gta 6 got delayed again

Columbian-based label, From A Lost Place is no stranger to us here at Delayed. Since 2018 the imprint run by founder, Launaea has been a consistent presence in the ambient, deep and experimental musical worlds that we are so fond of. With past releases including notable names like Zemög, Claudio PRC, Launaea himself, and a few monster compilations, there’s something for everyone in their rich backlog.

Marking a new direction for the label, the latest forthcoming release, titled ‘parasympathetic’ finds us listening to a glittering five tracker by the German artist, YYARD. Bright melodies abound as the label states, ‘perfect definition of the artist's eclecticism, blending groove and jazz influences with very meticulous rhythms, rich and organic percussions perfectly suited for the dance floor’.

'apnoe', the second to final track on the release, takes a darker approach, compared to the emotional highs of, say, Endless Summers. A full-sounding synth lead takes center stage as it grows and grows, while snappy percussion plays throughout, providing that proper groove and infectious movement. Tracks like these are ear worms and proper for a warmup session.

'apnoe', and in turn ‘parasympathetic’ will be released on November 20th.

PREMIERE: YYARD - apnoe [From A Lost Place]

For today’s premiere we have the return of the poison dart frog aka GIFKIKKER, the Belgian imprint with whom we spoke a few months ago for our Label Spotlight series. Known for having a razor sharp, psychedelic edge as well as a deep connection to the natural world, they takes things in a softer direction this time with some light & airy drum & bass. You never quite know what to expect from the collective but they work hard to create a common thread of atmospheric consistency which really shows. They’re also committed to showcasing local talent bubbling within the Belgian scene.

The 4-track EP is the debut from Belgian newcomer Blossoms Overnight. The first track on the release, ‘Aumira’, is a beautiful deep breath of ambience with sparse, floaty breakbeats peppered throughout & a steady dubby groove. It’s a track for those moments when the sun just starts to come up over the horizon in the early hours of the morning, ushering in warmth & the promise of a new day. The EP includes a remix from a fellow Belgian artist a.brehme which was premiered recently by our friends over at Oslated.

‘GIFKIKKER011’ is set to release digitally on November 14th.

PREMIERE: Blossoms Overnight - Aumira [GIFKIKKER]



Music travels faster than ever, yet the connections that shape it still depend on patience. Sense of the Substrate, the new release from our own Griff Fulton under his Aspetuck alias, feels like the result of that slow exchange. Out on Konstrukt, the Nijmegen label that has built its identity around subtle consistency, the kind of releases where artwork, sound, and intention all seem to breathe the same air. Aspetuck’s latest record fits naturally into that lineage. Following his standout LP on Oslated earlier this year, Griff returns with a five-track EP that combines warmth, precision, and patience into a sound that feels unmistakably his own.

The record moves through slower tempos and unforced grooves, where rhythm has room to stretch and melody can take its time to unfold. Our premiere, “Subterranean Rhizome,” sits right in that zone, a track that glows rather than burns. It opens with interlaced percussion and a gentle breakbeat that sets a calm propulsion, gradually joined by flickering chords that rise like light through shallow water. Every element feels hand-shaped, balanced between the tangible and the ethereal. By the time the main riff arrives, you’re already somewhere else entirely, in that rare headspace where the body listens and the mind moves.

Sense of the Substrate arrives November 21 on Konstrukt, available digitally and on vinyl. It’s another chapter in a story that values connection over noise and craft over speed, the kind of record that reminds you why physical formats, and the people behind them, still matter.

PREMIERE: Aspetuck - Subterranean Rhizome [Konstrukt]

After a series of podcasts in recent months, the new London-based imprint Ebbs & Flows presents its inaugural release: Owl’s Spectral Shadows. The record feels like an artist and a label meeting on the same wavelength, both drawn to subtle tension and to spaces where rhythm holds its breath. Owl has always had a way of turning minimal means into emotional weight, and this release extends that curiosity into something more cinematic, but never indulgent.

