Donato Dozzy at The Labyrinth 2014.

Venue: Naeba Greenland, Gunma, Japan.

-----

To celebrate 20 years of building Labyrinths, we have decided to release one set from each of the last ten years. I've chosen ten timeless moments that both document the history of the event and provide a historical snapshot of underground electronic music over the past ten years.

We have chosen a broad range--from closing techno sets, to morning ambient sets, to experimental sets to close the night. Each set represents a different side of the event. Taken together, they present a portrait of a decade of music.

The Labyrinthの20周年を記念して、過去10年間を振り返り、それぞれの年からひとつのミックスをピックアップすることにしました。イベントの歴史を記録すると同時に、過去10年間のアンダーグラウンドエレクトロニックミュージックの歴史的なスナップショットを提供します。今聞いても色褪せない、タイムレスな極上のミックスをお楽しみください。

テクノのクロージングセットから、朝のアンビエントセット、そして夜を締めくくるエクスペリメンタルセットまで幅広いセレクトですが、どのセットもThe Labyrinthの欠かせない側面を表しており、ここ10年におけるエレクトロニック ミュージックの全容とも言えるでしょう。

For our 23rd installment, it's with great excitement that we welcome Georgian and Berlin-based artist Irakli, one of the finest selectors of the German capital and founder of the infamous STAUB techno parties.

Irakli embarks us here on a journey to a space that defies time and logic, where reality blurs between past, future, and the unknown. This mix is a surreal soundtrack to an imaginary voyage where nothing is as it seems. Is it a futuristic game or a dream from another universe?

Conscious Listening Mix Series - 23 - Irakli

This week on “Delayed with…”, we’re featuring matsssiii, a Zurich-based DJ and one of the core members of the Project Indigo collective and label. Project Indigo isn’t just another name in the scene—it’s a group we’ve grown to know and respect, built on shared nights (and days) on the dancefloor and a commitment to music that prioritizes feeling and quality over fleeting trends.
matsssiii’s mix has a rare versatility, fitting seamlessly into all kinds of settings. It’s deep and well-paced, with a lightness that never drifts into the shallow. Somehow, it strikes that perfect balance—grounded yet weightless, soothing yet never dull. Whether zoning in on a task or gazing at a sunset, this mix feels like it was made for the moment.
The music unfolds like a quiet narrative, with grooves that pull you in and atmospheric layers that let your mind wander. The rhythms feel tactile and earthy, while the melodies have a spacious, dreamlike quality that’s hard to pin down. It’s the kind of sound that doesn’t just accompany your day—it subtly transforms it.
At Delayed, this is exactly what we look for: music that lingers in your mind, carrying its energy well beyond the final track. It’s a deep, dubby house that feels timeless—not because it’s chasing permanence, but because it’s rooted in something genuine.

A live recording of Steve Good opening the final day at The Labyrinth 2019. This was the Typhoon Hagabis year, an event that began and ended with storms, with a sunny respite in between. This set represented a moment of calm before the storms returned on that special weekend which we will never forget.

The Labyrinth 2019 - Steve Good

Avsluta (Lucie Stepankova) moves with quiet precision, tracing the lines between ambient stillness and rhythmic motion. As a London-based sound artist, DJ, live performer, and curator, she explores the spaces where sound lingers and transforms.

Her set at Mostra Festival 2023 left a lasting impression. A seamless journey through moods and tempos, carried with effortless elegance. It felt only right to invite her to Unrush, and now here we are finally.

For this mix, Lucie dives into deeper ambient landscapes, showing the same thoughtful sensitivity that shapes her work. Over the past decade, Lucie has refined her musical voice behind the counter at Phonica Records, guiding London’s ambient and downtempo seekers most Saturdays, building connections, sharing music, and fostering community along the way.

She’s the founder of Introspective Electronics, a platform for radio shows, guest mixes, and listening events. Together with producer and DJ Alicia, she also curates Terra Obscura, an intimate club night series devoted to slower, introspective sounds.

This DJ set holds that same spirit: a quiet invitation to slow down and listen...

something also nothing.

A progressive breaks glitch track built on syncopated kicks and jagged mid-bass layers. Sparse melodic shards flicker between the fractured percussion while tension builds and collapses in waves. Heavy groove and dark textures collide—precise, angular, and unrelenting.
