In this edition, we are thrilled to feature a mix from a true stalwart of the scene, Joachim Spieth. Spieth, a familiar name to our Delayed family, is an outstanding producer and a formidable DJ. As the mastermind behind the always-reliable AFFIN record label, his dedication to precision and meticulous craftsmanship is evident across diverse musical styles. From the drone ambient music tales that soothe the soul to the hypnotic rhythms that propel us into the depths of techno, Joachim Spieth is a maestro who wears many sonic hats.

Spieth's mix takes us on an aural expedition, steering clear of the conventional. It commences with a dubby, hypnotic, and ethereal allure, setting the stage for an enigmatic voyage. A beautiful dichotomy unfolds as the soundscape envelops the listener, balancing expansiveness and intimacy. In the dimly lit caverns of clandestine warehouses, Spieth's wizardry weaves a tale designed to enthrall without resorting to the clichéd "banging techno" trope.

A transformative moment beckons around the midway point of this odyssey, where a nebulous haze descends upon the dancefloor. Lost in the undulating waves of sound, the crowd becomes tangled in the enchanting atmosphere Spieth has meticulously crafted. At this juncture, the mix undertakes a distinctive shift reminiscent of a deep-sea exploration inside a submarine, plunging us into the depths of Spieth's musical imagination.

With beginnings in early-nineties Midwest rave culture, Sir Fice has an appreciation and deep understanding of techno's history. Influenced early on by Plastikman's "Sheet One", Sir Fice's techno sound has organically progressed from the funky and hard techno of the late 90's, through modern minimal to the refined sound of today merging contemporary digital sounds with analog thump. With 15 years of experience behind the decks, Sir Fice's aggressive mixing style distorts the line between classic and contemporary. His sets span the realms of deep, funky and drugged up house to dark and mental and full on techno. Sir Fice has played alongside techno heavyweights Richie Hawtin, Steve Bug, Maetrik, Ambivalent, Barem, Derek Plaslaiko, Acid Circus, Dilo, Punisher, Robert Armani and more.

As a promoter, his industry roots run just as deep having commandeered several Event Promotions projects over the past decade, most notably with Milwaukee's AudioTribe collective, PROJEKT MKE and Projekt INTL. AudioTribe's successful two-year run of their 'HomeBrew' events laid the groundwork for projekt mke, a collaboration that specialized in bringing world class, boundary pushing techno, house and minimal to the Midwest. Now rebranded as Projekt INTL, the collaborative's efforts have a broader vision for the future of Contemporary American Techno Culture, through national and international promotion and events, a podcast roster of international artists and a passionate goal to raise the profile of avant-garde Techno & House Music in North America.
