Hailing from Sydney, Australia, artist Pannotia, under the Pure Space label, is releasing a five-track EP titled "Cell." This EP will be available on Bandcamp from 2nd May and immediately captivates with its own twang. This sound exists within a multitude of spaces, specifically in a realm called ‘Biozone’ in which this track is titled.

The music evokes a feeling of being recharged, discovering movements and forms that have always existed within but are now imbued with cosmic influence. Bionic and poetic, it offers an undeniably sexy slow groove that holds a special place on the dance floor, built upon bass-heavy foundations and a seductive, relaxed trance – a track capable of transporting us in any direction as it draws to a close.

PREMIERE: Pannotia - Biozone [Pure Space]

The sky overcast, the air a bit chilly and flecked with an occasional rain drop. Spring is looking a bit subdued at the moment here in Brooklyn. All being said, there is still an energetic feeling when walking through the city and seeing the evening come alive with the comings and goings of a million people.

Like a perfect soundtrack to a night time ride through New York, Margaux Gazur’s forth-coming LP on Smallville gives feelings of introspection albeit with a bit of a twist. Through deft use of softer melodic pads, and interesting percussive patterns, Margaux keeps things fresh and lends an edge to a familiar auditory locale.

Su Phu, coming at C1 on the double vinyl release (digital as well, so don’t worry there) starts as a dark, rolling affair, with crunching textured sounds panning around rhythmic bass lines that persist throughout. As the track progresses, bright melodies come into play to lighten the mood and even contribute to a dynamic, ever shifting groove that constantly keeps your attention pinned.

Margaux Gazur’s Blurred Memories LP will be released out into the world on May 23rd.

PREMIERE: Margaux Gazur - Su Phu [Smallville]

Italian duo Orion are back, consistently offering their trademark warmth. This release on Dutch label Far Blue is another testament to their talent and deep love for what they do, and a perfect third release for this community-driven label. The EP will be available to purchase in vinyl and digital formats at the end of April.

The opening track on the EP, Her, evokes a whimsical, warm, and delicate aura of calm introspection, the track builds with hollow, immersive percussive elements, creating a neat and uplifting groove. Its slow pace and cosmic touch deliver a reassuring sense of well-being, that feeling where you stop for a second, and realise everything is going to be alright. Their laid-back personalities mirror the calm, collected nature of their music.

This track portrays just one corner of their repertoire, as the rest of the EP explores the range of these two talented Italian producers. You’re in for a treat.

PREMIERE - Orion - Her [Far Blue]

Much like a being gliding through a dimly lit forest, smoothly shifting between the trees, and branches. Never once announcing themselves, or giving undue attention to itself until necessary. The aptly named Hunter builds and builds tension ever so higher before giving way in the final moments where all eyes shine on the scene ahead. Through deft use of chimes, flutes and guttural melodic growls, the atmosphere is kept to that of an untamed land, fraught with excitement and the unknown. With all elements elevated by the choice of a half-time tempo, adding rhythm and a delightful sense of energy.

Though the moniker may be new, the artists behind it are no stranger to the scene or Delayed. Vand and !nertia have joined forces under Vanertia for a four track release titled Kronicles, forthcoming as the latest chapter on the lovely Alpenglühen imprint. Both artists' sounds are represented well here, with Vand bringing his signature dubbed out vibes, that compliment, and are expounded on by !nertia’s more atmospheric and hypnotic moods.

Be on the lookout for Vanertia’s ‘Kronicles’ release on vinyl via Alpenglühen on July 18th.

PREMIERE: Vanertia - The Hunter [Alpenglühen]

Mantras, repetitive actions, as words, and sounds, all have a similar effect on one's body. To recenter and provide space for introspection. From the physical to mental the benefits ring true, all supported at the core by a steady framework of inhaling and exhaling.

Expanding on these concepts, the latest compilation by French imprint ‘Just Breathe’ continues their devotion to experimental and avant-garde music. As the label states, ‘In Echoes, each track is conceived as a distinct resonance of a common breath. That breath is the label's core - a free space where different sensibilities meet, unconstrained by genre, yet guided by a clear vision: one of atmospheric, emotional, and deeply immersive music.’

Module X33 from label head, Möhne Seide begins with a heavy rhythmic base, the aptly named track filled to the brim with modularized textures that lend movement and a sense of unpredictability. Progressing on, drone-like melodies start to emerge that give space, and elevate the track to a crescendo of ethereal, melancholic voices.

Seide’s ‘Module X33’, and in turn the rest of the ‘Echoes’ compilation is available now at Bandcamp.

Echoes

PREMIERE: Möhne Seide - Module X33 [Just Breathe]

Raucous rumblings and club centered grooves are the name of the proverbial game today as we premiere the latest from English imprint, Crescent London. The four tracker adeptly displays a wide array of auditory scope from a duo known as Abstract man. Ranging from the half-time thematic opening through to a thumping finish, it’s a well rounded release that works in many situations.

