record label, Greyscale is known for its Dub Techno aesthetics and it's been around for almost a decade. Their latest release, 'Dancing Street/Skyscraper Street', welcomes Martin Schulte, a talented producer hailing from Russia, to their impressive catalog. This double-single release is accompanied by brilliant remixes from Greyscale founder grad_u and Giegling and Delsin affiliate Vril. Vril's remix of 'Skyscraper Street' brings the pure essence of Dub Techno, a genre that broke new ground in terms of electronic music that one might listen to away from the dance floor. The track is a slow-burner with lots of details that flicker and create a cosmic atmosphere that can do wonders on your home set up as well as the part of a warm-up set during the Techno marathon in a dark club. 'Dancing Street/Skyscraper Street' is coming out on June 16th via Greyscale.

Throughout the last year, everyone, yes everyone has been through a series of personal highs, and lows. How each of us has dealt with that emotional roller coaster differs. With that being said, a common theme has arisen. One that is a general appreciation of what we had before, and the stark absence of, was a truly humbling experience. For many in the musical realm, their focus turned inwards, drawing upon the inspirations that started them on the path that they’re so far along today. Across the spectrum of music, there was a proliferation of non-club-focused music, the in-between, the esoteric, the experimental sounds.
Today we’re happy to premiere Imaginary Landscape from Simone Gatto’s fourth full length album, titled Mindful Life. Throughout, Gatto focuses on the relationship between music and awareness, a connection that lends towards storytelling, and one that we love at Delayed. Imaginary Landscapes sits towards the end of the release, and acts as a sublime segue into the ending of the album. A taste if you will, of what is to come. The tempo slows, the textures appear, life seems to come to a crawl. All of this, packed to the brim with warm pads and a sense of serenity. What more is there to ask for?
Imaginary Landscapes, and in turn Mindful Life will be released late June on Pregnant Void.

There is a running joke at the Delayed headquarters that our blog's name is not just a sound processing effect but a way of life for all of our teammates: we eventually arrive where we're aiming to go, but we do take our sweet time getting there. There is "fashionably late" and then there is "delayed"! To say that Moon Patrol has been fashionably late to release their debut track would be a huge understatement: I could most certainly create an entire mix from all ideas and sounds that ended up on the cutting room floor, as Irina and Gilles, the dynamic duo behind Moon Patrol and founders of our blog, honed in their craft and sculpted their sound. Pretty melodies gave way to groovy house-y ditties which, in turn, receded to allow more textural experimentations and atmospheric deep dives. Only to end up on the cutting room floor. Not good enough? Of course they were, but "not quite there". And now, finally, the moment has arrived where both artists have put down their Ableton controllers, listened to their creation and proclaimed "'Tis time!"..or, perhaps, "Moofter!". The track is a culmination of a long journey and it shows: it's balanced, mature and deftly conveys what both artists are trying to say. It envelops without sounding grand; it's aurally complex without sounding experimental; it's engaging without resorting to a catchy melody. It has that elusive of qualities in electronic music: it's organic and it just flows. To say that Moon Patrol's Moofter is fashionably late would be to insult the exhaustive artistic and creative search that occurred prior to its release. Therefore, we can only say one thing about Moon Patrol: "it's delayed".
"Moofter" is part of On Board Music's "The Meaning Of Time part III" charity compilation set to be released on June 4h.

Passion has many forms. Some displays may be extravagant, and others subtle. Throughout the world of Delayed and many others, Andrey Pushkarev inhabits both realms, incredibly well. His club sets are nuanced and poignant. With pacing first and foremost, always with the right track at the right time. His ambient and breakbeat mixes the same. Rarely does someone execute so well across genres with high attention to detail. Today, we're proud to release another entry into Andrey's ongoing story.

After two outstanding releases on Kimochi Sound, numerous releases on his own Continental Drift Records, and phenomenal album 'Mantras' on Otake Records that came out just a few months ago, Conoley Ospovat has, slowly but surely, become one of our favorite producers here at Delayed. His groovy House style is perfectly suited for the dance floor but equally does wonders if you decide to listen to it while chilling at home. For this occasion, Conoley prepared a special live set, made entirely of his productions. It features some new, recent, and older music from him that wonderfully represents Conoley's style and brings positive vibes from sunny Lincoln in Nebraska.

After their debut EP 'Issho,' from a few years ago, Den Haag/Manchester-based project Tryst is back to Apparel Tronic with a beautiful 'Aerious' EP. Masterminds behind Tryst, Jordan and Enhua Bruce and Larry Jones created a wonderful record for tranquil and laid back settings. Something to be enjoyed in the sunshine with some ice-cold beverages or late at night next to a fireplace with a bottle of wine. Each track is sonically compiled with a place in mind, taking inspiration from long drives along coastal lands and meditative moments on the beach to hidden pathways in cities, blooming botanical gardens, and long jaunts through mountains. Our premiere for today, 'Alcove,' is definitely the track created with a long drive in mind. It's groovy and driving and, as such, the track that will represent this release on dance floors worldwide. 'Alcove' would be an ideal soundtrack for a ride in a convertible along the French Riviera or Californian coast during the sunset. 'Aerious' EP is coming out on June 25th.

