The latest edition to the series is a mix I recorded a few weeks ago sat in a cosy yurt at 10AM on a sparkling sunny morning in North Wales. Thanks so much to Eddy from Neighbourhood Cotch for having me play on his stage at On-Kilter, a small boutique festival set in a beautiful green estate. 

This was the first ambient set I played in person post-lockdown, and it was magical to hear this music on a big soundsystem again, and to feel it drifting out over the hills and through the ancient oak trees. To me, this music is always best experienced in nature, especially in the summer, so I'm glad to have had the chance to situate it there. Hope you enjoy this nearly 2.5hour long drifty journey ☀️🌳🍄

I am super excited to present the next @deepmindmusic_ mix, a special edition crafted by Australia's @pjenne. A DJ with an intuitive ear, Pjenné's mixes have always made a deep impression on me, through her thoughtful track selection, immersive world-building and clear narrative arcs – and her mix for Deep Mind Music is no different 🤍

I experienced this mix as one fluid motion: through the course of an hour we billow outwards, and drift inwards, in pulsating undulations. As the rolling waves of circular rhythms, dub techno and fluttering wisps floated through me, I felt as if I had become one with a towering cumulonimbus, expanding and contracting as I drifted across a pristine sky ☁️🦋💠

Pjenné has managed to strike a subtle balance between quiet softness and infinite depth in this beautiful and evocative journey, taking us deep into the beyond. The mix ends with an ascension to a bright and delicate twinkling, like a sparkling sunset on the sea, and we're left feeling warm, pensive and peaceful 🔆🌥️🕊️

Some words from Pjenné about the mix: 

I was inspired by a sound I used to be particularly into during my formative years – I remember buying the Deepchord Silent World double LP at Spacehall in Berlin during my first overseas trip. It was long, long before I was a DJ, and I was too scared to play any records in-store, as I didn't really know how turntables worked, and had no idea how record stores functioned. Although I bagged that winner of a record (which I still own and play today a decade later) I also remember accidentally buying some sampling records that I had absolutely no use for... Can't say it was the most inviting place back then...

Anyway, although the mix was inspired by that sound, it ended up completely different during the process of putting it together. Of course, I had to weave in some form of uplifting resolve by the end.

I am really excited to share the next Deep Mind Music mix, made by my good friend Amphybian (fka Harry). Over the course of nearly two hours, Amphybian takes us on a wistful and mysterious journey, balancing density and effervescence in a slowly evolving and thoughtfully programmed narrative ☁️🕊️

The first half of the mix takes us up through thick clouds into flight above the earth, providing a vast sense of scale and a humbling perspective. I felt as if I was soaring through the stratosphere, at once both infinite and infinitesimal. As the mix unfolds, mossy carpets of drones and fluttering arpeggios carry us across a limitless expanse, thoughts and details slipping in and out of focus as we spiral inwards 🌀

In the second half of the mix, moments of joy give way to moments of sorrow, coiling into quiet eddies of emotion. The density of sounds slowly evaporate away into more subtle sonic touches and muted colours. I see a wet woodland after rainfall, a dust mote peeking through darkened branches, and the trickling of dewdrops on my skin.

As the mix concludes, and we gently ascend to wakefulness, I’m left with the blissful feeling of a misty sunrise after a darkened dawn. As the evenings grow dark, trees turn, and the air chills, this mix provides the perfect soundtrack for the seasonal shift to introspection 🌙🤍🍂

Some words from Amphybian about the mix:

A dream...

“…an optical image that had disappeared into his consciousness, been absorbed by memory..."

I am so grateful to share with you all today a very poignant and sacred entry in the Deep Mind Music series from Lou Drago. Lou has woven together a truly otherworldly psychedelic journey for the soul, a luminescent experience, a gently glowing hologram of emotion 💠

Lou Drago and I connected years ago when they asked me to make a mix for their TRANSIENCE series, which invites contributors to create a “temporary suspension of reality, where the listener can speculate on alternate futures free from all systems of oppression.” We found a synchronicity in the role ambient music has played in our lives, and how it opens portals to new imagined existences for us. Since then, I’ve had the joy of playing for Lou at infinity rug, the ambient-focussed event series they curate with Marum, where we have shared deep chats, silly giggles and shared philosophies (as well as ambient music ofc).

They have put a great deal of thought and care into this mix, which you can hear in the delicately programmed selections, the fluidity of the whole, and the full-being submersion into an emotional plane of existence. From the opening seconds of the mix, clarifying crystalline twinkles open the way, realigning our sense of being, and taking us into this subtle soundscape. This mix feels like a gently calming presence, like both a sigh, and a weight lifted from the shoulders.

As we sink into the mix, we evaporate into vaporous wisps of energy, as expansive washes of sound contrast with infinitesimal whirls and organic instrumentation. We are submerged into a panoramic dreamstate, morphing mystical landscapes expanding before us. Lou guides us through a misty forest teeming with life, droplets of water slipping off the end of intricate leaves around us.