Flux, the title track of the release, brings the energy up a notch with steady percussion and bouncing saw-like synths that seem to shift and move through the beginning of the tune. Progressing on, a dark growl starts to emerge providing an aggressive edge that persists and compliments an atonal siren element.

Flux and the rest of Abstract Man’s release will be released on August 1st.

PREMIERE: Abstract Man - Flux [Crescent London]

Rain falls here in Brooklyn as time marches on and the changing of seasons creeps ever so closer. The long days of summer wane, fall will soon be upon us. With the shift in seasons, comes a move inside, and for many, a period of recovery from a hectic summer season. Rosario Piscosquito aka Vidění’s forthcoming album ‘Ocean Resonance’ on Ambient Matter marks their second release on the Indefinite Pitch sub-label and the first of this year. 

From cover to cover, Piscosquito expertly guides listeners through a variety of musical realms, maintaining a certain gravitas and crafting a coherent story from beatless to beat, and back again, with each track building on what came before. Refracted Light, our premiere for today sits early in the album but gives a teaser to what lies ahead. Intricate drum patterns and tribalistic bongos scattered throughout lay the foundation for ethereal pads and subtle melodies that continue to unfold for the duration of the track.

Refracted Light and the rest of Vidění’s Ocean Resonance release will be out on September 15th, and we highly recommend checking out the rest of the album.

PREMIERE: Vidění - Refracted Light [Ambient Matter]

Hannover-based  platform Synergie has been a steady contributor to the techno scene for the past 5 years. Birthed as a label & party series, they later began hosting track premieres & launched a mix series called Syncast which has over 270 episodes. The platform has an emphasis on the rawer, faster, groovier side of things & they really have their finger on the pulse for what’s bubbling up underneath the surface in their corner of techno. 

Up next on their label is an EP from Tommaso Arcuri, a producer from Empoli, Italy, a town on the outskirts of Florence. The release features 6 high-energy rollers that fit like puzzle pieces into different moments throughout the night. ‘Veleno Per La Mente III’ has this crystalline ear candy sound that starts right at the very beginning of the track & repeats throughout as a rhythmic accent. That little sound immediately reminded me of something from a sci fi movie, akin to a Star Wars blaster or a door of an air lock slamming shut. It’s the real hook of the track & your ear never tires of it. It almost feels like you can reach out & grab it out of thin air. The more you listen, the more it draws you into a state of eyes-closed hypnosis. 

‘Veleno Per La Mente’ is available on Synergie on October 24th.

PREMIERE: Tommaso Arcuri - Veleno Per La Mente III [Synergie]

Not one, not two, not three, not four, our premiere for the day comes via the 11th album from a trio known as Elektro Guzzi. Based out of Vienna, the band has built an impressive catalog of instrument driven electronica that grabs your ear and doesn’t let go. For over a decade they’ve been honing the sound, and precision necessary to excel, rare is an electronic band like this, and rarer still a club forward one. 

Liquid Center, from cover to cover showcases the breadth of their productions, from thumping peak time techno, to moody downtempo. Hitting all the stops in between. Rhythmic percussion and warm bass lines provide the base for most of this release. Each track building and building, highlighting the slight variations that can only come from a human source. Such a treat.

Solar, appearing towards the end of the album, provides a slow, chugging, groovy vibe. Carried by crisp percussion, the track develops with a restrained attitude, element after element. Steady on, steady on. Nonchalantly swelling with melody in a few peak moments before dissolving gracefully into its base components.

Solar, and in turn Liquid Center will be released on October 24th.

PREMIERE: Elektro Guzzi - Solar [Palazzo Records]

Super Enjoy. A relatively new label on the scene, this crew is moving from Singapore to the world. With seven strong releases since the start of 2024, they've already well and truly shaped their sound and forged a prominent position in Asia and on dancefloors across the globe. Their diverse, yet distinct, style spans smoked-out, dub-infused house and techno, and playful breaks, featuring works from artists like Bongoman, emanon, Sigmoid FM, Kross Section, and Dexter Colt.

Dexter Colt is a dedicated selector, whose passion for digging up and platforming new sounds is in plain sight with his work on Singapore’s Darker than Wax and Super Enjoy. He's on a mission to discover music daily and bring emerging artists to the forefront - and it's time we do the same for him. He's no stranger to NYC, the home of Delayed, where he regularly joins Marco Weibel’s monthly Darker Than Wax show on the city’s The Lot Radio, hosting guests whose styles and energies span all corners of the music scene.

Today we’re highlighting a new track of his ‘The Sleeper Must Awaken’, off the Super Enjoy co-founder’s debut solo EP, ‘Mesmeric’. And mesmeric is a perfect word for the track. It’s dancefloor-focused with a hypnotic pull, an ambient touch, and deep, dusty, levitating basslines. Every track on the EP oozes personality. This is a refreshing new discovery, and definitely one to keep a close eye on for home listening or to get people moving.

‘Mesmeric’ is released digitally on October 24th.