Polygonia returns to the home ground, IO records with the third EP named "Deformed Human Nature." The four-track EP presents Polygonia in her typical fashion, pushing organically created rhythms "one step further."

It's one of those tracks that create a perfect 'calm before the storm' on the dance floor.

A few months ago, we had a nice chat with rising Colombian star Raquel Rivera-Lys aka Adi, about her phenomenal debut album BM14, which was released in December last year via Basic Moves. We fell in love with Adi's eclectic and energetic style that has become her trademark both in-studio and behind the decks. The mix Adi made for us is an eclectic house extravaganza that features tracks by artists like Doctor Rockit, DJ Mostoles, Launaea, The Orb, Walrus and Portable to name a few. The mix also features a track from the upcoming 'For Playful Manners 01' release - the inaugural release from Basic Moves sub-label that Adi founded with Basic Moves head honcho Michiel Claus aka Walrus. Get ready for a trippy, uplifting journey that sounds like a perfect soundtrack for hot summer days on rooftops.

After two great compilations released back in October 2020 and February this year, Crescent London imprint starts off their EP series, welcoming Hayes Collective founder Enkō. In 'Codon' EP, the Portuguese producer offers a journey through detailed dub territories, hypnotic and textured, rhythmic and meditative. The release is both consistent and varied, starting this EP series with a warm dub feel. Nternal Bserver's remix of the title track is a rumbling deep dub techno journey with a subtle melodic sequence in the background, making it an ideal warm-up track.

Two heavy hitters of the musical world have collaborated to create a special split EP. AEX, a great sub-label of the incredible Indigo Aera and the storied Delsin records have selected three artists a piece to create a well-rounded release that will usher us into a delightful early summer here in Brooklyn. From AEX comes Taupe, Emeline (aka Molly), and label co-owner Jasper Wolff, and from Delsin we have a few fresh faces, R.O.W.S, Annie Hall, and Yone-ko rounding out the crew.
The Barcelonian based Annie Hall is our focus of today, however. Her electro-tinged TTO hits a sweet spot of groove and flows with a few light pads filling the gaps. The broken beats provide a great percussive base to the high-flying synths and reminisce of a few SoHaSo releases that are near and dear to our respective hearts.
TTO and the rest of the EP will be out on June 4th. We’ll be looking forward.

Griff Fulton, aka Aspetuck, continues the story he started in 2020 with his debut album 'Treehouse At Yuma Place' with a fantastic sequel 'The Bees Came Back.' An eight-track album is inspired by the time Aspetuck spent in a very special house up in the trees of Laurel Canyon during the beginning stages of the pandemic, a time of intense uncertainty and introspection. 'The Bees Came Back' LP sees Aspetuck further exploring different corners of House and IDM spiced with, and now we can easily say his signature broken beat style. The opening track, 'Naturally Essenced' starts with a bass stab and catchy melody, which go hand in hand and allow other elements gently to fade in. Kick drum, which is introduced almost halfway through this journey, carries the melody that smoothly opens up into a theme that instantly gets stuck in one's head. It's one of those melodies that you can whistle and sets a nice positive vibe for the whole track and the album in general.
'The Bees Came Back' LP is coming out on May 15th

Today’s premiere comes from a label that has, over the last year or so become a close follow for myself and has graced a few of our ‘Bandcamp Pick’ lists. The Mexico City based ‘Secuencias Temporales’, precise artistic vision and breadth of their releases mesh well with us at Delayed and we’re happy to premiere ‘Urama’ off their forthcoming Aucuba Replica release.
If the name doesn’t sound familiar, Aucuba Replica represents the creative output of two Delayed favorites, Adhémar and Olorun. A combination that explores sound design grounded by field recordings and seemingly similar motifs that upon closer inspection contain a multitude of different details.
Urama and in turn the rest of the release evoke visions of an unnamed jungle, through various states of clarity, light, and dark. The mists obscuring most of the inner workings, with the calls of birds echoing through the trees. Urama is a journey through the depths.
'Urama' is scheduled for release on May 17th

'Pad' EP is the result of a collaboration between spoken word artist Shari Klein and Dwaalgast. They have been friends for years; after Shari started writing (erotic) poems in the summer of 2020, the idea arose to get into the studio and immerse Shari's lyrics in the sounds of Dwaalgast. The result is an EP with stories about connecting, going deep, and the moon. About letting go and thinking about what matters. Pad gives Dutch spoken word a new spirit where music, audio collage, and words come together in a new way. She takes you to dark nights, sweaty armpits, and long paths that you still seek to walk.
This is what Shari told us about the title track 'Pad' during our little chat: It's about the ups and downs I experienced more than ever the past year. About the things that started mattering to me more. Hanging on to the highs and diving into them entirely, not just a little bit. But also indulging in the lows and shit moments in life. Letting them be. Not holding on to things too much, but just letting them happen. Being vulnerable. Embracing that.
Dwaalgast's arpeggiated synths are an ideal foundation for Shari's lyrics that give a distinct positive after-taste to the track and feel that despite the turmoil many of us have gone through in the past year, everything will be alright at the end. The color of Shari's voice fits just perfectly with Dwaalgast's music, so even if you don't understand Dutch, 'Pad' is a very pleasant track to listen to.

