"Old walls breathe with the sound of running streams.
Here, resistance turns to melody and memory to light.
Through the hush of ancient laundries, water carries forgotten voices."

Author’s note: In this set—beyond the water theme, where we play with certain field recordings that evoke it, like the dripping of irrigation systems, the Mediterranean Sea (since we are in Catalonia, with a poem by Ovidi Montllor at the beginning and another by Salvador Espriu near the end), rain, or even the washhouse itself—we also wanted to play with sunlight. Our set began in the sun and ended at night, and the musical progression was designed to follow that change.

Binomi (@binomi) is the project of Jordi Aparicio (@slim-jordi) and Joan Gila (@joan-gila), born from a friendship forged through music and a constant exchange of records, recommendations, and sonic curiosities. DJs and record collectors from Tarragona, they run the radio program of the Mostra festival together with their friend Javi, and have appeared on stations such as Dublab Barcelona with a show dedicated to exploring the history of musical movements across different regions.

DIGIT is a decentralized micro-festival of electronic music and digital art taking place on 12–13 September 2025 across Montbrió del Camp, Pratdip, and Reus (Tarragona). Organized by the cultural association El Rampell (@elrampell) - based in Pratdip, about 150 km from Barcelona - the festival brings contemporary culture to rural settings and the wider Tarragona region.

As part of the program, Binomi will perform at Els Rentadors during the deep-listening journey, sharing the stage with Bastien, .apart, Perila, and ABSIS.

Obscure Echoes: 037 [Perpendicular 2025]

Perpendicular Festival unravels as one continuous thread, bending and reforming across days and nights until the sense of time itself begins to dissolve. From Friday afternoon to the first pale hints of Monday light, the forest carries a constant flux of sound, shifting from floor-focused intensity to moments of near-weightless suspension. The turning point comes when the moon hovers over the DJ booth on the main stage and the current draws inward: La Cabaña, a wooden cabin hidden among the pines, becomes the gathering place for music at its most unguarded and exploratory. Here, reality softens, and performances take the shape of dreams.

It was in these hours between Friday and Saturday that STBL opened the portal. His set arrived quietly, almost imperceptibly, whispers in the air, static drifting like dust in moonlight. Slowly, harmonies began to shimmer and unfold, shadowed by pads that seemed to stretch toward some unreachable horizon. Beneath it all, a subtle rumble grew, reassuring, like company long imagined finally appearing at your side. Nothing felt rushed; each sound seemed to wait for the moment it was meant to reveal itself.  

The power of the set lies in its restraint, in the way it suspended time and quietly rewrote it in the minds of those present. A moment like this resists fading; it lingers, carried forward as a story that will be told again and again.

Once again, we journey through a deep state of lucid dreaming with this mind-altering live recording from a true legend — multidisciplinary artist Javier Marimon, whose philosophical approach to his craft continues to inspire us across so many facets of life.

Recorded live at Lucid Dreams, Espacio Perpendicular, September 2025.
~~
"For each live set, I try to prepare a selection of new or reworked tracks that fit the occasion. The invitation to Lucid Dreams was a chance to revisit a time when I used to explore more intimate music—avoiding obvious beats as a reaction to the big city around me, a direction I had gradually moved away from over the years.

Lately, even the depth of nature and silence hasn’t inspired that ‘ambient’ side of me. Instead, it’s given rise to a foggy, beat-heavy aesthetic—full of bass and speed—which I’m still having fun trying to decode.

This time, though, I had the opportunity to merge the last few years into a kind of dream-state sound exploration—like drifting off to sleep while watching a movie or listening to people talk around you. That’s the feeling at the start of this recording, captured live at Espacio Perpendicular using an SP-404MKII, a 1010 Lemondrop, and a multi-stomp pedal.

I imagined deep silence and invisible, horizontal friends as the abstract audience I was playing for. It made me feel like I was in my own room, just playing like any other day. It’s always special to perform in this space."

The Observatory - Javier Marimon (Live) @ Lucid Dreams, Espacio Perpendicular, 2025

The night had turned cold by the time Camu began, but inside La Cabaña, everything felt suspended: warm light, still bodies, a low hum stretching through wood and pine. People settled into corners, wrapped in layers, quieted by the vibration that marked the start. The music felt transmitted, its slow-moving drones drifting through the wooden walls and into the forest beyond. The sound rolled out like fog under moonlight, patient, opaque, its motion too subtle to measure. It was music to dissolve into.
Minutes became air. The cabin started to tremble. Camu’s sense of space was uncanny, each drone a line drawn in mist, each pause a small release of gravity. Later came the fragments: field recordings, faint acapellas, echoes of the forest replayed from another world. By then, the cabin no longer felt grounded. It was a stationary vessel, hovering somewhere between the trees and the stars, surrounded by invisible energy. Somewhere, just beyond the clearing, Pablo’s bass murmured like thunder in a parallel world. When silence finally returned, it wasn’t emptiness; it was the echo of what had passed through.

