Here we are, wrapping up 2024 with one last post to celebrate the mixes that soundtracked our December. It's become a little tradition for us to pull together a list that fits different moods and moments, and this month's picks feel extra special.
If you're looking for something gentle to accompany a quiet moment, Toxido Mask, Mjulev, and SAL have you covered. Planning a road trip? Forma Oscura, F-on, and Command D offer deep, dubby vibes to keep you company. For an energizing boost—say, on your next run—Atom™ & Tobias deliver a live set that will lift your spirits. Vinna Våldyr absolutely stole the show this month with a mix that'll whisk you to the magic of Andalusia and the Simbiosis Festival. And for those ready to lose themselves in some serious grooves, Agonis and Andrea's live sets from Monument and Mutek are pure brilliance.
Thank you for being part of our musical journey this year. Here’s to more discoveries and incredible sounds in 2025!
Happy New Year!
With love,
Team Delayed

Favorite Mixes From December 2024

dreamy mornings of dubby and minimalist sounds gathered around the soundsystem in the glade, hidden deep in the valley. A heartfelt thanks to @melifera_records for the trust and freedom they gave us with this carte blanche.

at dawn on Sunday, Alfonso treated us to 4 hours of music, mingling dub techno and minimal, all slowed down and jammed on vinyl.

"When I arrived at the stage, the sun hadn't risen yet. Mine was the first performance on @klapenunsen stage, and the music from the other stage was still playing in the background. It was a cold morning, and I thought there wouldn't be many people at the beginning, but It was a pleasant surprise when, after the main stage last performance ended, a large crowd gathered and filled the stage even before my music started. 

I performed a minimal dubby techno set, playing both current tracks and classics of the genre. Although I didn’t feel entirely comfortable in the beginning of the set, when I saw people dancing with smiles on their faces, it all made sense. It was a very special moment, and later, when the set ended, it was incredible to have people coming up to talk to me, excited about the performance. It was beautiful preparing a set like this and seeing how the crowd responded to the vibe while the sun rose in that wonderful landscape."

"As dusk gives way to night, the downtempo soundscapes draw you in. You've taken the bait, slipping into a spiral, a tunnel you won’t want to leave. You’ve crossed the event horizon, and there’s no turning back. Welcome to this masterclass." 

Boni G introduces Vinna Våldyr (@vinnavaldyr), a new alias that explores a more introspective and deep side of his sound. This project reflects his current creative moment, bringing together the richness of his experience with fresh perspectives, all while staying true to his roots and musical vision. Over the course of his 30-year career, Boni G has left a mark on the electronic music scene. In 2000, he co-founded Low Records Store, dedicating a decade to its growth and development. He was the driving force behind projects like Huna and Bisau, hosted the Indigo show on Lie Radio, and spent nearly 10 years teaching at Proaudio Escuela until 2020. With Vinna Valdyr, Boni G connects the dots between his extensive career and the new horizons he’s charting, offering a sound that’s both reflective and forward-thinking - a perfect blend of his journey and where he’s headed next.

Patrick Russell is a true veteran of the US underground, perhaps one of the last unsung heroes of a now lost era in the Midwest. A genuine sonic storyteller, he magically transforms the diaspora of acid, pure jack energy, and hints of IDM into a deep, fluent sonic dialog that never fails to devastate both minds and dance floor.

A Detroit-bred DJ, artist, and producer active since the early 90's, Patrick has now made New York City his home. Perhaps best known as a key figure in the legendary No Way Back parties, his ability to weave intensely unique, long-format narratives has earned him critical acclaim and repeat performances at Japan’s Labyrinth festival, Berghain, Unsound, and DEMF/Movement. Patrick has also been steadily building a strong catalog of high-profile productions to compliment his increasingly varied, hypnotic, and in-demand DJ sets; his recent 3-track remix EP on The Bunker New York also marks his induction as an official resident DJ at the long-running Brooklyn party.

His consummate taste and disciplined execution have created a respect that cannot be purchased. Patrick Russell is not just a name to watch, he is someone to be experienced.

For our next Unrush journey, we are pleased to welcome Moon Patrol, the duo based in New York, comprised of Irina Kotik and Gilles Wasserman. As the co-founders of the delayed platform and Never Late label, they’ve built one of our favourite go-to spaces for the deeper side of electronic music.

Our paths - in real life - first crossed at Mostra Festival in 2023, and it was one of those rare connections where you just know there’s much more to come. Moon Patrol’s vision, both as artists and curators, resonates deeply with Unrush’s ethos, and this podcast stands as a testament to their exquisite ear for relaxing, meditative music.

