Premieres

Perfectly suited for getting out of winter slumber, “In Praise of The Plant” LP is another gem produced by Brussels-based multi-talented Clément Davout, aka Adhémar. Releasing on Barcelona’s Diffuse Reality Records, the LP features seven original tracks and three remixes from Simone Bauer and Toki Fuko. Presently deep and subtly detailed, the “In Praise of The Plant” is magically breaching the gap between abstract and real by permeating the biomimicry into its sonic canvas. 
We are delighted to premiere the “Radial Symmetry” - one of those tracks with a mighty potential to smoothly carry the groove through the long night by working in unison with the leading muscular beat blended with percussive organics. Tender and confident, it's gradually diverging from an invisible center to steadily branching towards some hazy and oozy nightfall.  

“In Praise of The Plant” LP is coming out on Diffuse Reality Records on March 31, 2021

PREMIERE: Adhémar - Radial Symmetry [Diffuse Reality]

We’re kicking off the new year with the debut self-release from Melbourne-based artist Fefe, whose seven-track mini-LP, Sketches from Memories, drops in just a few days. This release is a reflection of Fefe’s creative journey over the past five years, capturing the evolution of his sound through a thoughtful collection of tracks.
Our premiere today, Ghost Gum, is an evocative piece that blends gentle, textured percussion with earthy synth tones and a haunting saxophone melody. The track conjures the imagery of a ritualistic dance deep within a forest, brimming with otherworldly energy.
Sketches from Memories will be available on Bandcamp starting January 15th.

PREMIERE: Fefe - Ghost Gum

Spiraling melodies and half time tempos spring to the forefront for our premiere today, titled Ravina. Portuguese artists Floating Machine and Inerte have combined talents for a contribution to the Berlin and Lisbon based event series and label, Art Bei Ton. The fifth edition of their VA series, ‘Seeing Cursed Spirits’ will soon be released that showcases a variety of sounds. All nestled within the folds of deep and hypnotic techno.

Ravina evolves, slowly but surely. Each pulse of the percussion brings new life and energy into the air. A soft pad floats in the background, ethereal and ever-shifting, creating a sense of vast space that’s peppered with bright auditory textures giving movement and spontaneity as they jump around the listener. Gradually, voices become more pronounced, their distant melodies forming a loop that seems to repeat and evolve in subtle variations, like a mantra or chant. The panning continues to play with perception, shifting focus gently from one side to the other until the ending moments as each element slowly falls away.

Art Bei Ton’s latest VA will be released on the 16th of January and includes offerings from a diverse set of artists including Viels, PEIX, and Nao Nhil.

Seeing Cursed Spirits

PREMIERE: Floating Machine & Inerte - Ravina [Art Bei Ton]

The third release on Lola Haro’s Small Steps label from Belgium sees German producer DJ Balduin step up with a contribution that embodies the label's sound. Known for his intricate, warm house basslines, clever loops, and breaks, DJ Balduin delivers a three-track EP, Everything, capturing the fleeting magic when light meets dark. Out on Valentine’s Day, 14th February, the release includes the track Somar and will be available in digital and vinyl formats via Bandcamp.

The EP is all about mood and movement. In Somar, DJ Balduin plays with a mixture of rising and melancholic pads, including distant bird chatter and playful loops. A punchy beginning, the tracks mellow into moments of bliss, offering warmth throughout. The interplay of light and dark is palpable and emotive, evoking euphoria reminiscent of sunrise sets at festivals—those moments that shift the tempo and prepare us for another day of dancing.

Small Steps and DJ Balduin captures these intangible moments with its sound: the eye contact on the dancefloor, subtle smiles, and the pull of the kick drum as we sway.

Everything

PREMIERE: DJ Balduin - Somar [Small Steps]

Through overwhelming days and times of strife, an emphasis to look inwards and reflect seems appropriate. Outside stressors abound, almost at every turn it seems as the world claws at your mental stability. Italian producer, dj and more, Simone Gatto’s forthcoming Invisible Love album on his own Pregnant Void imprint marks a response to these negative forces. Giving space, soft moments of introspection and smooth melodies that all lend well to its healing nature.