After his Sungate debut in 2020, Cape-Town-based Deano presents Curveball 2.0. Knowledge Imprint's founder's new contribution follows perfectly from his previous release as he displays the diversity of music styles that influence him. With a combination of warm, dubbed out, and energetic techno, this package contains three originals and two outstanding remixes - one from Detroit icon Luke Hess and the other from Dutch duo D&S.
Luke Hess' take on Curveball 4 brings recognizable dub techno style by Detroit's legendary producer. Punchy kick drum layered with cosmic pads, and the acid bassline is pierced through with dubby stabs which create an ultimate after-hour dance floor destroyer. 'Curveball 2.0' EP is coming out May 7th via Sungate records.

2021 has seen a rise of New York via Vermont producer Aspetuck, who's been having a phenomenal string of releases on labels like Lagaffe Tales, A Friend In Need, and XLR8R. In just a few weeks, the string continues, and the Aspetuck story will get 'a main chapter' in the form of his sophomore album 'The Bees Came Back.' The album highlights the producer's vast musical taste and attention to complex rhythms. The versatility of Aspetuck's productions has a common denominator - quality, which perfectly reflects in the mix Aspetuck made for us. Aspetuck patiently develops the storyline from cosmic Ambient and Electronica to Deep House to rumbling Techno, Acid, and Breaks during this two-hour journey. This type of mix has no expiration date; it's storytelling in its most refined form.

Deep and twisting syncopated beats are a staple here at Delayed. There’s something about the off-kilter sounds that truly pique our interest and ears. Something off the beaten path, a bit less heard, a bit more unique. Today’s premiere from South African producer, Shervaan Bergsteedt is another foray into that realm.
To set the scene, Thantophobia elicits images of a starry night sky, sitting around a campfire flanked by nature’s animalistic hum, providing an ebb and flow of life. The various leads and synths giving voice to those indistinct animalistic chatter. The thump of the kick pulsing through the night, and a voice flowing through it all, almost like a breeze.
Thantophobia, and the rest of the ‘Cockaigne’ EP is out on Round Robin Recordings April 30th.

Today’s mix is a winding road through the mind of Ataxy aka David Eßer. The Hamburg-based ambient producer has been enveloping listeners in a warm blanket of sound and texture for over a decade. His skill in production brings such a fantastic dynamic and depth in his releases that it’s an instant hook for more on first listen. Ataxy has also graced the Sundays playlist several times through his releases on Healing Sound Propagandist, and Faint. All being said, we’re happy to have Ataxy providing the soundtrack for this Sunday...

Our Brooklyn-Amsterdam connection has been growing stronger each day in the past few years. The bond our platform has with artists and labels from Amsterdam is truly special. The amount of talented artists and quality music that emerges (almost feels like daily) from the vibrant Dutch scene is mind-boggling. In that type of environment you really need to do something original and of high quality to get recognized. One of the record labels that has been on a steady rise since their initial release in 2017, Kalahari Oyster Cult seems to be making all the right moves. For all good reasons, Kalahari Oyster Cult is considered as one of the most exciting imprints nowadays which pushes the boundaries of electronic music with each new release and is home to artists like Roza Terenzi, Erell Ranson, Cleveland, A Psychic Yes and Reptant to name a few.
The mastermind behind all this is Rey Colino, DJ and curator, whose mixes have been on heavy rotation in our HQs. In 2020, Colino started a new project - a vinyl-focused distribution service One Eye Witness. The project acts as a missing link between record labels and artists that share similar philosophies and provides them with a foundation to further develop. By being the main curator for both Kalahari Oyster Cult and One Eye Witness and with the amount of quality music that goes through his hands on a daily basis, Rey Colino is a perfect addition to our 'Delayed with...' series.
The mix Colino made for us is a brilliant, feel-good energetic voyage that features tons of forthcoming releases. Technically immaculate with a great vibe all over, this mix is one of the best we heard this year. Hats off, Rey Colino!

The latest outing from Huinali Recordings 'Early Horizon' comes from UK-based producer Inhmost. 'Early Horizon' captures three seasons of early morning exposure to the surrounding natural environment. Experiencing every sunrise through this period in time revealed unseen forms in the landscape, new sensations, and a different perspective for each day, creating the ambiance for each piece of music on this album. "Footsteps" is a beautiful ambient track with tranquil atmospheres, naturally occurring beauty, and an embrace of stillness. Listening to "Footsteps" feels like walking through the forest after the rain during the early morning. A magnificent 'Early Horizon' LP is coming out on April 16 via Huinali Recordings.

