RADIO.D59B / DEEPARTMENT - Spring #2 w/ Claudio PRC & Romi

Our platform has a strong connection with the vibrant Dutch scene. The sheer number of talented producers, DJs, and people interested in electronic music, in general, is astonishing. Making your talent stand out in that 'environment' is quite challenging, but when your skill is noticed, it must be for a reason. Our guest today, Bas Dobbelaer, has many reasons to be noticed. He's an incredibly talented producer and razor-sharp DJ with broad music knowledge but, first and foremost, a charismatic person and fun to be around. 

From our party with the dear SoHaSo crew back in 2018, when Bas and his comrade Viktor aka Vand, played a fabulous ambient set, until today, numerous outstanding releases, remixes, podcasts, and parties are under Bas' belt, and he's become one of the prominent figures in the Amsterdam's underground music scene. 

In light of Bas' and Vand's upcoming remix package on SoHaSo, which features works by Ultrastation, Donato Dozzy, Shoal, Gal Tsadok-Hai, and Marco Shuttle, we are happy to welcome Bas back here at Delayed. This time with a crème de la crème mix that is hypnotic in the word's true meaning. 
Deep and atmospheric with immaculate programming and seamless mixing, this mix has been on repeat in the past few days here at Delayed, and we are sure that the same destiny awaits you. A pure class from Bas!

Live sketches for a Son Of Chi live set in Athens, November 16, 17th 2024.
https://www.instagram.com/p/DBTh9jxNTNy  

A mix of edited Son Of Chi tracks and new works in progress, including upcoming collabs with Kain The Poet, Jim Tetlow, Radboud Mens, Daniel Danieli, Clara Brea & Menhir, Omar Ka, Kaiyumi and more.

Son Of Chi: I always make live sketches. This time for my performance in Athens (scroll down for more info). Not sure if I will stick to them, but they give the right impression of the atmosphere i would like to create. The opening words by Kain The Poet reflect the times we live in and the challenges we are facing. I will end with a piece from “The Fifth World Recordings”.  

According to the Hopi prophecies we are now living in the transition years, moving from the fourth world into the fifth world. As they say: “times of earthquakes, floodings, fires, pandemics and wars”. The Hopi believe that in this period you need to be careful where you stay, who you stay with and what you do. Keep practising the holy rituals. Respect nature, the earth, the universe and be good to your fellowmen and all living creatures.

As the Hopi say the fifth world  “represents a spiritual awakening, an evolution in understanding the interconnectedness of all beings and the universe”. We are in the middle of this transition. All we can do is stick to our rituals.

Or as Hazrat Inayat Khan says: “The further we advance, the more difficult and the more important becomes our part in the symphony of life. The more conscious we are of this responsibility, the more efficient we become in accomplishing our task”.

Sketches For Athens

I first heard Binomi, the Catalan duo of Joan Gila and Jordi Aparicio, almost two years ago at the Mostra festival. Their set left a lasting impression on me. They delivered a masterfully curated ambient and experimental DJ set, all on vinyl. Usually, I don’t focus too much on the medium, but there’s something about spinning experimental music on vinyl that takes an extraordinary level of dedication and artistry. It’s like watching a film come to life in real-time.

Over the years, I’ve been fortunate enough to get to know Joan and Jordi beyond their music. I’m proud to call them friends. We’ve spent countless hours together on the dancefloor, talking about everything and nothing, always learning more about their endless vinyl hunts. Their passion for digging through crates is something I’ll never stop admiring. Both are integral to the Mostra crew and resident DJs for Mostradio (alongside Javi).

As they prepare for the next season of their radio residency, Binomi has graciously shared their recording from Simbiosis Festival in Seville - an event we had the pleasure of collaborating on last year. This set was their opening performance, and here at Delayed, we have a special affection for opening sets. They’re a unique challenge and demand a different kind of energy. True to form, this one is different in the best way.

The first half of their set is bold and thought-provoking yet mellow and inviting, with an experimental ambient flow that feels unfamiliar and soothing. Gradually, it shifts gears, easing into deep, dubby, low-slung techno, just in time to welcome the first dancers with open arms and warm rhythms. Joan and Jordi have crafted something that isn’t just memorable; it’s the kind of set you’ll want to revisit often, and we’re pretty sure it’ll find its way into your regular rotation.

It’s a true privilege to feature these two talented artists and all-around wonderful humans in our next edition of “Delayed with…”.
So, press play, and let this beautiful journey, recorded under the Andalusian sun, carry you away. 



This is what Binomi said about the set:
" When Doctrina Natura and Halos invited us to play at Simbiosis, they expressed their desire for us to create a sort of turning point, symbolizing the start of a new day. That’s when we decided to craft this set with a shared, overarching goal: to generate a sense of relaxation or a calm atmosphere. We divided it into two distinct parts: the first hour being ambient with experimental elements, atmospheric, tranquil, and delicate, while the second part featured downtempo beats, still maintaining that overall goal, but allowing space for the day to restart with more rhythmic sets to follow. This is the result of a morning beginning in a hidden place in Andalusia - Simbiosis, from which we have fantastic memories. We hope you enjoy it."

Delayed with... Binomi (at Simbiosis Festival 2024)

We are delighted to begin the year with a mix from ASIP (Ryan Griffin), the founder of A Strangely Isolated Place - a label and mix series that has become a cornerstone for contemporary ambient music. Inviting him felt long overdue, and we couldn’t be happier to share this contribution from someone whose work continually inspires us. For this mix, Ryan delved into musical memories, crafting a journey filled with nostalgia and influences. As he beautifully puts it:

"Thank you, Mareen, for the invite to your series. This mix is full of nostalgia, some Balearic undertones, and classic approaches to ambient electronic music, without an agenda. It starts to speak to some major influences on me over the years. Growing up on 90's electronic music, influential summers in Europe, and the formative years of early 00's IDM and electronica. If Unrush is self-described as 'a serene space within the mind that is free from the encumbering stresses of daily life,' then this is music that always helps me get there."

Ryan’s contribution is a heartfelt journey through time, marked by the sounds that have shaped him and continue to inspire, perfectly embodying the unrushed ethos. Let yourself drift and enjoy... ❤️

Twinkling Stars

Hailing from Naples and well-known as one half of @naturalelectronicsystem, Antonio Giova is a selector and producer of unparalleled talent and vision. Over the course of a career spanning over 1.5 decades, and which includes a tight relationship with the esteemed record label @tikitarec, a collaboration with @neel, and key performances at festivals such as Labyrinth (@mindgameslaby), @wakinglifeportugal and @parallelfestival, Antonio has developed a unique sense of texture, atmosphere and narrative which glows deeply in both his productions and his mixes.

Based on his set from our Winter Edition party at ://about.blank in late-February 2020, Antonio let his intuition guide him with this Patterns of Perception 60. The outcome is somehow both raw and seamless, a vignette of ethereal proportions: eternal and infinite, timeless and dimensionless.
