IO Podcast Series Episode 046 mixed by Binary Thoughts.

Binary Thoughts is an electronic music duo from Macedonia, currently based in Skopje. Their name may speak for itself, but there is a much deeper meaning embedded within. Currently, they are exploring the vast horizons of deep and hypnotic soundscapes intending to create their unique blend of creativity to start producing their music.
The ancestral way of thinking has always been 'binary'. To understand nature and all its phenomena, we made a world of oppositions (day/night, sun/moon, male/female). Where the law of "all or nothing” rules, there is no in-between. But the reality is indeed always more complex and more interconnected than what our 'perception' of the world suggests.
This perception beyond this “all or nothing” connected Ana Bogatinovska and Jovana Gjorgievska. At first strangers to each other, they met at a music festival in their native country; And after a long discussion about electronic music, they've decided to do a project that will connect their somewhat different but similar taste in electronic music.
Their melancholic, delicate and hypnotic sounds use 'binary thinking' as a motor to press on to a third term or a higher category that represents a transcending reconciliation or unity: where thesis and antithesis are always harnessed to yield a synthesis. Where seemingly opposite or contrary forces may actually be complementary: Yin and Yang.

MNMT Label Showcase : Huinali Recordings

A big part of why we do what we do at Delayed is to create a platform for like-minded artists as well as connect in a worldwide community with music lovers who also appreciate a more soothing sound. It’s a best case that we are now able to feature Hame, an artist that comes straight from this community. He appeared in 2022 with his first release, “Compathy” on Lola Haro’s new born label Small Steps - and immediately touched listeners, bookers and us. Unsurprisingly he got booked for a live set at DOEL Festival and we strongly believe that all of you shall get to know the Amsterdam-based artist and get an impression of his approach, journey and of course, his music.

Today, we’re excited to open a new chapter for Embodiment with the launch of our redefined podcast series. For the first episode, we welcome back Owl, an incredible artist and one of the kindest souls, whose dreamlike mixing style never ceases to amaze us.

It’s been two years since he last played at one of our intimate gatherings, and our connection has only grown stronger ever since. We’re grateful to have him return to the platform with a beautifully crafted mix that sets the tone for the episodes to come.

Settle in, take a moment, and let the journey begin.

Embodiment 066 - Owl

We're happy to present the next episode of Sonic Spells, provided by the ambient hooligan-wizard Mateusz Grzybowski.

Hailing from Białystok, Poland, Mateusz is closely connected to the local music scene, particularly the iconic FOMO club community. He performs not only at techno-focused events but also at art exhibitions and other interdisciplinary events, where he explores ambient and experimental sounds. Mateusz is also deeply involved in music festivals such as Electrum Up To Date or Monument.

His contribution to the series, in our ears, acts as a display of beauty, mastery and precision of the magic school of air, wind, snow and freeze. And that doesn't mean you're going to be submerged in layers of harsh noise here - the temperature balance Mateusz keeps in the mix is perhaps a presentation of how to keep your soul comfy & warm despite the fact that some of the nature's gifts are not particularly easy to live along with. With the recent winter being an exceptional struggle for myself, I've felt a wave of consolation energy coming my way from this mix and I hope you will be able to feel it as well <3

Enjoy,
Entire // CM

In the close future, he has a new exciting album coming out, so please consider leaving a follow on Mateusz's pages below:

@aeraemusic



𝕥𝕖𝕟𝕥𝕒𝕔𝕦𝕝𝕒𝕣 presents Aerae
— a voice rising from Rouen’s mist, weaving techno pulse and d&b tension into something raw, ritual, and deeply human.

Fresh from her stunning debut album Percussive Reverie (Annulled Music) and ahead of her forthcoming Nefanda on Samurai Music this July, Aerae speaks in refracted rhythms: sinewy drums, cavernous reverbs, melodies coded in Latin fragments. Dance music as incantation—dense yet breathing, suspended between rave energy and meditative drift.

In the booth, she ventures further—fusing UK-leaning sounds with trippy twists and textural experimentation. A flow that pulls body & mind into the same gravitational field.

𝘐'𝘷𝘦 𝘣𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘶𝘳𝘨𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘳𝘦𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘯 𝘵𝘰 𝘥𝘳𝘶𝘮 & 𝘣𝘢𝘴𝘴—𝘮𝘺 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘭 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘢𝘱𝘺. 𝘐 𝘦𝘹𝘱𝘭𝘰𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘭𝘢𝘺𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘦𝘹𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦𝘴, 𝘴𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘶𝘯𝘦𝘹𝘱𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘤𝘳𝘰𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴 𝘣𝘦𝘵𝘸𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘬𝘴. 𝘐𝘵 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘢 𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘴𝘱𝘰𝘵𝘭𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘴 𝘸𝘩𝘰 𝘪𝘯𝘴𝘱𝘪𝘳𝘦 𝘮𝘦, 𝘴𝘭𝘪𝘱 𝘪𝘯 𝘢 𝘧𝘦𝘸 𝘶𝘯𝘳𝘦𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘦𝘥 𝘤𝘶𝘵𝘴, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘷𝘪𝘦𝘸 𝘵𝘸𝘰 𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘬𝘴 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘮𝘺 𝘯𝘦𝘹𝘵 𝘌𝘗.

(J’avais ce besoin de retourner à la dnb, de me replonger dans cette énergie, qui est aussi ma thérapie personnelle…)

Settle in and let this Tentacular mix carry you—hidden forests, warehouse dawns, & beyond. The currents will surely pull you under.
