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."

Sundays are for... [May/25]

HYBRID 04 with @pattrn_dj co-head of the label @initiate_concept and head of Incidence Studio

Sonic experiments derived from syncopated rhythms, intricately crafted ambiences, and patiently evolving textures, Pattrn’s work as a producer is rooted to the perception of time and space. Playing violin since the age of four and later on majoring in both acousmatic music composition and sound engineering, Pattrn’s precision is the fruit of a lifelong dedication to music of all forms, from creation in itself or through his implications in Brussels’ scene.  Beyond the years of technical know-how and self improvement in production, DJing, and live sets, Brice Deloose aka Pattrn has been an active member of the local scene for quite some time. Cocreator of FTRSND, Brussels By Night Federation, Initiate, as well as having been the artistic director of Fuse club, Pattrn has spent much of his time promoting local artists and collectives to push forward Brussels' underground.  Having shared the decks with the likes of Luke Slater, Luigi Tozzi, Claudio PRC, Kangding Ray, Svreca, and many more, Pattrn uses his sets to impose his world of seamless hypnotic music to lure passionates for always one last dance.

HYBRID 04 - Pattrn (Initiate)

"The maestro takes his seat, glasses on, guiding the light across the hidden corners of his frequency library. Perfectly woven layers drift and evolve — minimal, restrained, dark in tone, brilliant in execution. In the cabin, every mind floats, someone slips in a field recording, blurring the edges between inside and out. The light gently rises, and as everything fades, the birds come knocking at the door."


Madrid-based DJ and producer Alfonso Pomeda, aka F-on (@f-ondj), is renowned for his experimental sound, blending dub, ambient, and experimental music. Founder of the Alpenglühen project and co-owner of Antimatter, he and his team run the club and festival Espacio Perpendicular, curate Barcelona's Mostra Festival and Les Chaos Ambiants, and perform at top global venues like Paral·lel, Vurt, Laut or Gare. His vinyl DJ sets take listeners on a rhythmic, dreamlike journey.

HOCast #248 - F-on - Perpendicular 2025

The haze of Paral·lel festival has barely lifted, but we’re rewinding to another moment worth lingering on, February in Granada, at the Moonback club. There, under the warm glow of the Extramostra banner, Mostra linked up with the Klub Collective for a night that balanced local soul with an international touch. The lineup reads like a heads-only dream: Timnah, Antonio Vázquez, Refracted, and a solid core of Klub Collective residents including Fran Acosta, Kaizen, and Utopian. The kind of night that reminded us why the first slot matters more than most people admit. It’s the architectural role: shaping the night’s flow from zero.

Utopian did just that. His set unfolds like a slow exhale, dub-laced ambient that creeps, swells, and gradually transforms into chugging, low-slung techno hypnosis. It’s a patient climb: syncopated, restrained, precise. Not a single cheap move, just deep focus and floor logic, the kind that sets the table without stealing the meal. But make no mistake, this was a statement. A warm-up that didn’t just support the night, but elevated it.

Delayed with... Utopian

There’s a special kind of trust when a festival makes someone a resident. For Les Chaos Ambiants, that someone is Lynne. We’ve partnered with this boutique French festival for the second year, sharing the sounds and stories behind their lakeside weekend in the wooded hills of Sommant. The festival thrives on curation that feels personal, lineups that move like chapters in a book, sound systems tuned to catch every detail, and a setting where the air itself seems to carry the low-end.

Lynne embodies that approach. Originally from Japan and now based in London, she’s built a reputation on mixing low-lit atmospheres with rhythm patterns that shift just as you think you’ve caught them. Her triumphant comeback to our podcast series finds her opening the spectrum: warmer tones, space between the beats, a subtle dub pulse, and even flickers of jazz phrasing. Yet the structural backbone remains hers, breaks that fold time and pacing that keeps you just ahead of the next turn. It’s not a departure, it's more like a widening of the frame, perfectly in sync with the spirit of Les Chaos Ambiants.

Delayed x Les Chaos Ambiants: Lynne

EMC stands for Electronic Music Culture. A podcast series, music network, and collective of DJs. EMC explores ambient, experimental, deep, dub techno, etc and with Shapes series they focus on more dancefloor oriented stories. To showcase the full spectrum of their musical interests they have made an extended show this month. A deep incursion by Synthbiont & Anassimandrus consisting only of their own productions followed by a colourful cascade of house, prog and tech house numbers spun by Vinylkite.

FLOWER BROADCAST SYSTEMS INVITES EMC - 2 AUG 25 AIR

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

We all have core memories of special dancefloor moments. Audience fully hypnotised, beating as one, lost in the music. Pure instinct, and the wildest spirit within each one shining through. Some artists have an uncanny ability to channel that. And today we present 2 masters at making those moments happen, via Perpendicular Festival 2025. Part of the Ouroboros takeover on Friday night, their performance at the event was one for the books. 

Toé, one of the minds behind EWO collectif and the Ouroboros project, has been mesmerising audiences with some stellar performances. A testament to it was her set just a couple days ago on her home turf, when we witnessed her sorcery at the peak of it's powers. With music that taps into the most feral and primal, it's hard to explain the purity of the feelings she conveys with her mixes. One thing is for sure, Toé has an ability to get your inner animal manifest on the dancefloor. 

Vardae needs no introduction at this point. His releases on Samurai Music or Non Series have established him in that "timeless" space of music creators. One to blame for the expansion on half time and dnb sounds into new psychedelic territory. Vardae is at the very front of a movement that unites breaks, tribe, trancey sounds and techno energy into a new irresistible ritual. His live performance gets better every time, and he turned Ouroboros upside down a couple of days ago. 

Together, you can only imagine what these magicians summon with their sonic potions. And Perpendicular was the cauldron in which their perfect mix took shape. Impossible drum patterns, enchanting atmospheres and their particular flare for transcendental sounds. Combined, these two take their wizardry to the highest levels. 

We couldn't be happier to host these two beloved artists, friends and amazing creatives. Inspiring humans that we always wanted to have in our channel. Infinite gratitude to Melu, Cedric, and the Perpen team for letting us host this piece of musical history. This is HUGE.

Toki Fuko Live @ Gazgolder, MIXED [24.03.18]

Passion, obsession and addiction. For Dubtechno, Progressive, House and all kind of deep music. Thats what "Smooth" is about.

Beside my other music projects "New Age Hippies" (Psytrance), "Smooth Genestar" (Lounge/Downbeat) and "Tenonaki" (Techno/Tech House), i established "Smooth" back in 2006 as project to research in Dubtechno, Deep House, Garage House, UK House and Progressive, as these styles have been important influences over the bygone years.

My intention is to fuse elements and phrases of these different styles, to create this special kind of flow and to ignore musical borders. Therefore, i fuse beautiful and lively pads with dubby chords and elements of Trance, Progressive Trance and House. 

Beside producing and mastering, i operate the free audio netlabel "CYAN" in cooperation with Jaja. If you like as many different music genres as i do, expect to find further unique releases there for free.