So find your quiet space, put on your headphones, and let Moon Patrol guide you through a serene, musical escape.

"An invisible voice imparts its wisdom to me,  
Silently, I follow where it leads.  
The unseen voice teaches me creation,  
From nothingness, sun rays appear.  

I stand before a golden wall,  
Words are written in an ancient tongue.  
Soon, I will discover the old alphabet,  
Unravel its message, and understand its song."

It is a pleasure to have gifted Switzerland based artist @timnah-sommerfeldt with us for the 26th episode of our Herbarium mix series! 🌱
She composed a trippy journey through ambient, dnb and grey area - a really deep and introspective ride. She created a very coherent story around her choice of plant, the European beech. 

Here's a little backstory by TImnah about her choice:
"I chose the native, beautiful European beech (Fagus sylvatica) because it serves as an important point of reference for me during my mushroom walks in the forest. Among all the trees there, it is especially the beech that always guides me.
A large mushroom community lives in symbiosis with this impressive tree. It's fascinating to observe how this natural cycle begins anew each year—from summer into winter.

~ The coexistence of the beech with fungi begins when the delicate root of a beech seedling comes into contact with the soil and the mycorrhizal fungi living within it. It only ends long after the tree's death, when the dead beech wood is completely decomposed. ~

My mix was recorded after a snowy, cold November day in the forest and is joyfully dedicated to the European beech, which gifted me a delicious dinner 🍄‍🟫🦪🌳🤍"

About Timnah
Timnah lives, works and feeds the cats in the Northwestern extremities of Switzerland. Brought up in her parents’ jazz clubs and deeply influenced by her brother’s love for dub and soundsystem culture, she started DJing just after the massively feared Millenium Bug had threatened to offset our relation to time and space. Dedicated to drawing her own map of late 20th century sonic landscapes, she spent the early 2000s exploring 90s electronics including breakbeat, triphop, ambient techno, drum&bass, house and jungle. After a short but sweet excursion into producing in the early 2010s, Timnah dedicated herself fully to spinning the wheels and transversing genres, gravitating towards her current signature sound that spans immersive sound baths and intergalactic carpet rides in half-time. Timnah is a member of Amenthia Recordings and a recent addition to the A Walking Contradiction Collective.

For our 31st podcast, we are delighted to welcome Berlin-based artist and sound designer Toxido Mask. Her track Along the Vibe, released last summer on Pregnant Void's Ember Oasis compilation, lingered in our minds with its unique, modern yet deeply emotional touch. In this mix, she leads us through a rich soundscape of haunting atmospheres and subtle emotion—a captivating odyssey through untamed realms, where mysterious vocals merge with tribal rhythms, evoking a world both mystical and raw.

We are honoured to share a deeply personal and beautiful ambient mix by Blind Observatory for Unrush. True to his signature style, this mix unfolds like an acoustic panorama - layered with cinematic textures, immersive sounds, and delicate facets of emotion. Each track flows effortlessly, as if hiking through a natural biotope of sound, moving between different atmospheres with a calm ease. This mix is dedicated to his beloved dog, Plüshka, who recently passed away:

"I compiled and recorded this set during the last weeks I had with my wonderful dog Plüshka. My true soulmate. It is a story of two tethered souls slowly untangling. About a connection getting grainy, then fuzzy and blurry before fading. A journal of our parting. It's a little tribute to my big love."

This heartfelt journey is an ode to love, loss, and the unbreakable bond between kindred spirits. We hope you enjoy the set and have a relaxed start to the week...

On the Saturday night of Monument Festival 2024, amenthia recordings co-founder agonis delivered a legendary session of futuristic, crystalline electronics. With the dancers engulfed in thick fog and red lasers, and the newly upgraded sound system of the Varden stage at his command, agonis drenched the crowd with tidal waves of finely tuned, precision psychedelia that was crafted specifically for the Norwegian forest. The ultimate high fidelity speaker test. 

Play it extra loud for your family over the holiday season.

Honored to welcome Morocco-based Karim to our series, dear friend and founder of the beloved Tikita label, who I finally met at Monument Festival in 2022 after watching him open the weekend in beautiful fashion. The path Karim charts through this set mirrors that of his label’s truly inspirational and decade-spanning journey, one of prophetic timelessness and stalwart vision revealing a curatorial prowess like no other. Enter a valley of orphic rhythm and embrace this tonic for the body and mind, a rare and long-awaited mix from the artist to cast light upon a new year. Thank you Karim!
