Our next podcast series comes from Berlin-based Katiusha. Originally from London, Katiusha is known for taking dancefloors on an adventure into all corners of the rave spectrum. With a background in experimental radio and non-profit parties, her taste has always extended far and wide – but her club selections are guided by a love of sleek techno rollers, hi-teck bass impact, and euphoric left turns.

Welcome to the Midgar Records takeover. Celebrating its 10th anniversary this year, the Berlin-based label will be taking over the 909 mix series for the duration of September with a mix running each week from a label affiliate with a full lowdown on the label to accompany the final edition.

Next up is Berlin-via-London DJ and producer Keplrr who released on Midgar Records recently with the glorious 'Plumes' EP featuring a remix from Priori. He's also previously released on Control Freak Recordings and Pressure Dome where he has become known for more forward-thinking broken techno music. In his contribution to the series, Keplrr digs into wriggly, groove-filled soundscapes, creating a perfect early morning or afters soundtrack as it glows throughout. A mixture of head down moments and trippy euphoria.

The concept of this mix is inspired by the artistic technique of chiaroscuro, a term rooted in the Italian words for light (chiaro) and dark (scuro). Chiaroscuro is a style that plays with the contrast between light and shadow, creating depth and drama in visual art. Similarly, this mix explores the dynamic interplay between contrasting elements in sound. As the mix unfolds, it moves through phases of intensity and calm, darkness and light, harsh textures and smooth rhythms. Each transition mirrors the gradual shift from shadow to light, capturing the essence of chiaroscuro in an auditory landscape. The dark, brooding basslines and haunting melodies serve as the "shadows," while the brighter, more uplifting elements cut through like "light," bringing balance and intrigue to the overall experience.
The mix’s energy comes from this contrast, creating a journey that feels both tense and uplifting—like moving through a twilight world where every moment hovers between darkness and light. Hopefully this helps listeners connect with the mix on a deeper level.

Thank you ! The way I build a radio show is slightly different from how I prepare for a live show, though both share the common thread of creating a narrative or storyline. I have a deep obsession with discovering new music, constantly searching for tracks I haven't heard before. I dig through platforms like Bandcamp and Discogs, and working for the bookings and programming at Venue MOT, where I spend most weekends, exposes me to a wide variety of music that I often Shazam. A radio mix, for me, is essentially a curated compilation of my favorite tracks discovered that month. When preparing for a live show, however, I have to consider factors like set time, the venue, and the rest of the lineup. My process involves going through my music library and organising tracks into different folders, always with a clear direction in mind for where I want to take the audience.

At Delayed, we feature a lot of mixes throughout the year, whether through our podcast series or our monthly lists of favorites. But today’s featured mix holds a special place for me, the author.

Let me set the scene. It was June 1st, and our crew was invited to play at the remarkable Above Below Festival in the Chiltern Hills, England. The setting, the people, and the music created an almost dreamlike experience. Connecting with so many like-minded music lovers was genuinely heartwarming. Two DJs though, ANNX and noodle, truly stood out with their performance. After more than 15 years of being indifferent to Dubstep, these two reintroduced it to me in a way that completely blew me away.

I met ANNX and noodle the day before at the festival, and they immediately struck me as warm, genuine, and full of positive energy. What I discovered the next day is that they’re also exceptional DJs. Lifelong friends, ANNX and noodle, despite living in different cities (London and Edinburgh), have been bonded by music since their early years. Both are well-respected in their local scenes; ANNX is a co-founder of the phenomenal Whomp parties in London and AR of Above Below Festival, and noodle is a co-founder of GRDN parties and Subterranean Sound Festival in Edinburgh.

Although they’ve been friends for ages, this was their first public b2b set, and they delivered in a big way. Their smooth, groovy, wicked set at the packed Stone Circle stage was impressive. They radiated such infectious positive energy, and it felt like they had been playing together for years. In a festival filled with talent, ANNX and noodle were the highlight for me. This was my first real introduction to quality dubstep (never late, just delayed ;)), and I’m forever grateful to these two wonderful DJs.

We’re super excited to feature such an outstanding mix here at Delayed!

Berlin-based Katiusha is known for building hi-energy, intricate stories on the dancefloor. With a background in experimental radio and non-profit parties, her taste has always extended far and wide – but her club selections draw heavily on atmospheric rollers, leftfield techno, and UK impact. Flying from hardcore to jungle, techno to dubstep and some ambient nuances; fearlessly barrels through genres with the utmost care and precision - truly one of the tidiest DJs.

This sound has caught the attention of revered venues like FOLD, Tresor, and Berghain’s SÄULE. On air, she's played for Boiler Room, Rinse FM, and Moxie’s semanal NTS show and Festivals like Dimensions and Cosmic Roots. Last year she made a strong entrance onto the production scene with debuts on Peach Discs and Idle Hands: in 2024 she leaned into a more trippy bass sound, releasing on dubstep imprint SPLOT and, more recently, her own label GRACE. The label is a new project for hazy club sonics, with a DIY ethos and producer equity at its core.

Long story short, you can trust Katiusha to provide the best wubs and cosmic rollers, so you don't want to miss this percussive but surrounding mix.

++++plus, Nice to know that she has created some good memories in Paisa lands! Go listen.