In the final 30 minutes of the mix, I feel as if I am all the flickering stars in the night sky, as interplaying vibrational drones dissolve us into the depths. Lou then very gently lifts us from this state, the atoms of our being carefully reassembled, coming back to reality in a state of blissful harmony. I hope you find peace in this heart-opening trip 🤍🌌🤍

This release comes in the same week that I will be joining Lou as a guest of TRANSIENCE at WHOLE festival this weekend, where we will both be playing ambient sets in the early hours of Saturday. I am really looking forward to this occasion of continued sonic kinship between us, see you there if you are coming 💗

Lou Drago ~ Deep Mind Music Vol.28

Nocturnal Amphibian Symphony Pt1

For the eight installments of our podcast series, we are happy to present Sybil. Recorded last autumn in Japan, when the leaves were gradually changing colors and a mood of melancholy set in, this mix represents, to us, a sonic manifestation of the enduring beauty of Japan's seasonal change. 

It is a mix in which Sybil, ever gently, reverbs between deep layers of dub, beautifully warped sounds, and the occasional elegant beat, took those present across a musical palette as diverse as the colors of the Japanese autumn. Nearly a year later, with the onset of another autumn cycle, we think it is now the time to release this mix. Please sit back, find a good pair of speakers, and enjoy.

Recording of Nathalia's set at les Chaos Ambiants 2024

Naturally active person, in 2014, Nathalia founded Experiment Intrinsic – a hidden art dimension organically blended with the visual and musical imagination. A pivotal change, in which she pursued a path of deeper self inquiry and progression of sound, shifted her from the dance-floor oriented music and into ambient soundscapes. Her influences drew increasingly from experimental electronic, as well as traditional and spiritual genres. The following years were dedicated as developing the project into a dynamic and constantly evolving audio-visual platform.

[Les Chaos Ambiants]

The Pauza association presents Les Chaos Ambiants, a festival dedicated to the encounter between electronic music, the visual arts and the rich heritage of Burgundy-Franche-Comté.

This event is designed on a small scale to make it as comfortable as possible to listen, meet and move around, with a single stage to promote emerging and established artists, a natural setting conducive to the discovery of musical works and artistic installations, and an eco-responsible approach to limit its environmental impact.

The project has several objectives : to promote the European and international artistic scene, to stimulate and strengthen the cultural and creative network across the département and the region ; to help promote and showcase the natural and cultural heritage of Burgundy-Franche-Comté ; to support local produce and the local economy.

Nathalia [Les Chaos Ambiants]

I first heard Binomi, the Catalan duo of Joan Gila and Jordi Aparicio, almost two years ago at the Mostra festival. Their set left a lasting impression on me. They delivered a masterfully curated ambient and experimental DJ set, all on vinyl. Usually, I don’t focus too much on the medium, but there’s something about spinning experimental music on vinyl that takes an extraordinary level of dedication and artistry. It’s like watching a film come to life in real-time.

Over the years, I’ve been fortunate enough to get to know Joan and Jordi beyond their music. I’m proud to call them friends. We’ve spent countless hours together on the dancefloor, talking about everything and nothing, always learning more about their endless vinyl hunts. Their passion for digging through crates is something I’ll never stop admiring. Both are integral to the Mostra crew and resident DJs for Mostradio (alongside Javi).

As they prepare for the next season of their radio residency, Binomi has graciously shared their recording from Simbiosis Festival in Seville - an event we had the pleasure of collaborating on last year. This set was their opening performance, and here at Delayed, we have a special affection for opening sets. They’re a unique challenge and demand a different kind of energy. True to form, this one is different in the best way.

The first half of their set is bold and thought-provoking yet mellow and inviting, with an experimental ambient flow that feels unfamiliar and soothing. Gradually, it shifts gears, easing into deep, dubby, low-slung techno, just in time to welcome the first dancers with open arms and warm rhythms. Joan and Jordi have crafted something that isn’t just memorable; it’s the kind of set you’ll want to revisit often, and we’re pretty sure it’ll find its way into your regular rotation.

It’s a true privilege to feature these two talented artists and all-around wonderful humans in our next edition of “Delayed with…”.
So, press play, and let this beautiful journey, recorded under the Andalusian sun, carry you away. 



This is what Binomi said about the set:
" When Doctrina Natura and Halos invited us to play at Simbiosis, they expressed their desire for us to create a sort of turning point, symbolizing the start of a new day. That’s when we decided to craft this set with a shared, overarching goal: to generate a sense of relaxation or a calm atmosphere. We divided it into two distinct parts: the first hour being ambient with experimental elements, atmospheric, tranquil, and delicate, while the second part featured downtempo beats, still maintaining that overall goal, but allowing space for the day to restart with more rhythmic sets to follow. This is the result of a morning beginning in a hidden place in Andalusia - Simbiosis, from which we have fantastic memories. We hope you enjoy it."