In the past few years, deep atmospheric techno has been going through a mini Renaissance with many young, talented producers and record labels redefining the genre and pushing boundaries into uncharted territories. The multi-disciplinary artist based in Munich, Lindsey Wang, aka Polygonia, has become known for her phenomenal sense of rhythm and use of organic acoustical elements reflected in forward-thinking Deep Techno, Downtempo and Ambient surrounded by a mystic atmosphere. She's been releasing music on record labels like Lowless and IO Records, which she co-runs with Dycide and MTRL.
The mix Polygonia made for us is full of energetic mind-bending Deep Techno that constantly moves like a living matter and reshapes into something new. The pace of the mix is incredible, potentially being your ideal running partner.
We're thrilled to have an artist like Polygonia on board, and we are looking forward to seeing what new she's preparing in the months and years to come.

Back again with an auditory ear sermon is Conoley Ospovat and today’s Delayed premiere, ‘The Nearness of Divinity’. Not one to rest on his laurels after releasing a stellar LP, which you can read a review of here, Ospovat’s next venture is a four-tracker off his own label, Continental Drift Records. Titled, ‘So Thankful’ is exactly that, an auditory hug for the senses, and ‘The Nearness of Divinity’ brings a smile to the face. Full-bodied kicks, and a winding bassline whirl through to some simple, yet endearing melodic notes. Almost a perfect Springtime match if you will, feelings of hope and longing for those warm coming months.
The Nearness of Divinity and in turn, So Thankful should be out on the 13th of April.

Amsterdam-based collective and imprint De Lichting releases the first solo EP from one of its members, Kaap. Known for his passion for analog gear and a signature dubby take on House and Techno, Kaap delivers three original cuts highlighting his masterclass in the studio.
'Dead On Arrival' is a multi-dimensional and skillfully executed trip that, for ten minutes, slowly unfolds each element and builds a rolling tour de force that blurs the lines between Micro House and Dub Techno. At first, every layer seems repetitive, but if you carefully listen to them, you'll hear a whole micro-universe happening in the background tweaked just enough never to get dull. The main driver of the track is a rumbling bassline. However the real magic happens in the background of cosmic and drone pads that build a foundation for distant bell melody, which creates an atmosphere of well known, and here at Delayed beloved, German Micro House (think labels like Dial, Smallville, Giegling, Kann). We are well familiar with Kaap's brilliance in the studio, and this EP proves that this incredibly talented artist has a lot to give in the coming years.

Dycide is certainly no stranger to Delayed and has been consistently "climbing" our internal charts and winning our ears with his moody deep productions. What often sets his productions apart is the ability to cohesively shift dynamics, tone, the mood within a track: a rarity among electronic producers. The current track 'Invocation' which is a collaboration with MTRL is no exception: it starts ambient; goes deeper; grows and reverberates; flirts with glitch and blips; swells and envelopes; steps into the darkness then back into the light; ebbs; flows; attacks; recedes, and, finally, slowly and gently dissolves into silence. All in the space of a mere 8 minutes!
'Invocation' is part of 'Sphere Volume 2' compilation set to be released on April 10th via Munich-based IO Records.

Barcelona-based Diffuse Reality Records continue a streak of sublime releases with Midnight Nectar EP produced by Dominik Knap, aka Kletis. The album of five original tracks and two remixes is an ode to the rainy atmosphere surrounded by the foggy forest town of Liberec on the northern borders of the Czech Sudetenland. Kletis wrote this EP as a reflection on personal feelings from 2014 when he moved to the city, while UK dubstep’s original sound highly influenced his music production.
Known for a clever crossing between dubstep/halftime, techno, and drum N bass, in “Sunday Memories,” Kletis creates an epitome to a day-after mood. He is nicely drawing out a soothing essence of the core me-time: finding comfort in undisturbed melancholy; homebound calmness in a warming mixture of a peaceful rhythmic progression and unrushed sub-level harmonic beats; a subtle aftertaste of a strangely reassuring touch of loneliness.

Following Eduardo De La Calle's release in January, which was well suited for dark dancefloors, Mexico City-based imprint Discos Movimiento shifts gears with EP 'E.the.re.al' by young talented producer Santiago Valdés who delivers two cuts ideally suited for summertime and rooftop parties. In "My Own Devices," Santiago brings an ethereal atmosphere, the leitmotif of the release, to its zenith with a melancholic electronic piano melody and seductive vocals by Shell. Wooden percussions and raindrops serve as undercurrents that give that special touch to this lovely track.

The mainstay from the French underground music scene, Nems B is not a stranger here at Delayed. He’s one of the masterminds behind a very well-curated podcast series, Phonons which we love listening to. With releases on labels like Oslated and On Board Music, Nems-B has been building a reputation as a talented producer who should be on everyone’s radar. Behind the decks, Nems-B puts the accent on storytelling and usually operates within deeper shades of House and Techno. In this hour-long mix, Nems-B brings back all the feels of those late after-hours we all long for. The mix is super smooth with a brilliant track selection. We’re looking forward to hearing more from Nems-B in the future.

