This week, we're in for a real treat — and just in time for 4/20! This is some of the headiest, trippiest stuff we've heard in a long time, courtesy of versatile micro-master @luminescu. 

Aside from being a lovely human being and fantastic DJ, Luminescu is also a highly talented producer, so after you've savored this mix be sure to treat yourself with a deep dive into his discography! 

Check out our bilingual interview with the man himself below:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦(𝐬) 𝐝𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐞𝐧𝐣𝐨𝐲 𝐚𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐦𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐜? 

Spontaneously, I would say poetry and literature. It’s been a big part of my life and my academic studies. There are times when I read less, but I always have a book in progress. I recently came across a Quebec masterpiece, “Il pleuvait des oiseaux” by Jocelyne Saucier, an outstanding writer!

𝐇𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐢𝐬 𝐥𝐚 𝐦𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐪𝐮𝐞 𝐩𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐝𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐞𝐫, 𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐥𝐬 𝐚𝐥𝐛𝐮𝐦𝐬, 𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐬 𝐨𝐮 𝐬𝐭𝐲𝐥𝐞𝐬 𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐬-𝐭𝐮?

J’écoute vraiment de tout, ça dépend de l’humeur, de la saison. Mais si je devais définir ce que j’écoute le plus en dehors du studio ou des dance floors, je dirais en vrac, Reggae Dub (High Tone, Zenzile, Easy Star All Star), Stoner & Psychedelic Rock, Gypsy Jazz, Ambient (Mars Lazar), Jazz-hop/Boom-Bap (Eric Truffaz, Guru), Vienna Dub (Tosca), Psydub (Schulman) et mention spéciale pour l’album « Simple Things » de Zero7. 

Plus récemment j’écoute en boucle les émissions « Balance Show » (Spacewalker) et « My Favorite Things » (Psycut) de Music Is My Sanctuary : un joyeux mélange de jazz, soul, hip-hop, etc.

𝐈𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐧 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐭𝐫𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐚𝐮𝐝𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐦𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐜 𝐚𝐧𝐝/𝐨𝐫 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐬?

I want to make people smile and let go for a while. To achieve this, I choose (or create) friendly and bouncy, sunny songs. Or on the contrary, I like to go for evil and completely trippy sound design, to make the brain twist. With the right sound system, it ends up having the same effect!

𝐃é𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐬-𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐥𝐞 𝐃𝐉 𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐭𝐡 𝐨𝐮 𝐥𝐞 𝐬𝐜é𝐧𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐨 𝐝’𝐮𝐧𝐞 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐢𝐝é𝐚𝐥𝐞 𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐨𝐢.

Honnêtement, peu importe le DJ booth tant que j’ai de quoi jouer des morceaux en digital et mes disques vinyle. Par contre le lieu importe beaucoup pour moi. J’ai envie de retrouver cette ambiance unique qui caractérise les fêtes libres en extérieur. Un gros volume, les pieds dans le sable à côté d’une rivière, taper du pied sur un champ de cailloux, dans la forêt, ou encore sous un pont d’autoroute, je vous laisse imaginer! 

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐤 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐞𝐱𝐜𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲 𝐢𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭 𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐭-𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐚 𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐠𝐢𝐠?

I’m really looking forward to trying out an Acidcore remix I did for the brilliant artist √Racine, which will be released on Ghost of the Shelf Records this summer. I’ve stepped out of my comfort zone and back to my first love, sound system tekno. Can’t wait for a big purring wall to really find out how this composition sounds!

Only For Robots 186 - Carsten Jost

@conforce aka Versalife is a restless producer residing in Rotterdam, Holland, who is forever keen to search out new techniques, tools and sounds for the various musical projects in which he is involved. Continually flirting with a range of genres like techno, ambient techno, electro and house on numerous EPs and LPs, he also operates in sonic territory that has no easily identifiable name. As one of the most prolific artists in the scene over the last 10 years, he has become an essential voice in the often crowded conversation: he is someone who always speaks clearly and captivatingly and has done so via more than ten full length albums and more than 30 EPs on labels like @delsinrecords, @clone-nl, @2020visionrecordings, @echocord and his own label @transcendent-records. With this performances he focusses on musical content rather than equipment. The digital/analogue dichotomy of his productions spread into these sets, always stressing the importance of the human element without shying away from technology’s advances at the same time as marrying genuine emotional depth with dance floor compatibility.
"A solitary Conforce release can never be described as predictable, with each unknown entity having the potential to take you on an emotional rollercoaster or a primal abandon" — @inverted-audio
"Impeccably-crafted techno that maintains bite in its grooves even while the textures spiral into the ether." - @bleep_bot

A few weeks ago, Stólar label boss Philipp Priebe released his second LP named 'Apparent Calm Palms,' which stole our hearts instantaneously after listening to it. Over the last couple of years, Philipp has been steadily building a reputation as a talented producer who further explores the depths of hazy house music, culminating with releasing the aforementioned album via Mainz/Hamburg-based record label, Feuilleton. 
While the album is still fresh and on heavy rotation here at Delayed, we've got this marvelous live set from Philipp, which is a perfect addition to his album, featuring new and unreleased tracks from this talented German artist. It is a smooth deep house journey in its finest form.

Avenue Red is proud to present a pair of masterful deep/dub techno mixes created by Alastair Kelly, who comes from the seaside town of Ryde on the north edge of the Isle of Wight, just a few miles off England's south-central coast.

Alastair is the man behind the awesome Lempuyang label, which goes from strength to strength as it builds out its impressive roster of luminaries in the deep/dub techno sphere. Lempuyang has pressed and dispatched new weapons-grade materials from many of Avenue Red's most beloved artists, having clocked up 10 releases since the label's inception in late 2021.

These artists include some of our previous guests and good friends: OHM, Octal Industries and Hydergine; Manchester's Vinyl Exchange record shop boss and artist J.S. Zeiter; Mosaic label boss Steve O'Sullivan AKA Bluetrain; Icelandic legend Yagya; Japanese artist Altone; Moscow artist Anton Kubikov; Canadian dub techno specialist Deadbeat and mysterious mad hatter Sa Pa, among others.

It's truly staggering how far this label has come in 1 short year! These two mixes from Alastair help to colour in the picture of his inspirations and trace how these roots extend to the shoots of his flourishing new imprint, along the way showcasing some of the sublime material it has released so far. And now for part 1...

"A pair of mixes from Lempuyang's chief consumer of hot drinks and bread-based snacks. First up, I have for you 115 minutes of total deepness, recommended to go with a cup of builder's tea and a double-decker Marmite sandwich." Alastair Kelly, December 2022