Delayed x Perpendicular: Camu

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

The setting is Mostra festival, a special gathering in Barcelona that needs no presentation for the lovers of experimental sounds, ambient explorations and avant-garde dancefloor beats. A dark room inside the Fabra i Coats industry complex -now turned a cultural space- is slowly filling up with devote festival-goers. Mostra attracts a crowd of curious listeners and seasoned music enthusiasts, and feels like a bit of a pilgrimage for fans of those deeper and more adventurous sounds. On Thursday during the early hours, there is a sense of reunion, a loving community that finally gets together again to see familiar faces, and a very welcoming bunch greeting the first time comers. 

And Maribel Tafur was soundtracking this magical moment. She stepped up to play the first notes of the festival and start colouring the blank sonic canvas of this Mostra weekend. The Peruvian composer, based in Barcelona, borrows from nature -particularly from the Andes and her family archive- using found sounds and other field recordings, and weaves them with selections of warm pads and ambiences. 

The result couldn’t be more fitting: Maribel welcomed us to Mostra with a soundtrack that channeled the feeling of that warm hug and that invitation to come in and sit down, because we are home. The sounds of water creeks, rustling leaves of fire crackling mixed with comforting soundbeds made for a perfect first stroke for this year’s Mostra painting. 

And we couldn’t be more honoured to share the recording with you today. All the friends that follow this channel know how special Mostra is for us. 

Thank you Maribel and Mostra.

For this edition, we welcome Menou, also known as Iwamaki - a Japan-based DJ and live performer exploring the deep territories of drone and ambient techno.

Her sets unfold like slow-moving landscapes, where layered textures and resonant tones invite deep focus and stillness.

This mix was recorded following her performance at Audio Base Camp #3 at YCAM in Yamaguchi - an experience she describes as one of the most powerful and immersive moments of her DJ career.

A transmission of subtle intensity and evolving depth - where each sound breathes into the next.

Some collaborations feel orchestrated. This one felt inevitable. Reeko and Mostra share a certain DNA - innovative, uncompromising, with an appetite for risk. One’s a festival, the other a force of nature, but both operate outside the usual margins. So when Reeko stepped into the cavernous Pavelló Olímpic on the final day of Mostra 2025, the match didn’t need explaining. After three days of sonic overstimulation, the crowd could’ve easily slipped into post-peak autopilot. Instead, something sparked.

Reeko played with the confidence of someone who doesn’t need to raise his voice to be heard. He didn’t grab attention, instead he tuned the room to his frequency. No spectacle, just sustained pressure. The kind that doesn’t shout, but hums somewhere in your bones. From the first mix, he had total control, not just over tempo, but over tension, perception, direction. It wasn’t peak-time euphoria. It was something colder, sharper, more elemental.

What happened on that floor wasn’t mystical, and it wasn’t romantic. It was human circuitry, bodies moving like they’d been rewired. A dance floor fully switched on. In a festival stacked with standout sets, this one kept floating to the surface in post-Mostra conversations. We’re proud to share this recording. It was special. Now it’s permanent.

Delayed x Mostra: Reeko

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.

Delayed with... Axymt

Close your eyes & imagine a scene unfolding in front of you - the air is cold & crisp, your breath barely visible in the darkness as you exhale, the warm air in your lungs condensing into clouds of fog as it leaves your body. Everything is quiet & the trees sit still around you, all of the sounds gently muffled, other than a faint warm rumble of sub frequencies, somewhere in the distance. You can’t quite pinpoint it but you follow the sound as your feet softly crunch down on frozen earth. As you get closer, you suddenly notice a mysteriously intriguing concrete structure start to appear in the forest. Lights glowing from windows partly shrouded in freshly fallen snow, resembling an abandoned bunker, eerie but peaceful. The music invites you towards it, so you open the door & step in. Immediately you’re enveloped by warm, humid air & hit with a full spectrum of sound, as if the opening of the door was the opening of a low pass filter. 