After phenomenal debut LP 'Indirect Image' on Danza Nativa just a few weeks ago, a French prodigy Olorun is back with another great release, “WHS02” EP, this time on Aachen-based imprint Whispering Signals. The release features three originals accompanied by a hypnotic remix of Aroüagues by label boss Daniel[i], our premiere for today.
Daniel[i]'s Amalgam of Aroüagues is a slow spellbinding trip that creates a mysterious atmosphere. Its distant chants, tribal percussions, and cosmic synths generate a feeling of discovering an extraterrestrial tribe in the middle of a rain forest having their ritual and communicating with their temple somewhere in distant outer space. Daniel[i]'s Amalgam is an ideal track for warm-up sets in dark basements ahead of long techno marathons.
“WHS02” EP is set for release on April 1st via Whispering Signals.

Once again — the genius Italian duo is back on Delayed, this time with a premiere from the fifth release on their eponymous label. Orion have been consistently defying boundaries within house and dub techno, and this EP is no different. Dear Blue, the A2 track, is a bright, house-y slow-burner. Starting out with a kick drum with airy pads above it, before a gleaming melody enters and lightens the track’s mood even more. The sample makes the track quite trippy and nostalgic, and the percussion gives it a dance-y feel, making the track all in all perfect for dance floors — whether during a warmup set or a peak time set. Due to COVID-19, the “Cinque” EP’s release date is yet to be determined, but hopefully, it will be out sometime within the next month.

On Board Music kicks off 2021 with Point C, the third in a series of Various Artist 12-inches. It continues the label's exploration of the heady atmospheres between techno, dub, and ambient, where the boundaries between the dancefloor and headphone introspection are blurred. The five-tracker 'Point C' sees the return of Hiver, Sylve, and Hironori Takahashi to the label and debuts of Foreign Material and Alan Backdrop.
Sylve's "Cloudless Raindrops" is a dreamy, feel-good House track that comes out at the perfect time with first spring blooms. Its four to the floor groove layered with shakers and raindrop field recordings set an ideal foundation for hazy pads that move like ebb and flow, allowing filtered piano and arpeggiated wooden perc to shine through like first sun rays after Spring showers.
Point C is coming out on March 22 via On Board Music.

Perfectly suited for getting out of winter slumber, “In Praise of The Plant” LP is another gem produced by Brussels-based multi-talented Clément Davout, aka Adhémar. Releasing on Barcelona’s Diffuse Reality Records, the LP features seven original tracks and three remixes from Simone Bauer and Toki Fuko. Presently deep and subtly detailed, the “In Praise of The Plant” is magically breaching the gap between abstract and real by permeating the biomimicry into its sonic canvas. We are delighted to premiere the “Radial Symmetry” - one of those tracks with a mighty potential to smoothly carry the groove through the long night by working in unison with the leading muscular beat blended with percussive organics. Tender and confident, it's gradually diverging from an invisible center to steadily branching towards some hazy and oozy nightfall.

If you follow our channel, you are familiar with the man behind Mirror Tapes Recordings and Analogue Attic affiliate, Naarm/Melbourne-based Adam McCoy better known as Citizen Maze. We've been huge fans of McCoy's work both in the studio and behind the decks, which is equally impressive, full of ever-evolving textures and soundscapes. McCoy has found an ideal balance in his style where ambient sounds work in perfect symbioses with dancefloor-oriented percussive grooves, creating a dreamy atmosphere that fits a wide array of settings. The mix Citizen Maze made for us is a splendid journey with complex seamless rhythms layered with magnificent melodies and intricate soundscapes. The level of detail in this mix is simply astonishing.

After a year and a half hiatus, the Amsterdam-based Gal Tsadok-Hai is returning to his Moon Mood Records imprint with 'The Realm Of Wandarg' EP. 'The Realm Of Wandarg' is the third EP from Gal on Moon Mood, with which he further explores different shades of Leftfield and Techno.
The closing track of the EP and our premiere of today, 'Sezle Molve' is a dark, warm excursion that continually moves and morphs itself into something new with each pulse of its sub-bass and each hit of filtered synth stab that are main drivers of the track. Layered with noise hi-hats, echoed claps, and broken warm punchy kick drum, 'Sezle Molve' never reaches a dull moment and leaves the invitation for another journey by Gal Tsadok-Hai on Moon Mood Records, that we hope is coming soon.
'The Realm Of Wandarg' EP is coming out on March 15th via Moon Mood Records.

Often compared to a living, breathing thing, a proper club night ebbs and flows as people dance the night away. The peaks, the lulls, all powered by a pulsing, rhythmic beat. Steady, ever so steady. Simone Bauer’s ‘Aurea’ evokes those same emotions and feelings of an evolving night from the depths of the beginning to a soaring finish. A journey if you will. From the thump of the first heart-like beat, the ethereal pads bring in an introspective touch and act as a fine mist over the staccato of shakers and other percussive elements.
Aurea will let out into the world on March 15th, via the French imprint, Accents Records. Joined alongside by a litany of other amazing producers, this will mark the fifth VA compilation the label has put together.