Like a deep breath, The Secret of Quantum Life slowly begins. In and out, in and out. The meditative nature can’t be ignored, Simone’s background influences coming through in spades as warm tones envelop the listener, accentuated by generative warbles providing movement and spontaneity. As the track progresses, varying swirls and melodic eddies appear, like changes in the wind.

Gatto’s Invisible Love album will be released on the 7th of February.

Invisible Love

PREMIERE: Simone Gatto - The Secret Of Quantum Life [Pregnant Void]

Time flies—what started as a platform to spotlight music we love has reached an incredible milestone: our 500th premiere. Over the years, we've witnessed trends emerge, evolve, and transform into something entirely new. Within these 500 premieres, we've featured a kaleidoscope of styles and genres, but at the heart of it all, the music has always been deep, introspective, and original—an authentic reflection of the artists who create it.
We're thrilled to present Ojalá by Dutch artist Love Over Entropy for this special occasion. Taken from the long-awaited album "To Sit Quietly Where Everything Is Moving Fast," set to be released via Something Happening Somewhere, this track radiates optimism and quiet determination—qualities that feel perfectly encapsulated in its title.
Ojalá unfolds with gentle confidence, its uplifting keys and delicate arpeggiator lines moving together like a conversation that flows without effort. There's an understated elegance here—a lightness that never veers into excess. Each element breathes in unison, giving the track a natural, organic momentum.
The word ojalá, with its roots in hope and possibility, feels like a guiding principle for the music. It's as if Love Over Entropy has captured that sentiment and translated it into sound: a wish carried forward, subtle but powerful.
With this milestone premiere, we're reminded of why we started this platform: to share moments like this, where music connects us not just to each other but to something more profound.
Here's to the next 500 premieres—and to Ojalá, a track that reminds us of the beauty in looking forward.

PREMIERE: Love Over Entropy - Ojalá [SoHaSo]

Saphileaum (Andro Gogibedashvili) is the new face of Diffuse Reality, the Georgian producer debuts on the Spanish-Argentine label with an extensive release in which the author himself provides 7 original tracks, and DJ Sodeyama and Filip Xavi finish off this great work with two excellent adaptations.

In Industrial Complexx we are pleased to share with all of you the version of the Japanese artist. Both he and Filip Xavi remix 'Garden of Prophecy'.

Release date: June 15th, 2019.

Premiere: Shaphileaum - Garden Of Prophecy (DJ Sodeyama Remix) [Diffuse Reality]

Today we are premiering a track made by the mysterious artist SMforma, expected to be released on Barcelona's groundbreaking label Diffuse Reality.

Slow and torturing, fuelled by the intense and dark vocals, that slowly initiate the listener to a bizarre and unpredictable ceremony, where anything is possible. "Giliau ne garsas" is an incantation, a lithuanian spell that takes us deep into the world of a desired madness, in which you enter but you cannot escape.

Slow, persistent kicks marking a powerful territory, ready to receive the "EBM" storm of distortion and synths, falling from the sky like a heavy rain; a perfect intro of an EP that will enrich our collection as well as our psyche. Including remixes of the Exaltics, Years of Denial, Squaric, Yuji Kondo.

The reasoning of the soul

0305

TL Premiere : Jauzas The Shining - 0305 [Diffuse Reality Records]

Jauzas The Shining stars in the new release of Diffuse Reality with a solo album in which the French producer exposes his particular vision of electro, a style that is beginning to have more and more weight in the Spanish-Argentinean label, and that adds to the growing progression and evolution of the platform in which it includes a more extensive range of genres that covers much more than the aggressive sound that so represented this project in its first stage.

Jauzas The Shining recently collaborated on Diffuse Reality with a remix of one of the tracks from Meltphace's album. Now, it is the Frenchman who takes the lead role with a reference that includes 5 original tracks and 3 different remixes of Synthèse by Daniele Paduano, Lenson & FSQ.

From Industrial Complexx we give you a preview of one of these versions, you can already listen to the whole track that closes this album.

Release date: February 1st, 2020.