Our premiere, “Infinite Dusk,” is the shadow at the edge of that world. It moves with the patience of fog drifting through an empty dockyard - rhythm suspended in its own breath, melody folded into vapor. The halftime pulse anchors an atmosphere thick with suggestion: faint strings flicker like reflections on water, while metallic cries echo in the distance. It’s a track that lives in the moment before something happens, and lingers there just long enough to make you feel it might.

Infinite Dusk and the rest of the Spectral Shadows EP are coming out on November 27.

PREMIERE: Owl - Infinite Dusk [Ebbs & Flows]

With a full year behind us since our last release on Delayed’s own Never Late, we’re proud to welcome French artist Gëinst to the platform with his ‘Hiber Trace’ EP. We first discovered the music of Gëinst through mutual friends & upon that initial discovery, were immediately intrigued by his musical ecosystem. A prolific yet incredibly humble artist, he has had releases on labels such as Lowless with a superb split EP earlier this year with Simone Bauer, his Into The Valley EP on Souleiman & Foreign Material’s label Norite, a string of releases with Sub Accent’s label Accents, appearances on Emmanuel’s ARTS & a few recent compilation inclusions on Lithuanian platform Area 127 & Ina Kacz’s Aneelhi Rec. His sound has grown & evolved significantly over the years, as he remains in constant motion, continuously refining his process in the studio. 

We were lucky enough to meet Gëinst in person for the first time earlier this year, at our favorite Mostra Festival back in April. We shared some special times together in the cavernous Vall d’Hebron Olympic Pavilion, a place we’re so eager to return to again next year, in only a few months. It’s a pleasure to welcome Gëinst into our growing family, a fairly new but already dear friend of ours because of those powerful dancefloor experiences. It brings my mind back to that spark that led to the creation of Never Late, an inspired moment on a Brooklyn dancefloor a few years back. 

The ‘Hiber Trace’ EP, for those of us in the Northern Hemisphere, feels perfectly paired with the crisp winter mornings we have ahead of us - cold & sharp, beautiful & pristine, fierce & unforgiving, like shards of ice moving through a body of water. The title track grabs your attention right away, every sound thoughtfully distorted & processed subtly with effects, a steady rhythm you find your head moving back & forth to no matter how many times you listen to it. The tension builds ever so slowly & then that beautiful, enticing snare appears & stays with you for the entire journey. As soon as those melodic sequences come in, you’re hooked & the track cruises at altitude for just over 9 minutes. 

For our 4th release on Never Late, Gëinst presents his 6-track ‘Hiber Trace’ EP, released digitally on December 5th.

PREMIERE: Gëinst - Hiber Trace [Never Late]

Beloved Berlin imprint Kizen Records expands its 2025 account with another long player, this time sliding into the slow burn of dub. Lunar Cycles is the latest chapter in the ever-expanding catalog of Lithuanian producer Tadeuš Jatkevič, better known as Akmuo, whose recent years have been a steady drift through every shade of delay, echo, and negative space. His new album doesn’t chase reinvention so much as deepen the craft. It moves like someone walking familiar streets at a different hour, recognizing the contours while noticing new colors in the shadows. Across ten tracks, Akmuo shifts tempo and density yet holds the same suspended atmosphere, letting each piece behave like a different facet of the same mineral. The result feels almost didactic in the best way, a primer on how dub can stretch across forms without losing its pulse.

Our premiere today, Life, is part of the album’s closing pair alongside Lunar 2. It’s a fast mover on paper, deep in the 140s, yet carries itself with a softness that defies the number. Two dub chords orbit each other in slow rotation, drifting in and out of alignment while the four to the floor anchors their dance. Percussion gathers in small increments, never announcing a shift yet constantly nudging the track forward. The background hiss blurs the edges, turning the whole thing into a kind of illuminated fog. It’s a fitting endpoint: energetic, restrained, and quietly luminous. 

Lunar Cycles arrives November 28 on cassette and digital formats.