Sharing a name with an interstellar object is no small feat but today’s premiere by Aspetuck, ‘Oumuamua’ provides a bit less international intrigue and a bit more groove while being very club-friendly. Coming right out the gate, Oumuamua establishes a percussion-led atmosphere as the drum machines are in full effect, followed by the sweeping pads that we all know and love at Delayed. Reminiscent of days or universes gone past.
Oumuamua is a part of 'Distant Messanger' EP scheduled for release on March 15th via A Friend in Need.

After his debut EP, 'Angry Gods' in 2020, the mysterious Dutchman currently residing in Berlin returns to his Sun Genam moniker and delivers a powerful four-tracker, titled 'Aexion' on Something Happening Somewhere. SoHaSo is a familiar place for Sun Genam, who released on the Amsterdam based label in the past under a different moniker. With 'Aexion,' the Dutchman focuses more on the mind and takes an inward journey. 'Sensation Green,' the closing track of the EP and our premiere for today, is a proper dance floor energizer. Its broken beat layered with drone pads and magical cosmic synths creates a 'calm before the storm' atmosphere, which bursts with energy when sudden bass stabs hit like thunder. The stabs are the most prominent part of the track, and with their 'up and down the scale rhythm, they create very distinct and vibrant energy that you'll remember the next day after hearing this in the club.
'Aexion' EP is coming out on March 5th via Something Happening Somewhere

Brooklyn-based electronic producer Christina Giannone. Found via a Bandcamp deep dive into the depths of drone, her album, ‘The Portal’ off the Spanish-based imprint Faint, was an instant hook into her unique and incredibly nuanced style of production. With this in mind, we’re happy to premiere her Sunday morning vision that provides such a fantastic way to ease into the day.

His Master's Voice is one of those artists that is hard to associate with a specific genre in electronic music. Instead, he is recognized as an artist whose style is continuously morphing and pushing boundaries of electronic music into uncharted territories both in the studio and behind the decks. In the past few years, we've seen a constant rise of this Hannover-based artist. From his debut release on Schleifen and remarkable contribution to KANN's Banana Split release, to mind-bending Delsin debut EP and his very first LP 'Log: a Canis Majoris' on Paul Rich's KCZMRK, His Master's Voice reminds us that the electronic music universe is infinite and that one can still make music that sounds fresh and interesting. His close friendship with VRIL, with whom he often shares countless studio hours, has brought us some fantastic collaborations in the past. Two remixes on Delsin were like an introduction to the Adderall project that His Master's Voice and VRIL started just a few weeks ago with an incredible ode to 90's IDM, the track - 'Cryosleep,' which we had the pleasure of premiering.
The mix His Master's Voice prepared for us is an intricate journey full of twists and turns through Jungle, Leftfield, Techno, IDM, and Electronica. This is one of those mixes that you'll go back to over and over again, just to hear something new that you may miss the last time you listened to it.

Beirut-based record label System Revival is back with yet another superb charity compilation.

Our premiere for today is a beautiful drone ambient called 'Immerse' by Berlin-based Blazej Malinowski. Blazej's 'less is more' approach creates peaceful oscillations that come to rest on the ears like a comforting blanket. Its dark ambient tones are paired with drone undercurrents for a pleasant journey into which the listener can drift freely and get lost into the depths of a calm midnight ocean.

Straight from Lyon via Jeju Island in South Korea, Sanjib presents his latest album, 'Lost Continent,' set to be released on Huinali Recordings on February 26th. Sanjib found an ideal home in Huinali for this beautifully atmospheric story full of magical elements that depict a cosmic journey. Eight-tracker 'Lost Continent' sounds like a soundtrack for a recent rover expedition to Mars. It's dark, mysterious, yet so inviting, smooth, and spacey. 'Evening Walking,' our premiere for today, is an uncanny voyage through outer space which instantly indulges the listener with its eerie, cosmic pads, punchy kick drum, and crisp well defined high hats. The journey gets a new twist when a wobbly spacey synth melody fades in during the breakdown and brings in the feeling of the unknown, something mysterious yet welcoming. Like a hope for a better tomorrow somewhere far away.

Dub abounds in today’s Delayed premiere, with the mysterious Special Zip behind the force that is ‘Ufologist’. The sci-fi drenched tune brings visions of space and times of the far future into the forefront of the listener's minds. Visions that seem to ebb and flow along with the groovy bassline and organ leads. As each moment passes, the drive of the track thrusts the listener farther into this surreal mental scene, where closing your eyes and losing yourself may be the best solution.
Ufologist, and in turn the rest of Special Zips’ Minimal Antagonist release will be out on the 25th of February, on Dutch label spclnch.

Electronic tracks typically channel a specific mood or vibe. They make us feel things…some caress with their warmth; some pound us with their anger and despair; some push us into anxiety; some make us dance and some hypnotize us. It is a select few tracks that manage to be emotive and yet remain ambiguous and mysterious. Dycide's Coincidence is such a track. It starts sparse, dark and hypnotic, with the typical echo-y bassline and plenty of percussive elements…But as soon as your musical eyes get used to the darkness, a floaty melancholic piano line floats in…oh, a touch of melancholy here…And, suddenly, almost happy, floaty pads take over…right along with the same dark and hypnotic bassline and piano that's no longer wallowing its melancholy…If I didn’t know it was the same track, I'd guess it's a skillful DJ mixing several different ideas together..and yet it's one track that manages to glue such different sounds together and throw a nice kaleidoscopic blanket over the listener.

