DJ SIDEWAYS - B2B WEEK - MYSTIC SUN

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.

PREMIERE: Caldera and queniv - Rhymo [DANS]

"In a quiet corner of a small Japanese town, She drifts to sleep under soft neon lights. When she wakes, the clouds are floating gracefully around the full moon, and time itself seems paused.
She steps outside and walks through  alleys bathed in warm lantern glow. Around her, reality seems to fold gently , blending dimensions in soft, fluid patterns. The city feels  familiar but strangely distant, as if she’s moving between layers of a dream.
As dawn breaks, birds hang motionless in the sky. She slowly falls into sleep as the first light touches the horizon.
She awakens again,back at her desk. The city is alive once more, and time flows forward. Later, as she walks through the waking streets, an old man steps  out of the shadows — an old man with eyes that seem to know a composition shaped by time itself. He stops, smiles, and says:
“Isn’t it inspiring when clouds become clocks?”

This mix is a reinterpretation of György Ligeti’s conceptual composition All Clouds Are Clocks, translated into a personal narrative that moves through ambient atmospheres, classical elements, and drum&bass rhythm.

Selection: Teatre & Undveld, Third Eye, Matty Bye, Modeo, Law, Illuvia, Human Space Machine, Ghost Warrior, Acronym, Ascalypso , Azami

Azami (@azami-851910486) is a layered art project of Anna Huszák, a Hungarian-born artist now based in Barcelona. Her work blends deep ambient, hypnotic techno, and experimental electronics combined with live flute. Her compositions seek to create a subtle dialogue between immersive atmospheres and layered emotions. Her new label, "Circling on the Horizon" (@circlingonthehorizon), presents its first release and serves as a platform for music exploring synesthetic and conceptual storytelling, crafting imagined landscapes and narrative soundscapes that offer a gentle escape from everyday reality.

KILN https://soundcloud.com/kiln return with an opulent new display of hue and swing on Lemon Borealis, a sumptuous gallery of dazzling motifs that display a finely hewn concoction of visual tones and vital pulse.

Across its 12 cuts, this collection utilizes a fresh process of condensing immersive sprawl into compact, punchy and colorful sound. Using aspects of live performance, beatmaking and waveform sculpting, the troika of Kevin Hayes, Kirk Marrison and Clark Rehberg III create evocative and invigorating dioramas, continuing to surprise and enchant listeners after over thirty years into their collaboration.

Deep in waves of Hi-meets-Lo Fi, KILN delivers a panchromatic daymark arranged to biochemically align and stimulate your personal syntax, forging a tapestry of sonic reveries ranging from the aquarium-on-fire radiance of DrnkGrlfrnd, a garden groove of field-recorded percussion in Maplefunk Diptych, to the sizzling guit-noise whiteout of Deacon Rayhand.

Their eighth album, and first for A Strangely Isolated Place, on Lemon Borealis, KILN expands upon the long-explored themes of mosaic texture, subtle melancholy, eroded consonance, and vivid cadence to reveal yet another aperture to their unique magnetic universe.

Lemon Borealis will be available on 12” Transparent Yellow/Ochre Smoke vinyl and digital on July 18th. Lacquer cut by Andreas Lupo Lubich, and featuring artwork by KILN.

Feeling incredibly proud to share this new chapter in our Podcast Series, a profound and powerful mix from the dearest Lou Drago, an artist and human we deeply admire 🤍

Lou is the host of one of our favourite ambient shows @transience-archive which airs monthly on Berlin’s Cashmere Radio to provide listener with a much needed relief from anxiety and together with marum they host sonic-seances under the name @infinity-rug 🫧

Lou believes in the transformative potential of sound and the importance of deep listening. Whether that is listening to each other, our needs or to the sounds around us. In their sets they often explore the sonic landscapes of the in-between, where the listeners perspective dictates the experience, yet holds them in a warm embrace to invite a deep dialogue with the listening body-mind.

✨ In Lou's words ✨

like many of us, my heart has been red with grief-rage witnessing the ever-escalating genocide in Gaza. this mix starts with an invocation for the liberation of the Palestinian people, a struggle that omits none of us if we wish to be truly free. 

the slowly evolving sound journey takes us through several realms and phases of introspection, ghosts of the past lingering in melodies they never heard. sonic energies condensing and expanding, offering spaciousness for contemplation and being with whatever arises.

meandering through earthly realms, through the riparian zone, swamps, and forests we meet with mournful spirits in her gut, casting our attention on the multiplicities of loss we are facing. yet in the shade there are angels, who remind us that we have been doing this for many, many lifetimes. ‘keep on’ they seem to whisper. 

eventually we arrive to the sunset inside, where the Grand River’s winds meet the horizon, guiding our gaze upward toward the night sky where the mysteries of the celestial bodies radiate, Lyra’s visions casting an empowerment spell for all those who listen. 

may we each grow ever surer of our paths, finding creative and yet unimaginable ways to continue our collective struggle for the liberation of all sentient entities, until we are all free.

love, 

lou drago

Sebby Kowal - Always Together

Conversion, the second opus from German electronic duo Guentner + Spieth, dives deep into their shared musical roots to reinterpret them through a contemporary, nuanced lens. The result is a body of work that blends ambient expansiveness with dub-inspired detail - layered soundscapes that balance openness with structure. Unbound by conventional formats, the album moves fluidly between rhythmic depth and atmospheric stillness. Bass drums appear alongside quiet passages, carried by floating pads, carefully placed accents, and a sense of space that feels both introspective and organic. Conversion is both a tribute to shared origins and a statement of artistic evolution.

Created in a relaxed, intimate atmosphere, Conversion reflects formative influences of early ambient, dub, and deep techno releases while combining them with the artists characteristic signatures. Both made their debut on the legendary Cologne label Kompakt in the early 2000s and were part of Wolfgang Voigt's trend-setting Pop Ambient series. They have since independently developed distinctive positions within electronic music: Guentner with his cinematic-atmospheric albums such as Theia and Onda on the label A Strangely Isolated Place. While Spieth heads the Affin label with its deep, hypnotic sound aesthetic, he releases a steady stream of his own works such as Irradiance, or the more recent Retrace.

Conversion is less retrospective and more a continuation of a finely tuned dialog that invites introspection with its minimalist compositions, organic hues, and cavernous depth. Each track on this "after-hours" album unfolds with deliberate subtlety, drawing the listener into an immersive experience where sound becomes both space and emotion. Between structure and expanse, density and silence, a work of quiet intensity unfolds that is club-compatible.
