Aawadh - 24th October 2025

Continuum: a coherent whole characterised as a collection, sequence, or progression of values or elements varying by minute degrees.

Some magical moments are impossible to capture. I am sure you have been there before: you try to explain, to put words on it, but the energy, the essence, just doesn't come through. Even the sharpest pens or the most eloquent talkers, are sometimes lost for words on those instants when everything clicks, when everything is in harmony. 

I've had the pleasure of meeting someone who has the power to convey those moments, distill their essence, and turn them into sound (and lately, also into images). Those who had the pleasure of meeting Ameeva, will know what I am talking about. He composes with emotion, shares sound that is full of passion and has a unique sense of feeling. Coming fresh from a performance at Casa Montjuic in partnership with Mostra, he is no stranger to those that love the most atmospheric ambient sounds. Head to his Bandcamp for a sample of how his music manages to touch the most feral and deep of emotions. 

The moment he captured for you, and all of us, happened some months ago on the outskirts of Madrid. And for me, it was an eye opener. A bunch of friends, many of us recently met, sharing food and drinks. Just a night of classic spanish "sobremesa", gone a bit out of hand. At that point, Alex and some others have a simple idea and ask if we can move the soundsystem to the garden, set up the hammocks outside, connect the Digitakt, and do a live set under the stars. Bear in mind, it is 2am. 

If you are with a group of people that asks these types of questions, and the answer is yes, you are in the right place, with the right ones. 

The rest of what happened, is here for you to listen to. 

Thank you Alex. This is it. This is why we do this.

251026 MIX

Columbian-based label, From A Lost Place is no stranger to us here at Delayed. Since 2018 the imprint run by founder, Launaea has been a consistent presence in the ambient, deep and experimental musical worlds that we are so fond of. With past releases including notable names like Zemög, Claudio PRC, Launaea himself, and a few monster compilations, there’s something for everyone in their rich backlog.

Marking a new direction for the label, the latest forthcoming release, titled ‘parasympathetic’ finds us listening to a glittering five tracker by the German artist, YYARD. Bright melodies abound as the label states, ‘perfect definition of the artist's eclecticism, blending groove and jazz influences with very meticulous rhythms, rich and organic percussions perfectly suited for the dance floor’.

'apnoe', the second to final track on the release, takes a darker approach, compared to the emotional highs of, say, Endless Summers. A full-sounding synth lead takes center stage as it grows and grows, while snappy percussion plays throughout, providing that proper groove and infectious movement. Tracks like these are ear worms and proper for a warmup session.

'apnoe', and in turn ‘parasympathetic’ will be released on November 20th.

PREMIERE: YYARD - apnoe [From A Lost Place]

Spettri Del Dub - Aritmia Sonora 08-11-2025

For today’s premiere we have the return of the poison dart frog aka GIFKIKKER, the Belgian imprint with whom we spoke a few months ago for our Label Spotlight series. Known for having a razor sharp, psychedelic edge as well as a deep connection to the natural world, they takes things in a softer direction this time with some light & airy drum & bass. You never quite know what to expect from the collective but they work hard to create a common thread of atmospheric consistency which really shows. They’re also committed to showcasing local talent bubbling within the Belgian scene.

The 4-track EP is the debut from Belgian newcomer Blossoms Overnight. The first track on the release, ‘Aumira’, is a beautiful deep breath of ambience with sparse, floaty breakbeats peppered throughout & a steady dubby groove. It’s a track for those moments when the sun just starts to come up over the horizon in the early hours of the morning, ushering in warmth & the promise of a new day. The EP includes a remix from a fellow Belgian artist a.brehme which was premiered recently by our friends over at Oslated.

‘GIFKIKKER011’ is set to release digitally on November 14th.

I would like to thank Emika for inviting me onto her beautiful platform. And to take a moment to share a few words about this mix, which marks a special moment for me. It’s been years since I last created a full-scale, serious production mix, so I took this opportunity to showcase some unheard tracks and exciting new forthcoming releases.
The last two tunes in the mix are particularly special. John (Heavenly Bodies) and I thought our “Ourá” project was complete with our album. However, I recently rediscovered some forgotten demos, and together we decided to revisit and build upon the new sound we had developed—this is reflected in track 16.
To close the mix, we present an emotional magnum opus: a remix of “Heavenly Bodies - Prima Materia”, which we expect to release sometime in 2026.

Human Lessons #118 - Foreseer



Music travels faster than ever, yet the connections that shape it still depend on patience. Sense of the Substrate, the new release from our own Griff Fulton under his Aspetuck alias, feels like the result of that slow exchange. Out on Konstrukt, the Nijmegen label that has built its identity around subtle consistency, the kind of releases where artwork, sound, and intention all seem to breathe the same air. Aspetuck’s latest record fits naturally into that lineage. Following his standout LP on Oslated earlier this year, Griff returns with a five-track EP that combines warmth, precision, and patience into a sound that feels unmistakably his own.

The record moves through slower tempos and unforced grooves, where rhythm has room to stretch and melody can take its time to unfold. Our premiere, “Subterranean Rhizome,” sits right in that zone, a track that glows rather than burns. It opens with interlaced percussion and a gentle breakbeat that sets a calm propulsion, gradually joined by flickering chords that rise like light through shallow water. Every element feels hand-shaped, balanced between the tangible and the ethereal. By the time the main riff arrives, you’re already somewhere else entirely, in that rare headspace where the body listens and the mind moves.

Sense of the Substrate arrives November 21 on Konstrukt, available digitally and on vinyl. It’s another chapter in a story that values connection over noise and craft over speed, the kind of record that reminds you why physical formats, and the people behind them, still matter.

Premiere: RBI - Liquid Shadow [CD001]

There was a meme circling the internet at some point saying, “People who show you new music are important.” Connecting with Axymt, a Lyon-based DJ and music aficionado, feels exactly like that. It is like meeting someone who speaks your dialect of obsession, where recommending a track is almost a form of autobiography. His work with atmós sphaîra, Monochrome, and the Ouroboros crew carries the rare consistency of someone who pulls from many corners yet curates with a firm sense of direction. You can sense the collector’s instinct in the way he folds tribal percussion into dub-leaning atmospheres and in the way groove becomes a kind of compass, guiding the set without ever feeling decorative.

For this edition of Delayed with, he eases into a slow-moving techno ritual that feels deceptively simple on the surface. The BPMs sit low enough to let the body loosen and the mind wander, yet the pulse keeps sliding forward with a subtle undertow. This is the zone we jokingly call seaweed techno, flexible and buoyant, shaped by tiny currents rather than grand gestures. Axymt sidesteps the temptation of drama and focuses on micro-movements inside the percussion, letting small mutations carry the narrative. The mix can open a room gently or guide you through a late-night drift. Whether you catch it in passing or sink fully into its grain, the reward is the same: a gentle nudge that the right groove finds you, not the other way around.