PREMIERE: Akmuo - Life [Kizen Records]

Unrushed and enjoying life slowly in Berlin since 2016. U N R U S H is an experiment in sound and ambience, created to facilitate moments where you can find calm in your mind, when the world can encourage you to fast forward, blink and miss some of the beauty. Atmosphere through audio can help us reduce stress, stimulate ideas and creativity or just relax and soak in what’s around us. The label and podcast series is applauded by artists across corners of the electronic music scene, and their contributions are an insight to the music we all need, when we aren’t living life in the fast lane. Where we can find inner peace, clarity and embrace reflection.

Unrush maintains such a nice, measured pace that they continue to release on tape, a taste of the 80s. This physical medium captures a point in time, yet still holds a vital place today and in the future. This December sees their 6th overall release and their third on the tape format with 7 tracks: The Unrush Tapes 03 with Chie Otomi / Daniel[i] & Lukas Freisem.

In Aachen, Germany, Daniel[i] and Lukas Freisem have long been musical comrades, but this release on Unrush is their first official collaboration, in addition to being Lukas Freisem’s debut release. Daniel[i] is a name we love to see on any lineup or upcoming release, thanks to his work on Mojuba, Muzan Editions, and his own platform, Whispering Signals. Over the weekend, my music partner, Jake (Passaat), and I opened with his track 'En Trance' at a Pintai event in London — another example of the ambient brilliance in Daniel[i]'s locker, warming the room exactly the way we intended. I first discovered Lukas Freisem's talent at La Nature Festival in 2024, where his all-vinyl morning set—delivered with impeccable class, elegance, and a warm smile and sway — absolutely blew me away, top vibe. Finding out he was a mind and digger behind the operations at Tam Tam Records in Aachen solidified it: an incredible DJ, and now I can now say he is also an incredible producer, too.

Crackles, distortion. It feels timeless. Their sound flirts with rhythm, it wants to get going, but instead, it remains patient, a solid foundation. Above this foundation, layers of ebb and flow. These ebbs and flows come as long, inhaled pauses, hazy chords, and a gentle expansion and retraction, like soft breathing. It’s on Unrush, you get the picture, it’s gentle and facilitates the perfect focus for any time of day.

‘The Unrush Tapes 03’ is released digitally & on cassette on December 5th.

PREMIERE: Daniel[i] & Lukas Freisem - Too many Winds [Unrush]

From Wikipedia:
"Catostylus mosaicus is also known as the jelly blubber or blue blubber jellyfish. The jelly blubber is distinguishable by its colour, which ranges from light blue to a dark blue or purple, and its large (250-300mm), rounded bell which pulses in a staccato rhythm. It occurs along the coastline of Eastern Australia in estuaries and shallow bays, and often blooms to high abundance."

A track belonging to the "Jellies" playlist:
Inspired by a visit to the National Aquarium. Enjoy!
Special thanks to Jason for some samples and inspiration.

Congratulations are in store as the Italian imprint Pregnant Void marks their 20th release via a phenomenal LP from the Berlin based, Toxido Mask. With prior contributions on Semantica, Art Bei Ton, and Futurepast; the Tresor resident’s latest offering titled ‘Spirit Waters’ is a welcome addition and her first, furthering the label's commitment to contemporary music with an experimental edge. Coming in at eight tracks, six originals and two remixes by Ina Kacz, and Nadia Struiwigh respectively, the release maintains a transformative and introspective theme throughout as each track unfurls slowly and intentionally without pressure. Providing those moments of solitude and space to experience the surrounding sounds.

Falling in the middle of the release, Spirit Guide is the beginning of the exhale to the inhale that is the first half of Spirit Waters. Listening from cover to cover, there’s a subtle uplifting feeling in the first three tracks, the melodies ethereal, all channeling a sense of anticipation. Spirit Guide rises softly from the depths, its synths working overtime as they seemingly engulf and wash over the listener through the whole spectrum of frequencies. From the warmth of the low end to the spacey highs and glittering accents and tribalistic drum patterns, each element intertwines and works seamlessly with each other.

Spirit Waters will be released on the 5th of December.