The latest release, 'Dawn Drops' EP from Berlin-based imprint Jazz-o-Tech, comes as a collaboration between two Finnish artists Aki Himanen and Aleksi Kinnunen. Both Himanen and Kinnunen are jazz musicians and techno producers, so this project found a perfect home in Jazz-o-Tech. Jazz-o-Tech is a label that draws on the rich heritage of two of the most visionary and experimental genres in music: jazz and techno. Taking inspiration from the freeform creative nature of those two musical worlds, artists on the label mix tradition with modernity, improvisation with experimentation, and create a new sound known as techno-jazz.
Two originals on the release are accompanied by dark, driving remixes from PEG and Polygonia. Polygonia's remix of 'Dawn Drops' brings rumbling groove, haunting mysticism of elusive pads, and trippy floating trumpet, which create an incredibly calming atmosphere that will do wonders on dance floors during after hours.

If you didn’t know about Lola Haro, you will definitely remember her after this mix and keep an eye on her. She only appeared in the scene around 2018 but won hearts and dancefloors since then - through becoming a resident at the charming Paradise City Festival as well as nailing her first Boiler Room in 2019. Her sets and mixes have an eclectic, easy flow built by carefully selected tracks that seem totally trend agnostic. There are good vibes, there is melancholy, there are highs and lows knitted together effortlessly leaving you not only once asking for the track id. There is something very bright, easy around her and her DJing that will hopefully come to shine even more in the future.

Guido Camino, AKA Forest on Stasys, has already started 2021 strong after releasing his Ancestral Lineage EP on Lowless Music at the end of January. The Argentinian artist is about to release another four-track batch on the 19th of February, this time on the Czech imprint Harmony Rec. The release features two original tracks, and two remixes, one by Shoal, and one by Alfred Czital.
Today Delayed is happy to premiere Ofrenda - the A2 track. The Danza Nativa owner starts out the tribal track with a massive kick, a playful bassline, and a celestial synth pad. Tension builds as the track progresses, eventually segueing into a beautiful breakdown before the track reignites and goes back into full blast. This one will surely be the highlight moment of many parties when the time comes.

Danza Nativa, a Buenos Aires-based label, continues a phenomenal streak of releases with the debut album from young French producer Olorun. 'Indirect Image' sees Olorun drawing inspiration from his trip to South America, using exciting field recordings from the jungle, which, paired with tribal rhythms, create a wonderful atmosphere that is both driving and calming. 'Iridescence,' our premiere for today, is a beautifully crafted journey with subtle, ethereal pads that immaculately blend with field recordings, gentle percussions, and pulsating sub-bass. Imagine, 7 am, at party in the middle of the jungle, the Sun is up, you have the biggest smile on your face with your arms in the air, and this track is wrapping up what was the party to remember forever. I can totally see it.
'Indirect Image' LP and in turn 'Iridescence' are being released on February 15 via Danza Nativa.

As release notes for the entire compilation starkly state in the beginning, “these are strange times and it looks like the whole world is going crazy”. Indeed! And my mind, when faced with fear, anxiety and uncertainty about the future, quickly rushes to my happy place. My happy place is a summer festival…thousands of people dancing, hugging, frantically waving their glow sticks, sucking on a pacifier and thrashing about in their ridiculously wide pants. Ok, ok… my happy place is a 90’s rave..guilty as charged! But have you ever danced to Underworld on a warm summer night? If you want to know that feels, you don’t have to dig for that Underworld CD. Just cue Vril and His Master’s Voice’s “Cryosleep”. 30 seconds into that track and you’ll think Bill Clinton is still in office and those raver pants are a thing of beauty. That track is a time machine! We have all the raver era boxes checked: breakbeat, happy heavy synth, perfect drive, and even Underworld-like spoken word are bellowing in the background. If you are old enough to remember, you WILL do a happy dance; if you have the misfortune of being too young, slip the track to your grandpa and watch him start working his cane like a glow stick.
‘Cryosleep’ is a part of ‘Solidarity Is a Weapon’, the 19-track charity compilation set to be released via Turnland on February 5th. All proceedings will go to Rote Hilfe E.V organization. So who is “Rote Hilfe E.V.” and why does the money made with this compilation go to them? This organization puts the main focus on the financial and legal support of left activists who face repression in Germany and helps antifascists who are searching for political asylum in Germany.

Paris-based DJ crew and party provider HORS-SOL launched Outrebleu early 2020: a side project aimed at pushing ambient, IDM, experimental and deep techno music to the forefront of the Parisian scene, with multidisciplinary events and experiences. Through this approach, the collective wishes to offer something different, with an emotional, sensitive and introspective approach. Through this mix, the artists behind HORS-SOL seek to translate the emotions of a post-festive Sunday: those of a foggy morning awakening, where the fuzzy memories of a night of excess, joy and dance intertwine. Those of a day of wandering, where the tired body and mind are the open doors to changing moods, introspection and contemplation.