Premiere: Jauzas The Shining - Synthèse (FSQ remix) [Diffuse Reality]

'Kiss Me Quick' is a raw 808-driven tour de force that puts the listener into a race car's cockpit that storms down the Autobahn. Its dubby bassline and flickering synth paired with 808 hi-hats and claves create raw energy that will conquer dancefloors worldwide.

PREMIERE: Emeline - Kiss Me Quick [ÆX]

Today we are premiering a way out from the winter melancholy offered by a German producer and Super Tuff affiliate Tilman in his signature jazzy house spin onto Vaughan’s original “If I’d Been More Smart.”  Coming on a two-track single, Tilman’s remix is a dancefloor-friendly injection of the summery glee and cheering warmth, serving an ideal remedy for the dreadful and unsettling winter. The Fine label head adds a warm tape drift to the piano sample and lays it atop a chunky, MPC-driven house groove, effortlessly creating an irresistibly friendly and careless vibe.  

M. Vaughan “If I'd Been More Smart” (Tilman Remix) is out on January 22. on Super Tuff Records

PREMIERE: M. Vaughan - If I'd Been More Smart (Tilman Remix) [Super Tuff]

As release notes for the entire compilation starkly state in the beginning, “these are strange times and it looks like the whole world is going crazy”. Indeed! And my mind, when faced with fear, anxiety and uncertainty about the future, quickly rushes to my happy place. My happy place is a summer festival…thousands of people dancing, hugging, frantically waving their glow sticks, sucking on a pacifier and thrashing about in their ridiculously wide pants. Ok, ok… my happy place is a 90’s rave..guilty as charged! But have you ever danced to Underworld on a warm summer night? If you want to know that feels, you don’t have to dig for that Underworld CD. Just cue Vril and His Master’s Voice’s “Cryosleep”. 30 seconds into that track and you’ll think Bill Clinton is still in office and those raver pants are a thing of beauty. That track is a time machine! We have all the raver era boxes checked: breakbeat, happy heavy synth, perfect drive, and even Underworld-like spoken word are bellowing in the background. If you are old enough to remember, you WILL do a happy dance; if you have the misfortune of being too young, slip the track to your grandpa and watch him start working his cane like a glow stick.

‘Cryosleep’ is a part of ‘Solidarity Is a Weapon’, the 19-track charity compilation set to be released via Turnland on February 5th. All proceedings will go to Rote Hilfe E.V organization. So who is “Rote Hilfe E.V.” and why does the money made with this compilation go to them? This organization puts the main focus on the financial and legal support of left activists who face repression in Germany and helps antifascists who are searching for political asylum in Germany.

PREMIERE: VRIL & His Master's Voice as Adderall - Cryosleep [Turnland]

Danza Nativa, a Buenos Aires-based label, continues a phenomenal streak of releases with the debut album from young French producer Olorun. 'Indirect Image' sees Olorun drawing inspiration from his trip to South America, using exciting field recordings from the jungle, which, paired with tribal rhythms, create a wonderful atmosphere that is both driving and calming.
'Iridescence,' our premiere for today, is a beautifully crafted journey with subtle, ethereal pads that immaculately blend with field recordings, gentle percussions, and pulsating sub-bass. Imagine, 7 am, at party in the middle of the jungle, the Sun is up, you have the biggest smile on your face with your arms in the air, and this track is wrapping up what was the party to remember forever. I can totally see it.

'Indirect Image' LP and in turn 'Iridescence' are being released on February 15 via Danza Nativa.

PREMIERE Olorun - Iridescence [Danza Nativa]

Guido Camino, AKA Forest on Stasys, has already started 2021 strong after releasing his Ancestral Lineage EP on Lowless Music at the end of January. The Argentinian artist is about to release another four-track batch on the 19th of February, this time on the Czech imprint Harmony Rec. The release features two original tracks, and two remixes, one by Shoal, and one by Alfred Czital.

Today Delayed is happy to premiere Ofrenda - the A2 track. The Danza Nativa owner starts out the tribal track with a massive kick, a playful bassline, and a celestial synth pad. Tension builds as the track progresses, eventually segueing into a beautiful breakdown before the track reignites and goes back into full blast. This one will surely be the highlight moment of many parties when the time comes.

'Mantrum' EP is coming out on February 19th via Harmony Rec.