Spirit Waters

PREMIERE: Toxido Mask - Spirit Guide [Pregnant Void]

A stranger to none in our corner of the musical world, Qeone has quickly become one of those must listen labels for each release that comes by our proverbial desks. Fantastic sound design, jazz-like tempos and improvisation mean molds are constantly being broken and rebuilt in the artists’ imagination. This focus on experimentation and fresh ears has laid the groundwork for a hotbed of creativity. A label is very much a reflection of those that run it, to the surprise of none Polygonia aka Lindsey Wang heads the imprint, and I can’t think of a better example of this concept. Simply her production chops, curatorial skills, work ethic, and attention to detail are all constantly on display with this project. Not even to mention the artwork, which she also creates for each release.

For Qeone’s sixth and final release of 2025, Lindsey looks to Mexico City via Berlin based Viiaan and her forthcoming EP titled ‘Taiko’. Japanese for drum, the four tracker is a raucous affair, with bright percussion leading the way through syncopated tempos and an upbeat energetic atmosphere that gets the body moving.

Rounding out the EP is Azkhar, a four minute wild ride through esoteric melodies and what seems like a molding of genres. Is it half-time, is it breaks, is it tribal bass, who knows. The results speak for themselves as heavy bass elements rumble under as the label states, ‘rhythmical chopped reese drones and flowing tribal grooves.’

Azkhar and the remainder of the Taiko release will be out on the 4th of December.

PREMIERE: Viiaan - Azkhar [Qeone]

synth delayed experiment, should i add the drum?

Drawing a coherent link between various influences, @geinst joins Never Late with Hiber Trace where his analog-driven productions expand and contract time and space. The clear consideration for detail combined with an essence of tight timing and drawn delays, sets the groundwork for this EP. The accompanying artwork reflects not only the music but keeps a connection to the human element, which is a common thread throughout his work. Stark rhythms take us on twists and turns with abundant drops of surprises throughout. One is only left asking: where will he take us now?

Beyond Layers arrives with a purpose we are but to discover. All there is to do is let oneself be guided by the soundscape that Gëinst creates. From the first moment we hear the intention behind every current, every beat, every silence. It envelopes us, introducing a profound space wherein which we can land and take off from, guiding us deliberately with finely tuned clicks, hums and hisses. Murmurs opens with a mélange of calmness and suspense. Building on the soft syncopated rhythms, a muted voice reminds us we are not alone. This nicely preempts Hiber Trace, the EP namesake emerging as a crisp track with a steadily evolving groove. Muted hi-hats, snares, and kicks are balanced with strong drumbeats that travel through the body, activating muscles to contract with the same frequency. Euphoria introduces yet deeper elements as though now passing through an ancestral forest. Organic sounds, resembling digeridoos and croaks like those of frogs on the forest floor, are accompanied by a surge carrying us to the next destination – Mugen, where we are greeted by a focused drum ensemble to be overtaken by stretches of lasers whispering echoes of spatial descents – until finishing as brusquely as it began. Still within the same realm, we experience the power of Labyrinth. This may be the most intricate track of the EP, summing all the previous ones into a final, powerful crescendo. Delicious drone drops preempt a soft closing allowing us to find a moment to return with a gentle landing. Exquisite.

In times of excess, there is constant pressure to cull the noise. A pressure to find those impactful releases that one really resonates with or causes some form of internal reaction. Less is more in this world, and the Russian imprint, Shurale embodies this. Since its creation in 2022, leading off with an inaugural compilation featuring Toki Fuko, Dycide, Altinbas, and A.G., the imprint has released once per year. Embodying the oft-repeated phrase, quality over quantity. 

Following a stellar Doltz release in 2024, they hand the reigns to o.utlier as he provides a master class in rhythms and textures under the guise of his forthcoming ‘Numina’ ep. Four tracks, each with a distinct personality and flow. Tensions rise and fall throughout, as there is never a stale moment, the musical elements constantly evolving and giving movement.

Impulse to Obey is the proverbial shot across the bow, a taste of what is to come. Heavy synth leads set the tone, they pop and crackle around a steady bass line. There’s a certain weight to these elements that brings the track up a level, and ratchets the tension higher and higher as the track progresses.

Numina will be released on the 12th of December.