For this week’s Delayed with edition, we welcome Berlin-based artist Valentin Ginies with a special recording from this bunker in the woods. You may be familiar with Valentin already, as the man behind 11001 Records, or through the festival he organizes outside of Berlin, Third Eye Festival. Last December, he was lucky enough to play an all night long set at this mysterious venue, after the first big snowstorm of the year, with 1 meter of snow on the ground. Aptly named Concrete, the venue is as discreet as it gets, an intimate, minimalist space with no signage on the outside, tucked away in the mountains of a small village in the Japanese Alps called Hakuba, just outside the city of Nagano in Japan. The recording consists of the first 2 hours of his set, where he slowly & steadily drew people into the space, setting the tone for what was to come.

There are festivals you attend and festivals that rearrange something small but permanent inside you. Perpendicular belongs to the latter. After collaborating in the past from afar, 2025 was the first time we actually stepped into the pine-covered clearing that so many trusted friends had mythologized. The stories turned out to be accurate. Perpen is a wavelength, a temporary pocket of reality where strangers treat each other like long-lost cousins and music arrives without the burden of proving anything.

Medi became the custodian of the final night, a responsibility whispered about long before we reached the festival grounds. We met him in Valencia days earlier, sharing coffees and paellas, and the quiet confidence in his presence suggested the weight of experience rather than ego. His record bag ended up in our car on the drive to the woods, and resisting the urge to peek at those vinyls felt like an oath. Friends offered no clues about what he might play, which only deepened the suspense. Some artists close a floor. Medi was preparing to close a narrative.

When the cartridges were swapped, and the stylus touched down, fatigue evaporated like mist. Techno and electro braided, pulled along by those razor-sharp snares that sliced through the smoke like a metronome for the collective psyche. Each snap felt like a reminder that the night still had business to finish. Medi’s vinyl work was absurdly fluid, so intuitive it seemed the records were cueing themselves. Broken patterns teased hallucinations, basslines carried the tired bodies into borrowed energy. Then The Cure’s Forest appeared like a knowing smile from the universe, reminding us of where we were and how lucky we felt to be there. The dancefloor dissolved into laughter, hugs, disbelief, and eventually a gentle crawl toward La Cabaña for one final ambient delirium.

What lingers about this mix isn’t just the track selection or the execution, but the emotional climate it documents. You can hear the relief of a weekend well-lived, the gentle ache of goodbye, the kind of affection that only forms on a dancefloor surrounded by trees and dust and shared emotions. Perpen 2025 quietly rewired our sense of what a festival can feel like. Until the next pilgrimage, Medi’s recording remains the ember reminding us it wasn’t a dream.

In Geometrical Psychology 4, vibration becomes the primary language.
Microscopic tremors resonate through heavy bass fields, tracing invisible geometries of emotion and thought.
Here, sound is not heard — it is felt, pressing against the boundaries of perception.

Low frequencies drift like tectonic plates, slow and inevitable, while delicate oscillations shimmer at the edge of silence.
The composition unfolds as a study of resonance — between form and void, motion and stillness, body and code.
Each tone is both weight and wave, mapping the hidden architectures of the mind into sound.

Geometrical Psychology 4

Breathe With the Nights (Epic Meditation Music)

Javi’s contribution to La Mostra’s biennial unfolded inside the Convent de Sant Agustí like a quiet act of urban archaeology. Tilect’s pairing of his sound design with Marta Lofi’s live visuals turned the cloister into a resonant chamber where Ciutat Vella’s streets reappeared as spectral traces. He approached the theme in the only way he knows: wander, listen, record, return to a quiet corner, and let the fragments dictate the form. The resulting piece bends the city into a dream logic of its own, where echoes slip into harmony and environmental debris reshapes itself into something strangely elegant.

There is a particular magic in Javi’s work, a way of treating everyday noise like soft clay. Years of diving into granular processes, pedals, and the raw geometry of sound have given him a language that feels both intimate and slightly extraterrestrial. The first time we heard him, at Mostra nearly four years ago, he and Alex as .apart made the city feel alive in a way that bordered on surreal, like Barcelona’s neighborhoods were whispering their stories directly into the PA. This new recording carries that same spark but with a deeper sense of curiosity. Close your eyes and you might imagine an alien craft touching down in Ciutat Vella and trying to negotiate with unbothered locals who answer confusion with a casual sax riff. The tension is playful rather than dramatic, a shimmering frequency that settles the body rather than startling it. These thirty-five minutes show an artist who keeps refining how memory becomes texture and how place becomes pulse. It’s a pure joy to include this one in the series, a quiet demonstration of how listening can tilt your sense of place in unexpected ways.