Today we are premiering a way out from the winter melancholy offered by a German producer and Super Tuff affiliate Tilman in his signature jazzy house spin onto Vaughan’s original “If I’d Been More Smart.” Coming on a two-track single, Tilman’s remix is a dancefloor-friendly injection of the summery glee and cheering warmth, serving an ideal remedy for the dreadful and unsettling winter. The Fine label head adds a warm tape drift to the piano sample and lays it atop a chunky, MPC-driven house groove, effortlessly creating an irresistibly friendly and careless vibe.
M. Vaughan “If I'd Been More Smart” (Tilman Remix) is out on January 22. on Super Tuff Records

After a turbulent and challenging year that is slowly going behind us, we've decided to close our Track Premiere saga for 2020 with this beautifully crafted sonic excursion named 'Spatium Vacua' by Kevin Paul Cahay.
The French artist created a warm and inviting quiescence of time as lush vintage pads carry melancholic melodies like slow, iridescent waves on a moonlight after the storm. Somewhere in the middle of this sonic excursion, clockwork-like percussions slowly fade in and remind us that even though everything looks still and feels numb, it is temporary and shall pass. All the bad things that we faced in the past several months will be behind us, and we'll dance and laugh all together again very soon.
'Spatium Vacua' is a part of 'Ruina Sequenti' EP scheduled for release on December 25th via French imprint music_is.

This Sunday morning, we’re happy to welcome onboard Maxwell Reid a.k.a Max In The World. The New York-based curator is head of the Bliss Point label, mix series and in another time, party. Aside from mixing, Max’s productions have appeared as well on Delayed through his hauntingly beautiful ‘Drums of the East River’ release.
Introductions aside, let the mix soundtrack your day, and with it, a note from Max himself…
Sundays have a particular quality for me. Like most people, I try to take time to relax with my wife and cat. This time is very important to my mental health. However, as someone who works a job all week, I also feel a sense of urgency in this free time - I usually feel a desire to spend some of my Sunday on my personal projects. So my Sundays are typically full of pleasant, tranquil moments, punctuated by a certain industriousness as I turn my attention to creative endeavors. I’ve tried to reflect this dynamic in my “Sundays are for…” mix.

Sundays are for…salutations. Today, we’re happy to be debuting a new facet to the ambient and downtempo side of Delayed by welcoming in new friends and old to take the proverbial mixing helm. Each featured mix will embody that Sunday’s vibe, of relaxation and more.
Starting off the series is Paris-based, Spanish DJ and producer, Early Motions who’s journey through the haze of Sunday hits all the right spots. Equal parts introspective, upbeat and down, and with a few melodic elements. As well as in his words a mix for, “staying at home, looking at small details like light reflections, and looking through the window”.

Reflection. Moments lost in yourself that bring almost a zen-like feel. As the winter months drag on, this seems to happen more and more often as people withdraw from the cold, from the elements… hibernating until the summer comes again.

Sundays are for… Many things. Often times for after parties, often times for no parties. Sundays can be the icing on the cake of a long weekend, and other times the trough before the massive wave called Monday that rolls over you. In either scenario there is a wealth of music awaiting your minds and ears to make your Sundays better. As with Delayed and our love of curation, we’d like to extend our programming and expertise into another realm, dedicated to that of downtempo, electronica, ambient and everything in between. The caveat? Only quality not quantity, and don’t hold us to genre.

The London based duo Yard One are Jordan Bruce and Larry Jones. Alongside Richard Fletcher, this super talented duo runs two very cool labels https://soundcloud.com/tact-recordings and its sub-label, vinyl only - Tactics. The first release of Tactics Recordings - Tactics vol.2 introduced us to Yard One, and we immediately fell in love with what they do. Their approach to minimal and dub techno is unique and brings a breath of fresh air in a genre that has been around since 90’s and keeps evolving with each new talented artist that brings something new to it. Yard One made this exclusive mix for Fiction Lab and we can’t get enough of it. It’s minimal/dub techno at its finest. The mix slowly and patiently unfolds into a true techno escapade. Essential listening for all minimal/dub techno lovers. We are looking forward hearing new stuff from Yard One, and until then enjoy this fabulous mix.

Having just released his debut album, Patlac is a name you should expect to hear more of. The Hamburg-based DJ, is also an incredibly talented producer and acclaimed remixer who creates nothing but stunningly beautiful soundscapes that we just can’t get enough of. An official resident of the famous Berlin Watergate nightclub since 2015, Patlac has been on our radar for some time now. His set at last year’s Oasis Festival in Marrakech alongside his childhood friend Matthias Meyer was a definite highlight of the boutique event as was his performance at The Brooklyn Mirage in New York this past September.
With his sensitive approach to music production and creating special dance floor moments, we really couldn’t think of a better artist to launch our new Antidote series with this Saturday March 24. Lucky for us he also prepared an excellent exclusive mix to get us in the party groove ahead of his show this weekend.
