Adrenaline

PREMIERE: DRAGAN ZARANOFF - BLUE HOUR [POSSE UP]

The new bass-centric record label “Low End Therapy is the brainchild of French born, Berlin based DJ, producer and sound engineer Monibi and German electronic musician Ultramax. Before launching as a label in 2025, Low End Therapy started off as Monibi’s radio format on refuge Worldwide. Repping all things bass, from breaks, to dubstep, grime, and anything loosely related to beat science and the hardcore continuum spectrum be it, 808 hip hop beats, d&b, all the way to experimental bass and ambient.

The opening track “Ride On” by Insomniast, Bristol native & former Vietnam resident, dives straight into percussive club-ready goodness. Insomniast’s music totally encapsulate the boundary free ethos of Low End Therapy: “Sometimes I’ll get hyped on too much coffee and write a 150 bpm speed garage or house tune, on other days I’ll make something even I can’t define. I enjoy this element of randomness.” 
2025 is Insomniast’s biggest year yet with various things forthcoming on Ommaya, Club Designs, Yuku, Raiders, and Raw Planet, as well as more on Posse Up!, Seafront, W133.

Delphic Iris Records Presents Insomniast — ‘First Light EP’

“Out on the field in a euphoric daze, just hanging on by a thread—
warm flashes, fleshly fading memories of rattling sound systems
the night before, and the laughter of mates chatting shit."

"Fucked Up twisted funkinesssss
GREAT WORK" 4/5 - Laurent Garnier

"Digging this" 5/5 - Yushh

"cool tracks" 5/5 - French II

Rooted in his Bristol upbringing and no doubt charged by the
city's ‘something in the water’ effect, Berlin-based Insomniast
distills the raw energy of the low-end underground into a hazy,
euphoric morning after on First Light EP—the fifth vision from
Delphic Iris Records.

Extending genre-twisting bass music motifs, he weaves lively
distinct 808 rhythms, rave-tinged vocal chops and stabs, and
bass grooves into a journey through night’s intensity and
daybreak’s hazy reflections.

At its peak, Chasing Streams and 1024 bang hard with a skewed
fusion of UK bass and playful ghetto tech rawness, both
punching through with chest-rattling energy.

As the night fades, First Light, Higher, and Live in Love summon
a more expressive, hazed-out euphoria, blending broken
hypnotic rhythms with warm house music sensibility—the sound
of a morning spent in the park, bluetooth speaker humming,
Lambrini flowing, mates chatting shit, and the echoes of the night
before still drifting in the background.


Limited Edition 7" Dub-plate contains tracks:
Chasing Streams (A Side), First Light (B Side) and
All tracks are available via digital download.

Bandcamp: https://w133records.bandcamp.com/album/unifying-theme
Release Date: June 6th, 2025
Info: After a couple of 4/4 releases, W133 finally returns to breakier, bassier territory — and presents its very first collaboration EP, entitled „Unifying Theme“. The two Berlin-based artists Prieste5s and Insomniast, who initially connected through the label and have both already blessed W133 with solo material, now team up and deliver something truly special. Their styles complement one another effortlessly, merging into a distinctive and interesting sound.
The EP kicks off with „Icons“ — a deep and heavy roller that blends pounding toms, fast-paced rhythms, and an eerie mystic energy. Things stay moody with „Last Things First“, where a rumbling bassline underpins distorted vocal chops that echo through the void.
„Surge“ continues in a similar spirit, upping the energy with crisp, high-frequency percs and swirling FX, before we flip to a slightly lighter note on „Tempest“. This one’s a bit more playful with multiple percussions, still driving but with a twinkle in its eye.
Closing out the EP is „This is not the End“, a slightly faster and certainly the most mischievous track of the release — high-pitched, water-meets-metal sounds and a juke-inspired rhythm make this one bounce with pure energy.
We sure hope the title of the last track isn’t lying, because we’re already excited for more output from this newly found duo.
As always, the release is complemented by a photograph by Philipp Roth. Out on 6.6.2025 via all digital platforms.

Blue Ringed Baby & Kamī - Endless Brainspill .𖥔 ݁ OUT NOW

Blue Ringed Baby and Kamī are a London-based producer/vocalist duo who are finding solace and inspiration through exploring sounds within jungle, shoegaze, ambient and trip-hop; experimenting and floating within these seemingly opposing genres to find their own divine voice, creating a fresh spin on these distinctively 90s/2000s UK sounds for a new generation .𖥔 ݁ 

Their debut single, ‘ᴇɴᴅʟᴇꜱꜱ ʙʀᴀɪɴꜱᴘɪʟʟ’ is a shimmering fragment taken from the duo’s forthcoming collaborative LP 'ꜰᴏʀᴇᴠᴇʀ ᴄʜᴇᴍɪᴄᴀʟꜱ', a conceptual project slated for release later in 2025 which finds mystic and ethereal glitches in a fragmenting, dystopian world. Featuring collaborations with pioneers of the sounds that birthed the duo’s sonic revelry, Placid Angles [aka John Beltran] and Love Spirals Downwards, as well as fellow innovators and heralders of the nu balearic age; Marijn S, bbsanii and Stone.

In an era of overstimulation and algorithmic noise, gems like Endless Brainspill offer a rare refuge; a space to drift, daydream and float forever.

With Applause V.A. Vol. 2, Matteo — founder and artistic director of the label — continues the curatorial work begun in 2023: “to capture a living and moving ecosystem,” at the intersection of local, diasporic, and international club scenes. This new compilation brings together a selection of emerging and established artists from Europe, Africa, and the diasporas, offering a sonic landscape that’s percussive, hybrid, and emotional. Artem, DJ Travella, Blck Mamba, Dariiofox, Lorkestra, Marge, and Hey Bony all showcase unique perspectives on contemporary club music — balancing raw intensity with rhythmic nuance.

Designed as much for DJ sets as for deeper listening, the compilation reflects Applause’s DNA: a curatorial and inclusive space, connecting underground communities, global aesthetics, and multifaceted identities. Among the standout moments, Leyka’s Beli—DJ and producer affiliated with Drama and Nuit Brune collectives—embodies that sense of freedom. Led by a baile funk- inspired vocal, the track fuses Bass Music, Jersey Club, and raw rhythms into a spontaneous, high-energy blend built for unrestrained movement on the dancefloor.
